Gift your friends Armas items like joker boxes etc. eg.
> go to armas
> click on armas item and next to buy button "gift to friend"
> click gift to friend, enter friends name and they receive the gift and get a notification.

This feature MUST require the recipient to actually accept the gift for it to work without potential for abuse. Being forced to accept gifts from strangers who can then charge-back the purchase and potentially sink your account is not an acceptable state of affairs for this or any multiplayer game with a cash shop.

I'm all for ARMAS gifting, but only if LO can implement that as a safeguard.

Hi there,

We are working to bring this back, but as @Nitecorrectly pointed out, it needs to work differently than before to eliminate abuse.
BTW - even a player who actively chooses to accept the gift can still find themselves in a situation where the sender claims fraud.

Thanks,
Matt

Doesn't the charge-back affect the user who calls that, instead of the guy who received an item via a gifting system?

Well okay then it's kind of sh*t. IMHO it shouldn't affect the one who received the gift, though this could lead to abuse as in tricking somebody to give you a gift with some kind of promise, then leaving them to deal with the scam. Edited by Solista2050

Though Armas Gifting was awesome, ty G1, but this shows all the reason for respect for the professionalism (and honesty) with LO. You think a feature through so you don't let your players suffer its issues. Edited by N66

Well, scammers used these 'tricks' so that people they don't like would get banned, if I'm not mistaken

this would lead to people creating accounts and doing chargeback gifting to their mains for free armas items
