Ok for the past few days Ive been seeing players trying to sell ranches to other players. It's really annoying me because I hate for those players to be scammed. Can we report the people for trying to sell ranches or what. Because with how players are now, they would say stay out of their business and all that. Im just saying. Im trying to help the players from getting billions taken from them. |

It's not like the people buying are victims. If they think a ranch is worth the buying price, then what does it matter if they spend their money on it? Their money isn't being stolen. They're giving it in a fair trade. |

Selling ranches is against the rules, so if you want to report, go ahead and do so.:) |

DixieCup is correct. Ranches are to be bought only directly from the game. Players trying to sell them are breaking the rules by trading on a promise which you can report when you see someone doing this. Do not directly confront the person threatening to report them, just file the report and let the administrators take care of it. |

What SwanSong and DixieCup said, and players simply can't sell ranches to others. They don't actually own the ranch the game does. Players can Only purchase a ranch from the game.
Once a sub has expired, the ranch remains for 30 days or so. Once it is available any person can walk into the ranch and buy it.
So lets say a sub has expired 30 days ago and the ranch is available... You pay a player for the ranch but don't have anything so, then you have to pay the game for the ranch so that you own the ranch. Um, nope. Scam there.
It's also against the rules to sell ranch locations, since any player can look for themselves. If you wish to help someone find an available ranch, that's fine. But you may not charge for that. Again, anyone walking into an unowned ranch that is subbed and doesn't already have a ranch can buy it. |
