Scamming is all I have...

I'm good at it and it's lucrative.

Sorry.

I don't want to sit for hours mining. That's boring.
I don't want to run missions. Shooting at reds crosses sucks.
I don't want to manufacture. It's a PITA. Seriously. You spend all of your time making crap and at the end of the day, traders make the most money off of the **** that YOU built....Plus profit margin sucks anyway.
I don't want to trade. Playing Plus-A-Penny all day isn't my style.


Scamming is all I have. It's fun. My heart skips a beat when I see that wallet flash or that contract pop up.

Take away scamming and I'm gone (and I know plenty others who feel the same). ISK is essential in this game, and most ways to obtain it make you want to lick windows, as it's probably more enjoyable. Scamming is the only profession that doesn't feel like a friggin JOB. I work all day, I don't want drudge work in my hobbies.

I'm just informing CCP of this minority, if they were unaware or possibly thinking of doing away with scamming in order to soften it up for other players. Scamming is a legitimate profession and should be maintained as such.

Pretty much this. Such a random post. I would say it was to draw attention to yourself, except your name is not unique and hard to remember.

You know what would make this thread more interesting? Please elaborate the details on how you carry out your various scams. We need more mimics who do it right.

From what happened to the canflipper and the ninja obviously. It was bad enough when I had to use GSCs and Noctis alts because I had no friends for my solo isk grinding, I hope CCP removes horrible people like you from my highsec so I never have to think about what I'm clicking on. Oh, and AWOX'ers too, they can all DIAF.

If removing the scamming profession meant cleaning up the game of the vile degenerates that plague local chat in any major trade hub then I am all for it. How many potential pilots have quit due to the abusive scamming mechanics of this game. Removing scum bags like the OP will only do the game some justice, something EvE really lacks.

You seem to be angry. How much did you lose?
