Once I camped the architect back when you could steal deeds. I stole a L-shape deed from a guy who quit that very same day. (I also looted another house about two minutes later.)

That stolen L is my only real house to this day.

I am too, which is why I am posting to warn other players so they can learn from what happened to me. I know that most people who read this and reply with either do so to flame me, or support one of the two names brought up. The fact is that I want other players to avoid this situation. I talked with Tabius in IRC as the log reflects and posted the logs from both conversations (matron,tabius). The facts are facts, people can say this and that at the end of the day I am out 160k because I was scammed and it seems more than likely that it was Matron. Regardless people need to be careful, as it appears I was not.

The real or fake one?? LOL, all I can say is if i wanted any sort of revenge I wouldnt have just screwed up my name in the process... I would have made a fake like matron did. Imagine that fake Matrons and Chums all over the land doing good deeds... that would really make people think the servers gone topsy turvey.

In any case, I hope all players listen to the advice I give, never deal with a broker without fist contacting them via irc, or direct message on the forums prior. Always ALWAYS ask questions if you are unsure.

There are ways to find out the fakes, guild abbreviations is the best way to this date.

That Tabius is denying his former membership in cA says a lot, IMO.

Yeah, I was really starting to respect cA in many ways (even with having been "victimized"..alot of what they do is pretty clever, and isn't really griefing)...but this is really lame bottom of the barrel stuff, dropping a level below the usual creativity and doing stuff that's just mean to new players=teh suck:(


There's a fine line between creative nefarious deeds that keep things interesting, and just scamming stuff from some poor new dude.

Sad.

I'm sorry this happened to you.

I would like to say that I appreciate all of the support from fellow honest gamers. More importantly I would like to thank not only Brother Tabius but also Chaos and Kryptonical for helping me out in this situation. All three of these upstanding individuals chipped in and gave me the equivilent of what I lost, they are honest and upstanding. They didnt even have to do a thing as it was not them who scammed me, yet they felt it was necessary to give me assistance so I would like to publicly thank Brother Tabius, Chaos, and Krytonical, thank all of you, it is greatly appreciated.

Firstly I'm not in PoV, hardly anyone is active in it now. cA did not casue PoV's decline in activity in any way, though i'm sure they might like to think so ;)
cA's antics against PoV were actually enjoyable on some level, -especially the attack on our guild meeting- and did not affect me negatively, if anything they are something I will remember with fondness long after I no longer play UOSA.

That kind of thing is way above the level of scamming some new guy out of a deed, if you wanna think it's just me complaining then go for it, but that wasn't my motivation for mentioning any of this...as I said in general I think cA adds something to the shard, but some stuff crosses the line from healthy to gameplay, to just being sad.

Did i miss something here? I hate to sound like an ass about this, but matron is a known scammer and the whole Ca Guild is about stealing peoples things on a regular basis. They once made hemperor's tamer a dozen some odd count pk just to grief him.

I'm surprised anyone would buy or sell anything to matron.... I just can't believe with all the evidence against CA, that ANYONE would walk near any of them with anything in their pack.

They are the reason people lock their doors and never go in their houses in most cases.
