Hello all,

You all know iwantisk by now, i would like CCP to close down this website.

This website should be for each player to have a chance to win in a fair way, Wich its is not.

Its nothing more then "legit" isk stealing and transfering it to "alts". 99 % of winners of the highest prices are bankers or the alts of the bankers.

ive been investigating for the last month and i can say that in the "stellarpool" its always the same characters that win the highest prices.

I also would like to bring to light of illegal isk selling by bankers, I for one has been offered isk for real money on facebook.
Prove can be provided to CCP if asked for.

So i vote for closing down this "scam" website.

Allow me to summarize the original post for anyone with attention span issues.

WHINE complain gambling is unfairly tilted towards the house and people that gamble compulsively win a lot because they've thrown away their lives and their life savings in money

also someone on facebook who I don't know allegedly offered me something that may or may not have been RMT

If somebody really offered you RMT, you should report them to CCP.

As for getting scammed out of ISK, well...

If you are suspecting RMT you should contact customer support with a petition, not inform the world about it via this forum.

As others have said, the RMT you should definitely report. It's quite common for these types of sites to launder isk through shills for RMT, it's how they make cash from it.

As for the rest of it, pretty much every EVE gambling site is a scam. It's not against the rules to scam, so they won't get shut down for that, so pretty much just don't play them and advise others not to either. While a few players get lucky and win some isk, a significant portion of the winnings go to shills (who also claim to be "normal" winning players), so playing is pretty much feeding them the profit they want.

The house always wins.

Scams are an integral part of EVE, including those which use third party websites. As long as there is nothing really shady involved (like with SOMER), they're fine.

You've left this website poorer, but wiser. You won't have any dealings with it in future. Oh, and you have given away your ISK voluntarily, so CCP has nothing to do with it.

Just because you lost doesn't mean it's a scam....

That's not how it works.

What should I do when I spot RMT (Real Money Trading) explains what to do and where to report.

This is team security would be responsible, too, and again you'll find an email adress where you can contact them.

Weird scam. I'm up 400 mil in winnings and 500mil in promo codes and a rattlesnake.

Not really sure how you can prove someone is a "shrill" or not.

Seems like the op is ether butt hurt over their lost or works for a competing site

If someone offered you ISK for RL cash, you should screenshot it and report to CCP.


To the other point: if you're stupid enough to go and get your ISK scammed at a gambling website then you deserve all you get. I have no sympathy whatsoever for people who gamble ISK and lose it, whether the gambling website is legitimate in its practices or not.
