EVE General Discussion

I would agree. If you pull an intervention they includes all temptations like the PC.

Yes EVE is brutal bloodsport. Trusting anyone you don't know for real is nuts.

If OP is for real then the forums should already convince you that we can't confirm your story.

Sorry c'est EVE

Im all for the scam in and of its. But when they found out about the real life situation the in game stuff imo stops. Everywhere in Eve you hear the words " No worries, real life comes first". So in a lot of ways if this is true, which I must say Im still skeptical about which is for me normal especially given the Eve nature, they went to far when the real life circumstances came to light. Their humanity shouldve prevailed but I guess it didnt.

There is such a thing as having the game stop for real life issues.




And as a side note to AKJon....Dude WTF?!?! Are you 12? Be in serious pain for the majority of your day on heavy medication, not being able to sleep or do much because your in constant pain. Now remember the medication your on is as addictive in some cases as heroin or any other street drug but is the only thing to ease the pain, then remember that people react to it differently. But your doctor has made the judgement call that itll let you at least live in a little bit less pain.

I have a buddy whos got some serious issues healthwise. And its horrible to see the **** hes going through. You really need to grow up and grab a brain about real life. This isnt about a junkie that cant control themselves and jonesing for a fix this is a case of pain, way to much REAL pain. Ive played sports all my life, from baseball to boxing and MMA, Ive had to play rugby games on two partially torn achilles tendons because my team needed me. Think of the worst pain youve ever felt and now imagine its PERMANENT.

i try to keep an emotional distance from EVE so if people become asshats i can just brush it off.

My cat has no teeth. it hurts me to see her sitting there with her tounge sticking out her mouth because she has no teeth to hold it back...really sad I tell you.

Seriously, this is not about valueing pixels... if you knew anything about human's psychology, you would understand this is about friendships and getting betrayed by those you feel you can trust and value.

Let's stop this "welcome to eve"-bullshit and think a moment about, that some people reach after a specific moment a point, where they would consider someone else, no matter if rl or ingame, as one of their closest friends.

How about everyone stops here bashing on this one guy the OP talks about, which I bet he didn't choice to be in this difficult situation and start critizing what the members of his corp did, when they took advantage of someone's serious rl issues. Don't forget, this are real people playing here with feelings. Just because scamming is a part of eve does it mean, there should be absolutely no borders at all? Seriously, think again!

Does some billions in eve count more than the people behind the screen?

Stop projecting bro. Not EVERYONE is like you.
But that's the beauty of being on the internet, huh? You are free to type down whatever it is you believe in.



Even if it's wrong.

Yes we know you've seen American Psycho and Fight Club

Thats the reason why I always keep my valuables in high sec stations or safespot cans noone else but me has access to. Joining a corporation is first and foremost to make profit and enjoy a good time together. Anyone entrusting corp mates, even long term "friends" from the internet, with vital assets that might possible decide your ingame future just makes a terrible mistake.

This thread is not only a reminder of sad things happening and mean behaviour towards a person who has already hit rockbottom its also and foremost a reminder to everyone to play this game the smart way and always remember:

NEVER RISK WHAT YOU CANT AFFORD TO LOSE !

EDIT: Btw this might actually be the perfect scam, if the author would ask for some kind financial support for the mistreated and now bankrupt, drug-addicted but still good spirited loving father of a little child. Im sure for such a story, be it true or untrue, there might come in a few billions.

I consider myself a pretty mellow and sociable person. I'll help an old lady cross the street, I'll drop a dime into the collection can, and I'll return a lost wallet.

In EVE, I will claw out your still-beating heart, and slowly slice it with a potato peeler in front of your very eyes. I'll make you suffer and squirm, if it suits my own goals. I expect you to do the same. You know why? Because this is a video game about conflict, war, theft, betrayal, and cheating. I enjoy every second of seeing someone suffer in EVE, because I know that in this game, a player can only be a victim of his own stupidity, and not a victim of circumstance.


Oh, I see. You're one of those internet tough guys. Work out and shoot guns and take MMA classes, bro? Washboard abs and a trophy girlfriend, right? And ain't no one going to **** with your **** 'cause you got it on lockdown?

You remind me of some of the war targets I've had, who opened chats and threatened to hunt me down and kill me in real life. All over some space pixels. That, or a terrible rap song. Take your pick.


Yeah, okay. I guess you have a degree in psychology too. Must be a tight fit on the mantle, though, what with all the sharpshooting awards you have stacked on it.

What a bunch of tripe. It's pure hypocrisy that someone with your professed real-life attitude toward violence and self-defense would take up such a bleeding-heart attitude towards a game in which shooting other players is the main attraction.



To all the others: you're falling for a troll, though a well-planned one at that. By all means don't stop; I find it hilarious.
