I think i know wat u mean, as my then-teen nephew played this online game Maple story ard 10 yrs bk n was supposed to trade i think gacha items by dropping his item but the other player reneged n in a fit of rage my nephew threw his iphone across the room where his computer was in n wrecked it(the phone, not the computer tat he was playing the game on). Luckily his phone was repaired (not sure if warranty covered it or had to pay for repair, his dad/my bro dealt with it). [I cant imagine if u traded valuables/physical items online, well i can but rather not think about it/suppress thinking of it] Ever since my policy is (1) dont play online games like maple story (2) if u deal/trade with other players/users online, never regret/risk too much in one transaction. If someone reneges, never deal/trade with tat player/user ever again. Fool me once, blah blah blah.
I only play low stakes mobile games
EVER, n i nvr made the same judgement call tat my nephew did of thinking a trade will go through
UNTIL it happens. If it does great, if not then lesson learned. I think for teens(n others, gacha items in onine games are serious business n hv lots of investment attached emotionally so i understand if yr past experience in such has been memorable/unfavorable. Srry u had bad experiences trading online. Im an old fogey so i distrust online/internet trading/buying for physical items/valuables, as ks cards cant be sold/bought monetarily, im able to collect for a long while now(tho i hv been irrational/emotional abt card trades before in the 2plus yrs since the card game has been on n iv been collecting) the upcoming april fools event(if it occurs at all) might be nerve wracking as i might not be active during trading hrs/only half the time ill be active when im not at work/asleep.oh well thems the breaks i guess.
