Vend scammers alot of times success with scamming and dont get banned for some time

Whine is not your friend but it softens you. Try to move on and be a precaution person

Be cautious and vigilant at all times. Try msging a moderator if he/she is on or just use /report command or wrench the player to report.

When you do /report or /msg a visible moderator (online with /mods) they will ban the world and the owner of it. /report and leave. That's all there is to it.

Didn't you know that vend scamming isn't even a scam?

A moderator DOES NOT ban things like overpriced items e.g. Surgical tools 1/14 instead of 14/1.

But they DO ban things like false advertising. "New magplant" even though it's not.


This is because consumers should be aware of what they are buying and it's not their responsibility.

This is correct. I'm sure this thread was talking about the second one, not the first one. Just make sure to always recheck the prices. Better safe than sorry.

This has been mention by NekoRei and I was pretty sure everyone was aware of this but not anymore.

People just apply ”scam” for basically anything illegal in the game. As pointed out, vend ”scams” aren’t really tricking you, they make you trick yourself and you should look at what you’re buying. I do think that this should in some sense be punished though?

[LegendOfHish]

i bet most of the replys that vend scams are not illegal and they are just overpriced are scammers themselfs no offense, The world owner tricks u, for now the overpriced items doesnt exist anymore because of the vend warmup, but what they do now they bring really weird items that not many players know and might look cool on the first look and he tricks you and says its "20wls" and trys to sell it for 3 or 4 wls, while the actual price is 20/1 basicly the owner is doing false claims about the items, he is claiming it to be an more expensice than it is, (manipulating item price in some cases) not just this is illegal but its very bad for the community because i myself know alot of players who quitted because vend scams, first we fixed the old vend scam and put a vend delay now players are manipulating prices and yet unexperienced players says its not illegal and players should becareful of what they are buying, most of the players that goes to those worlds are either desperate noobs that wants wls or Noob pros who only have dls and doesnt know anything in the game,

They do ban these 1/14 surg tool worlds. I know someone who got a 30 day ban for that after I reported him.

People blaming the victims kind of make me think they're scammers themselves
