notice you dont see a titan , this happened a few hours ago

2,375$ worth of isk ( Rounded very far down , more like 3k )

If the average person spent 4 hours a day doing either missions or ratting ( Ratting is farming mobs for coin basically )

it would take 3.125 years to earn the money to buy a titan

imagine what he feels tonight

what

It's Eve Online and nobody gives a fuck for you.

Imagine what we feel tonight

Could you break it down a little more for those of us that never played but are interested for some reason?

chuck looked at that screenshot for a good 3minutes and is still confused

someone bought something in some online game for like 3k thats all i see

what am i missing

I assumed they got screwed out of 3k but maybe I'm off.

A corp (guild) called Goonswarm scammed someone out of 75billion dollars. (isk) The item they were buying was something you would normally not see sold openly like that, which proves they were fucking stupid. Eve Online condones if not encourages scamming like this to happen, so it weeds out dumb people.

Basically, think of it EQ PvP terms. I told someone if they paid me X amount of plat I would let them have X spawn from this camp whenever they wanted. After they paid me, I killed them, stole the money and laughed at them.

That's pretty much what happened here. Someone stupid got scammed. Not PvP, but dumb people getting weeded out.

i see now

thanks pal

what cfullard is pretty true someone dumb got scammed for alot of money , 3 thousand real dollars worth of in game currency for a digital spaceship , made of pixels : )

the dude who did it got a "Guild" Promotion
