Sigh, I don't get why people care so much that they would scam. I've had people buy stuff from me, and then scam from someone else. It doesn't make sense, why didn't they try to scam me, but scammed someone else. Then I feel really guilty for giving trader score. =(

I really don't understand why people scam as well. I expected people to scam in neo because the majority are dirt poor for 10 years, but never here. People here have the ability to make their wildest dreams come true and don't reek of desperation. I think people do what you just mentioned scam high-end "things" of high intrinsic value from people by building up their trader score then attacking when people feel relaxed. It makes me shed a tear.

Excellent advise and timing, I was just beginning to look at trading.

Thank you for posting this topic.

i dont get how it could possibly work. Take it for instance that you are buying SuAP, if you were offering a thousand real np. would you even risk offering 1k real neopoints to scam the SuAP, knowing very well that getting the money back may not be successful. personally i would not as the possible loss is too great. I would only offer 1k real np if i am willing to part with that money and do a none-scam trade.

Might be different for you guys but that is how i feel.

The last post was made on Feb 25th... so why should you reading the "whole post" make the question any less uncalled for. Check the recent announcements and you will see that the Trader Score is still down but, much like the Program Manager, when it is made available again there will be an update to recent announcements or a new announcement entirely.

At least i didn't go and make a status update about it.

Funny.... ive managed to update peoples trade scores with no problems using google chrome. Firefox is a bitch. The last trade i made was a couple of days ago.

I just tried again and still can't submit but I am using Firefox. I'll try Chrome out when I get home and see if that works now.

Actually, rather than get smart with me, it turns out the issue is that the user I traded with is now banned for scamming/suspicious activity. So that would explain the issue with Firefox and Chrome.

I was just trying to reply back in the same manner you would reply to me. Without all the sugar coating.

I'm sorry for your loss though.

I didn't get scammed, they bought from me. So... I'm not actually hurting here.

ill listen to the moderator and spam some more hahaa... No but im sorry... Off topic i know...

But ok so trading works on CHROME but not on firefox... sounds like you guys are being racist.

Also, consider that many paypal payments can be charged back. It's something you really have to consider when trading with non-trusted users.

From what I know (which could be outdated cx), you just need to be a member for a week until you can see the Trading Post forum ^__^

Oi, guessing the rating system still isn't fixed? :x Just tried on Chrome and Firefox and both didn't work.

[Zaxero]

Hmm why would people trade on here instead of neopets? Are there advantages to trading on here? Or just more ways to get scmmed?

Ps sorry if any of my posts have spelling errors. My wireless keyboard doesn't have the best connectiity and I can't be bothered to fix every little mistake it makes. Thanx guys!

Connectivity* see!
