Just because you reply to someone who was on-topic does not make your post on-topic.
But I still told him he got scammed... is that not help?
Even if part of your post was on-topic, you still get a warning due the off-topic part. It's the same thing which happened with Neo 2 times and he can't admit that he was wrong. That's why he keeps blaming us for his last warnings. How to avoid this? If you have any info that would help in the case(screenshot for example), post ONLY the info. If you don't have anything, stay away from that section.
Why can't we post something relevant with some off-topic input?
There have been many cases of posting something relevant with some off-topic input but most aren't warned. Shouldn't it be that if part of your post was on-topic, it will be on-topic since it's partly on-topic?
1: I got scammed
2: You should do this bla bla bla bla bla. Hey I wanna kill you, jk.
1: Yeah, I should have done bla bla bla bla bla.
But then I'm not saying the staff are wrong, and I agree that MagicXR should be warned. He shouldn't have posted that since it doesn't help the scam. No matter what, a deal is a deal. If I want nothing for my Rare Item, so be it. As long as I really want to and we agree to have a deal. If you don't follow the deal, you scammed, and get banned.
But on second thought, his post could've been an advice so that the scammed doesn't get scammed again by another scammer as he knows what regular scammers would do. But on another thought, he should've PM'ed it to him.
It was still a off-topic post anyway, he deserves the warning and so that he hopefully never does it again.
