Scammer on my server...
twitch.tv/mdogg2005
what if, he is just trolling the /map /team /say chat and not really “scamming” people?
would he still get a suspension?
Trolling has no place here

Sounds good. I already did that but I guess I can do it again.

no need to do it again. They will get to it when they do. When they answered the first one and then come across the second one, it will just slow everything down.
Could you care to explain how this works?
Is he just asking the noobs to mail him gold and he’ll mail them the “boosters”?

No. There’s no such item as these boosters. Any EXP boosters there are are account-bound and do not grant 100% or 400% exp. So he is telling noobs or ignorant players that they can get these awesome boosts.
And since most new players that he preys off of only have like maybe 20s – 1g, and does this a few times per hour in every zone, he’s been taking in 50-100g a day (he’s very open about his ‘earnings’) from new players – which is in some cases all of that player’s money.
The amount he’s making off players is irrelevant though. The fact remains that he’s obtaining money by promising items to players that they never get. Scamming is scamming – regardless of how much is made from the scam.
Edit: a new player who had just gotten a main character to level 80 fell for this, payed 18g for 2 of these 400% boosters to level an alt to 80 within a matter of 2 hours. Obviously the guy took the 18g and put the “buyer” on ignore, and didn’t send him anything.

I’ve seen either this guy or a similar one in the Henge of Denravi server advertising quick leveling. People were calling him out as a scammer but I guess people need to screenshot chat and report also.
ANet needs a place you can type in a short description when you report someone for something that doesn’t fit their regular report system.

There is no ingame option to report scamming. Create a support ticket with the screenshots, name of player and server and approx time and they’ll deal with him.

There is a scamming option, but their in-game report system needs tweaking to allow more options, a description box, or both.

Better people fall for a scam and lose all of there virtual currency than have to learn that lesson in the real world. If you keep babying people they aren’t going to learn how to look after themselves.
The only real issue I see is thakittens annoying spam. Report for spamming and maybe block him, done. Let the gullible learn their important life lesson.
Edit: Huh that crazy word filter again, randomly censoring parts of everyday words.
Too bad I have a conscience and hate to see other players get ripped off. I put in a ticket for their sake, the rest is up to them. I have reported him but I will not block him to ensure if I see him spamming map chat about selling his boosters I can warn people.
Thanks for the input.

I have a conscience as well. I want to see people lose their couple minutes/hours of in game currency so that they can learn their lesson, rather than learning their lesson after getting scammed for hundreds/thousands/more of their real money… and I would much more like to see some scammer’s earnings being measured in pretend money, than actual money.
This is an important lesson that some people have to learn.
This is what happens when you don’t add a trade option
I won’t name him or post screenshots, but I do have screenshots and I want this guy banned and I want this scamming BS to stop. What do I need to do to make that happen? Where do I need to send in these screenshots?
Please send those screenshots to the support.
Thanks for your help!
