Accidentally sent contract for 0.00 caps

Post by Guest » 19.07.2009, 20:52

Hi,

I accidentally sent a contract for 500,000 power and filled in the price in the left field instead of in the field on the right, above the company name. The person accepted my contract. I didn't intend to sell something for nothing! I'm only just starting out here. The person didn't want to send it back (only for 0.10). Please tell me what to do as I don't want my account closed!!!

Regards,
Girasol Ltd

Yes, do it asap.
Before they see it and think you are cheating.

No, it happened also to some of us.

Yes it happened to me several times too, but fortunately the receicer of the contracts noticed it and canceled.
Very weird though that this company won't send you the power back since it was clearly a mistake.
The idiot.

People should be honest, and send it back :?


the person who accepted the contract is actually risking problems with a game moderator by accepting it for free,
it's probably considered to be worse than (accidentially) selling something for free.

sending it for free is a simple mistake though, so don't worry about that too much. :wink:

I have had a few contracts slip through, too. When the Kindergarden is "calling" I can have up to 200 incoming contracts a day. After awhile you get good at glancing through quality and price before accepting something. :lol:

I think this forum needs a S.H.I.T list
where persons who were ripped off can voice their displeasure and name
names...
Wether the list is maintained by an Admin or a free for everyone situation
In real life that companies name would be on a "Watch" list with a warning of "do business with them at your own risk"

I have been burned 2 or 3 times and I just do not do business with those companies again...ever.I do not recommend them I discourage people I know from dealing with them.

It does but what stops us from ganging up on some companies e.g we decide to blacklist the top 10 companies in FA .

Allright, thanks for posting the number 1 post in the top 10 most retarted comment posts.

I've seen some REAL stupid posts during the years i've been on this forum, but this one prolly beats them all.

So, you got ripped off a few times.
TBH, had i been ripped off so often, i prolly wouldn't tell everybody cuz if anything it would make me look stupid.
'Being tricked once sux, but being [censored] more then once only shows me you aren't very bright.


Also the admins are clear about naming names like you want to, IT IS NOT ALLOWED.
And they are very right.
The both of us do business, you suddenly think you got ripped off, so you put my company on that list despite there not being anything wrong with the deal.
Or you just dislike me, so you put me on the list cuz you know me in RL and i kicked your ass once.
That last one could even be in another game where your account got destroyed by me, like for instance in Travian.


See, several perfect reasons why they should NEVER create such list.



If you want to whine about a company doing crooked business, you pm goldeneye and relieve your anger in a message to him telling him what a jerk that guy who ripped you off really is.


This is a game dude, sometimes you make mistakes, who cares...its only a game...
But being ripped off always takes 2 people, and when the one is a cheater the other either was greedy or stupid, or just to lame to check what was happening.
Then again, i admit being to lame to check a contract could be considered stupid by some.



I've been cursed upon by people cuz they claimed i cheated them, while others send me messages claiming i'm the most honourable guy in the world....
Now, which of those was right??

He DID contact the person.
But that person would only send it back for 0,10.
