Fanfest scammers

[Ranaku]

Is there a Tl;dw?

Two people scammed their 6y old static with fake fanfest tickets and hotel reservation and then bailed.

Oh yeah and both Lalafell, as a fellow dunesfolk this makes me so proud. Only we can sell our mother and stab our best friends in the back after years just for some sweet sweet gil!

This made me giggle. That people somehow missed the joke is strange, but we're talking about Stormpeaks.

This is what happens when you trust 6 year olds with money.

It actually aint funny tho, but sure buddy, nice "joke"

Gotcha, making fun of two scammers isn't funny or nice and we should be all depressed and cry about the scammed peoples losses!

And i am not your buddy, friend!

Hopefully police reports have ended up filed.

The problem is that it doesn't come across as making a joke at the expense of the scammers. It comes across as making a joke at the expense of their victims.

Exactly my thoughts

I literally called the scammers backstabbing people and people who would sell their mother for money. I know the "proud" part was the only thing that Sophia read and then turned into a raging white knight who had to defend the poor scammed people without even thinking for a second about the context.

To me every normal thinking person on this planet should know that this is a joke, especially after OP mentioned they are both lalafell players. Especially when i wrote it so over the top with the added "selling our mother" which wasn't even part of the drama and clearly negative towards the scammers.

But for some people irony and sarcasm is hard to understand, i am used to it.

There's one thing you failed to take into consideration.

Some people in this world approve of taking advantage of every opportunity to get ahead, regardless of how unethical or illegal it may be. They will use the same type of language that you use because they do take pride in being a "backstabber", etc.

A bit better to avoid sarcasm when not everyone "listening in" is going to know your real life personality.
