queenbee3110 Posted June 24, 2006 Share Posted June 24, 2006 Lost 2.2m in one of the most common scams (but mostly my fault, if not completely)... So, there I was, merchanting, as usual, in the east corner of fally world 2. Level 3 pops up, buying with 4.4m. Yeah, obvious scam. So I trade, he offers the full money on my zammy (shock! horror!) I think: Definately a scam. So I go through with the trade, so I can report and make sure no-one gets hurt by the scam (because I'm too idiotic for my own good :roll: ). But, to my horror, my mouse stuck, and ended on 'accept' instead of 'decline' (I was already on the second page) So I message him, politely asking (by my standards) if I can have my stuff back for extra money. No such luck, (hey, it was a long shot), and I've lost 2.2m Yeah, basic scam, I know. Hell, stupidity gets the better of us all sometimes. Just make sure you keep your mouse clean!

JordanPhio Posted June 24, 2006 Share Posted June 24, 2006 Just don't trade what you know is a scam. You'll never lose anything then. Just let somone else report him for you. Oh yea, Infa red mouses don't stick I hate signatures. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

andydageeza123 Posted June 24, 2006 Share Posted June 24, 2006 You see, this is what i hate about the forum people - you all start flaming someone because they were trying to catch a scammer red-handed so he would be lost from the game. I know hundreds who do this, it was just bad luck. perhaps if you read this post, subconciously you'll go out and buy a new infra-red mouse or go against your first instincts to trade an obvious scammer with a conventional mouse. And queenbee, did you report him? My first ever sig wewt! (worst face ftw?)Wish me luck with the fire cape ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zyx Posted June 24, 2006 Share Posted June 24, 2006 then do what i do, have 1 pair of recharce'able batteries in the mouse, and another pair ready. When changing batteries, recharge the empty pair so you always have another pair. _Because its not fun when fighting some high level monster, barrows, kbd, kq when you need new batteries :lol: Best/latest drop list:Rune: 18th of june 2006 [scimmy]Other: 6th of June 2006 [3 half keys, T] 26th of june 2006 [yellow mystic hat] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

meb Posted June 24, 2006 Share Posted June 24, 2006 I paid 45k for an iron battle axe because I wanted to be smart :P . Sorry for the 2.2m though... Retired 2146 overall - 136 combat - 6 skillcapes Plus I think the whole teenage girl thing will end soon (hopefully), because my girlfriend is absolutely in love with him(she is 18), and im beginning to feel threatened by his [Justin Bieber] dashing looks.

RedHanyu888 Posted June 24, 2006 Share Posted June 24, 2006 Keeping just a mouse clean won't keep it from sticking. Clean the mouse pad too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
saam007 Posted June 24, 2006 Share Posted June 24, 2006 Just make sure you keep your mouse clean! Thats why there are optical mice or laser mice. then do what i do, have 1 pair of recharce'able batteries in the mouse, and another pair ready. When changing batteries, recharge the empty pair so you always have another pair. _Because its not fun when fighting some high level monster, barrows, kbd, kq when you need new batteries :lol: Thats why I bought My Logitech G7. have 2 battery cartridge so you never have to stop playing.
