Higher a merc group to take him out every time he leaves station. Try to figure out what he is buying and selling and squash him. even if you lose isk its worth it to get rid of and have fun with him.

Buy a ton of that item in a different region and bring it in and flood the market, then put in a higher regional buy order than his and close the gap, sure you make less profits but hes not selling or buying any of that product anymore. OR you could buy all the stock that is not his, list it at a loss till he moves out.

Just have fun with him, no use in letting worthless rage go unpunished.

You should shame him as well by posting the messages and contact in the forums, other people will have fun with him for free just because whinny pithy people deserve to be shamed and humiliated.

Just have fun and keep us updated on how he responds.

So tell me, if you've been around since 2005 and have traded "over 500bn", why are you apparently not knowledgeable enough to know what to do to destroy someone in a situation like this?


That was my first thought...

Second thought was what database he has that has been tracking his orders since 2005...

The "observation on the database" was a mis-observation made by somebody clearly unaware that the EVE API can be downloaded by a cron job and converted into SQL with Perl scripts. I have just short of 250,000 trades stored, updated every two hours, and I've written a fair few Java and spreadsheet front-ends for analysis.

The "mis-observation" was a question, not an observation. Learn to read next time buddy.

Someone in Motsu thougth he could buy out my orders to do a nice speculation. He forgot Jita was only 6 jumps out. After a while I got a mail asking to stop dumping stuff. I told him he had not even consumed 25% of my stock ;) and if he would like me to contract the rest to him at the same price... he ended up contracting me all stuff back, which give me a nice profit. ;)

Sometimes I'll send an email and threaten someone just to cheese them off so they waste time trying to "teach me a lesson" so while I am going out to parties and having sex with supermodels, they are sitting in their moms basement playing Eve. Talk about 0wned.

Just keep doing whatever you are doing. It is obviously working.

Sacrificing your own profit to try to 'harm' another player really won't work against someone who knows what they are doing. (Although the fact he bothered to complain to you in the first place shows this may not be the case)

Getting into and out of markets is trivially easy. Our goods don't spoil, so barring long term price adjustments, people can just wait out whatever short term price manipulations you introduce, so even if you catch him with a load of stock on his hands it's hard to really harm someone who just sits in a station and trades all day (esp if they contract out the actual hauling).

I see people trying to tank the profit margin all the time. I simply wait & trade other modules until they think I am gone , and restore their sell/buy orders to normal levels, then jump back in.

If you really want to hurt someone you should get them to invest in your IPO then scam them.
