BEWARE. A guy called Yons isgoing around pretending to slice weapons, he has convincing macro advert which caught me out


After handing him my scythe for slicing, he waited, he then asked me what i thought the slice was,

Iguessed speed, he repliedthat it was speed, then he ran off and shuttled, with my scythe,


Isent him numerous tells over 30 mins, he still stayed online but wasnt responding. no afk messages either.


Ive reported him (for all teh good that will do)

Dont let him catchyou out.


Further more if you see him, beat the living*edit* out of him for me



I hope that the smuggler revamp will prevent such acts as this.

Sorry about that man. Prolly better to post this on your server forum. From now on, try to find a smuggler friend, or friend-of-a-friend so this doesn't happen. Almost every one of my customers are friends or friends-of-friends.

Seriously, that's a bummer man. I didn't think anyone was that low. If I was on Corbantis I'd kick the sheeyit outta him.

You can do something about it, you do a /report from ingame, and also post an ingame complaint against the player. The CSR's have access to look back of the chat logs of chars to and it also records the events that take place, including items that had been traded from one person to another.


There are actions that can be done to handle these type problems. I have seen this done before.


Check it out anyway, worst thing that can happen is that you will not get it back, so you have nothing to lose in trying it.

If you report it as "Trade Fraud" you will almost definitley get it back. I had the misfortune of going link dead the moment I hit "Accept" during a slice trade. As soon as I went link dead the *ahem* gentleman in question reported me for trade fraud and then set up a macro to spam the unHoly Hell outta me (which actually had the effect of me going bugsh !t for half an hour trying to log in and give him his stuff while being unable to cuz ofgoonish actions!). Anyway, I got a pretty straightforward letter from a CSR which basically said. We looked. You traded for a slice. Give it back or we'll take it and you will be...pyoonished.


And on a side note - If you trade and it looks like something shady is going on, give it a minute or two before you crack-out like Captain Idiot (see above). If it hadn't been for his retarded spamming knocking me off every time I tried to log back on, he woulda gotten his stuff in 5 mins. =)

Dude....what you need to do is put him in your "friends" list..... fin out what faction the sob is in...join the opposing faction.....if you in a guild have them look for him too and then pounce whenever you can....if in a guild you could all put him in friends list and whole guild make a sport of finding him and putting the hurt on him whenever you can lol.....I never hold a grudge (eye twitches)....

i think i'll try reporting it as trade fraud then.


by the way, he struck again.. after logging on i noticed yons was online, i did a /target yons to discover rthat he was 20m from me, back inside the starport at coronet, spamming his fake macro.I ran over to him to hurl some abuse, as i got there he already had a "customer" Aran Forel, i fell sorry for this guy, he lost his 600k set of comp armor, seconds later he burst ran outta there. me an aran chased him for a while, aran managed to grab screen shots of his macro. hopefully we'll get the csr's attention this time.


if anyone sees a post by aran about this let me know.

Iasked what is to become of yons, the csr saidthat they are not allowed to say, butaction has been taken, they do not tolerate trade fraud.
