New "hunter bow" scam?

Recommended Posts

Honestly, the name of the bow is RIGHT ON THE FRONT PAGE.

 

 

 

But like someone said earlier, there is people who want to sell rares for lots of money in the wilderness.

 

 

 

You think everything reads the front page? The number of times I've seen "where u get dat itum" I reply with "From the new quest" only to see "wat new quest"...

 

When I see those people, I hit them with a stick.*points to my sig*

ouch to that.

 

 

 

OT: I saw someone make a thread just after the bow saying 'selling a new longbow' In the body he wrote that he was selling a newly fletched oak longbow... post offers. he made no claims that it was a darkbow, didn't even mention a selling price and people were bidding 20m+ funniest thing i've ever seen.

It is so sad to see scamming still going on in RS, I quit in Jan after exactly 1 yr of playing, and started playing a different game, I have never seen a scam in the new game, RS needs Auction Houses, why do they still not have a proper method to sell items after being out for so long.

 

 

 

If they made a MOD like Auctionner for wow then when you put your mouse over the item it tells you the rough value, also items are coloured to show the value, these are simple no brainer ideas that will stop scamming overnight, and make the game soo much better it might make some of us quiters come back.

 

 

 

The least they could do is use colour coding.

I don't understand why people believe that scamming is right if your victim is stupid. Isn't that like throwing someone handicapped off his wheelchair and watch him crawl?

 

No, it isn't.

 

Firstly, the victims in the 'scamming' case get to choose whether or not they want to buy the hunter bow, or even read the topic, while in the wheelchair example the person is pushed off.

 

Secondly, in the 'scamming' case the dumb idiot is choosing not to read the front page, and choosing not to double-check the name of the bow. In the wheelchair example, the handicapped person's predicament isn't because of his own laziness or bad choices.

 

Therefore, it's more like showing a page reading 'Climb off if you want to' to a person that's in a wheelchair because he fell asleep with a cigarette and it burnt his leg (or something).

There is no weapon called "hunter bow". These are probably just honest players selling dark bows, but calling them hunter bows.

 

 

 

EDIT: Turns out that there is a hunter cbow.

 

 

 

I have found and reported the post.

 

 

 

Hmm how you do report a post i dont know how...

Excuse, I must be extra stupid today but.... What's a hunter bow? I know there's a dark bow but....

 

 

 

:x

 

 

 

But, despite what people say, scamming is always wrong. Even if you scam a scammer. Two wrongs DO NOT make a right.

Since when are people not able to read the update page ? unless they are blind, and wouldn't play runescape, everyone can read the updates. Therefore this can IN NO WAY be compared to throwing an handicapped person on the floor because he CAN NOT get up even if he tried all he could.

 

And it doesn't make scamming right, it just makes the scammed an idiot and not worthy of any grief.

I agree it's probably foolish to play the game without looking at updates. However, it doesn't mean that stupid people deserve to be punish for their stupidity. If anything, we should feel bad for them for not being as smart as the rest of us, not trying to take advantage of their stupidity.
