Post: Should Ngu Prohibit REAL money transactions?

(adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}); SCAMMING: this seems to be a growing trend on NGU, not to the faults of Ngu staff of course as they shouldnt be held liable, BUT when is enough, ENOUGH, real money transactions on this site only promote scams and quick get money schemes and the users get banned but make away with cash, give a lil kid candy he will most likely take it, give an offer of something HUGE, and kids will line up with paypal accounts. since the forum contains mostly younger users, the site should promote using only vbux as this would ensure no major harmful scamming, and in turn, would prevent a ton of reported posts and a crap load of BAN THIS GUY in the shout box. even though kids or anyone shouldnt just fork over money so easily, some people just dont know better. or assume that its ok cuz its on ngu and the user is a MOD(kn1ght) or the user is trustworthy..any one can scam if the rep is high enough and just leave the site with a pocket full of cash. Morality has taken a grim turn for a select few on this site who think its cool or easy to scam people out of hard earned money.I still think that real money can be used only on OFFICIAL ngu tournies or things of that matter only when approved by a majority by the mods. Question is...do u agree or disagree, and why? this will be a poll..so please dont flame me cuz this is just my opinion on how to avoid future scams and aleviate alot of clutter in mods Pms when they could be using the same time for better things.

true, but then why allow real money in the first place? if they dont promote or are not repsonsible, then it shouldnt be allowed, if they arent responsible, then why do they take it upon them selves to ban people if ngu isnt responsible to begin with? i know..they should be banned of course,, but its like a double negative, NGU wont take responsibiltiy, but if a scam happens..theyll ban the person, making it their obligation to get involved...it just makes things way to complicated when it comes to this forum and community, as a whole we wont tolerate scammers which is good, but if it was only vbux, it can be managed alot easier, if u get scammed real money, ur not getting it back...even if it was 5$ for a challenge lobby...instead of dealing with all the issues that stem from real money(besides donating) ngu shouldnt allow it...id like to see it gone...but i am for official threads or tournies that require money as long as the mods have a majority vote..this hampers scammers and promotes inter connectivity among mods which makes them more of a team instead of being branched in certain areas...just my opinion as usual

At least I can fight
I feel like some things deserve to be paid real cash for and other things just vBux. We will never stop using real money to buy things especially legit accounts on the top of the leaderboards and such.

Yeah, As Luke said we should keep an eye on this.
