Someone said they were gifting houses for treasure cards and I reported him for doing it. But later i thought that you might be able to gift them some how. If I did report him wrongly, will I get banned? :-(If anyone knows please tell me.

Because false reporting can be construed and/or used as harassment of other players, we’d like to take a moment to ensure you are aware of what does NOT fall under the category of a reportable offense:

“S/he falsely reported me” or reporting someone for false reporting (2 wrongs don’t make a right)

“Won’t leave my house” (pick your friends wisely and avail yourself of the non-porting option)

“Being rude” (We’re sorry, we can’t enforce good manners. Use the ignore button liberally &/or change realms. It’s wholly up to you to choose to stay around someone that’s not nice to you.)

“Chain Stunning” (admittedly, it’s not much fun for the receiving team, but it’s not a violation of the game rules).

“Scamming” (KingsIsle will NEVER ask for treasure card(s) in exchange for a code. Trading “cards for codes” is done at the players’ own risk. Codes are either fully public or one time use)

“Spamming” (Although the Terms of Use mention spamming, it’s related to email/web posts. Yeah, it’s annoying in game and never of profound statement. Refer to “Being Rude”).

Nope. Houses are non gift items. Meaning they were trying to scam the people who don't know the game much into giving them the treasure cards they own. Then they just vanish running off with your hard earned treasure cards. So next time you see someone else doing that report away!

KI holds by the logic that these type of player scams are unreportable, as what you see in your screen is the trade itself.
These are called 'Trust-trades ', as you are promised something after the trade is completed.

Personally, I believe these players should be launched into space, but that's just me.

In short, it's a false report.

All things being equal - IE you don't have a record for swearing/asking for personal info/false reporting, you will likely just get a warning.

It's not something I'd suggest repeating, though.

As a general rule, if someone on the street is offering you a $20 pet/mount/house for a treasure card, they ARE LYING AND TRYING TO CON YOU.

Prove PT Barnum wrong and just say 'NO', then put them on ignore.
