Scams Allowed?
Posted: July 14th, 2007, 8:17 pm
Okay so I read the Submissions FAQ, and it clearly states...
I first took that to mean that Scams are not acceptable Submissions at all, but on re-reading it, I'm not sure if it only means that Scams are fine, so long as you call a spade a spade, and correctly say it is a "scam".
This belief was confirmed when I saw on the UO forums, several submissions of scams, followed by Admin saying "Can premium members say Yay or Nay", like these...
House Scam
Scam on OSI
But now, today, I see this thread where a moderator replies to a scam submission saying that Tault doesn't do Scams, and requesting lock on the thread.
So, I'm completely confused. Personally I would just go through and say "Nay" to all scams posted for my game, as I am not interested in scamming other people out of their stuff so I can get ahead. However, they aren't my rules, and I don't want to enforce my moral stance on everyone else... so, what's the real story with scams?
Do NOT POST SCAMS and call them "exploits", "get money fast", or "how to screw noobs out of theyre moneys". The thread will be locked...
