Some of you know me, some of you don't.
Those that do recognize me mostly consider me a generally bad person and someone with a lack of ethics or moral values.
Those that know me realize I just take a different play style than most, and am actually pretty upstanding in real life.
I've spent my EVE career stealing money from strangers and false friendships. Even stealing from the rich fellows in the market forums with a fake bond.
In my time playing EVE I have only ever ran missions to get standings to enable jump clones. 95% of the missions I paid others to do for me.
I've never mined veldspar or any asteriods for any purpose.
I have ratted in 0.0 during the start of my career to get some basic funding before I really got into what I really like to do.
That's right. I don't touch any of the normal game mechanics. I don't do production, nothing. Nada.
I began playing EVE because it was made clear to me that it is a game where crime is allowed. Tricking and stealing from other players is sanctioned within the rules.
This is something that is hard to come by in MMO games. Stole loot in an RPG? A GM takes it from you and gives you a warning on your account. A warning that if your actions are repeated, you're no longer allowed to play the game.
So I began playing. I began playing with the intent of slowly gaining wealth by doing nothing. Nothing but pressing keys like I am now. Talking to you, your friends, anyone.
Since I began playing slightly over a year ago, I have brought my wealth up to over 300 billion ISK, doing nothing but talking.
I of course have PVPed quite a bit and put a lot of my ISK to use as gifts for myself and close friends, but other than that it has mostly just been collecting and not been doing much.
All of my ISK has been "legitimately" earned in the game and through the forums. No game time cards, no illegal activities--everything within the boundaries of the EULA. All from a fake persona.
EVE is an incredibly deep game. The social, political, and economical aspects to it are absolutely fantastic and completely unlike anything else.
Unfortunately for me, I have reached a point where the drive to login and play has simply been lost. I always played for the ISK, the wealth. I feel like I have hit a point where it just doesn't make sense anymore.
So why not just pay my account with game time cards and come back in the future if I feel like it again?
I've done it before. I've taken breaks. I know the feeling of burn out.
But this is genuinely different. I think that EVE is a game where you create your own goals and determine your own path. I believe that I have reached the end of my path.
It has been a blast, but EVE is not the kind of game that you can play forever. You eventually just run out of things that you find enjoyable and it's time to move on.
I believe there are many other people out there doing similar things as myself, and there will always be vast potential for ISK to be earned through the manipulation of others.
Social engineering and social experiments fit perfectly into EVE and it has been a thrilling experience.
The rush that many of you felt as you entered into your very first PVP fight can be found time and time again as you convince others to give you all their hard earnings.
My account still has a bit of time on it, but I will not be playing anymore.
And, of course, since I am a megalomaniac:
The part of my post that everyone will actually care for! (I hope at least one or two people enjoyed my little life story there.)
The link in my signature will very soon become a website.
This website will be used as a platform to raffle off all of my ISK.
Once I liquidate the rest of my assets it is looking to be nearly 330 billion ISK to be given away.
When will it be done?
I'm not sure.
I want to make it really fun. In a way that there's lots of opportunity for anyone who is interested in winning ISK.
I will be sure to post when it is finished.
Kind regards, Riethe

Unfortunately the original post is at the character limit. I simply don't know what portion of it I should sacrifice to fit this in:
The raffle, which should really be called, "The GIVEAWAY, (no purchase necessary)" will be absolutely FREE OF CHARGE. Anyone can play, no purchasing anything.
I genuinely have reached the end of the line here, this is my final EVE project.
That's all there is to it.

No ISK will be given to anyone for any reason prior to the launch of the site. Ignore those goof balls.
Originally by: Veldya If you were going out you would do what any other scammer would do, you would ebay your account for whatever it was worth.
I pride myself on doing everything I have without ever doing anything illegal or breaking the EULA.
All of my ISK is legit (unless anyone I received it from bought it, or something along those lines) so there should be no concern about mass banning or anything like that.
None of my accounts have ever had any warnings or negative balances or any problems.
Also once again, for the third time in the thread... The raffle is actually a GIVEAWAY and will cost you no ISK or USD or any form of currency at all.
As far as writing up my stories, that was actually going to be the original point of eve-scam.com
Unfortunately with my recent changes of interests (or lack of interest), I'm just going to use the site for this giveaway.

"Market AltLOLOLOLO" Can suggest as many conspiracies as they would like.
The difference between myself and a ridiculously named alt:
From EVE-Scam.com you can retrieve all of my information with little to no effort.
The site will be giving away anywhere from 1 million to 1 billion ISK at a time through various creative means.
I really haven't worked out all the kinks yet but I think it will be a lot of fun.
So allow the coward to hide behind his fake alt. I have all my information out in the open. Yes, I am an admitted scammer, but this is legitimately the end of the line for me.
Riethe is my main character, always has been, and always will be. It won't be sold, there is no main-main character than I am running off to. This is it.
Once again, I pride myself on having followed the rules of the game and earning all my wealth from one character.
I only ever use alts to store money, to create holding corporations, and to do a couple investments for some more heavily involved projects.
Riethe is who I was in EVE and there is no one else.
Regardless of that, allow the guy to continue to spew his drivel over nothing--when the site launches, the proof will be there.
