Since more and more people are getting scammed, and dont have the proper proof to get their items back, i decided to make this guide for everyone, especially usefull for begginers.
To make a screenshot, simply press ur
PrintScreen button on ur keyboard. Don't use other methods because only this way the Screenshots are "
stamped" with a time stamp that tells us when were they taken. After u take the Screenshots, you can find them on ur Mornia Online Season 4 Folder, usually
C:\Program Files\Mornia Online Season 4
Here goes:
Lets say u are selling a FO WIND RING, and u make a post:
/post S>FO WIND RING
some one gives u a PM from
X and says he will give u something for it.
step 1: make an SS(screenshot) so that it shows exactly what you are selling/trading/buying etc, and the offer u have agreed to, in our case player
X, if u cant get both the phrases(ur post and his reply) in one SS, make 2 different SS, one with ur post and the other with his reply.

step 2: after u talk with
X, and u decide where u will meet to make the trade and u agree on how it will happen.
Make one or more SS with the entire conversation with him (KEEP THE CHAT WINDOW FULLY OPENED SO WE CAN READ EVERYTHING).
In particular
cases, in which u will need 2 or more trades to do it, lets say that u are trading the ring for 2 FULL TRADES OF JOH and u agree that u will give him the ring in the first trade, and then he will give u the second ft joh. MAKE ONE OR MORE SS WITH THE ENTIRE CONVERSATION U HAD WITH HIM.
NEVER GIVE THE OTHER GUY SOMETHING, WITHOUT U GETTING ANYTHING(EXAMPLE: U BUY THE FO RING FOR 2 FT JOH, AND HE SAYS HE WILL GIVE U THE RING ON THE SECOND TRADE, TALK WITH HIM, AND AGREE THAT THE RING WILL LEAVE ON THE FIRST TRADE).
IN THIS CASE WASN'T NECESSARY BECAUSE EVERYTHING WOULD FIT IN 1 TRADE!
step 3: this is it now, the actual trade will happen. u put the ring, and he the fo wind pendant, make SS with the actual trade windows and the mouse over the items (in this case the fo ring and the fo wind pendant), and ONLY AFTER U CHECK THE ITEMS U SELL/BUY/TRADE, hit the ok button. After this open ur inventory and see if u have the item/items and make another ss with the mouse over them item/items.

step 4(optional): make one or more SS with the conversation after the trade.

Same thing goes if u are buying something.
NOTE: TRY AND FINISH UR BUYING/SELLING IN ONLY 1 TRADE, THE MORE THEY ARE, THE BIGGER CHANCE U WILL HAVE TO GET SCAMMED OR SOMETHING.
IF U ARE LAGGY, THE SERVER IS LAGGY, OR ANY OTHER THING THAT U DONT LIKE, DO NOT MAKE THE TRADE, AND WAIT FOR EVERYTHING TO BE NORMAL.
ALSO BE SURE WHEN MAKING THE SS FOR THE CONVERSATION TRADE, IF THE OTHER GUY SAYS HE WILL COME WITH A DIFFERENT CHARACTER, MAKE SURE U GET THAT.
TAKE YOUR TIME WHEN MAKING A TRADE, DO NOT HURRY UP JUST BECAUSE THE OTHER GUY TELLS U TO, JUST TAKE UR TIME AND DO IT RIGHT, CAUSE IF U HURRY UP, U CAN DO SOMETHING WRONG.
IF YOU ARE TRADING EXPENSIVE ITEMS, TRY NOT TRADE WITH NOOBIE CHARACTERS. THEY ARE EASY TO DELETE AND SOMETIMES CAN'T BE RELATED TO THE MAIN ACCOUNT OF THE SCAMMER.
Hope i havent forgot anything, and if i remember anything ill add it, this is the basic trade guide, simple and safe, no fraps involved, cause a begginer in mu, can barely make an ss.
NOW, THERE'S ALSO A FRAPS VIDEO, IN CASE OF FRAPS IT'S MUCH MORE TRUSTWORTHY BECAUSE WE CAN SEE EVERYTHING THAT HAPPENED. MAKE THE VIDEO IN A GOOD RESOLUTION SO THAT WE CAN ACTUALLY SEE THE TEXT LINES AND UNDERSTAND EVERYTHING THAT HAPPENED IN THE TRADE.
HERE'S AN EXAMPLE:

Best solution is ALWAYS using both fraps and screenshots. (Fraps with the actual trade, and screenshots with the entire conversations)
Search for fraps on google and u will find free versions of fraps that allow u to record up to 30 seconds. Just keep in mind that if the trade takes more than 30 seconds, u must hit the record button again after the 1st 30 seconds & so on...
