Tip 2 - Avoid scams!
This is another easy one, but some people mess up BADLY.
Avoid being scammed!
There are many types of scams, but today I'll cover TWO.
The first scam type is a popular one, nicknamed the "Birthday scam". This is where someone pretends its their birthday, and tries to get you to send them items like betas and rares. No matter if your friend says this, if you don't know them from real life and know their birthday, THIS IS A SCAM!! Don't fall for their ploy, because you'll end up rareless/itemless/betaless.
Now, the second one is called the "Trust scam". It is an EXTREMELY common one, you can literally walk into Jamaa Township and see, like, five of these guys. They'll constantly say "Trust me!" "Trust me!" and have a HORRIBLE item on their trade. Again, unless you know them from real life, DONT DO IT! No matter how long you've known, oh, Mister Smellyfoot, he is trying to scam you!
Stay safe Jammers! :D -Axxie
