Not sure if you're trying to educate me or the OP, but if the former, no need - i've been around the block. And of course the spoiler wont stop others, because by definition they wont read this thread. I just wanted to put him out of his misery. Mercy is one of my weaknesses.

thing with goole spreadsheets is you can manip the data anytime u want with no accountabilty.

thats why ppl post details here.

you know to show tracibity.

For 5 billion ISK I will show you how you should have run this scam properly which would have had much better results.
Scamming is an art. Doing a sloppy job brings scamming into disrepute. You should be ashamed.

Thanks, but no. I'm not interested in scamming. And anyone that is brings their character into question, not to mention their real life personality.

There's nothing wrong with scamming in Eve??? Lol, sure, there's nothing wrong with depriving someone of their ISK so you can gain more. Speaks volumes of your moral compass. Just because something can be done doesn't mean it should. The way you feel about sloppy scamming is how I feel about scamming in general.

Na, I prefer to play and I'm enjoying the trolling

When I played World of Warcraft I used to kill animals, monsters, and people of opposing races because that was the primary method of progression in that game. Not only that but I use to loot their fresh corpses and take their possessions too. My wife still plays that game and when she kills an animal for her own advancement she then skins the still warm corpse and sells the hide, again for her own personal gain.

What we do in imaginary games, especially as our actions are steered by the mechanics the game developers put in place, does not necessarily reflect upon or real life personalities. It's a form of escapism, that why games have themes that encourage and evoke the imagination. Swords and spells, swashbuckling pirates on the high seas, disco spaceships in futuristic galaxies, alien races in conflict, cops and robbers shooting it out, soldiers at war.

Playing a game in a fantasy setting that involves conflict makes you no more a warmonger than watching a movie on the same subject. Watching a murder mystery, or playing a murder mystery game does not make you a murderer. To assert so would be a ridiculous extension well beyond logic.

Honesty has a value in Eve, and to play honestly or dishonestly in game has in game consequences. A known scammer will find it hard to engage with other players in game mechanics that requires trust. Some players will only scam on certain characters, and play other characters completely honestly. Then there is also the question of degree. If you see a player or character as completely honest or dishonest you are ignoring all sorts of subtleties of the human character.
I once had a very well known scammer loan me what to me was a very significant amount of ISK based on no more than "hey xxxxxxx1 lend me xxxxxxxxxxx ISK please" To me it was a fortune, to them it was probably an insignificant drop in the ocean. I was curious about how being a scammer they loaned the money so easily to someone they barely knew, but I paid it back anyway.
And coming at it from the opposite point of view, there are some well known honest characters in Eve, but this honesty is generally regarded as having limits. e.g. They will look after 10s of billions fine, but put 10 or 100 trillion ISK in their care, in one go and lets see if they are still honest?

I don't believe the world is as black and white as you so publicly profess. In my opinion most people who loudly and publicly profess to be completely honest are in reality probably high risk. I personally would much rather loan ISK to someone who knows their limits, especially if I know where those limits are too, than someone who thinks their virtue is beyond reproach, and makes a big public display of it. That's a recipe for disappointment, and i have no intention of being the one who picks up the tab for that lesson.

I also think your assertion than dishonest in game = dishonest IRL complete and utter illogical baloney, little more than attempt at public virtue signalling in the mistaken belief that it will make people trust you. In my case I trust you less for it, not more.
