So, you admitted you made a mistake and nicely asked for your money back, and the GM was just the right amount of stupid+nice to give it back to you... does that about cover it ? Oh, and you were ignorant enough to NOT know this shouldn't have happened and gladly advertised the successfull reversion of the process in the forum, for everybody to see.... basically, flaunting your preferential treatment by the GM.
If you got special treatment, you might as well just shut up about it. I wouldn't be surprised if this gets escalated by somebody to Internal Affairs, and you get the character back and ISK gone again. No, I won't be the one petitioning this to IA, I'm not evil enough. But some of the people you annoyed with your attitude in here just might.
Technically, the GM didn't make a mistake, he just bent the rules in your favor. But rule bending can be a tricky thing to do, especially with the recent scandals.
If a character has low security status and you are selling it i expect you to mention it, since it was not mentioned i didn't think there was an issue, there was several characters i was choosing between which didn't help. The seller should have noted the bad sec status and this wouldn't have happend.
Why? So that you wouldn't have to *gasp* go INGAME and check the character's security status before spending 14bil on it (which you obviously care about, seeing as you petitioned to get it back).
I don't care where you got the ISK from. Fact remains you shouldn't have got it back for your own idiocy. I hope the poor bugger who sold you that character gets their (real life) money back for the transfer fee. Did you think of that before coming crying to the forums and squealing "Scam! Scam! I'll have to spend a weekend 0.0 ratting up my sec status from -3.9!"? Probably not, you just sat there feeling self-righteous.
And then of course you have the audacity to cry "troll" when people call you out on your own mistakes.
Personally I'd have just told you to stop being a 'tard and actually check what you're spending your 14bil on next time.
This is what (possibly) annoys me most. The fact of the matter is, somebody didn't bother checking the Sec Status of the character, nor asking the seller.
You petitioned.
You got your ISK back.
Thing is, the guy selling the character probably didn't get his transfer fee back, and most likely now has lost that character to a ban on the account it was transferred from.
If the character is banned and it is back on his account then tell me how is he selling it again? I specifically said to the GM that i didn't think it was a scam but just someone who forgot.

14 bill isn't much to be honest with you, but i can see how a noob might think it is.
probably coz noobs dont buy ISK on ebay
you prooved how stupid you are when you spend X billions on something without even checking first with a simple "right click->show info"
or maybe... maybe you actually DID check, but hoped to trick CCP to change your security rating for you, with some lame excuse, but the in the end the only thing you got was a "rollback".
oh and PS: if you claim to be so OMG PRO and play since release... have the balls to post on your main (not a ebayed one please), otherwise just STFU.

lol I was being sarcastic dear a little jab at you trying to buy your way to the top:) Plus how many noobs have RnD alts like mitsuk0 here?
If 14bil is not much to you why are you *****ing? Just buy another char for a stupidly inflated price.

Originally by: Felysta Sandorn The person selling a character is not obliged to show his security status, it is merely a suggestion, and added as an item people want to know when buying characters.
When making the purchase, you obviously didn't want to know the security status of the character, else you would have asked.
If you believed the character sale to be a scam, you would not have entered in to bidding in the first place.
An intelligent person who was interested in the character would have asked the question 'What security status is the character in question?' Had the seller then responded saying it was above -1.9, then you would be right in petitioning for your money back. You did no such thing however, therefore should not have the right to demand reimbursement...
It's like buying a film, then taking it back to the store saying 'Yeah, I bought this film yesterday and watched it, but you didn't tell me it had cars in it. I don't like cars and therefore demand my money back.'
Your behaviour in this matter is disgraceful, as is the decision by the GM that reimbursed you. Personally, if I were a GM, I would have responded with the following:
"The seller is not obliged to show his security status, it is your duty to look it up before purchase. If you do not like what you have purchased with your ISK, I suggest you take it up with the seller. Our hands are tied in this matter and we cannot reimburse your ISK."
Also, having played the game as long as you say you have, you undoubtedly have access to deep 0.0 or a high quality level 4 agent in a lowsec area where you can get your security status up to -1.9 in a day or two.
The way you resorted straight to whining however is pathetic, and shows that you're a spoilt little child (also evident in the way you speak to other forum members). The fact that you do not post with your main also shows that you know this and don't want to get berated by your corp mates. If your character(s) were in my corp, I would kick you as soon as I could.
I emplore the GMs to look on this case with some scrutiny and perhaps change their minds from the clearly mistaken decision they first made.

Don't ask her to post with her main, this is what she tries to buy...

Where did you get 14 billion isk? Do you already have some high level characters? I was just curious if you are building a mini-fleet or ?
As far as getting the trade reveresed, the GM must have smelled scam or perhaps the seller agreed to reverse the trade himself! See, nobody ever assumes the smoothest scenario.
I think of GMs like cops, they can ask nicely for you to do something to keep the peace,,, maybe that is what happened?
I am not sure why everybody cares so much. I only care, because I am getting all caught up in everybody else caring. Then,, I sit here thinking wth?
