nobody was scammed, it wasent stealing. the player willingly gave him the 2 plat,nobody logged his account and did the trade for him ,he did it all by himself.

He didn't trade it by accident or anything, if the guy didn't think this was a ridiculous request from a new guild then LoL at him. as posted earlier in this thread take it as a learning experience and move on.

So when I tell that little old lady from Pasadena, "Hey, I've got $500,000 dollars in a Swiss bank account, but I can't get it until I pay a bank fee of $5,000 dollars.  If you give me $5,000, I'll be able to access my money and I'll give you 10% of the total, $50,000.  What do you say?"  And she actually GIVES me the money . . . and I cut and run, by your logic that's not a scam at all.  she willingly gave me the $5,000 dollars, I didn't log into her bank account and trade it for her, she did it all by herself.

She didn't trade it by accident, either, if the lady didn't think this was a ridiculous request from a person then LoL at her.  It was a learning experience, move on . . . 

Now, as was said earlier, this IS only one side of a story, and 2 plat really isn't a lot at all.  I have no idea if this story is real, if it's a troll post, or what.  But to say is ISN'T a scam?  IF this story is true (a big IF there) the guild (as in my example above) had no intention of doing what they said they were going to do.  They didn't consider him for a guild position, they took his money and ran.  It's the very definition of scam . . .

I should think that interpretation and administration of the Universal Access Agreement, the Everquest 2 Code of Conduct, and the Everquest 2 Play Nice Policy falls ultimately on the shoulders of SOE (GMs/CS, the leads, and managers). So what we (myself included) think does or does not constitute fraud or scamming is likely irrelevent. I can tell you that SOE will take deliberate misrepresentation, harassment, and the interference in others' game enjoyment seriously. While the lack of a /report may burden the investigation, it is not a lost cause. If the guild has a record of negative behavior, this could be the perverbial "nail in the coffin". The EQ2 Reimbursement policy and Code of Conduct does in fact hold guild officers and leaders responsible for actions of the guild. Joke or not, it's nothing a respectable guild should or would do.

Do either of you realize that Norrath is not real and that EQ2 is a video game? And, as I previously stated, in EQ2 a trade is a trade. The GMs have always been very clear about that.

a trade is a trade yes, but tell me what did the OP get?
