People can suck. Don't
ever forget that. People in Diablo can be really not cool
sometimes. I can't tell you from personal experiences how many
times I've had people attempt to scam me. Since I'm a veteran
player, I just laugh at these silly noobs, but for those of you
without as much experience,
please
use these tips to avoid this. It happens
everyday in this game and it has happened to people in the clan
and still does. Trust me - it sucks.
-----------------------------------------------------------------
1. Watch out
for duped items, duped items are normally deals that either
sound to good to be true or are extremly rare and perfect. The
best way to tell if its legit is if its unidentified.
2.
When dueling, if you die, on your
way back to getting your body make sure that there are not a
bunch of items laying on your body, these people are trying to
pop you, if you pick up an item without your body and it equips,
if they kill you your items will fall to the ground.
*We
have had several members that have been popped - it is not
pretty.*
3. If you join games where people are
trying to teach you how to "dupe" be aware that this is more
than likely a scam. Never ever download anything these people
tell you to, there are programs that make you start droping your
items if you download them.
*We have also
had members who had this done to them.*
4. Another scam you must be careful of,
normally used to so called "teach" you how to dupe, is another
form of getting you to pop and drop all of your items. Do not
ever let someone kill you, and have them do something to you and
kill you again. They will make up some lame excuse of a duping
method done this way, or some other tricky scheme.
5. Hacking of any sort can result to your
accounts demise. Blizzard can tell if you are hacking, and if
they catch you doing something that they do not want you doing,
something that breaks the rules of the terms of agreement, they
will delete your account, or penalize you.
6. If you are caught scaming people, any
evidence or sometimes just tips, but if screen shots are taken
of the action, you could lose your account or have it penalized. |
