About Myself

First off this is my trading alt, I have been playing EVE off and on for a few years now with my main focus being PVP and wormholes. I have just returned from a break and need to build up my funds again. I gave most of my stuff away to corp mates when I left and have very little to my name in the way of assets at the moment.

I have used station trading in the past as a way to fund my pvp habits and have had quite a bit of success. I station trade so that there is no risk of loss by ganking. Inter region and inter hub trading has also netted me quite a bit of profit in the past but as I have very limited finances at the moment I have decided on the safer station trading model for my business currently. This will change once I have built my funds up a bit and can comfortable afford to take a loss if it happens.

Loan requirements

What I am experiencing currently is the lack of funding is preventing me from capitalizing on certain opportunities I have come across in the market due to the fact that I do not like risking more that 10% of my worth on a single trade item.

Now I would like to go ahead and request a 2 - 3 bil loan as this will get me going a lot faster, but I have been reading the MD forum for a number of years and know that a first time loan request with no collateral is very risky and not likely to be filled. the risks are just to great to be acceptable to most people understandably thus I make the below request.



Loan amount: 500 mil
Loan term: 2 weeks
Interest: 10%
collateral: None


I have currently shown more than a 10% return in less than a week and am confident that I would be able to make an even bigger return with more funds available. My account is paid by out of game means so there is no risk of running out of game time due to not being able to afford a plex.

The aim is to build up my funds so I can get back into pvping and go back to living in a wormhole. This loan will make that process a little faster. hopefully then I will have a safety net and can take up inter.

If you have any questions or require more information please feel free to contact me via evemail or post here.

☑ Uncollateralized loan
☑ using <31 day old character to ask for loan instead of years old character
☑ Gave away all possessions, no favours to call in
☑ Terrible name
☑ No proof of anything

Oh, before I forget.

☑ Yet another copy paste job

I like the "I got you" tone in your post :), can't wait for your "1-up" attempt of a response.
Thank you for pointing out everything anyone who is lending ISK would see at first glance (of course other than the copy paste).
If my request matches with what someone else is requesting then I don't see any reason to write my own, the person from who I copied could of made what he said up and pretty much has as much creditability as me (if we are strictly looking at the post and nothing else).

As a new/returning player getting 500M allows a quick start into trading without having to spend a week or two achieving that ISK, making 50M with 500M is child's play. However starting with 50M and trying to get to 500M trading (which is really now the only reason I came back) will take time and even if I decided to make an alt to farm plexes, kill rats, explore, etc. I would have to waste a good bit of time not doing what I find fun.

500M is obviously not a large sum of money for an older player and definitely not a lot for someone willing to risk it on someone through a loan. As I am untrusted, making an even smaller investment is an option.

+1 to Elizabeth. I don't know how you find those copy posts so fast but it is really funny when you call these guys out.

Wow, you must be one lazy dude. A lot of the credibility comes the post, and how the OP decides to formulate his loan request. Yours is straight up the worst I've seen.

Although, I have money to risk, and I may still be willing to invest.

What do you do in real life?

Simply posting with your main would have raised your chances.

Copy-pasting shows that you're lazy, which is not what people are looking to invest in, and with a 31 day old char you have 0 incentive to pay the money back.
You burned this char, I'd suggest doing some research before you try your next "clever" scam.

I really rather get a jump start in trading and it's obvious that I'm not going to get a loan so I went and bought a PLEX. Thanks for the responses everyone.
