Which is what I said in terms of calling it a troll post. INB4L...

When the going gets tough the Gankers get their CSM rep to change mechanics in their favour.

Thats a nearly decade old scam, put up 2-3 fake contracts with legit stuff (Already taken before they are even linked.) then place the one with the fake goods in there so people are too stupid to actually read it before accepting it. Didn't think people actually fell for that one, guess I was wrong.

Unlike RL, EVE isn't a nanny-state, coddling you and protecting YOU from the consequences of YOUR actions.


Fake contacts and scams are easy to spot and avoid.... just take the time to READ and THINK.

It's your ISK, if you aren't going to take the time/effort to protect it, why should CCP?

The Dirty Rejects are recruiting!
Come play with me...... I like being played with!

Why are some people seemingly committed to remove human emotion from this game? That's what makes eve, real. Without people being people, the game would just be a collection of mechanics like every other game. Freedom is scary to some people, but those who can appreciate it aren't able to find this level of freedom in any other game.

This post brought to you by CCP's alpha forum alt initiative. Playing the eve forums has never come cheaper.
