    Afterwards, he begged for 10k back for like 10 minutes constantly. Do I give him the money?

    The point in which disturbs me is when I say in a bit. I'm pretty sure I meant after the lotto, but not sure.

    Some things to consider:
    1. Ask in global chat if Crafty chips has EVER refunded people properly (he has not, and scr4ms many people)
    2. He is a president begging a resident for money
    3. You never agreed to team that lotto
    4. He is a president begging a resident for money
    5. Look at complaints section
    6. Lotto teams aren't server enforced
    7. He is a president begging a resident for money

    No, lotto teams are not enforced by server staff. As well, if you were being spammed, and have proof, you can file a complaint in the complaint section of the forum.

    After winning a $200K lottery earlier, this user asked for $10k. It's your gut feeling if you want to give $10K back.

    Nope, don't give him anything. He would never have given you anything if he had won.

    who would benefit more? a resident that joined last week, or a president that has been playing for nearly 2 years?

    I don't mind people asking for money back. However people who constantly beg for it deserve nothing, especially Craftychips.

    Don't ever give money back on lottery, it was their decision to gamble it and they lost. Furthermore, it encourages more begging if you give back.
