try again.

for someone so "thorough" and mess up major details, only leads to one thing.

You thought OP had BPO's & were ready to check them in the future, when his OP says he is buying researched prints.

drivel? if want to read that, please read your candlestick thread.

We had a discussion about his lack of BPOs and how ideally these IPOs are done by locking BPOs at a 3rd party.
The OP can confirm this point.

The rest - of course - you throw statements without having been there but that's not unexpected off yours.

I have to decide whether to consider CCP Quant's positive comment on that thread or yours.
Let me see: a person who worked in banks and now is in CCP economy team or a one-new-troll-alt-a-year warm breather?

Lol that was an EXAMPLE and was completely unrelated with this IPO X

I have NO idea if the OP can factually manufacture even a Rifter.

when you put yourself in the public spotlight and expect ppl to trust you as a 3rd party, you shouldn't post lies, or rush your posts, ppl are excpecting the truth from so-called 3rd parties, not a bunch of rubbish when you get called out.

chribba/grendall is a good one to follow, i suggest getting posting lessons from them.

I did not tell any lie nor rush anything.
What the investees tell me is their only choice to make it publicly detailed or not. Nor I am going to detail how / if / when they had / have / will have BPOs unless they allow me to, all those informations can be used against them by competitors.

Moreover had I been to perform an audit on him, I'd be held to publish all the investment relevant information, but I am not, therefore what I talked with him about is going to stay strictly private unless he decides differently.

Sounds like a circus to me. Post your API and link your spreadsheets or don't ask the public for money. If this was real, he wouldn't even ask people he doesn't have relationships with. No one would, it wouldn't make sense. People don't spread the wealth. Especially when the wealth is more than what they have or would stand to make. Until CCP implements changes to the way shares function the only measuring stick of trust is your personal relationship with the individual running the fund. Anything else, including the entire 'secondary market' is and always will be a scam by default.

well, your post, mislead more than just me (i didn;t call you out on it originally, did I), when read in conjunction with the OP there is an obvious mistake. He didn't have a pos/BPO/characters, nor any idea how to manufacture , from the read of the OP & the subsequent responses, regardless of how confident & detailed your conversation was.

Your post implies he does, thus putting you in the precarious position, that you are in now, defending accusations of being in leagues with OP.

you posted without reading the offer.

He posted the offer after I told him to, so I am quite aware of what he wants to do. Now try running some imagination and figure out how somebody could be checked for BPOs (existance, research done so it's not a total fake etc) even without having them in his "immediate ownership". I won't say more, because that'd really go against his privacy. Oh, and notice the "if" at the beginning.

we don't need to check for BPO's

its in his OP, his business plan is to buy BPO's, not be checked for them, no-where in the OP he mentions an existing production line. which is again, what only you (not OP) are inplying.

I am quite sure the Investors would like to have BPOs checked even if it's not "needed", since it's a "step ahead" compared to a full total nothing. All my post content was not in the original prospectus which was thought before the in game convo (so of course there's no mention of it) and is optional and only if I get asked for it.

I can't skip this thread :(

While Jerry is being a fail alt of Syds who tends to lose badly fit Ravens while being a null-sec pet running around pointing fingers at anyone possessing better ideas and income than his own I declare invalidity of his points further on.

I shall seal this statement with RECTANGULAR *hint-hint* ribbon on his foreheads shall I meet him in person, which I doubt will ever happen, therefore you'll have to take my "reputable" word for that.

..My small ammount of time in nulsec on this pilot doesn't mean much to this topic of conversation.

But I will tell you what means much: you taking time out of your day to find tidbits about me. I'm assuming you we're looking for scams or scam attempts. Hell, I bet you would have been happy to find serious accusation thrown at me. But alas, all of your snooping only yielded a few silly Raven fits I lost in nulsec. Sorry Claire.

And another thing that matters. Saveritrader has publicly stated that any future production IPO's will be fully secured.

Chalk one up for the good guys! Lets look at the scoreboard, shall we?

Watchdogs - 1
Shills - 0

VV, Pepridge is doing what he has set out to do: make ridiculous statements and then spend all effort required to defend those ridiculous statements.....by saying more ridiculous statements.

VV, I think you and a majority of MD know what you are and what you stand for.

..Jerry.

Don't take the portion about you in my post as an insult. I like what you do. Your antagonistic just for its own sake. Problem is, everyone knows it and for the most part disregards your posts. I just think it doesn't serve any purpose other then to give you and a few other readers some amusement. Which is cool if that's your thing.

On that note, I also like what I LIKE IT does. I like his corp name also. I'd like I see his character more fleshed out in the upcoming weeks. It would be great if some of the people he invested with would post his mails.

Not sure why this post has been deleted from the forums but I try reposting it:

interesting, did you look up the old cosmoray threads? where MD "audited" him & he went on to scam right? no-one seems to care now, coz the MD of then has quit only a few left.


How does it relate with "we have argued before about this exact thing, like when you audited a few scams (enabling them) a few years back."
I only read that a guy (who used to be hugely trusted more than me newbie at the time) decided to breach the TOS and post his full API key on his own initiative.

Edit:

Also, for what I know there's no way for an audit to prevent a scam. It's entirely possible that a guy makes himself "formally OK" by training the required skills and creating API activity records by doing what he claims. All I (or anyone else) can do is to read the records and see if they match the claims, if he fabricated his legitimacy it's not something anyone can know. Until CCP starts delivering mind reading APIs at least. But since you seem to keep sand in your vag for so long to recall and misrepresent years old threads, then you should also be able to recall the dozens of threads where this trite dead horse (audits = information and deterrant, audits <> security).

Yet again, your perception of reality is better locked away for good. Yeah, I spent 0 minutes 23 seconds to dig through your KB, then I had a solid 5 minutes of rolfing so it was worth it. And for your info, EVERY WH player will instantly search for KB of person in question. I'm surprised hard knocks inc. didnt' teach you that. Roll

About security requirement I told Sav before he even created this thread and therefore much before you even opened your mouth. I also recommended contacting VV cause I'm in no way an expert on shares, which apparently brought a lot of trouble to VV. Ouch Oops

And as for watchdogs Lol Thanks for the laughs you're giving.
You've missed two real scams last week and ASSUMED and ACCUSED a legit businessman to boredom.
Yeah, go, go, watchdogs... chasing your own tail.

In Sav's OP he states there will be no security. He makes the same statement a few posts later.

So eh though you told him "before he even created this thread," it wasn't until I, and other posters, opened our mouths that he changed his mind.

This was a discussion and it's okay to suggest things / change minds / take different courses of action (my statements were based on info I have which was noted in the post that caused your erection, and it's not my problem with you having less info), but you're seeing scammers everywhere, pointing fingers, accusing and insulting people you don't even know. Your standard are low and you're deemed unworthy of continuation of further discussion.

dismissed, dog.
