These people willingly played, with their own time characters they thought were going to be interesting, however if they had taken 5 minutes to look at the game instead of trusting a total stranger like an idiot, they wouldn't be at a loss. Hacking, ehhhhhh, more like teaching a few people a lesson.
My oh my. what a leap of imagination it was for me to debunk that argument.
This is literally too stupid for me to respond to.

I'm saying just because you caught someone not being careful does not make you in the right (remember the person who started this was trying to make it a moral issue. which honestly my real response is just lol.). Although when a seller makes the mistake (horrible mispricing of an item, incorrect keystroke etc) that is, in my opinion, always their fault. It also more often than not just leads to no one buying the item as most mispricing tends to go up, not down. And just so I don't have to see the "but in item trades..." awful fallacious argument; In a trade, both parties are simultaneously buyer and seller.
You say that when the seller puts in an incorrect keystroke, therefore resulting in a very low price for a high price item, and a loss of money for them, it is their fault, but when a low price item is sold at a high price, and the buyer doesn't take the time to even look at the item, which takes 1-3 seconds, it isn't their fault?
