An important update:

Due to a specific person being a complete child, comments are going to be screened by default.

This is only temporary, and I apologize for the inconvenience- this is going to be a pain in the ass for me, too, but multiple people have come forward about fears of doxxing, and this is the only way to make sure any doxxing is contained.

(This basically will force the doxxer to make a DW account to post any doxxing attempts unscreened, and will let me more reliably report them to DW staff/authorities.)

Again, I apologize, and will be working to unscreen comments as fast as possible, but I'm only one person.

(Vasemod has had some personal issues come up, so I am the only mod atm. Please bear with me until this bit of annoyance has passed.)

I really do not think that this would or should be considered a bad faith trade.

Staff have always been very clear and consistent that your ownership of a dragon ends the second it leaves your account. Lemon asked for a non tangible payment that could only be provided once the dragon left their account. They no longer had control over whether or not that dragon was bred. If Lemon wanted guaranteed reimbursement for this dragon, they should have gone about it in the appropriate ways.

It would be ridiculous for staff to get involved and potentially punish Wormwood. Even if the PMs are on site I would be very surprised if they responded to Lemon in any other way besides 'once a dragon leaves your account it is no longer yours'.

It sucks when you lose dragons because of nest rentals or dragon lending, but if you're going to do these things you need to accept that staff have been very clear that they won't intervene.

Well, staff does have it in the books that taking dragons from rescues and the like repeatedly as fodder is a punishable offense for poor faith trading even though the dragon left your account. The "not on your account, not your dragon" rule has wiggle room. I don't know if they'd wiggle on this, but there is written in the rules one area of wiggle.

In this case, everyone sucks, and this dude needs to shut up though.
