Fix the tables.
 

Okay, i'm very unpleased because of this. I bought a scroll of literacy, and someone wanted to buy it. We went to the trading tables. I accidenlty laid down a scroll, i didn't noticed, he said
"Don't try to scam me", i said sorry, wrong item, laid Lit above it, then clicked cancel and only laid Literacy. He lays down the 600 plats, i press confirm, and suddenly the plats and my scroll are gone and the other guy had them! This is insane, fix this. I don't demand my scroll or the 600 plats, (even though it would be nice to get one of them) but atleast fix this so it doesn't happen to others.

What is the problem? You gave him a free scroll, that's not the fault of the trading table. Zell2003 did not lay down any plats. May be he faked it somehow, since I see that he got free items from other people too (20k plat from Owilson) ? But I don't want to make him down without knowing the circumstances, would be good if both sides could write down their opinion/view.

I guess you're right, Stefan. It's mainly because he called me a scammer what annoyed me very much, but because i heard so many bad things about the tables, i thought it was an error. Guess he just faked it x.x

Hm... but how? Holding plats above the table won't show the number, as far as I remember... °° Then again, holding some item for others to place plats sounds like it would work, if the one with the money accepts first and the other acts fast.

its easy to just accept without putting anything down. -_-

Yes, but how would you fake an amount of plat, not just a single coin, without dropping it?

I know it's possible to fake weapons...

Just make sure you right click the weapon everytime.

Lay an item under another item to make it the like the item with greater value would have a larger quantity. Someone tried to do that to me :grrr:

He held the plat above the table, and i clicked "accept". He didn't drop the plats, quickly clicked "accept" and i lost my scroll of literacy. He bought the scroll for a newbie... Really good to show newbies how to scam.
