Hi guys. We have a really good relationship and I know that you know that I wouldn't bother you unless it was important.

Well it is.

I have uncovered a large scale market conspiracy of extreme magnitude that has been hitherto unseen.

Someone is manipulating the market.

The whole thing.

After extensive research I have found the person responsible for these manipulations.

CHANNEL, DONCHIAN

I dont know who this person is. Or what kind of shadow organization he/she works for. That name sounds foreign so its quite possible that its someone from a russian null sec group.

All I know is that their reach and financial power is vast. I randomly selected 100 items on the market for investigation.

Donchian was on all of them. Above, Below and at the current market price. Enveloping the whole path of the market like some kind of machine.

How much do you want to bet ISD will lock for rumor mongering instead of realizing it should be lack of content?

Enjoying the rain today? ;)

I didn't think eve players would be so sneaky, this is really shocking, what can we do!?

I'm a relatively respectable citizen. Multiple felon perhaps, but certainly not dangerous.

The Donchians tried to take over New Eden thousands of years ago. Now, they are trying again.

WHO WILL STOP THEM?

There are like a dozen batshit crazy guys who are the top buy/sell orders in jita. We know they're rich.

in practice one char has limited amount of orders so to totally control whole trade need lot of chars.

In some random system middle of no where some one guy can control whole market because no one is interested about that place but most volume of trade happens in market hubs where is more players.

You got every single one of them and they haven't even realized. Bravo!

There's nothing worse than an EVE player, generally considered to be top of the food chain in the MMO world, that cannot smacktalk with wit and coherency.

Not one of his best works but still amusing enough , specially with the replies from people who can't even figure donchian out Lol .

We are all born ignorant, but one must work hard to remain stupid.
