Who knows it, who's playing? I love this game!

I played for a couple of months a bit more than a year or so, but basically sent most of my time scamming money and not doing much else and then I just kind of stopped logging in.

I still love to hear about all the corp drama and cool heists people pull off, but probably won't reactivate my account until I've got way too much money or PLEX prices drop enough that I can afford my subscription with just scamming again.

EDIT: I know WereVolvo plays, convos with him on gtalk are like my #1 source for shit happening in EVE.

[WereVolvo]

I have been known to play EVE, yes.

[WilllemNL]

You still active WereVolvo?

I've been playing for 2 months now, so yeah, big gap between us I suppose. 

And Caranfin, what exactly do you mean by scamming? You were scamming ISK's from other playes to buy your PLEX? (love the concept btw, buying gametime with in-game money)

Yep, all sorts of cons. I was planning to try a corp takeover about when I quit, but lost interest for some reason. EVE is pretty great for the amount of ways you can fuck other players over legally.

I'm still active, yeah. Been playing on and off since 2007. Mainly lowsec pvp/piracy etc.

Haha, fantastic.

And how were you planning on taking over a corp? 

@WereVolvo: What's your character name? Might pay you a visit.

[WereVolvo]

I got a bunch of characters, including WereVolvo. Main character is Vaeline, though. If you decide to pop by, I have to warn you that my corpmates (including myself) can be a tad homicidal 

[WilllemNL]

And the fact you've been playing a tad longer probably also means you're flying a better ship.

Thanks for the hip. 

My character is Willem Dante Van-Vugt.

[Caranfin]

And how were you planning on taking over a corp? 

By finding a really dumb corp.

But seriously, finding a good mark is the hardest part of any scam. After that for a corp theft it's apparently all about getting their trust (out of game knowledge should come in handy: make them a free forum or voice comms or something) and roles and waiting for a nice time to move so you can empty their wallets and hangars before they catch onto what's happening.

[WilllemNL]

Hahaha. That actually sounds great.

I think it's funny how some corps build websites and demand everyone's on teamspeak and their forum... blurgh. 

[RobM105]

I play EVE too. My IGN is Sinner Greed. That's an alt, but it's my most used because it's my tycoon character ^_^

[WilllemNL]

Awesome dude. I've added you as a contact, might run into you one day.

You're a tycoon huw, running a good corp or building ships?

[RobM105]

On that character, it's usually sitting in stations and jump cloning around, lol. It's also my mission alt. On a good day, I can pull in about a billion in trades and 800m in missions. <3 Machariel.

[WilllemNL]

Damn...

Any tips for me?
