how did you know that was the reason you were in jail right away? I'm confused
i had a friend who traded leaping boots (the non r/e) for a serket ring/verm cloak, 3 HQ staves/astral earing/ a few other items get jailed because the person said it was unequal value
It was the JPs fault for accepting the trade.
Have my man-babies.Back in the day people weren't clinging to a dead game ->
The screenshot doesn't have the entire chat, it's missing both the beginning and end. In fact I never got an SS of both the beginning and the end
The conversation started off with him telling him "Greetings shinsei of blablabla"
Then he starts telling me that he brought me here over a trade dispute over 50,400.
The currency I've been buying recently is for My LS's funded Relic for one of our members Gjallarhorn, since it's using the bank, I keep records of all the purchase made with by the bank. So when he said the 50,400 I figured it was about the Opieces since its the only transaction with the bank made with that figure.
case in point, copy and paste
Currency
-1,308,000 - 109 Opieces
-8,904,000 - 742 Opieces
-276,000 - 23 Opeices
-50,400 - 4 Opeices
-60,000 - 5 Opieces
-120,000 - 10 Opieces
-108,000 - 9 Opieces
-9,600,000 - 8 Msilvers
-1,188,000 - 99 Opieces
So yea, as soon as he mentioned the figure, I looked it up and then I asked if it was about those.
And to the other that asked.
I asked him if he could kindly return me to VoS since I was in the middle of on Aspid Camp. Then he told me he couldn't. So I asked him what if I was the tank, what would happen?
His response was "Then I'm afraid your friends will die^^"
He was jailed because he said "I will give you x amount of money for these items." The other player agreed, and then they traded, and Shinsei (mistakenly) put the wrong amount in. It doesn't matter if it was a mistake, he said one thing and did another, which is a jailable offensice.
Fuck the police.
This is correct. No ones account is safe these days apparently, doesnt matter if you did nothing at all, no windower, no bot etc a totally clean account, and ppl still get jained and banned, and when they wnat their characters back its not "possible". Though I know for a fact it is, since a friend got banned and got revalidation and still plays.
in before "they're trying to kill FFXI!"
OP said it was like 4:30AM? bought the coins, went to sleep. JP probably thought he grabbed them and logged knowing he'd "tricked" the JP out of his gil. JP leaves a GM call. when OP logs on next a GM follows up and solves the problem?
I'm going to have to disagree here. For something as trivial as gil through a trade transaction there was no reason to bring him to Mordion Gaol. A simple tell conversation would have been more then sufficient.
And then his little, "Your friends will die^^" comment. This GM is a prick.
I do need to agree. Did the person who sold the currency try to get in touch with him before calling a GM?
