the rule states such:
"Any exchange of materials outside GraalOnline secured exchange locations, falls under the term 'caveat emptor', or 'buyer beware.' In other words, GraalOnline will not be responsible for rectifying broken promises, incomplete trades, etc. in such a setting. If trading outside Graal 'sanctioned' trading locations, trade only with players you can trust.

This 'caveat emptor' approach does not mean Scamming is legal, only that it is difficult to prove. If Graal Police witness a scam directly they may punish the offending player. The best way to avoid being scammed is to only trade within secure trading facilities in Graal."

could you guys explain "If Graal Police witness a scam directly they may punish the offending player." whats considered as "witnessing a scam"? if i offer a service that sounds like a scam is that considered "witnessing"? or is it if they catch me in process of me actually scamming someone?

also does this mean that i am not allowed to advertise a service in graal which involves a trade outside of the game?

Thanks!  

I see that you got that from the code of conduct. Here's a more recent version of the rules that pertain specifically to classic, which could help answer your question.

Witnessing a scam could entail something like seeing someone tell another player that they can make all their gralats rainbow if they unlock them, for example.

Can you provide more details about what's actually going on? What is your service and what are you trading...?  

sounds like you're trying to scam people then weasel your way out of trouble  

Selling toupees to nostalgia junkies, no doubt.  

Rules are meant to be broken.
