For what it's worth, I sent him the 60k for the Icon of Lem, and the icon was in my mailbox the next time I logged on. I had enough so that a loss of 60k would've stung, but it wouldn't have crippled me financially. I would've been much more cautious in a more traditional MMO, but I made a conscious decision to be a little more open here; it's a game about singing to butterflies and hugging people with "emotional bears." If I can't trust people here, I won't be able to trust them anywhere. It worked out in the end. =)
