Originally by: EBANK Ricdic This thread is so bizarre.
How does gloating about a person buying overpriced goods entice them to buy more overpriced goods? Sure, this thread has somehow helped your plight MP but I can't understand how you could predict that the person would buy more after being told you were ripping him off...
It's like me buying a car from a car dealer. The car dealer then laughs at me telling everyone how he sold me a car for like 10x overprice. I hear about this, and go back to the dealership and buy another car for 10x overprice. The dealer then comes back and says he meant for this to happen the whole time.
It's all so damned confusing. The edit on the first post replacing it with a hyperlink almost seems to indicate hiding the first post in some way to make it seem like this was your end goal the whole time.
Maybe I have missed the plot somewhere.
You did. The thread was never about Taiyo, really; it was just to convince a third party that overpricing skillbooks in 0.0 stations was A-OK.
To use your car dealer analogy: I have some old 2006 models on the lot that I've had trouble selling. A new car dealer in town is trying to pick up stock, and sees my 2006's. He wants to buy them, and I'm willing to cut him a deal (1.5x overprice instead of 10x), but he worries about what sorts of margins he can get for them while still retaining customer loyalty. I point to the dealer down the street selling 2006's at 20x markup, but he's not convinced; he says it's just because the dealer down the street has a well-recognized brand name. So I become incensed at the prices of the dealer down the street, and the community assures me that, no, his prices are just fine. I point this out to my newfound buddy who's starting up his own dealership and he agrees to buy my 2006's off of me. The fact that Taiyo then came in and bought me out was just an orthogonal source of lulz, and has nothing to do with this "main" story.
Make more sense now?

You seem to value too much what others think of you. Sad. Don't worry, in due time watching more of those Pinky and the Brain episodes will surely cheer you up.

I wouldn't be playing the IPO side of the game if I didn't care about what people thought of me. As many, many others have said, IPO's are terrible ways for the people running them to make money; they require a great deal of reporting, effort, and stress in return for an amount of money that most of us who run IPO's could raise ourselves in, at most, a few months, and an amount of profit for ourselves that is dwarfed by a good day spent in Jita. Basically, we do this because we enjoy role-playing CEO's. I know Ricdic gets a hell of a kick out of being the perennial cheerleader for EBANK, for example.
If I didn't care what peopleùespecially my shareholders!ùthought of me, I'd be a terrible, terrible candidate for an IPO CEO. I'd hope you'd agree; otherwise, you're a terrible, terrible candidate for an IPO investor.

You might be able to swing a whole community's opinion about your original whine but deep inside you know you failed miserably. And that's something you'll remember for some time to come.
Happy thoughts.

All evidence to the contrary in how you run your IPO's. I doubt there is a single person who thinks TINY has been well run or handled. Judging from this thread, even people who I would have expected to stand up for you are bashing you over your running of your IPO's. So if you value what others think of you so much perhaps you should work a bit harder on making them think good things.

Heh I see you have new target after ISSO closed the shop. I would ask you to sell me your TINY. shares at RESX price, but I think you don't even have any.

If you had read any of the past topics you'd know very well I have none as I've stated I have none and furthermore I never did. I didn't own shares in PSI either. MP can run things however he wants... but to say he cares what people think about him when he has been running his IPO's like he has is laughable.

MP
Well having invested 500 million in TINY and since you care i will say i think you so far have been doing a terrible job. Not just because of inexistent return of investment but also your communication,reports,respect,etc for your shareholders.
I don¦t agree that you care much about your shareholders thoughts on you. I think you care more about what you think of yourself. Thinking this just shows that i am a terrible, terrible candidate for an IPO investor which seems to be true based on that 500 million investment.
I am Trotski II alt so you can confirm i have the shares.

I concede my likely error. In my defense, DDC tards sound alike even on ts hence I confused PP-DDC-tard with MP-DDC-tard.

You really should just stop posting, you just make yourself look like a bigger tard than you probably are.

I think you took a wrong turn somewhere on the forum index. This isnt CAOD. CAOD, where you seem to belong, is over there ->

MP, next time you make an IPO, say that it's a subvention for keeping up your funny posts at this forum.
I predict you'll get billions and billions of isks.
