Alright so first order of business is I would like it to be known that Felix/son/r- has made an official scam using IRC.
He scammed a person named Lazarith out of a singing ball using illegal means. (irc)
You can find the thread located here which has already been a long vulgar debate as it is, from which I would not dare post in this thread.
Be warned there is a lot of profanity in the following thread:
http://forum.uosecondage.com/viewtopic.php?f=26&t=10327
Furthermore I would like to add that I have done some deals with Felix and they were successful. I am not trying to slander his trading reputation I am just making it known that he has scammed before using illegal means. So that others may take extra precautions when dealing with felix/son/r- .
Felix if you respond to this keep it clean and respectable or it will most likely be removed.

Yeah and I include that on my shops website that all the armor is fully repaired but not all the weapons are repaired and you have to find your own means of repairing them.
Yes, because whenever I visit a vendor in UO, I make sure to try and google first and see if that person has a random website somewhere telling me to except some items to be broken.
Again, this has nothing to do with IRC/forum scamming. Take it somewhere else please.

You are a moron.
Also I won one of your auctions and you did not sell to me, so I guess Joshua Lee is a known scammer.

I never specified the rules and it was not an auction, and it was already sold by the time you posted.

Fair enough, I have been accused and I have defended myself. End of story.

You got the story all wrong
I query for sale at 1m, 1.5 and agree at 2m.
He brings ball to vesper vendor, puts it on vendor for 20m.
I tell him in irc that im not paying 20m, and sit waiting *ON MY TAILOR* (who has all the gold) by vendor.
He does not change price, so I pk him *ON MY TAILOR* with para, ex, para, ex eb.
I loot his stuff and log off.
Later on hes crying in irc, and i tell him newbie, 1st off these items are blessed so theres no way I have it. Well later I log on and notice that indeed I had it inside his reg pouch. Putting blessed item in pouch = fail. Pking on a tailor out of frustration != scam.
Later on Josh says "drop it" now this.

I think we should lay off the personal attacks and simply use this Topic as intended. If you feel like you are scammed. voice it. If you need to defend yourself, do so.
Dont resort to name calling, flaming, trolling, etc. please. This is a worthwhile topic to have.

I know other freeshard forums have done this in the past and I think it would be a helpful tool for conducting business via forums or irc.
Granted this isn't just a huge pain in the ass to add in, what would be the way for me to go about officially requesting this with open debate available to all forum patrons? I don't know whether or not this would fit under under Suggestions & Era Accuracy, being that it isn't directly related to the game mechanics.

Trading Post forums is likely a better place for this

Yeah that would be fine, my first guess was to move it there but there is only the four genres, buying selling price check and vendors so I wasn't sure where it would fit exactly.

This will probably devolve into a contest of who has more friends that're willing to click Thumbs Up or Thumbs Down or something. In reality, people's own judgment and research in scanning over the previous posts, etc., might be a more reliable way of finding trustworthy folks to deal with.
