Hello, fellow pilots

I want to learn more about this scamming thing. I heard you can make a lot of gold by scamming pilots from other guilds. How exactly do you do that? Is station scamming better than entering other people's quests? I just heard of an incursion scam where other pilots stop healing up the warriors, they die, and then you get to collect their shiny loots...

...any ideas for where to tart?

The best way to scam Gold I think is to do it in the bazaar. Take something like regular "Wolf Pelt" and sell like it is "Dire Wolf pelt" and you can make some good Gold. Another way is to join a guild and eventually get access to the Guilds vault and then take their supplies.

If you are in lowsec or 0.0, sometimes you can scan down someones quest and then just kill the last boss. The other thing you said about the Incursion map, and not healing the fighters would work-but only if the other Clerics also didn't heal the guy. We are forming a party later if you want to join, just evemail me. Btw which server you play on? I am assuming Tranquility.

Methinks Darius has far too much "game that shall not be mentioned here" background information to be making this up. Ugh

Many years ago as a youngling I did not like having to share the bath water with my siblings.

I would intentionally not orally masticate pea nor sweetcorn to any sufficient level prior to submitting it down the gullett for digestion into my gastric region.

Thus when i would without prior warning empty my bowels into the pool of water it gave the false pretence that the intact nature of the vegetetables that spawned were indeed a random act of nature when indeed there was underlying sinister intentions playing out.

While one might argue to the downside of this disception at least the others quickly gtfo the bath and I was left alone in the bath water with some floating entities to play with.

Getting people to read this was a big enough scam to think you already know what you are doing.
