Sorry.

I don't want to sit for hours mining. That's boring.
I don't want to run missions. Shooting at reds crosses sucks.
I don't want to manufacture. It's a PITA. Seriously. You spend all of your time making crap and at the end of the day, traders make the most money off of the **** that YOU built....Plus profit margin sucks anyway.
I don't want to trade. Playing Plus-A-Penny all day isn't my style.


Scamming is all I have. It's fun. My heart skips a beat when I see that wallet flash or that contract pop up.

Take away scamming and I'm gone (and I know plenty others who feel the same). ISK is essential in this game, and most ways to obtain it make you want to lick windows, as it's probably more enjoyable. Scamming is the only profession that doesn't feel like a friggin JOB. I work all day, I don't want drudge work in my hobbies.

it is YOUR game and if you want to play the game that way it is YOUR choice and let us thank CCP that they allow us to play this great game in so many different ways

I do not agree with what you are saying , but i will defend to the death your right to say it...... Voltaire

And actually how much money can you actually make with the contract scamms and what not.. Unless they are very creative and new, they are all mostly known by people.

Scamming is part of EvE Online, just like mining is.

More effort needed.

Now you got that out of your system.

Well, you have every right to try to scam as many people as possible just like I have every right to call any scammer out when I see them working, and......
I almost always do, not only that, when I do I explain what the scam is and how it works.

An educated public is a happy public.

Merry Christmas.

Don't mistake scamming with you STUPID SPAM...

if you are the one who sends thousands of e-mail offers and spams local with chat bot, you should be nerfed to oblivion.

ASSCLOWNs who spam stupid stuff must not live, but rather form biomass material.

I'm just informing CCP of this minority, if they were unaware or possibly thinking of doing away with scamming in order to soften it up for other players. Scamming is a legitimate profession and should be maintained as such.

...excuse me, I see a victim...

Good job, I'm with you. Email me some of your best scams if you are willing. I'm all for it...

So you don't like combat, or trading, or creating, just tricking people. Which is cool I guess. Except this game kind of revolves spending isk. Not that I'm against people scamming, play how you like.. but it does bring in to question .. to what purpose? I understand if you fly ships you cant afford scamming can close that gap. But so far all you've listed is that you like to stay docked and spam local and nothing else.

Say you have 3 trillion isk doing nothing but plying your "deals". Now what? work on a 4th? a 5th? What's the progression if you have no goal?

The scammers I know use it for hugely blingy ships for their incursions. (or replacement including helping others in same fleet).

But they aren't adverse to other functions of eve such as with the OP.
