why pre-planned Online meetings are not a good idea.

If you belong to the popular website Wizard101central.com, you may have planned to meet someone online.  This is a problem because the following thoughts may go through your head:


  •     I can trust this person
  • I can tell this person personal stuff since i met him on etc.com or whatever.

    you should NOT be thinking any of these thoughts because YOU CAN'T TRUST THIS PERSON! they could call their friends and port to you and call you names and bug and insult you until you fork over your treasure cards. NO. in this case, the REPORT is your best friend. be safe when on the big WWW

Scamming gone too far? Scoop investigates.

and we're live on the scoop with flint strider. Yesterday, in the shopping district around 7:00 pm, a wizard named michael something-or-other called out to everyone "I'LL GIVE YOU ANY CROWN ITEM FOR SOME GOOD TREASURE CARDS!" well, of course, everyone came over to him. Just your usual scamming. I made friends with him to see what would happen, he said to a girl nearby , "Ashley! wanna do some farming* after this, girl?" obviously that was his girlfriend. but when he finally took the cards. he QUIT. instead of porting somewhere else. he quit. and because he was on my buddy list, i noticed he didn't come back at all that night! leaving his "girlfriend standing there"

     *farming is a wizard term for fighting a boss repeatedly for additional loot and goods.
