Joe, for you, here are five easy steps into recovery: 1) Stop whining. You're not the only person in he world that has ever been scammed or lost party hats or even millions of gp. 2) Report that scammer to Jagex. It may not be as powerful as God but I don't think scamming at Runescape has ever been a valid reason for ending up in Hell. 3) Take a break. I know, you've worked so hard for your Runescape fortune but seriously, take a break. Give it some time, you'll feel better in a couple of weeks. Time heals. 4) After your break, if you decide to come back, please do warn us of this "new" scam. Even if you fell for a noobish scam, remember, errare humanum est. 5) If you really return, choose your friends carefully. Runescape is like real world: you wouldn't trust just anyone in real world, would you? The same applies to Runescape. 'nuff said. Edit: I hate the world filter here...
