Seriously everyone, isn't it like written on the box of the game "Come play EvE, you can grief, backstab, lie, steal, and cheat your way to the top - CCP approves."

With all the Mittani / Goon misplaced lolhate going on right now, its just as likely this was a faked logs meant to detract from Mittani trying to make some cash. Or, he ripped em off and is lying to cover up. Either way, its totally working the way EvE is supposed to.

Anyone surprised that a player, CSM or otherwise, would do this, deserves to lose their isk. There are plenty of reliable supercap escrow personnel, like Chribba, who have spotless records. Trading supers with the leader of Goonswarm is unbelievably naive. He may be legitimate, may not be, but thats the risk you take.

EvE has consequences, this stuff is one of them. You may hate the Mittani and the goons all you want, but they are just playing a game, the way it is supposed to be played.

Morality is outdated in the distant, sci-fi future - havent we all figured that out by now? Thats the fun of being immortal - you can do whatever you want to get ahead, even things that would be considered despicable by earthly human standards.

If you want to be a space do-gooder, theres a place for that. Chribba makes bank because of his stellar reputation. Others make bank because they have a complete machiavellian drive for power and a lack of empathy for those who lose in the cuthroat capitalist utopia CCP has created. Either way, its a role playing game. Emphasis on game.

Let the 20 bil be a lesson learned for all parties involved. And be glad you made a mistake in a game, and not with your real money.

To the OP: Researching whom you're dealing with will save you next time.

To The Mittani: +1 you never ever fail to entertain. This was almost as good as Peracleeve. (Sell someone a jumpbridge and I'm becoming a goon.)

Some days you're the bug, and some days your the windscreen.                   And some days, you're just a man with a gun.

The good admiral hasn't posted for a while. Did he finally cry himself to sleep?

It just occurred to me that these people just completely ignore the definition of ''third party''

If your trusted third party is from the same alliance as the guy you're selling to... it's not a third party. There are only two parties involved and the ''third party'' has all the interest in the world to help his bud scam you.

I just realized we have absolute evidence that the logs are faked.

If they were real, they would have been deleted the chat logs at the beginning of the thread, as posting real logs violates forum rules Lol

Sadly it appears that way. Oh Admiral our friend please come back and clear the noble Mittanis good name... how ever will those brave Goons survive with such damning accusations in the air?!

I take it that the Admiral has figured out by now that he was asking the wrong question. It's not normal to get scammed by a Goon because it's not normal to trust one that much.

This is unacceptable. The Mittani of Goonswarm Federation has his good name smeared by Admiral Crybaby all in the name of what? The Mittani merely offered a valuable service, a service of removing isk and dangerous weapons from a pubbie that could have been used to hurt himself and other innocent players of this fine game.

Thank you Mittani, that's 1 less pubbie to worry about in this game.

I wish I saw this sooner.


I can only think of two ways this situation could of possibly happened.


Either the grand admiral here does everything based on assumptions, and we all know what that means, or, and this is probably the main thing, he thinks eve is a single player game and we're all here to help him be the best at eve campaign: Incarna. We should ask what his high score on the Tyrannis campaign was.


I think I should include this edit

Eve is a SANDBOX. That means Chaos.


also, just noticed the sub-funny. (to me anyway)

Good, but ultimately wrong.

I bought ships from Morsus Mihi with 3rd party, found that guy I bought from quite a nice and fun guy...they are red to us but that didn't stop us have a fun chat and do business.

Buying and selling supers between reds is dishonorable and why you would admit to this loss of your dignity in a public forum is beyond me. But at least we all know not to trust this Admiral Thrawn character. HE DEALS WITH REDS! Being red is an in-game mechanic designed by CCP that he is blatantly ignoring. Should we petition this guy for going against CCP's designed use of the game and its standings system?
