AotI-XBox 360: beware traders

[STRANG]

People are somehow lagging the trade menu and taking your item without giving theirs. i know of one person (that goes by the name of a certain card in a deck of 54 of which there are only two of) for sure who has done it multiple times, so its not just a freak occurence.

[Davot]

Yeah, i know what your talking about,my friend lost his double agito to that.

[Marche]

thats why I don't trade

i'm pretty sure the lag is caused on the OTHER END of the trade purposely, your ISP will not help theirs.

wtf is this supposed to mean? how are we Supposed to KNOW that this could even happen in the first place?

thats like getting your room hacked and saying "thats y i dont have a shop"

Or getting all your inventory wiped from a glitch and saying "Thats y id dont carry anything on me"

[dc534]

buddy of mine is sick of this game, lost his tesbra gave away his stuff and deleted his characters, charaters he put at least 1800 hours into playing. All because some nub cant find his own stuff and has to go around scamming people.

When I reported a scammer. All that he got was a week suspension....I was told he would be watched to see if he scams again (Even though he already scammed like 5 other people before the suspenion) and if he does they'll perm ban him.

But that lag scamming those people are doing is really hard to see. The item doesnt even disappear until the trade is pretty much finalized.

this

[DarkEliteRico]

I won't trade with people, and when i do it's after i've played with them a few times. If i want something i'll use our lovely shop function and go out and buy it that way

[STRANG]

bump

[Rashiid]

I trade sometimes, but I do get nervous.
I prefer to just buy.

[Randomness]

To me, it sounds like theres some kind of glitch being used to make the server think you accepted, combined with lag so you don't see them removing their items.

Any bets that this works on PC too?
