Going to events is becoming somewhat hazardous to my tempter. If there is two things i cannot stand in this game, is folks who take advantage of other players by dubious methods, and beggars. Since the banning of certain events that can't be mentioned here i think.. There has been an influx of random beggars sitting in an event I arrive at, telling me how poor they are, can i please give them coin. First thing i do, head to their badges, and they ALWAYS have the rockerfella badge. Its happening time and time again. More so than ever before. They just pick an event that has multiple rooms rooms on sale and sit in one.. begging, (dressing dirt poor too to boot) I wonder if these folks can be reported as soliciting coins? Thou I do really hate to report another Yoworldian. Begging is extremely annoying, and is putting me off attending events.

A lot of the time they come to MY event when I'm trying to sell or buy something to ask for stuff. I don't know if anything annoys me more than this. I don't mind helping new people who are actually TRYING to make coins, but all these people on alternate accounts trying to beg for 2k, like really?You're trying to rip people off on a second account for 2k??!!! oh please.

Ha Chris i bet they are bothering your customers more.. I believe anyone who begs. Has no integrity. I will not help them.. I have helped Yo's who i have seen trying to genuinely buy things. I've paid for the items they want etc., and given them stuff.. But out and out begging. grrr.. I also hate arriving at a sale, and having some random you pm me for how much I want for my hair..

Yesterday I had a gal try it on. I went to an event got the pm, would i trade my hair for her lips LMAO.. I replied. Are you stupid? She replied NO - --- i'm like.. OOOOhhhh so .. you think i'm stupid? She laughed it off as a joke, and told me I didn't take it very well hahahaha.. Opportunistic vultures some of these guys & gals. :(

I try very hard to control myself against these folks, but if there's one thing that drives me up the wall it's stupid. I just an not deal with stupid people.

Actually I even had a 40 minute talk with 2 young girls trying to use the double coin scam on people. I told them they are doing all this work of trying to trick someone into giving them 2k. They spend how many coins on events to get 2k? They're spending more than they can even trick people into giving them. I told them they'd most likely lose all their accounts if they kept it up, not just their alternate but all their accounts. After telling them to just be honest players I left, look in the events and see 'Help us we're poor' by the same 2 girls. *shrugs* people can be pathetic.

They sure can Chris but nothing we can do about it. I won't report them. I figure, BVG is over run at the moment with reports and petty stuff... If I reported everyone who irritated me. My hubby would be sitting in Jail hahahaha.

We can block them, right? I am going to start doing that. I am also going to encourage the owners of the events to kick them.

LMAO that was too good! Yeah, I could report them and see if BVG does anything, but I'm sure many others already reported these fools. 40 minutes of discussion didn't change their acts 1 bit. We'll be the ones laughing when they are disabled and can no longer play.

I've tried that, but owners are often in trade - or just can't see me. Or just not there. Its always my luck.

Yeah it can be annoying. Eventually you are gonna have to live with it because there are so many. Don't let them stop you from going to events. Also some of them are not noobs,just alternate accounts from active or banned players.

ITs like real life they beg and beg till someone feels sorry for them and gives them something! Then they start again! Depending on their resolve it can be pretty lucrative! :lol:

Sinister, where in real life do you see that? I am at Port Authority in New York City at least once a week and i might see two or maybe three really obnoxious beggars and hundreds of thousands of people go through there a day - maybe even millions - I don't know. The problem here is that the ratio of beggars to players is huge.
If they are alts or banned players, they need to be reported.
