Wait a second! You're the guy who did the why people make female characters thread. https://forums.eveonline.com/default.aspx?g=posts&m=3493962#post3493962

Let me guess, you want that 400mil to pay back your gender changing surgery?

Subject to collateral, I'd be happy to fill the loan.


But that first clause is probably going to be the problem, isn't it.

Ironically, the only person I ever gave an unsecured loan to was a Goon. He wanted 30 million ISK to start a planetary industry loop. He paid me back 40m ISK a month later, and I only had to ask him once. I felt so shocked by the fact that I found an honest Goon that I almost wrote a thread about it. I guess to be honest 30m ISK is such a small amount I'd probably give out a couple of unsecured 30m ISK loans to people I knew. Anyone who wanted more (or who I didn't know) would have to provide collateral. I'd have to work out interest rates, too.

Fast forward five years and I'd have hundreds of billions of other people's ISK and I'd be making dodgy speculations with it on market trends I didn't really understand, then I'd lose it all and the market would collapse. Then I'd dust off my hands, say "job well done" and pay myself a massive bonus with money that didn't belong to me.

They say art imitates life. EVE made that statement take on a depressing reality.

1) Fly to Jita
2) Buy a PLEX with IRL cash
3) Put it for sale at 1 ISK less than current lowest PLEX for sale at the station
4) Profit


You could sell a PLEX in about 20 minutes. Only a moron would loan 400M to some one day old character unless they knew them personally.

If you really need isk, you can ask Erotica 1. She's the only legit isk doubler in this game. Or you could buy 2 plex, send them to me as collateral and i will give the 400m loan you're asking.

If you're gonna scam, put some effort into it.

You've been playing EvE for 6 years and gate camping is the best idea you can come up with? XD

Corps that require you to pay ISK to get in aren't worth it. Plus most of them are a scam anyway.

If you cannot make a new start without first asking for a loan then you are doing it wrong.

Buy a PLEX like everyone else. You make CCP happy and the one who buys it off of you.

Try asking the Angel Project if you still think you have to. Not sure if the project is still around, but it is a charity and they give out PLEX and ships for players in need.

Loss is meaningful. Therefore is the loss of meaning likewise meaningful. It is the source of all trolling.

I have not bought a PLEX and still managed to make it.

I do loan ISK up to 80B (*) a pop and even have a loans service.


If the OP or others want money they just have to behave like people with a clue, with ability to google for eve loans and similar.

I was wondering if there was any corps ingame that act as a bank where I could take out a loan for 400m isk. Yes I know I could easily go earn it or buy a PLEX. BUT, I need it now, I will get the 400m back because it is only to be collateral for my first month in a corp and will be returned in full. I'd be willing to pay interest.

Thanks.

You claimed to be the OP of the "If you made a female character" thread, here: https://forums.eveonline.com/default.aspx?g=posts&m=3493962#post3493962

In a post three hours before that Sol Kal'orr made a remark about using female characters for scamming in the same thread, here: https://forums.eveonline.com/default.aspx?g=posts&m=3493345#post3493345

And now you come up with this story?

Coincidence?

Claiming that a day 1 female character is your new main and asking for a "loan" of 400m? Because you want to join a corp that you didn't name that asks for 400m collateral? And you claim you could "easily buy a PLEX" but you're asking for the 400m because you need the ISK "now" ??
Really ??? Roll

I think they should create a new section called investments and loans because that section is being abused imo :P

There isn't any market discussions going on there at all.

Yes I would happily accept Loans.

Anybody can loan me what ever amount they choose (so long as its domination's of 100mil) and I promise, Cross my heart and hope to be spanked until my bottom goes purple that it will be spent in a timely fashion :)

If you are serious, 400mil is pocket change to me, if u want, I can do your loan for you, but I would require collateral (Assets etc) in return, doesn't matter where they are (As long as they are accessible stations)

Me neither. Anyone asking for a loan without offering a collateral is a beggar.

You need to borrow money for collateral? I'll lend you the money but I'll need collateral on the loan.

As noted by others loans in eve don't really work unless both sides totally trust each other.

Otherwise,

1) I have an alt setup a request for a loan.
2) I transfer the loaned isk to my main (on a different account)
3) I don't log in with that alt for "some time"

There's no way to enforce the repayment and that alts name just becomes mud, so I sell it in the bizarre create a new one.
It'd be nice if there were a way to implement this but it's eve and there are far too many ways to get out of paying.

It's why I stopped bothering with ipo's too, nice idea, shame you can't seek revenge when things go rubbish.

There is too much scum in EvE to even consider loaning someone isk that you don't personally know and trust. This goes a million times more for some day old player. Anyone in their right mind is going to see scam written all over it. Those that don't, well, they deserve to be scammed. Shocked

There used to be banks and such, but of course no-one running them can ever resist scamming the crap outta them. There simply isn't sufficent safeguards to being able to make loans a viable profession, as if you're forced to put up assets of equivalent value you might as well just sell if in the first place!

Post with your main, like a BOSS!

And no, i don't live in highsec.  As if that would make your opinion any less wrong.
