I'd rather just ban you for 3 days for posting again, IMHO, that might work better, as I guess you didn't get the last hint when your last post was deleted.

Sorry guys... Finals with school (end of quarter). Haven't been on the computer in a while.
But nyways, here's the facts.
-I was sitting on my computer chatting with people on msn and scripting when JoeyFeduka added me and messaged me asking me to teach him to script for 50$.
-It's not against the rules to make money teaching people to SCAR script outside of the forums from what I know. It's against the rules to sell stuff on the forums and advertise and stuff, but many great scripters here have bought/sold runescape gold and/or SCAR scripts for real life money or runescape money elsewhere.
-I didn't really read much of this topic because I have a ton of homework and stuff and I'm really busy.
-I taught JoeyFeduka many things about SCAR/SRL on msn, he learned a lot on his own, I helped him with a lot of questions he had, and the deal was that I'd teach him the things it takes to get into srl members, and whenever I was on msn I could answer any questions he asked me.
-once again, I wasn't even advertising this, JoeyFeduka (from what I know) added p1nky to ask if I was trusted or something, and then added me offering me 50$, which I took in exchange for the knowledge specified, and I fulfilled teaching him the knowledge specified.
-I'm sorry if you feel ripped off in any way, but you came to me, you gave me 50$, I spent hours teaching you about SCAR scripting, I taught you what I said I would + more, and I fulfilled the deal.
Anyways, to sum it all up, we made a deal on what I'd teach him for 50$, I fulfilled that deal, and now he may be having regrets making the deal. Not my fault, I didn't break the forum rules (from what I know), and nothing illegal, deceiving or tricky was done here, and I thought everything went smooth.
Sorry for any inconvenience and I'll be checking up on this thread for future posts if anybody has anything to add.
And please don't post anything quoting me if you didn't even finish reading my post...

Edit: and by the way, I didn't force joey in any way into thinking he needed a teacher to learn scripting. As stated above, he IM'd me without any type of contact before that time, and asked me to teach him for 50$, so we made a deal, and I said okay.
JAD what were the specific things your were to teach him? im just curious. and this sounds like another one of those stupid argument threads.
Before answering your question, I did read a little more of the thread and thought I'd say something in regards to some posts.
I didn't know it was a bad thing to accept 50$ for teaching somebody to script when even p1nky had advised him otherwise before me and JoeyFeduka even came in contact. I've been saving for a computer, somebody offered me 50$ for my time (which I probably spent about or over 10 hours of that time...).
I don't think this makes me a bad person, a scammer, or anything.
But
@CanadaMan, the deal was that in exchange for 50$, I would teach JoeyFeduka the basics of SCAR scripting and srl, and I would teach him the things, and give him the knowledge, to be able to make a script to become a srl member. I think Joey is regretting what happened and is looking for somebody to blaim, which would be me because I'm the one he gave the money to.
EDIT: And to the people saying "I don't believe JAD would do this" and "JAD wouldn't do this, he's not a scammer", there's a difference between Scamming and Exchanging. We made a deal to exchange knowledge/time to teach that knowledge for cash. You can't get mad if you think you made a bad exchange and then call it a scam.
hmm... my take on this...
if Joey OFFERED jad 50 bucks to teach him.... and jad taught him what he wanted.... then there is nothing wrong with that..
now if joey was like i wish you could teach me scar and srl scripting and jad was like 50 bucks its not scamming but just greedy...
either way he really didnt scam at worst its just greediness...
It's not greediness either... It's being offered 50 dollars for my time and knowledge and accepting. Teachers at school do it all the time, although you could probably learn english/math/science...etc. online by yourself without paying anyone (even though we'd have to pay with taxes for teachers any way... But you get what I mean).
P1nky can witness that he came to me anyways.
And to clear that Lord_Killer thing up RAM, Lord_Killler is me. That's (partially) my runescape name and I hated it and made this account after being on that one only a few weeks. I had told Boreas about it a while though.
isnt jad fault at all
its just that joey should have thought smart, and made a agreement what he should teach.
btw jad give him atleast 1-2 weeks training 50$ is alot of $$$
Topic has been settled.
Jad has fulfilled the agreement as stated
