Melleia is a self-confessed corp thief. Here's the link: http://www.eve-search.com/thread/1252830/page/1
If you're wondering why its free, its because she's looking for an opportunity to rob you. |

Like I said multiple times in that thread, I merely got revenge on an individual who betrayed blue status with me. If I had something to hide, I wouldn't have posted it.
Originally by: Me To be completely honest, I'm not much for corp theft. I only went and did this because it was payback for my moons. I don't think I'm the kind of person that can get into a corp, make friends, and screw them over for some virtual items.
Next please?

So I guess that means anyone who has ever crossed you or one of your alts is the next potential victim. If you want to be trusted, you can't ever steal. You're damaged goods. |

I highly doubt you wouldn't seek revenge if someone betrayed your blue status and took away a 6b ISK per month (at the very least) ISK source (which happened to be my only ISK source at the time). Don't act all high and mighty.
What's done is done, my clients are free to choose who they use as a third party and some people have chosen me, even when aware of the event in question, and used me to secure their lotteries (4B ISK as the largest from a single job).
Like I've said in another thread calling me on this, I have never scammed, and I will NEVER scam.

There is no other explanation for why you would go about this the way that you are.
You are doing it for free. You are paying people to find you people who will let you be third party. You are paying somebody to make you a lottery site that you will then make available for free.
And the return is zero-- unless you wait until you've built enough "reputation" as a third party in lotteries and crap and then suddenly you disappear with someone's Titan one day.
I think I see the real motives here.

Edited by: Killerjock on 20/08/2010 21:41:31 Or maybe, just maybe, he's investing in something that - once achieved - becomes a goldmine, and that can't be readily bought on market. Which is reputation.
I've held now 4 lotteries with Melleia, who helped out greatly by giving me free hints and guiding me through my first steps in a different area of eve. None of that was paid and none of that was required of him. In fact, since my lotteries summed together don't reach 300mills, he could've ignored me or sent me to someone else, without risking anything. In fact I stated clearly that my intent was to run small lotteries, nothing big, so it's obvious I won't be entrusting him with anything of value. Why did he secure my enterprise then?
Yah bragging about a corp theft ain't exactly the best one can do to gather reputation. Fun thing is I read that story before, but I had forgotten the name.
But that was then, and this is now. I'm trusting him now. If he happens to be a scammer and a thief, then so be it, I was wrong. But until he actually runs off with a titan, I think I'm gonna trust Melleia.

Quote: There is no other explanation for why you would go about this the way that you are. Yes there is
You are doing it for free. Hard to charge when you have no reputation, it drives people away to more established third parties You are paying people to find you people who will let you be third party. I can't be online all the time to look for unsecured lotteries. I'm paying them to find me an OPPORTUNITY You are paying somebody to make you a lottery site that you will then make available for free. I don't like Eve-Lotteries charging a flat 50m for the cheapest lotteries, when I have people running lotteries that get maybe 20m in profit. This way, people can track their tickets and the lotto runners still make their profit
And the return is zero-- unless you wait until you've built enough "reputation" as a third party in lotteries and crap and then suddenly you disappear with someone's Titan one day.
The return is my reputation that I will continue building until Eve dies, and the third party fees that I will eventually start charging (in the long term future).
I think I see the real motives here.
Answers are in bold.
I think people mistakenly thinking that I will never charge a third party fee. I will eventually, just not for the foreseeable future. Having a third party fee while still working on your reputation is detrimental, as people will just go to more established third parties instead of giving you a chance.
