Can I get some sort of compensation for the misunderstanding by Snk?

This is why Era needs a rule list for every pointless rule they've made in the past.

Exactly, just compensate everyone they've made a mistake with. I loved my egg dance out of every rare I scammed. Its not like I just scam to scam, I scam to scam scam scam. If you get what I'm saying (ᶜᵃᵘˢᵉ ᴵ ᵈᵒᶰ'ᵗ).

I even dropped everything when I quit last year...

Scamming is not legal on trade tables I believe and the picture seems to imply it was done over tables.

To be fair to Silly Frog, weren't the tables made as a safety measure to prevent scamming, but scamming in a whole is still perfectly legal?

However karma is a wag, and you can never rely on iEra staff to own up to and compensate for any mistakes they've made.

Scamming through any means that does not involve an official trade method should be perfectly legal, considering the person that got scammed was enough of an idiot to do it. Doing it through trade tables can't really be called scamming unless you some how fake them out and they give you something for free or you swap ****. I have no idea of how these ******ed things work, but it can't really be scamming unless you swap out items or remove something at the last minute.

Exactly, the tables remind each player every time something happens. It gives so many chances. So no one is at fault but the so called "scammed".

Now if the player hacked or somehow ddos'd the table to make the other recipient not able to cancel, then we would have a problem. I was banned from Pocket Legends for scamming so much, lol so I came here where they actually (should) have logic on how to teach people to look closely at things.
Let's just see how it turns out, cause this is like the only way I know how to profit nowadays...

Even made a video for people to use to be "fair".

Scamming is dumb so I find this hilarious

I usually like to profit on my trades so i always just wait till someone gives me a good deal, even if ita bad for them by a lot. I dont try to scam but i trade in a "buy low and sell high" method so if thats what theyre willing to pay then so be it. I started with only an insanity axe and ended up with a dreamer axe, lep morph, crimson blade and other decent items in that price range.

Nice, yes legit is the way to go but lol this is just a game, no one is gaining any physical harm from being scammed so I can sleep at night with my brand new chili sword.

That isn't what they were made for....

no one is gaining any physical harm.

No one sustains physical harm from being emotionally/verbally abused either. That's a poor justification for doing something.

Indeed, it is disingenuous to people to suggest such a thing! Surely you would not appreciate the same happening to you, my amphibian friend.

Scamming is a cool thing.
It's called a lesson to not be stupid.
