Talk:Common scams/Item scams

deleting/weakening commendations scam?
I would like to see the commendations scam removed or weakened to a note. Buying items from new players for less than their minimum value may not be the most sporting conduct, but in my view, scamming involves providing some false information to potential buyers/sellers to raise their interest, which is clearly not the case here. If we put commendations here then we must as well include "Buying black dye for 1k", "buying VALUABLE_MOD for 100g", "buying bone dragon pet for 5k" etc. etc.. This is obviously not practical but just as valid because it aims at the ignorance of players regarding item prices. Reminding players to always check prices before trading would be more useful than classifying all these as scams. Additionally, the list's relevance suffers with every non-scam entry. If nobody objects, I'm going to change the commendations entry accordingly. RolandOfGilead 12:13, 4 September 2006 (CDT)
