Scammers

Those of us, who have the misfortune to fall victim to scammers and dishonest players here on lioden know what an awful experience it is and how helpless and crummy it makes you feel. From the old SB instead of GB trick in trades, never being paid for that cub you reserved, not getting your lioness back from a 'free studding' getting your lions that you reserved only to find they are almost starved to death, never getting that cub or item you half or fully paid for upfront or high scale scams like the GMO cows.

I want lioden to install a system that allows others to be warned of known dishonest players. Because lets be honest here, if they are going to treat people like that they should not be here.

I was thinking of a Trade feedback system Like Trademe (www.trademe.co.nz), where when a trade is completed, the user can select an icon relevant to their trade experience, and provide feedback, which would go to the "player feedback" area maybe next to news?

And maybe also, so people cant make up bullocks about people being dodgy, the ability to have a "Sales related' folder and to check a 'send to sales folder' box for messages to provide proof if needed because if you're like me you tend to loose all those important messages <.<

To avoid people trading to themselves, user feedback would consist of Total Trades: Total Unique ID Trades or something similar to show that its not just from themselves.

Users may also gain achievements from being a good trader or trade titles.

I know this could be hard to implement, but I think it would REALLY help cull out dishonesty on this game! Too many good people get ripped off. Before anyone says this is targeting, it's That players conscious decision to wrong someone especially repeat offenders
There's no real excuse for it. Especially if they KNOW that people can see they are dishonest.

I dont care if it's something as simple as you messaged a scammer and you get a notification saying "Warning; this player has repeat dishonest offences, proceed at your own risk" Just something needs to be done

Suggestions:

SadieWitch #37350

create a log of all the trades you have done? Meaning you have dates, usernames and IDs and what was trades to them in a neat little log much like what we have on the spending of our SB and GB.

I think this is a good start to stopping people from abusing the loopholes that the Trade Center. I'd defiantly like to see something implemented to cut down on the amount of people abusing the system because they know they can get away with it.

Exactly Winter :) If not this system then SOMETHING needs to put into place to stop dishonesty occurring.

Theres so many good people on lioden who deserve a better community.

This is an excellent idea. I hate how the ToS basically says "we won't punish people who knowingly do the SB instead of GB scam." That really gets on my nerves how players like that can just go around and (technically) steal things just because the trade owner mistakenly accepted their offer or set the wrong buyout price.

I like this idea and I support it

My suggetion to this is why not go the extra mile and create a log of all the trades you have done? Meaning you have dates, usernames and IDs and what was trades to them in a neat little log much like what we have on the spending of our SB and GB.

MUCH support! ^^

Something similar is needed, because the current anti-targeting rule means that scammers can operate with near total anonymity, as no one is allowed to warn other players in a relatively effective manner, for fear the scammer sees the thread and is hurt by the comments .-.

Support.

But if someone really wanted to, they could still give you a bad review though.

I know right Bilby!!!

It's perfectly okay for those people to actively, and often repeatedly rip off honest players.

Yet when the victims try make others aware of the scammer, the scammer has protection. I understand its to prevent everyone going for blood. But it still seems unfair that they can continue thier misdeeds without being known. Its not a mistake, or an accident. The are purposely choosing those actions. I was always told actions have consequences.

Seria,

They could give you a bad review. It does happen sometimes even on sales sites like ebay and trademe ect.

But if you have the messages ect, you could click 'appeal' or something like that or simply in response to the feed back post the messages /proof.

I get the not wanting it to degenerate into a total witch hunt (the lioden community has already proved it can get nasty, with the issues with special lionesses and the Gold Panther thing from months back) but there needs to be some kind of system to warn players. When I was a newbie, I got scammed hard - out of 30GB, no less. Exclusive studdings and stat replacement my ass >.>

Person was never punished, even though they were that notorious that simply mentioning having been scammed out of X amount for something people would immediately guess who it was .-. inactive now though.

That sucks so bad Bilby :C Its weird how legit some scammers seem too!

Newbies are especially at risk, because they think that they are being helped out, especially when they dont have the SB/GB for studdings so are offered traditional and never see their lionesses again.

But thats such bullshit D; And exactly why we need SOMETHING in place to warn people.

Even if you messaged them and you got a notification saying "Warning; this player has repeat dishonest offences, proceed at your own risk"

Tried to do something like what Raid?

If you were naming and shaming scammers they do delete it to 'protect' them.
