Albino.

A second word about scams?

Carbohydrates.

Now, after those brief words, I wanted to say that if you ever see anything like "You give me 10 points and I'll give you 100" IT WILL 100% OF THE TIME BE A SCAM!

If there is some random deviant that you don't know wanting you to give them points for a magical "X" number afterwards, they are LYING and you will never see those points again.

You would think this would be common sense, but it unfortunately is not. At all.

Remember that 10 points is 8 cents. A homeless guy would curse you out if you tried giving him 8 cents. Also, remember that all points transfers are AT YOUR OWN RISK. YOU chose to give those points out. YOU gambled, hoping to get 100 or whatever number the guy promised, and lost. Scammers like that prey on gullible schmucks, so don't be a gullible schmuck.

I wish common sense things like this became a meme and traveled through people's comments instead of "FB will close down unless..." or whatever conspiracy theory thing people are talking about today.

I would love to see examples of other points scams you've seen people try to do, if any of you have seen any. Please don't name any names in the comments, though. ;)

Also, I'm playing with Sta.sh writer's new features, to there are lots of unnecessary bolds, italics and an underline or two.


Pure awesomeness.

It's the weekend. The earliest your problem or anyone elses will be dealt with is Monday. I don't work 24/7 and I don't appreciate you nagging me on my profile page.

Excuse me, but my girlfriend :iconvelvet-flame: was banned and she did nothing wrong. She wants to come back to DA but is being ignored, can you do something?

I'm sorry but as that looks like a CEA issue, I can not get involved too much, since I focus on retail tickets. :)
