I've heard that if you repeatedly rub your Eve wallet it gets bigger. (I've never ever done this, so I'm not sure if it works).


Not sure about that.
I only know about the ester egg where you get 1B ISK after 10k ship spins... is this feature still active or was it only limited to the Crucible expansion?



It's still in game. It does not work in citadels or outposts - only NPC stations. After crucible it was limited to one time per CHARACTER (so I think rerolling characters still works, but I haven't personally verified)

Ahhh - this thread is finally going places! Big smile

If you rub it too vigorusly it explodes and shrinks.

Personally I am shocked, appaled, outraged, disgusted and offended by this. In this day and age stupidity of this level should not be tolerated and I demand an inquiry into how this individual ever acquired 320bil before one of us got to him. Twisted

It's Eve. 99% of the time the reason is either:
1. I was bored, so lol, or
2. Because I could, so lol.

Eve is like an addiction; you can't quit it until it quits you. Also, iderno

There was no impersonation. Where did you get that idea?


From the first page I infer there used to be a typo in the OP which made it at first look like a case of impersonation by misspelling (the one sensible bit of the impersonation clause in the TOS...)

Instead of flaming a third party from which Darkness has done this
For quite sometime I would atleast give him a couple of days to sort the issue out.

However people who know Darkness out of game should contact him regarding this thread so he can
Atleast post his side of the story.


In the future though i would use Chribba. Legend that he is you always know your funds are secure. Or me ofcourse Blink

Just to point out OP that darkness has 2 s not 3 like in your chat log... so either your trying to make the real darkness look
Bad or your just an idiot.

File a petition to ccp regarding this and the char you sent your isk to will be banned

Confirmed.

I initially spelled it, "Darkness" with only two S's.

Was still on my first cup of coffee. Oops

Firstly shocked that Darknesss would do that over years of earning rep but remember he used to be leader of TRI mk1.
Surprised he didnt take the vanquisher as well though.

he was both the seller and middle man, from what we can tell there was no ship to be sold or I am sure he would have.

WHAT?!?!


A mere 320 billion?

Meh. Nowadays that's chicken feed.

Welcome to EVE, yadda yadda, etc.

Also, to OP....post with main or GTFO.

Also also.........


HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA he got scammed.....Pirate

Shoulda used Chribba.



Everything in EVE is a trap.

And if it isn't, it's your job to make it a trap...:)

This doesn't seem probable.

I think this is something you would have to see close up to believe - how far away were you when witnessed it?

320 billion is roughly 275-280 PLEX at current Jita prices - let's just call it 275 for grins.

At the individual plex price, that's $4,930 US, give or take.

Or enough PLEX to sub a single account for 23 years.

Funnily enough, it would have been worth far more in terms of dollars a few years ago when PLEX were cheaper.

Another way of looking at that is that it's roughly 4 troy ounces of Gold or about 9 kilos of pure Silver.

But I don't think you're ready for the True Secrets of EVE yet.

They are.....disturbing.....

Scamming and reputation is a funny thing. Bad Bobby pulled off a successful Titans 4 U scam, which was a lot of ISK for that time, and now he's one of the elderly/respected gents on market forum and invests in legit deals (such as my own 120b bond XD, but collateral for that is held by Chribba so it's as safe as it can get in EVE).

If you do it well enough and on big enough scale, it could actually help your 'reputation' heh.

No more toobo rage about gambling :p I still don't like what CCP has done but it is what it is and it will not be reversed, and although I still think and will always maintain it was a d1ck move from them to take blanket actions on all the bankers (some of whom I KNEW only banked for like a few weeks, but got their wallets zeroed together with their other accounts who were never involved with IWI, well, I can go on and on...), but no point keep raging on the forum about the same topic again if it's not going to change anything. On the other hand, it was a bit ****** response I got from some people with them thinking I was raging over my own loss, ffs, it was about the bankers and cool people I knew through IWI and the community (of low life gamblers who were actually fun and decent people lol), but some people could only see it as my personal vendetta about my own ISK loss, whatever.

Having said that - I'm not happy with the new Engineering Complexes, like Azbel, being able to fit a Market Module. I was about to rage, but then again, CCP does what it does for commercial reasons, so who am I to say they are wrong if game design decisions they make bring more customers and keep their employees fed.

BUT - I've just posted on this very forum asking about cost estimation for removal of Azbel in HS. I'm waiting to see what the new Azbels in HS will be like, if they're nice/cool/whatever, or if they are abominations that unnecessarily compete with Fortizar markets. I'm undecided at this point. I may sponsor them, I may buy/sell from them, or I may hate them. We'll see. If I really don't like them, this time I will do Toobo rage in game instead of on forums, by sponsoring removal ops for HS Azbels with market modules. Smile

let's see.

With all the active citadels though, no ones gonna activate the market, but at the same time i could see why they did that, after all, youd want to sell the stuff you just manufactured.
