Rant: Why am I still surprised? emotion_sweatdrop
It still amazes and surprises me how some folks still can not identify Gaia Staff. I mean seriously? There's a sticky thread called: How to spot -- Staff Impersonation and View Forum Moderators in every forum, to name a few. Folks in Q&A have signatures explaining how to identify who's a staff from a poser/scammer. They even have PICTURES of it! And they still don't see it. Has the internet made people dumb to their account security? Or maybe the reading ability? Or maybe, just maybe Human-kind is doomed to failure.

emotion_bigvein Another thing! The "community member" title under our names...which rolled out a few days ago... Well, folks STILL get duped into giving out their password. Example: "Oh...I let the person logged into my account to help me accumulate more gold in zOMG. Then, I got logged out and couldn't log back in. What's wrong with Gaia?" Seriously? You're blaming Gaia for your[/] stupidity. How hard is it to use your eyes? Glance over to someone's username? Investigate the user? Read a stickie thread? Wahhhhh we're doomed.

Okay, I got that off my chest. I don't know how many times I make an entry of this. But it does help release the thought.

emotion_eyebrow I don't understand why folks still private message me to un-ban their account or re-enable their trading pass. emotion_bigvein
