Bah, all traders are greedy to some extent. Its not like you become a trader out of some moral duty to provide a liquid market to those too lazy to either setup buy and sell orders themselves or travel a few jumps.

There's a difference between being greedy and being greedy to a fault, or in a self-destructive way. People who fall for this scam are among the latter. It isn't the Margin Trading skill, or anything outside themselves, which makes them buy stuff that they should very well know (and may, indeed, actually know) is a bad deal. It is their greed and their laziness that make it happen. There is a major difference between the service I provide and the greed that a Margin Trading scam victim exhibits.

The one thing we know for certain is that you have a wall of text for every occasion. I don't think its worth it to put excessive load on the server to address one scam that is so simple to avoid or piggyback. However, the vigor with which you fight any and all suggestions to address it certainly makes me very suspicious of your intentions.

Yes, I am a professional Margin Trade scammer. I make an average of 1000 ISK per hour, thank you very much.

60 million isk for some serious "OMG Don't nerf margin trading" tears.

Well worth the 30 minutes of incursions or 4 hours of market orders (using margin trading V btw lol) it takes to earn it back. Not to mention the knowledge that I can sell @ 24% of the buy which I never realized before.

It's not tears when you declare with confidence that they won't nerf it, because they aren't going to.

Stealth tears from the guy digging the thread back up so he'll maybe get another shot at convincing himself that he shouldn't be sweeping the floors at McDonald's just because he fell (embarrassingly) for this chintzy scam.
