Evreybody's suggestions are so bad.

Just fit out a couple vindicators, officer fit out the wazoo, and pew pew, obviously.

"SMARTBOMB IN JITA TRALALALA," you guys are amateurs.

Get yourself plastered all over killboards with cargo holds full of prostitutes and blue pills.

I actually like the PLEX in GSCs idea but that's taken.

Buy 40 carriers. Get them all in Tama and just go on a killing spree. As the carrier dies, self destruct so there is no kill mail. Rinse and repeat 40 times.

Start "give me x amount and I give you twice as much back"-scam in jita but don't scam.

Get classic forum style - custom videos to captains quarters screen

Play with the best - die like the rest

Offer to pay wardec fees for any and all carebear high-sec corps willing to attack other high-sec corps, which you select at random (or not). Offer a prize, too, for whichever corp manages the most kills during the war.

Buy up all of the rifters on market in all the empire regions and recycle them. Sell the minerals. Repeat until you run out of ISK. Recruit a few friends to help you to reduce travel hassle.

So, I hate the direction eve is going and am gonna quit. The question is what I do with my isk. No, I won't give them to you. But in the true eve spirit, I want to go out in style -- by screwing over as many people as possible and ideally by personally pooping in Hamlikar's lunch. Terrorizing innocent bears is all well and good, but I'd like to see something more grand.

Anyone have suggestions? 40 billion isk budget, and all the time in the world. And if I get a nice idea, I'll toss you a bil or two as a thankyou.

P.S. No, I won't give you my stuff.



Buy a bunch of PLEX and put them in secure containers anchored all over New Eden. Give out the PW on the forums and have a humungous scavenger hunt.

I'll be checking for that 1 Billion ISK.....Thanks
Not bad. I even have some ideas of where I would put a few.


I'm sure there are enough people out there that would hold The Mittani down for long enough for you to be able to put them there too ShockedShockedShocked

Go to the starter systems, scour the help channels, search high and low for wide eyed and bona fide newbie. Ask them questions about their experiences in New Eden so far and out if they're making an effort to come to terms with the game and all it's complications without resorting to begging.

Then open your wallet and blow their mind with your generosity Big smile


I did that occassionaly with excess stuff in the help channel with a Q&A sort of game. Asking related EVE question about game mechanics etc. and the first one with the correct answer wins. Until recently that was no problem but ISD seems to have a problem with it now and asked me to stop.... poor newbies, now i just reprocess it.

its a bad idea mkay... overloading newbies with lots of isk tend to them leaving the game early .. one of the reson i left star wars galaxy that being a docter passing buffs for money made me so freaking rich in a short time the game just became a bore to me i could buy anything i wanted without efffort.


Twisted


this is actually a good point... however going off the monocle train i actually have a way to make it better use exotic dancers and call it the Love Train then get someone to follow you through whatever systems you may travel through spamming the lyrics to the song Love Train or possibly better the lyrics to the Bad Touch by Bloodhound Gang onto Local. Give the prize of whatever is left over to whoever takes you out

Oh, Do go on... no seriously ive got nothing better to do then listen to all the petty arguments and feeble trolling attempts... 

The sad thing is i'm not sure if i'm telling the truth.

You want to hit a major EVENews24 or ISD outlet.



Buy between 5-40 monocles, put them in a Wreathe (a Wreathe looks like a train, so call it the Monocle Train) Announce your intentions on the forum and then fly the Monocle Train between major systems and on the highway between Rens, Jita and Amarr. Tank the Wreath as much as you can to get as many people to try to Suicide Ganking you and CONCORD themselves without successfully killing you.


Make sure the Monocles are stacked in separate stacks so they get calclated separately for loot drops. You'll get talked about for decades in EVE as that due who flew the Monocle Train around EVE - like the guy who lost 100B in PLEX n a Rifter outside JITA.


Well, my alt does have a ship called "Monocle smuggler", so I like this idea.

Unless you go for the whole "random generosity" thing,...

load up a ship with expensive godies and head over to Eve-gate, then host a race to the system, giving prizes out for who gets there first, second etc...

Convert the cash into PLEXs, head off into a WH and dissapear off, then leave it scattered around at random POS's...

Play cool.

Hyperion using 10km smartbombs, lowslots filled with warpstabs.
Highsec, lowsec, doesn't matter. it's AWESOME !

That said, something completely different ...


You pay all the big mercenary corporations to go to war against the goons indefinitely.
Or, if not against the goons, just against the biggest alliance that's controlling everything. *cough*
(No, i don't care about the miners who get killed by the goons ... just let everybody get killed !)

Think about it, if you wanna go with a bang, that's the best idea there is,
because you'll be remembered for being the one guy who shook up things even more !

And if you don't like the idiot called Mit... Kitten, the added bonus is that you'll gain even more fame. ^^

If you have a catchphrase, ask the mercs to use it.


Thanks for you kind donation. :)

These are you options

1. Buy Tech 2 BPOs take into space. Jetcan them. destoy Jet can, Fraps and post. savour tears.

2. Massive stock market manipulations in Jita. savour tears

3. Hire Multiple Mercs to take down the biggest Alliance in EVE just for the lols



Enjoy whatever you do and i dont want any Isk as im trying to waste my own


Good luck in the future
I dont normally troll, but when i do i do it on General Discussion.

I really like the new eden wide savanger hunt for plex idea. If I can add some ideas to it and attempt to elaborate.

Step 1)
Buy 100 plex. These are the rewards. Put anywhere from 1 to 20 in a secure can. Store these at least convenient spots in the game. Safe spots in very unsafe low sec systems for example. Add many decoys as well (put an exotic dancer in them for fun).

Step 2)
Bookmark somewhere 150km away from the can with the plex. Make the password the last 5 digits in the bookmark location.

Step 3)
Put these bookmarks in other cans hidden around new eden. Repeat to your desired level of recursion. More steps for bigger rewards.

Step 4)
Put the last set of secure containers with the bookmarks near stations, moons, gates, planets. Use a set of "obvious" passwords like 12345, password, iamgod, etc. But don't specify which you use on each can.

Step 5)
Post the details of the plan on the forums and invite people to go search for the cans

Step 6)
Give the location of the low sec cans (but not the bookmark/password) to pirate corps. Pay the pirates bounties on all of the scavenger hunters which they kill.

Bonus points if you can get additional funding donated to make the rewards worth even more.

As an alternative, don't put plex in the final can. But instead put a billion isk worth of high volume goods. Make them take a hauler out to low sec to retrieve the reward.
