Today, I logged on and played overpowered pvp. I was extremely lucky and got a sharpness X diamond axe. Immediately, Admin Dead-op-king msged me and sayed she would pay me 50 million$ on prison. So, I aggreded and we met at the Collin hangout house and I gave her the ax. But then, she said 50m means 50 mints....... And she left with my ax. At first I refused to give the ax but she said " I'm a admin why would I scam u?" And then I kinda trusted her... But when she didnt pay me 50 mil she said mints when she obousilly said $ in prison..... I got scammed! After she scammed me, she gave the ax to kennethdave then left the game.. Someone please help me!
The rank [Admin] isn't a staff rank on our servers. Scamming is allowed unless it involves real money. Please try to be careful and watch out for future scammers.
Only trade with players that you know or trust. Also if you have not read them yet, here is the link to the Formal List of Server Rules https://www.minetime.com/threads/formal-list-of-server-rules.1393/
Scamming isn't completely allowed... If you buy someone a rank and he/she doesn't pay you the money promised, he/she would get a permanent ban (if sufficient proof is provided)
Also, if someone approaches you with an offer that seems so good, you should make them uphold their end of the bargain first. If they refuse, then obviously to them it isn't actually worth what they are offering you, they are just trying to scam you. If someone actually wanted it that bad they would agree to go first. I remember one time in prison, someone I killed in pvp wanted their axe back, they offered me 15 mill for it. I agreed to the offer and met with them in a safe location. When I asked him to pay me he said: "you throw the axe first", to that I replied: "Nope, have a nice day". After a little argument he said: "Fine! I was just gonna scam you anyways" Though, through his actions it would have been apparently obvious to even the most casual of observers that that was his intent from the beginning of our dialog. What I'm saying is that if you apply even a little thought to your situation you can usually tell if they are just trying to scam you.
