Anyway, yes. Scamming is not RPing in the least. Doing it by trade tables is most likely just like, pressing cancel then accept just before the other guy clicks accept (thus meaning your side is empty, so you trade nothing for their stuff), which is clicking buttons, not trading. You can't RP your things just magically vanishing but the other person still handing his over, he wouldn't do it in an IC situation. Not using the trade tables to trade isn't RPing either, because the thief ISNT AN RPER. Stealing things denotes taking another person's possessions without their willingness (and without them knowing, more often than not). In game, the way people scam you is for you to lay your items on the ground and they pick it up and run. If you call GIVING them your items (because you're too stupid to use trade tables) RPing, then, well, GO TO HELL* o_o

No cyrin, you are not already in hell. You're in brussels, which is close, but no omlettes
Final note: People who get scammed have only themselves and the scammers to blame. They are themselves to blame for being too stupid to use trade tables, or to use them safely and carefully. The scammers are to blame because these scammers are lamers for taking advantage like that. Noone else is to blame, noone else should have to give a rat's tail about it other than the staff who should go and spank the scammer (if there is proof, of course).
