I started thinking about how scammers have the heart to scam, If I even THINK about scamming someone, which I would never do, I'd feel weird and log off. I know, I know, its a GAME, but from the way I look at it, scamming is impossible for some people. On the other hand, I have gotten scammed MANY times, and all I say is 'mah' and move on, but If my friends get scammed, I feel awful for them. The scammer him/herself has to have a lot of guts to scam someone, especially someone that is new to this game. I remember getting scammed out of 5m, when It was the highest amount of money I've ever carried. I literally started screaming. The thread about the SCG's ruined my day, I didn't know how many people actually think about scamming someone, this guy even asked the PUBLIC. wth?

Everyone is different in some way, from polar opposites to subtle difference. People have different ideas and morals on what they think is right or wrong. Maturity can also affect this as a way of not properly thinking things out. People on the internet reflect themselves all the time, directly or indirectly. Apparently, some people have little feelings for repercussions on what will happen after the incident. It may seem that most scammers have "guts" but most of the time, it's the greed or the ignorance that overshadows the moment. Perhaps the scammer sees nothing wrong in what he/she is doing, meaning that they think it is perfectly fine to deceive the ill-informed in prices, which in itself is vain and terrible. /end rant
