Been reading about this 80 billion scam on k.com and now here.

This has really got me thinking about Eve, and the culture it has created. Now before I get trolled to oblivion, I have absolutely no problem with this scam or any other scam, it's within the rules, and everyone that play Eve has to accept that there are people who will take everything you own given half the chance and to me that is what makes Eve awesome.

What I actually have a problem with is they way that this has a) been publicized (at CCP's flagship event), and the pride the people who pulled this scam off have taken in talking about this not due to the assets, but because the person they did it to appears to have some pretty serious mental health issues. Again, I have no problem with the scam, just the way it's been handled/publicised.

It's certainly struck a nerve with me, nad I'm wondering what the rest of the community thinks about this. Have these guys gone too far?

If you are suicidal, you probably should not be playing Eve Online. You should be working with yourself, and your therapist, to get your life back on track and get happy.

Think of scams like these as a way Goons help out our troubled friends to make the right choice and liberate their assets so they can free themselves from the terrible grip this awful game has on their lives and remedy their situation.

Remember, Goons LOVE YOU!

I'm glad you like my imagined sword....

To a pagan it is a holy symbol as your cross or wafers perhaps
