Oh yeah.

It's like they didn't even bother to read the damn EVE wiki entry on the Goons.

Also, Goons, scamming, in my EVE?

I say shenanigans sir. Outright shenanigans.

Everyone knows Goons are Honorable Internet Spaceship Pilots!

Retract your false statement and apologize to our Goon brethren at once!!!

At once, sir!!!

Cool

Everything in EVE is a trap.

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

Hey man G00NS have to get that isk back somehow with all those losses in Asakai. Why would you even engage in any kind of business with them? They are a sullied lot and the largest engagement of 2013 thus far should prove how far they've fallen from grace in prowess let alone how they handle diplomacy.

You got scammed by Hellen Keller in a spacesuit. Congrats.

The most surprising thing about this story is how someone gets the isk needed to buy/build a nyx, only to get scammed buy goons. Unless you buy the ship with isk made from selling plex, you need to invest some serious time in playing eve, and by the time you have the ship you probably would know how to do a secure transfer.

Easy come easy go... had he worked hard to get the ship, then he probably wouldn't have lost it so easily.

I did tl;dr. but here's something you should know:

Goons are not permitted to sell supers outside of the CFC. Any goons selling a super is a scam, otherwise they'll be shortly kicked from the CFC.

And really, inside of the CFC there are plenty of people who'll buy a super.

Dear lord, the crime against the English language that the OP has managed to get away with so far is by far the worst I have seen... well... at least today. I would say that the loss of a Nyx is a good punishment, or at the very least a good start.

Thats what machine translated russian usually looks like. I think every just assumed that was the case(I sure hope that was the case).

I'm actually grateful to the OP for running it through a translator, but he might have wanted to mark it as such for people who are not used to dealing with machine translation(I've had jobs where I had to support non-english speaking customers via email, so am very familiar with the signs).

Edit: did you marry Kalten? (ignore if you didn't name your character from the reference I think you did)

Goons can sell outside the CFC, technically, just not to reds.

The Elenium is one of my fav series... So much better than the Belgariad, I wish it had been the universe that had been expanded on to ridiculous lengths.

Agreed, a lot more interesting. And a bit more adult, I mean I liked the belgariad but.. not as much.

The shocking thing here isn't the scam, but rather the fact the people still allow the Goons to scam them.

Excelling in all things terrible.

Pretty sure that the first person to ever tell me to never trust a Goon... was a Goon. So it's not like they're hiding behind any kind of facade here, kids. I'll give them that much credit, at least.

Op

Now let me ask this, have you or whomever sits in the aforementioned Nyx paid in full the sum stated in the sell thread and complied with the poster's request in spirit and in letter?
Or failing that relinquished the materials so acquired without proper pay that the rightful original owner need not seek recompse?
