Whats the point in this?

 

Edit.

 

Staff can track trade signs, and all transactions. So if he does plan to do this, he will be caught out.

Also, What is the point in this thread? Im curious.

 

he seemed like a heavy lotto player. I bet he lost everything in lotto. This is one of the main reasons your money will never be returned. In order to do so, andrew would have to generate money out of thin air, inflating the economy (and taking up his time). The money Altabyte borrowed is out there in the economy in other lotto player's balances, we can't just duplicate it.

This is a lesson to be careful who you loan money to. Many times in the past, people have taken a lot of loans in order to play lotto. This is almost guaranteed to end in disaster and you should avoid this situation.

 

I wouldn't be worried about this. When you file a complaint, staff track the scam values that a felon has been racking up so that when the offender wishes to appeal, he/she will have to answer for it all.

As for compensation, staff can only encourage the offender to pay off his/her debts. Staff can not reimburse you. Otherwise, that in and of itself could be a scam.

 

The point is very clear. he is asking for the money to be returned to the victims. but it shouldn't be.

 

I understand.

 

I know altabyte i skyped him quite abit i know he did not scam with intent to the loans just caught up with him like i figured they would and tans he did not lose it all in lotto instead he bought things like ereps and pres instead of paying off loans which was a really bad choice imo.

He will prolly appeal just be patient staff wont refund you no matter what
My friend was scammed out of an eff7 by a permabanned user who has no
Chance to appeal so he will never be paid back thats why it is very important
to be smart about who you buy from or loan to.

 

He asked for 100k
Said he would pay back 140k
Paid back 0

Idk If this is what u wanted but here

 

You should always decide for yourself if a person is trustworthy. Don't listen only to what other people say. Do a little investigation on the forums. Check out if they have had complaints or bans in the past, what went on. You could follow up with the people invovled in the complaints. Did they get paid back? How long did it take?

It's also a good idea to constantly browse the complaints section, and to pay attention to the forums, and in-game activity just to keep in touch with what is going on around EcoCityCraft, how people are doing, and what kinds of things people are prone to. That way when you do decide to engage in some type of business, you have ideas of people in mind that you've been paying attention to for awhile.

 

That in a way is still putting money in the economy, because you save money. You don't need to spend it.

If you made the choice to do a loan to someone, or w/e business you agreed to, you alone agree to the risk. You have to be prepared if things go south. That is what responsibility is. EcoCityCraft did not agree to the risk. EcoCityCraft did not make you or anyone engage in a business deal that could be prone to loss. EcoCityCraft can not insure you for the decisions you make, and the losses you may sustain.

 

So your saying people arent scammed in the real world either?
What you want to use your money for is totally up to you but you used it to lend it to someone that could well scam you.
Surely that is the lessons learnt for all you guys?

Dont give someone a loan especially if they already have loans and contracts existing.

If i was going to give someone a loan (even though id rather throw my money away as chances are your getting scammed) i certainly wouldnt give it to someone who already has multiple loans to repay, i feel bad for your guys but its a little naive to go and give someone more money when he already owes multiple people money.
Seems dumb without sounding harsh...
