It's not scammy, just in poor taste and not something that should be allowed.

Of course it's a scam - you don't actually believe that poor whateverhisname is wants to the money to go see his girlfriend/support his sick kid/whatever do you?

Real requests for financial assistance don't use anonymous online games as their communication forum.

Just given the media it's 99% likely to be a scam.

You have no idea what gofundme is, do you? Not everyone on the internet is trying to scam you, grandma. They're just asking for money.

Yeah no one has ever lied while asking for your money, right?

I am quite familiar with both the internet and gofundme. While there are plenty of legitimate gofundme requests - many are scams and quite a few have publicly been revealed to be so. If not 100% outright lies - there is a lot of truth bending that goes on.

Plus begging for money from complete strangers online is always in bad taste. If you need help for real issues - go to your family or friends and if you don't have any that can help then the next best bet is local community and community organizations.

If its not a critical need (i.e medical, housing, food) then maybe consider getting a job like most of the people you are trying to con. I will help (and have done so) those in legitimate need but crying poor me and trying to con money from strangers in an online game should result in an immediate permanent account ban. It's pathetic.

Gofundme is not Kickstarter. It's a donation and you aren't expecting anything in return.

Your point? If I, a single gay man, made a GoFundMe asking for help feeding my wife and 3 kids, wouldn't I be scamming?

Its on the internet! It must be true!
