Does GOON pay CCP? They seem to get away with a lot and nobody cares.

If only this were fake, like I said his application is merely in limbo. I don't know why he does not finish everything so he can get the lokis and fitted megathron delivered.

yes, a 2008 character with a corp history and signs of regular activity is certainly a "goon alt"

So he contracted his stuff before he got accepted?
This is why I haven't applied. I'm on SA, I am eligible. I just don't fully trust you guys yet but you have a public apology for jumping on the Goon hate band wagon.

All one has to do is read the tablets of stone from one Aryndel Vyst. Reading original posts in recruitment threads and wikis helps too. For anyone that cant be assed to do that- I've got some fully upgraded systems in Deklein and Tribute to rent you, along with discreet supercap production.

You send your self hate mail then petitioned it? Shocked
Because you sure sound like some kid who got hurt and cried about it.


People get scammed in EVE every day. Scamming belongs within the game and is officially approved by the makers of EVE.

After 4 years playing this game I would think you should know that by now. But because people like you (and me)Oops fall for it, the scamming keeps on going.

So you lost a few space pixels. **** happens, just move on and shrug it off. By posting here you gave your scammers icing on their cake.

There are bigger suckers out there? I suppose, tears are after all water - they dry out when exposed to time.

Apparently, a lot of people have gotten into their heads that MIttens is a well-known and trusted third party for Titan sales…

…so yes. Much, much bigger. Lol

How do you possible afford a titan and manage to have never read the forums?

Any spelling, grammatical and punctuation errors are because frankly, I don't care!!

I don't usually meta Sky as a meat shield.
Can I run cap production in M-O? It's just so much easier to get parts in being so close to Jita and all.

Now that all the kiddies have had their fun and laughs, on to a more serious matter.

Those that laughed about saying suing has been overly used, actually yes it is legal to sue someone from things that happen in a video game. Just like Facebook, there was a local guy from my state that posted on FB that he felt like blowing up a school he was so mad. A concerned parent called the police they arrested the guy the next day, but those concerned parents did not send their kids to school that day because of what he said. They sued the guy for their kid losing education time and yes this being a place of where you can make a buck doing anything, he had to pay the parents for loss education time.

There is also group of people who buy game accounts from gold farmers and when their account gets banned from buying it, they simply recall the money and when paypal refuses to give them the money back they sue the people they bought the account from. Even tho it states in the EULA it is against the rules, the way the court seems to work here they are still awarded money from the guys they bought the account from.

Sad part is, they have won numerous amounts of times and they continue to get away with it.

So yes, there are people who play video games just to make a buck over harassment and sad thing is that it is legal and ties up the court system over stupid non-important things rather than all the important cases. But, if it makes a buck then people will do it just to get a dollar from someone else.

Approved because they are too lazy to clean it up. Nothing else seems to justify why such a mechanic would be included in an MMO. Not even the "Harsh Environment" lingo you nerds enjoy passing around. It's just messy and bad for business.

The really funny part is that our own Wiki tells people that we do not openly recruit or charge security deposits or ask people to hand things over.

Whats even funnier is that ive seen these scams play out, and one goon will even be saying "dont listen to the *******, hes a lying git", and the person STILL pays the fee and contracts stuff. seems most goons go out fo their way to inform people when they are getting lifted, people are just to moronic/illiterate to see/read.
