Market Discussions

Hello,
I've been gone a long time. Years in fact.

Some of you remember shortly after the IPO for www.rothbards.com casino and www.shiplotto.com my father suddenly died and i left Eve in a hurry. Before departing I attempted to buy back all the outstanding "Rothbard's Casino" shares at full face value. There were a total of 9,000 shares and today I have 7,355 of them. At the time some shareholders decided to keep their shares despite the buyback offer.

I traveled for a couple years after my father died. I've tried returning to Eve a couple times but it didn't stick. About a month ago I plexed up and I feel i'm finally back to play Eve. Each time I log in it notifies me that I have hundreds of unread eve mails that accumulated in my absence. I've avoided reading them for weeks. Since I've been back many people have asked if they could make deposits at the casino, but the deposit API has been broken for years and I told them no.

I finally looked at the two sites and got the API working for Rothbard's and i'm in the process of getting ship lotto working again. Many people have isk on the sites and I'm sure they would like to either play and/or withdraw their funds.

I started going through years worth of eve mails and i've replied to nearly all of them now. Many people made deposits that didn't go through after I left and I refunded them accordingly. Today alone I refunded more than 2b isk in failed deposits. I suspect many of these people no longer play, but it's still their money so i sent it back.

I noticed one person in particular sent me an eve mail every few months while I was away. He wasn't asking for a loan, or to buy the casino, or for a refund. In each one he simply asked how I was doing and wished me well. It's nice to see people care.

Welcome back mate and yes i still hold some of those shares in the casino...my first investment in eve

Thanks guys. It's good to be back. I'm happy to see you are still here Candy! I've got both sites back up and running again, and made a new casino post in events and gatherings forum. I've been hanging out in the scc-lounge as per usual!
