EVE General Discussion

First off let me start by saying I have been playing eve online for around 9 years, and for the last month and a half I have started scamming people. It is the first time in my eve career that I have ever taken anything from another player, that was not mine using anything aside from force. I have done alliance scams, double isk scams, market and contract scams, and pretty much any trick you can think of and I bet some you have not thought of. Today in only a month and a half I have made 32 BILLION isk...

So while I wait for my super carrier to be delivered I have a moment to reflect.

First off if you are a new player to eve. I highly recommend you take up scamming people. It is the only career in eve that has absolutely no risk what so ever. I have made 32 billion isk, and the whole time simply got to pvp on my main. Its like setting traps and going through out your day and just checking on them before you go to bed.

I will never again rat, mine, trade, or capture pocos and poses with my main and his corp. There is no reason for me to take up building stuff, or anything that generates isk; as a scammer I have an endless supply of isk. Its like growing fruit. You just have to go pluck it once a week and you will never go hungry.

On my main, I own a corp. A pretty well off corp with a bit over a hundred members, and I am an outstanding dood. My guys love me and we have a blast.... We get a few new people in asking me what they should do in eve to earn money. I have to restrain from telling them to start scamming and that bothers me.

I feel like where this is a valid and healthy mechanic, it is fundamentally flawed. It is the only way in eve that you can make ISK and never put anything on the line. Absolutely nothing at all! I have made 32 BILLION isk, with my alts and never had to undock aside from one time. I robbed a corp for 10 billion... and never even saw them in local. Sure it was there fault... but why do they have to take all the risk when I am the one that stands to be rewarded?

So then that presents a question.........

How long will it be before people stop playing the game and just try to scam each other out of their ISK? How long will it take before everyone catches on and realizes that there is no need for missions, mining or anything else when you can just scam on an alt?

I feel like I am honestly late to the buffet. I feel like the majority of long term players have already discovered this as a means of funding their accounts as well as their play toys.. ohh and on that note.. I WILL NEVER HAVE TO PAY FOR EVE AGAIN! When it gets to the last week or so of my account.. I just scam someone for some isk and buy a plex. I have eaten good for my lunch breaks at work, all because I have 45 bucks extra a month.. Eve has become free to me! Ill let someone else pay for my account.. who knows it might be some of you reading this right now... HAHA DISABILITY ;)

Seriously guys, if you have not started scamming you really should! Why waste your time "working" why worry about complicated spread sheets, or risk assessment... just scam and then funnel the money to an alt... or a couple if you want to get paranoid and make sure its not obvious by looking at your API key.

Scamming isn't a power thing to me.. I don't enjoy taking whats not mine so easily... I get no kicks out of it. I suppose like most scammers say "its just business"... It is absolutely with out any doubt the easiest way to make isk in EVE.

Frankly I can't figure out if there is any other reason I would want to do anything else in eve that generates ISK and I bet if you guys gave it an honest try for about a week (it takes a couple days to get into the groove), you would agree completely with me!

The whole post is a lie.


edit: damn, tippia ! lol

Anyway ... it's still a lie. Trying way too hard to convince us that you are what you say you are.

some one tried to scam me the other day.

it seems the failure of notec hit some people harder than they'd like to admit. especially when their corp title was "pos fueler".

send me your 32bil, and ill double it, i promise

Meh isnt much for me

an average goon would get that amount in a month

righte?.....Righte?

Oh... well then I will leave the scamming tutorial to you my good sir for you are far greater then I!

Not that I am agreeing with the OP, but you said he is trying to hard to convence people he is what he says he is... However it sounds like to me you are trying to really hard to convence people he is not what he says he is...

I once sold an Amarr Navy Badger.

You know what would be awesome....

If you posted a link to a picture of your 32 billion isk wallet.

Or you could just send me 100 million and I'll vouch for you on the forums that I saw it.

Fine then. A screen shot of his super carrier. Preferably one with the system location showing.
