I will give you 65 million ISK for FREE as starter money. Second, I will explain to you my secret on how to become 5-7 billion richer within a reasonable time frame.


  1. Make post like that above
  2. Get 20 new players to join (takes 2 months at least, max 10 per month)
  3. Sell 20 PLEX you get from buddy-invite-program to get 20*370 mil = 7.4 billion ISK
  4. Pay 65 million to new players as promised (20*65 mil = 1.3 billion ISK)
  5. Enjoy your 7.4 - 1.3 = 6.1 billion ISK profit

Did I guess right? Lol

Competition doesn't bother me, so I won't come into your thread and trash talk you like you're trying to do to other people's threads as I find such things to be in poor taste... however i would like to point out one thing about your post that caught my attention:

Quote:
EVE is full of scams which is permitted in EVE. [] You can spot these people that offer more than 50% of the PLEX


Quote:
I offer new comers two options. They can choose the ISK, or they can choose the lesser ISK + a method to make billions of ISK


It's cool that you've played the game for a long time, I mean if you feel like you need to talk yourself up then by all means. However, consistency in statement is really the best indicator of whether or not a person is being honest.

Well, I suppose I need to retort to these unfortunate comments I have received in my thread yesterday which is ironically fast especially by the fact they appeared in conjunction with another thread like mine yet it remains untarnished by these some what negative comments.

That other thread didn't try to hide the fact that he is getting some ISK from the deal. He also doesn't try to offer some kind of secret information, just plain ISK. So I felt I had nothing to comment there.

Tank CEO wrote:
Second, in response to "Sellestiya's" post, I would just like to say you are full of ****. No noob, nor current subscriber would take my offer just to see what my 'secret' was. Even if you did do it, it is pretty funny I caused you a $15.00 or a 300 million ISK loss. There could be only one logical reason to why you woudl waste that amount of money just to know my method, and that would be COMPETITION! So anything you say is going to be biased to whatever my offer is, and your only goal is to sabotage basically my sell order to new comers.


You are just so wrong. If you are veteran player, then you should know that 300 mil isn't much for veteran. I have only played 1-2 years but could afford to waste 300 mil just to know your "secret" without needing any alternative motive like competition.

Also you don't seem to value your "secret" much. If it really is a way to get 5-7 bil ISK, then why do you think that nobody would pay 300 mil to know it? It seems that you think your secret is not worth even 300 mil.


Tank CEO wrote:
Just be warned new comers, EVE is full of scams which is permitted in EVE. There is nothing you can do if a current subscriber doesn't send you the ISK he promised after you accepted his invite and subscribed.Then where will you be? Scammed and left with nothing and without a good head start. You can spot these people that offer more than 50% of the PLEX which ranges from 225-350m ISK. Also, newer players that are less than one year old, or even 1-2 year old players are an obvious sign when combined with offering higher than 50% split of the plex.


It is true that there are scams. However offer for over 50% is not automatically scam. and your offer isn't automatically legit just because you offer less than 50%. Just as easily as someone else could refrain from giving promised ISK, you could refrain from giving promised ISK also, or promised advice.

Account age is not proof either. New account could be alt of veteran, and old account could've been bought with ISK.

Tank CEO wrote:
I, on the other hand, have 9 years experience with the game. That is 9 years of constant subscription to EVE and I have yet to cancel once. That 9 years is reputation, and reputation means quiet a bit in EVE, and I plan to keep that reputation in good standing when it comes to honesty.


There is no way for you to prove that. You could've bought that character.

When thinking your comments, I really do not believe you to be trustworthy veteran.

LOL, this is so completely obvious now. Sellestiya was the one who spent 300 million, not you, but I guess it is you. It is your alt.

It is SO apparent that Sellestiya, Raendel, and Malaire are the same people. You are messing up and confusing your alts. I'm not even going to bother replying to your 2 other alts. If you want consistency, check out my feedback thread in my OP.

almost 100% sure that Tank CEO has sold his character and this n00b bought it with money from plex, no need for an 8 year CEO of a nullsec corporation to scam this way, he could **** 7B isk faster than it takes to collect it from new subs.
