What on Earth is it with the amount of scams this league

IRL and in MMO one rule is the same: survival of the fittest. IRL legal system and its police enforcement try to ensure, that the 'fittest', best adapted, is not 'crook'. So IRL there are and will always be scammers, thieves, common bandits etc, but in most cases it's margin. In POE scamming IS rewarding so is exercised
IRL you should check the bank note you get for wrong nominal or obvious forgery. If you still get a fake, you go to the police. And they will not tell you 'You dumb schmuck, did you check all the markers real note should have? Their extensive list is published. Did you check it with your portable UV?' Any comparison to Poe is pointless

I get all the semantics, finger-pointing, holier than thou demeanors, ridiculously shitty Darwinian references, "get rekt" attitudes, etc. You're all cool and stuff.

But is anyone actually against the implementation of glowing/pulsing links for enhanced visual distinction on links here?

If there is someone against it, the same GGG. Something so easy and so simple cannot be an obstacle to its implementation immediately unless you give your legal player base exactly the same

If you want to know the support response of how they act or will act against users who take advantage of others, whether scam, account theft, exploits and others i can copy and paste an email from them. Very unfortunate his position I have already lost faith in this company.

small or nearly no amount of consequences = more scammers every league.

so nothing speacial here.

Hmm i was thinking that too is same sht every time less chaos divine for exalt 6S instead 6L . .. omg

When there is zero punishment or recourse for scamming, more and more people are going to do it.

This game is a scammer/PoS paradise. From Price Fixing, to scamming, to F2p Botting, I mean if you have no moral qualms the sky is the limit in PoE.

And it is working as intended! It is based on the (in)famous trade manifesto, so it is fine!! Enjoy your stay and send a postcard!!!(That is, if you can find an actual post box and not a wheelie bin pretending to be one and just wanting you currency.)

Wrong. They will never stop trying. It might prevent many(maybe even most) people from being scammed indeed. But unless there is swift and reliable punishment for these scamming attempts, they will just keep trying.

They did protect the players when they designed the trade window. It's foolproof.
The fail is on the player.
You people need to stop pointing fingers to place blame and look in the mirror.

Stop falling for these OBVIOUS scams and there will be less attempts to scam others.

I don't trade, so I'm not "against it". That doesn't mean I think for a second that it would help.
