Since we have the merchant feedback, which seems to just be all good sales, I wanted to make a list of known thieves, scammers, shady people, and people that are in denial about being such that are here on the PC. I'll try and update the first post with names threads, if applicable.

I considered adding him, but I've never seen where anyone came out and said that he had stolen from them or where he admitted to stealing himself. While I think he is really shady and would never do business with him myself, I don't know the truth of the situation. If you have links, please provide them.

You did business with me twice though, so I dunno why you say you didn't

The issue is this, the people I've done business with, have never flat out and said so, nor given me any positive rep in the process.

All (The majority) of people claiming I'm a thief, I've never even done business with to start with....Just like you Drew, so you calling me a thief has no grounds whatsoever. That's like me saying you are a horrible merchant and a thief too.

So, can I call you a thief too since you call me one? I mean, clearly you are a thief since others say you are, so I'm allowed to also right?

There is this thread:

http://forum.gsplayers.com/showthread.php?t=62468&page=4


I never had the vambraces when I left, as I told Paul this and another person here knows. That person, who did had the vambraces, I told to give back to Shenye when I left, or in return would give him the coin as well.

Granted, I don't remember which or the exacts were said, however that deal, when I left was secured on my end. As to whether or not the other person followed thru with it, is beyond me.

I'm guessing it never occurred since I've been accused of stealing from him too...You will have to take it up with that person, whome i gave everything else I had to before I left and who I told to finalize the thing with Shenye with or return the vambraces in either situation. I was under the impression they were returned, but clearly they were not then.


It's mildly complicated, as at that time, said person and I were sharing accounts and so forth.

It's too late for me to even attempt at explaining the whole deal, but that in the end of it all, when I left, the other person had them still and was (at least I thought) told to give them back if they didn't want to keep them, or give Shenye the other 50mil owed. At that time I was under the impression he opted to keep them and was going to give Shenye back the coin, and I think I may have even told Shenye that, but like I said this happened a bit ago and it's a bit late for me now since I work during the days

Worst case scenario he's making up this story about a friend who he supposedly gave everything to in order to steal 50 million silvers from someone.

Best case scenario he's telling the truth but still admits he made an agreement to trade robes+50 million silvers to someone for vambraces, he receives the vambraces and only hands over the robes.

I've done business with you on several occasions (and would again in a heartbeat, for the record), openly gave you credit in the merchant feedback thread, and repped you... before I realized that you routinely use multiple screen names. That might be part of the problem?

You bought them under the handle NoGnomesIsGoodNews, before you had been outed. The paypal account had a chicks name, I think Susan, attached to it. I didn't even realize you were Jukes or Kyal until days afterwards.

Winner winner chicken dinner.

If being a RL loser screw-up had an influence on GS merchanting, pretty sure Inspire would be THE WORST MERCHANT EVER (extra true with caps).


Against my better judgement I'm going to write the following and tell you the truth about my life.

I'll start by saying that I'm a very private person. I grew up a Jehovahs Witness and unless you were part of the church you were considered to be a "worldly" person and a bad person. So growing up I had no friends because I was not allowed to play with anyone outside of the church.

When I became a teenager I found Gemstone and got hooked. It was an escape from a life that I didn't agree with. I was only allowed to play for an hour here or there and spent most of my time being a twat dragging bodies out of TSC to decay and whatnot. But having a place where I could be someone different than who I was forced to be was salvation.

Eventually I got out on my own and came back to GS. I played on and off for a few years, never really making any close friends. I was part of the Trophy Room gang when Debia, Jubuls, the original Tijay, Xak, etc used to hang there.

Anyway, fast forward about 9 years from there and it brings us to last year. I guess I should also tell you that I am a 28 year old bisexual male, I'm not a girl but it's sometimes fun to play around. I have been in a relationship for 4 years now with someone I care about very deeply. Unfortunately that person had a drinking problem and it got out of control. One night he decided to swallow a tube of pills and drink himself to death. I woke up at 4am to find him barely breathing. I called 911 and they rushed him to the hospital where he stayed for awhile. He went into rehab from there and got help for his drinking problem but I wasn't alright. His suicide attempt affected me in ways that I wasn't prepared for. I became severely depressed myself and sunk into gemstone like a tick. It was getting harder and harder for me to get out of bed in the morning and I started missing more and more work. I eventually was let go, which made me sink even further into GS.

Thankfully I was able to make silvers in the game and sell them to the PC community. Had it not been for all of you, I wouldn't have made it over the last year, financially or mentally. That is also part of the reason why Myklians changing was hard on me. I was using gemstone to survive and to pay my bills. It became a full time job. When Myklians were changed I realized my life was about to become much more difficult and I freaked out. I was already in a bad place because of the suicide attempt and I no longer knew how to deal with anything.

So where does that leave me now. Unfortunately I have a drug problem. I smoke marijuana every day. I don't like taking pills to be normal, so I turned to drugs to stabilize my mood and help me feel better. Most of the time I am alright, but every now and then I turn into an ugly monster, which is what you see from time to time on lnet.

So, this is the mess that is my life. Feel free to make fun of me now in typical PC fashion. I'm sorry if I have insulted you personally. Please know that it wasn't personal if I went off on you. I have a lot of problems that I don't know how to deal with or overcome. I have become someone that I don't want to be, so I am sorry if I have affected you negatively because of it.

My rep is still positive to those who matter, was more or less what I was getting at etc.

My rep is mostly "negative" from all the band wagon kiddies who yell rip off, even though I bought nothing from them.

Those who have been yelling it, I've purchased items from and had no troubles with at all, Rogane for starters and a few others. But they'll still shout out thief even if they have never personally had any issues.

Using an alt to buy something from someone when you know damn well they don't want to do business with you definitely falls under shady merchanting practices. Inspire did this when I sold a bow I had, and widgets/gizmo/whatever did it when I sold something else, can't remember at the moment. And I wouldn't be surprised if when I was selling silvers the other week and one of the paypal transactions got reversed on me, one of you was behind the bullshit name. But, that's unconfirmed as of yet.

Just from an outsider's perspective, creating multiple handles and characters to hide your real identity is at worst an admission of guilt and an attempt to dodge the consequences. At best, it's still lying and shady. Just sayin'.

Think what you'd like but I never had the intention of playing Cata. I haven't played it either. I just wanted to get the stupid account banned.

Also, back to the topic in this thread.. I don't care if I'm on the list or not, but if you want to make it a complete list my other characters name is Rylaarn.

Back on topic you stole 70 dollars and are a thief.

Yes.. I stole 70 dollars. It was an elaborate scheme that took 3 months to fully unfold!

In that same 3 month period I made 450 dollars selling shits in gemstone that no one ever complained about. I honestly don't think it matters to the majority of people on here. I could be wrong.

The people that matter most, still do business with me, those that don't. Oh well, not really my lose in any case unless someone utterly has the one thing I would kill for...Which in the case of a text game, isn't anything really, cause well, it's fictional.

How about that time you got friendly with a few of my friends as Jukes, and then bought some daggers from me? Guess you didn't want them bad enough to create a completely different persona, get introduced to me via your new handle, and buy the daggers I never responded to you in PM about.

And then offer to sell me them back under the guise of, "how things turned out?" when you really just wanted to buy something else that was on the market at that time.

You're a lying, thieving piece of shit.

paranoid (ˈpærəˌnɔɪd)

— adj
1. of, characterized by, or resembling paranoia
2. informal exhibiting undue suspicion, fear of persecution, etc

To reiterate, for those interested...

Gizmo/Widgets/Kyal/whoever the hell else this guy is:

A) Bought SD vambraces for the agreed upon value of 100 mill, 50 was 10x HCPed robes, 50 in silvers.

B) Gives Shenye the robes, Shenye being a nice (a shame that this turned out to be at take advantage of by "Gnome-fucker" as I shall refer to him forever more), gave him the vambraces.

C) Shenye never heard from Gnome-fucker again.

D)END OF FUCKING STORY. I don't give a shit if your "friend" was suppose to pay him or not, it never fucking happened. And is probably one of your BS lies.

You may have paid Khal back the 50 mill you also were "loaned" from him at an earlier date (he's too nice of a guy to cause conflict), I will admit I am not knowledgeable on whatever happened between you two, and only heard rumors.

But, how about that whole shady ass Tsin selling thread you pulled?

Or how you keep creating pseudonyms?

Or how you always conveniently can shuffle off whatever blame someone has on you to "your friend"?

Or how about the same shit you pulled in Plat?

You're just a cheap low-rent piece of shit internet sociopath that likes to prey on this community. Who despite many of our personal differences and conflicts, generally tends to enjoy our self-policed interactions here on the PC.

I've been creeped out by the vibe I got from you from day one, and then you continue to prove yourself true time and time again.

And this is the last time I am ever going to acknowledge you exist, so consider this community warned.

Also 3 months i played never a word from you, but your friends gave me lots of shit for buying rethon, yet they are telling you I'm pretending to be you?

I think threads like this are bullshit. I'd have a different opinion if the real goal was to educate new purchasers in these here forums, but that couldn't be further from the truth.

Truth is, folks just use these type of posts to lash out. Maybe the original post had the right idea.. but much of that which followed. Lame. Same type of folks who troll other threads and drop anonymous reps on folks for offering their own silvers for an item.

My honest opinion is I play a game with an elite set of folks, people who aren't woo'd and wow'd by simple software tricks and love the story we create. Some folks sometimes have their shit all backwards and do something that isn't respectable. Certainly that crosses the line, and should be stated objectively by folks who know they fucked up.. no problem there. At the same time, folks make mistakes, and further, folks who get too much into the dollars for game items are in too deep to cast too many aspersions.

I primarily play Cyral. I'm not an uber char, but I stand by my in game actions. I stand by my posts and sales here. I've never ripped anyone off, but going off on my own has indeed landed me criticism from secretive bitches in these forums. Many of the negative backlashes are likely from the folks posting in this thread or silent folks who read it.

I'd just suggest that damn.. enjoy the game. I do. Chime in on what you feel strongly about.. fair enough. But respect folks in general.. because we are not a common lot. And if someone needs to be called out, ok.. but don't lash out on everyone like we're all a bunch of highschool teens. I imagine most of us haven't been that in a decade, on average. Truth is, to most of America, we're all a bunch of dorks given as much as we sink ourselves into this genre.

Don't like my opinion? Post here. Pussonymous rep if need be. I just think sometimes folks go too far in pressing folks.. and let that spill way out of a reasonable line of discourse.

His main identifying factor is his AIM - ownerofdabillen

He owned Rathmond for a while in prime, and a mage called Maezie. I can't remember his main rogue's name, but he sold all of them back in 2010. Both characters have since been whored out since then to many times to count and I'm not sure he has had a steady prime character for more than a month or two at a time.

I know he was looking for a rogue again in prime about a year ago: http://forum.gsplayers.com/showpost.php?p=1081209&postcount=1

But have no idea if he found anything. Last I knew he was still doing Shattered. Apparently he sold out yet again.

I won't go into details, but I wouldn't deal with the guy with any sort of cash on the line. I would only deal with the guy using EXCHANGE. If at all and I used to talk to him on AIM once in a while. Haven't heard from him in several months.

Before I go public about the incident, I am giving the merchant 3 more days (he's had 3 days already) to deliver the item. I have logs of every communication with the merchant and will post them if the item is not delivered. In the meantime, if anyone has any suggestions on what else I might do to resolve the issue, I would appreciate the input.

1) I get it, but it's only $50. Don't go running over an old lady with road rage.
2) Your lawyer can't do shit.
3) Post the PC name right away (IMO the real name too, but I could see why you might want to wait a couple days). This person is probably in the process of scamming a few other people. A $50 scam doesn't seem worth the effort to destroy a character and PC account (unless of course you sent cash to a no-name PC account, and then shame on you).

In future transactions, would it make sense to have contact with the person through their play.net address so we'd know their account name too in a scam? I know Simu wouldn't do shit, but it would it matter to a scammer if their play.net account name = scammer?

2. My question to my lawyer has to do with whether the scammer could do anything to me if I post his info. I don't see how, but I asked the question anyway.
3. I am going to wait the 3 days. After that, assuming my lawyer doesn't object, I will post everything I have.

In the future I intend to avoid cash transactions entirely (this is a rare exception anyway - I'm just trying to replace an borrowed item that I managed to lose).

I am still working through one of the issues.

I had two people contact me over AIM and give me their PC handles, which it turns out weren't the people responsible on the PC. One asked for 25m the other for 40m. I think they were either the same person or working together.

I delivered the coins and they disputed through Paypal. Based on the names given on the PC they were trustworthy folks.

So I highly encourage people to actually list a AIM name in their profile. Neither PC poster had AIM showing on their account so I couldn't verify and I didn't want to insult them by saying "prove it".

Since few of us know the character names we play or would be picking up the coins using a AIM handle listed on the PC seems like a next best choice.

They both were replying to my sale thread of coins.

Again, just taking advantage of the system that I have used for a long long time without issues. I can't begin to think of the number of people I have who have said something like 'Hey Buck its So and SO from the PC still have those coins?" to try for faster communication than through PMs.

The third scam is something I just haven't asked Simu about and I didn't want to post because I think it will just facilitate people stealing or scamming.

I was contacted to buy back a wizard I sold, again through AIM so the usernames will mean nothing. They provided me the account information first without any issue. I logged in verified everything looked right and sent the paypal payment.

This was on a Friday, so I was going to call Simu the following Monday to change account information etc. I have never had a problem with this in all the character sales I have done. When I logged in on Monday the character was gone. Apparently they had submitted a character transfer.

Or it's someone who used the good names of people on the PC to steal, and might not be a part of the PC at all except as a silent lurker. I'm not really sure why you felt that Buckwheet's issues were a reason to bash the people here, since the regulars who really make up the community don't really steal from and scam each other...

Also, not sure why you even brought up rep since no one was saying that it holds any water for merchanting. Someone's real rep which is earned has nothing to do with the bars next to their name. I think you're just really hung up on the fact that you're all in the red. At least that's how it seems from your multitude of posts like this. Sorry, bro.

Yea when i meant rep i wasnt referring to the actual rep system here, more so neg rep short for reputation.

As for me and the so called 400 dollars i scammed, i wouldnt mind seeing that 400 dollars myself...but i can't defend myself when i say no one knows what happened. Butt buds will be butt buds...i too could go into long winds about other people here who have scammed people and changed pc names numerous times but i could care less, since i still do large deals with people like chris.

Honestly, if anyone has honest claim to me scamming, its Tisket from the camera issue which seemed sketchy due to not shipping it promptly.

Otherwise, People here need something to hold onto so they can think what they want. Doesnt stop the many others from doing any business with me.

Let's talk a hypothetical here: Say I have someone who's been active (but not REAL active) on the PC for three years. Been called out once or twice as a good buyer, but not by anyone that immediately leaps out (Buck, Briarfox, Ardwen, etc). This person wants to send me cash for a character, and I want to be protected.

Reading over the PayPal documentation, they don't cover the sale of digital goods, essentially. What if the agreement was made for a package, to be shipped to the buyer's house, containing the security information for the account? That package could be tracked, and the receipt of it confirmed. At that point, would I be protected if the prospective buyer decided to attempt to cancel the sale? After all, the sale wasn't for a digital good, it was for a piece of paper with information printed on it, which I can confirm was shipped, tracked, signed for, and received.

Anyone with PayPal-fu out there know if this would work?

I believe this has been tried before with WoW accounts saying you get a pencil with a piece of paper with the account info. You would need to contact Paypal and ask them how they would handle like one of the scratch off game code cards people sell on Ebay. Its a piece of paper with a code to redeem a digital download. So one could argue that is what you are selling. Additionally you have to be afraid of "unauthorized" purchases. This was a new one to me, and that is how they "charged back" for the 40m and 25m coins. I couldn't for the life of me figure out how I got the right amount of money, but then a friendly person pointed me to a "reverse fee" Paypal calculator. Looking at the transactions they "paid" me for an item like a regular sale but sent me enough money to cover the fee. So when I reviewed the transaction at a quick glance I got the full amount which usually only happens when someone "gifts" you the money.

I don't know what Paypal would do if someone claimed unauthorized access on a Paypal gift payment. You also don't see how they funded your gift and Paypal does give the option of using credit cards. Paypal was not overly informative with my research and honestly I hate even talking about this because I am learning new things that I "thought" were fairly safe but are turning out not to be.

I really hate posting the information in general because I feel like we are writing the "how to scam GS sellers/players" guide and not the "how to protect cash transactions" guide.

Then called paypal and told them that "he" didn't make the purchases. So Paypal reversed the charges, even though paypal confirmed that it was his home ip addy that was used. But since it was digital goods, paypal didn't care, though they did say that if he continued to do this, they would ban his paypal account.

I should probably be more careful myself with cash sales, to be honest. Tho I usually sell to the same people, making it easier.

Most banks don't even require that much anymore. You can usually set it up with a full name and email address or phone number.

My bank at least tells me when doing the transfer that it's non-refundable. No take-backs once it's posted to the account, as it's from checking/savings instead of credit.

Not saying it's air tight, just an order of magnitude more difficult to dispute. It also has a more lasting effect than a paypal ban. If your bank gets pissy with you about disputing charges, it's a much bigger thorn in your side.

I'm not joking when I say the last guy who got backtraced by Candor learned first hand how consequences would never be the same. The bit when Candor forced him to emigrate to Russia and nail his testicles to the ground was particularly vicious. I want to stress again that this is not a joke.

Ha. Way to let your lawyer know how easy you are to rip off.

He employs a full time lawyer so what difference would it make if his lawyer knows he was ripped off. I would think that the cost would be greater at this point though if he's using said lawyer to work on this when he can work on other things...

My lawyer friends are usually happy to help if someone is trying to dick me over. Especially if it's a lawyer on staff! Candor is his boss. Once got scammed out of $5k and ruined the dude's life. I'm still filing judgments on him every time he moves to another state and this happened like 5 years ago. Fuck cheaters and scammers.

I am nearly certain that my scammer is reading this thread...so heads up buddy, you need to check the email account you gave me for a message.

I am the CEO of my own company and I employ a fulltime lawyer who has an extensive IT background. Guess what buddy, you made a mistake and my lawyer noticed it. I now know you who are...check the email I sent you for proof.

Either you make good on the exchange, or I post your name, address, Paypal account info, and some other public details about you on this board. Your choice.

Please be stupid about this. It will be worth the $50 as I want to see the reaction of everyone on this board.

I don't remember either of those handles or any of their posts. They were high profile posters you say? Weird. Maybe I am getting early onset alzheimers after all.

I remember Donut from waaay back (like 2008 or so). Not sure if it'd be the same one who posted here, but he was a friend of Zimzum IRL.

Donut - 40m
Regallis - 25m

Through talking with other merchants I know it wasn't them, I always wait to scream scam and ask around because it can really mess with people if its just a communication issue. The names were John Mittele for Regallis and Elena Saldivaria for Donut.

Example of stupid swirl. He is not a friend of zimzum and certainly doesn't know him IRL. Cut out the random speculation on two people Buck said had nothing to do with it.

I don't think it was "pointless". I believe the question was asked so that if someone else was approached saying "Hi, I am XXX from the PC let me steal your shit" someone could say hmm PM me on the PC to verify that. Either way I said they weren't involved and I was directly asked for the information. You must not have fully read what I said, or other people didn't which isn't my problem. I am the one out over two grand and I don't think this is going to cause either of the two people who had their PC handles used in this fashion damage in excess of that cash amount.

Additionally, I posted up I got scammed and people demanded details and criticized me for not posting ALL the details. I post more details and then I get told what I am doing is pointless. You can never win with this crowd. So how about this, how about the PC elect a "SCAM COMMITY" where all the details are provided to them and they post up what they feel is relevant or not. Jesus.

You didn't cause any damage, people just didn't read all of what you said. You are 100% right on that front. If it were me, I'd be grateful you made it public someone was pretending to be me.

I do take issue with the justification you used to dismiss the "damages". It's something that bugs me, regardless of the situation, when people justify things with "I didn't hurt them nearly as bad as I've been hurt". It's exceptionally shitty that you've been had, but that's not a reason to ignore damaging others (Which I don't think you have in this case, and are in fact very careful of). Crappy time to nitpick you, most likely. Having not been around PC very long you're one of the few people I would trust with cash dealings. :sorry:

I'm grateful you've raised awareness of the recent rise in scams. A number of people have, and will continue to, benefit from the bit of extra caution taken as a result.

Nope, I knew you considered yourself a woman. An attention whoring woman that supplies the PC with a endless supply of drivel to be more precise. Kind of like tgo1. Although at least you usually appear to have some basic intelligence. He just goes on and on looking completely retarded in countless threads. Even when people point out in plain English how retarded he sounds, he just goes on oblivious to the fact. At least it gets everyone a good chuckle every day.

Was your initial post a reaction to that one time I think we actually interacted on this board? I got that weird friend request or whatever you call it from you some time back and I was confused and figured you just were looking for attention so I politely ignored it. Wasn't posting in every single thread on the PC enough attention? Instead you felt the urge to send creepy requests to complete strangers?
