Lately i have seen a lot of players posting in the FSbox with posts like this:

xxxxxx says:
WANT 10 FSP? be the tenth person to send me one fsp and win 10

I personally think that this should be against the FSbox rules. the way i look at it is that it is a type of scamming. That person could tell everyone that nobody was ever the tenth person..

You'll get a BAN for doing this cough. It's already against the rules.

Plus even with sending the 10 FSP this is still a scam.

Say 9 people enter, no one wins the 10 FSP, he keeps the 9 FSP's.

If 10 people enter, he sends the 10 FSP and incurs no losses.

If 11+ people enter, he keeps everything after 10 FSP, if there is 25 participants, according to the rules he keeps 15 FSP :-\

i suspect that if 10 people enters, he just walks off with 10 fsp, you give him to much credit

If I was running this obvious scam I'd just be transparent as if HCS checks the logs, you don't have a chance in hell to say "I didn't know" as you actually lied and did not follow the rules you set

Let's wager on whether or not the next person to post one of these in the FSBox gets banned. 5 fsp per entry. Send the fee and your yes/no bet to me and... oh wait...

The mere fact that he can make a profit without risking a loss doesn't make it a scam. And you forgot the 1 fsp for the sb-post.

Don't take me wrong. I agree that it is against the rules and I agree that it is against the rules for good reasons. But offering a draw doesn't make the player a scammer.

the best way to make gold to buy fsp is to find a rune with gold gain so when you are out'a stamina you can set that rune in the place of the other and make ... probably not a lot but ... some gold :)


or why not just max out gold gain an hour, that will make you some gold to buy your fsp. :lol:
