Rule Suggestion (3.13 Selling Items)

[Kevko]

Suggestion Topic: 3.13 Selling Items
Suggestion Description: Banning "Mystery Boxes".
We have all seen them, especially in the last couple of days. "Mystery Boxes" with nothing but salt or ppk's in them.
I think we all can agree, that we hate scammers, right? These boxes are the easiest way to scam someone, without risking anything.
You mostly don't know who owned the box, so who are you going after?
Xao Higgins is the only one I know for a fact, that actually puts AS50's in some of his boxes (respect for that!). He's using them as a gambling way and I kinda feel bad that I want to take that away from him, but they became a plague.
Some of you might disagree on that and that's totally fine, but I think we should add to rule 3.13, that any kind of mystery boxes are not allowed.

For anyone wondering: No, I did NOT buy one and got scammed lol

Much love!

Why should this be added?:
- Make it harder to scam people, since it's the easiest way to get away with scamming.
- Stops people off buying salt for 40k

What negatives could this have?:
- Scammers would hate this rule to be added

i got an as50 from him too the other day!! but yes i agree that something needs to be done about them, its just a easy money making method with no repercussions.

This is being discussed at the next admin meeting

With mystery boxes, it is very hard to identify if you are being scammed and who is scamming you, which is not really conducive to any sort of roleplay, and is therefore not a mechanic we support.

The rules surrounding scamming and selling items will change over the coming days following a poll I will create shortly addressing the topic at large.

Thank you for your suggestions.
