It's the victim's fault if one would get scammed. I personally think scamming is not a major issue, as I elaborate on my opinion, maybe you will see things differently. I can not express any stronger than the fact is, If you get scammed, It's your own fault! I only trust about 3-5 people on graal, I have known these people for long periods of time, I also have their phone number, Incase they go insane, I can bug them. Normally you can tell if someone is a scammer or not, Most people decide, Oh, But they're my friend, and I know he/she is a scammer but... I think I'm going to test my trust with him/her and show myself, and everyone else that I am friends with them. --Or something along those lines. That is one of the leading causes of scamming, Testing your trust with people. I think scamming should be legal because if your friend gets scammed and you try to scam back the items for them, You shouldn't get in trouble for it. Which will take me back to something which occured a year or so ago. Loriel was administrator of Graal Kingdoms, and Kenshin (blkeagle12) scammed Alex (Adeno) or his [Frost Shield +12?]. I, Being the good person I am, use my Ice Sword to scam it back for Alex, Which is someone I didn't even know at the time, and give it to him. I scammed kenshin over the trade tables in Bomboria, and Weeks, possibly Months later I log on and my ice sword is gone, I soon find out that Kenshin has it and loriel has edited my account and gave him my Ice Sword. Now, I am not bad talking Loriel because when blacksabbath scammed my Star Wizard Hat, Loriel restored it to me. Those who choose to let other people hold their items are fools unless you know the person extremely well, For example, Smoke or Grirahan are two of my closest friends and I would, without thinking twice, hand over all of my items to them for them to hold for me. I am also friends with Juggernaut, But I wouldn't ever give him any of my items. You see? There are ways to prevent being scammed and most of the people who are scammed are amateurs and know very little about the background of the people they are lending their items to. By a persons attitude and actions upon others you can tell whether they would scam you or not. It's hard to find trustworthy people and I suggest knowing them extremely well before just handing out your items. Scamming should be 100% legal because the owners of the items have a choice whether to hand them or out not.

Aye, well said. There are a good number of people I would and have trusted with my possesions, and Grirahan remains to be one of them, Ed another.
