Edited by: Lecherito on 20/05/2009 23:06:11 As many of you might now realize, the EWG extravaganza was brought to a sudden halt after LRN/AP/YGR requested that the thread be locked. For LRN's own peace of mind, I reckon this is a good thing. There is, however, the small matter of the 30+ billion of public money with which he is still currently frolicking to his heart's content! My goals for this thread are as follows:
1.) I would like confirmation that he is indeed a scammer, so that we can all arrive at closure to this less than pleasant eppisode.
2.) I would like to explore the history of LRN, so that we may be able to avoid scams of this nature in the future.
3.) Mayhaps a discussion on mechanisms through which we can hopefully improve the level of security pertaining to the secondary market. Obviously, this clown should never have been given such a quantity of ISK. What can we do, as investors, to ensure that this does not happen again.
Thank you for reading.

Forum war? I am worried about my *investments* made in the *bonds* he issued. I deem that that is more than appropriate for the MD forum, yes? Indeed, a new thread would not be necessary had he not requested the other thread, where we were more than happily discussing the matter, closed. Any other concern, ricdic?

I am an investor as well Lech, for a larger amount than yours; I am not worried (now) since LRN posted that the investment was still on-track, albeit with dividends reduced by 1%. But let's pretend that we know he plans to scam. What will creating walls of text and spamming threads on the forum do to stop this? I'll help you out: nothing. Whatever vendetta you have against him, please keep it in-game with mails and convos.

Has he actually publicly admitted this is a scam? Has anyone any hard proof of it?
I hate to say it, but the more people push LRN into "oh this is a scam" the more that option will become and easy choice for him. I scimmed through the 5 pages quickly and most of what I saw was people jumping to this scam conclusion.
First off; his earlier ventures were successful with dividend payments and buyback were they not?
Even his newest ipo that I have invested in paid dividends last month, pretty bad scam if you've already started giving the money back.
maybe I'm missing a big point here, but I've got people opening convo with me for votes and wanting to buy my shares for half price, so I'm abit confused whois really scamming. Would be nice to here it straight from LRN, cause so far financially, I have no reason to believe he has, or will scam, anything. If he didn't raise the capital he wanted, or lost his love for the game, then let's liquidate and call it a day. If you lose passion for the game, or can't meet goals, then cash out, I don't consider that a scam...
On the other hand I could be completely missing something from a few threads, Kind of hard to fight Kenny blobs and read/type at once, speaking of which, titan JB is up, gotta go!
Just my ipo shares worth... -------------------------------------------- |

Originally by: Azerath Would be nice to here it straight from LRN,
Yeah, that wouldn't be nice, wouldn't it? Unfortunately LRN has been *anything* but transparent these past two days. You reckon the first instinct of an honest businessman accused of scamming would be to deny the accusations, correct? Not only has he failed to do this, he has actually threatened investors with violence.
And honestly, walls of texts? If you can't be bothered to read an informative, well-thought out structure of paragraphs, why are you on the forums in the first place? Do you not find that contradictory in the slightest?
I really don't care that much about my 300m invested. I lose it, whatever, tomorrow morning I work for free. What I do care about is what it represents. Here is a clown running around with more money than most of EvE players will ever see in their lives, money invested by the public in good faith that the venture would yield profits. LRN has conducted himself as the antithesis of a good businessman in every situation possible. Yet for some reason, this is perfectly acceptable as long to investors as long as they see their little 3% return per month.
*That* is what I find unsettling, *that* is what I find to be wrong with the MD community in general, and after he threatened to blow my ships up "one by one," I decided that enough was enough. That is a personal decision, and some of those among you have chosen to disagree. According to the most recent thread, again locked by his own request, however, there exist a decent amount of investors who agree with what I am saying. Oh, sorry for this wall o' text.

Despite loving this drama (as it's keeping me amused).
Given the corp vote 0% issue (often corp votes are delayed, very frustrating for war decs), and that YGR/LRN has only become aware of the actual vote results give him a chance.
He will need to think through what he is doing. Given that LRN is proposing to carry on with reduced dividend would the vote have turned out the same?
Does it matter if you no longer have shares?

I would like you to quit egging him on. Your barrage could be considered harassment and to that end I'm glad he had the thread stopped. Having read posts by LRN for more than a year, I believe if he sets his mind to do something great he well can. Or he can enjoy being a troll as he likes to from time to time. All depends on the day :)
Thus far I've not seen him give any intent of false doing, but I've seen you day in and day out going after him.
Would you please just leave it with registering your perspective and if the time ever comes , then you can say your I told you so's, till then shut it please.

On the other, this sort of thing is par for the course for YouGotRipped and people knew that going in. Hence I'm simultaneously annoyed that he's being let off so easily and yet almost annoyed enough at the *****ing to report this thread.

You mean the trolling that enraged YGR to the point that he got his thread locked is being let off easily?
Also, how much *****ing can go on when people are aware of his background?

To ppl defending YGR, I'd say he has all the fault and I suppose he doesn't mind or even enjoy it. All of this is created by him not answering what he should, so I don't know what reasons could you have to defend him.
To ppl accusing YGR, he has not crossed the last line yet (not enough time from the vote results). You can think it is a scam, but you can't prove it yet, so you should stop saying this is it like it was proved. You can talk all day about his missinformation, his poor management of the situation and him being a clown, but you can't be sure he scammed yet.
I want to know what will happen, but I suppose this is like training a long skill, you only can let the time pass by until it is trained, desires don't change the timeline.

While i agree that Lecherito has put some zeal into this whole thing with LRN/YGR. I cannot see why he should be the one taking the flak...
Lets say any other IPO/Bond owner decided to do what LRN/YGR just did, there would be a massive cry out.
Threatening investors. Overruling majority votes. Asking investors if they want him to scam. Lowering interest without investor consent!
Then we ofcourse have all the other things, that we have come to expect from YGR. Though locking his own bond thread was the thing that made all of this EPIC.

ITT: Potential Scammer brews ****storm amongst old money butthurt armchair Economists. Lulz Ensue.
I respect many of the old money in this thread, but Lecherito is turning this into a thinly vieled 'WAAAAAAH HE SAID BAD THINGS COS I CALLED HIM A DOO DOO HEAD' harrasment thread.
I suggest that we wait and see if YGR is a scammeer, he isn't free of my disdain for his lack of professionalism, but it seems that you guys with your usual emorage I INVESTED IN SOMETHING WITHOUT SECURITIES are just trying to back someone who shows signs of trying to recoup loss/deliver on promises, into a corner.
Face it, the secondary market is dead, ***** at CCP till you get something to assist with it, or writte off your investments as a gamble. ALl this wannabe stockbroker/buyer BAWWING isnt funny anymore. Write it off as a loss. -------------------- This is where my sig is meant to begin... |

Exactly. Anyone annoyed that YGR might be scamming needs their head checked. It was pretty obvious from the onset of every one of his bonds that scam was a very real risk. Knowing that, people have their own choice to make. They weigh up the pros and cons and make an informed decision. Someone shouldn't be telling a scammer off for scamming, they should be telling themselves off for investing and then complaining when one of the riskiest investments folds.
When I chose to invest, I expected it quite likely that the funds were gone. Whilst YGR has a fiery presence on MD when he is in one of his moods, otherwise his dividends etc are solid. Anyone knowing YGR knows he loves stirring up trouble, drama actually fuels him. So every time the OP posts, YGR feels better inside, and more compelled to continue the drama with another off-the-cuff remark.
The OP hasn't yet realised this after his 20th? post explaining how YGR is a scammer when thus far YGR hasn't taken a dime. Even if he is, as above, why would you have invested? Do we need to be told by you 20 more times that you think he is a scammer? |

Mate Ricdic,
You have been around a long time, seen a lot of things happen. I respect that. But seriously, scroll the **** up. #1 on my list is to seek confirmation as to whether or not he is a scammer. He could *easily* have posted two days ago, reassuring us that things are well. He has chosen not to do that. For whatever his reason, he has chosen to maintain this situation.
Yet you blame me for voicing opinions that are easily substantiated and shared by many. That's unreal. After this is sorted, my MD presence will change. I will speak haphazardly and with ****e grammar. I will include the obligatory "go back to wow" slogan in every one of my posts, nay, in my signature. I will respond to each and every post involving more than a sentence or a word I don't understand with "tl;dr". Maybe that will appease the critics, yah? Nah, we both know that isn't true.

Originally by: Lecherito #1 on my list is to seek confirmation as to whether or not he is a scammer.
The point is, he will say and do so when he is ready. Frankly I won't be ready to call scam until he stops paying dividends. YGR is renowned for causing as much drama as possible, usually over nothing. You are falling directly into his trap, aka enabling him.
Quote: He could *easily* have posted two days ago, reassuring us that things are well. He has chosen not to do that. For whatever his reason, he has chosen to maintain this situation.
You really should have expected this when investing. I have 1b invested in YGR and have every understanding of the situation. Whether he chooses to scam or not will be determined by the next move he makes ingame, not by his forum comments (this isn't true for others, but YGR has his own kettle of fish)
Quote: Yet you blame me for voicing opinions that are easily substantiated and shared by many.
No, I am simply stating we have heard your opinions 100 times now. Regardless of how much you post or how much other people post, YGR will do whatever he wants. So enabling him only potentially delays dividends and encourages YGR to make a sport of this.

(Numbering in reference to the OP)
1)Is EWG a scam? I don't know, I don't really care as I don't have any isk in it. Is he going to scam now? Doesn't really matter, he's already got your isk and you're left with the contents of Pandora's box.
2)Here's some history you should have checked BEFORE investing: YGRs 1st MD post YGRs 1st 5 MD posts were ALL in scam threads. Not saying he is a scammer or not. Just that he seems to role-play that particular character a bit, with a particular interest in scams. Including this little gem in the 5th post I mentioned
Originally by: YouGotRipped I don't think scamming is to be condemned.
Anybody saying that or anything similar never gets my isk, no matter how they actually conduct themselves thereafter. Nothing personal YGR, you'll find yourself in some esteemed MD-regulars company in that regard. 
3) Perhaps if the OP had explored "the history of LRN, so that we may be able to avoid scams of this nature in the future" he wouldn't have invested either and I wouldn't be experiencing deja vu from previous threads about how to "improve the level of security pertaining to the secondary market". The OP is bordering on plagirism.
Anyone want to bet YGR's education includes more than one psychology course? -----

Since almost all investors voted on closing and returning isks, your investment should go back to you, not dividends. I didn't voted on closing, but the vote is to be honored and althought i dind't voted on closing, after the results I want it liquidated and repayed (Althought what I want is not going to change anything).

Originally by: Krathos Morpheus Since almost all investors voted on closing and returning isks, your investment should go back to you, not dividends. I didn't voted on closing, but the vote is to be honored [...]
Imagine that I've invested some isk as well in the project and that was never reflected in the number of shares. I'm actually the top investor and project manager which means I had direct access to info you people did not and I also had a personal interest in resuming production.
You own 200 EWG Holdings shares which I will happily buy back right now if that is your wish.
Since you have not reflected your investment in shares, you have no vote there. You can do what you want with your money, but the public investment is tied to the shares and you have not them.
You issued the vote, nobody asked you for it. Why did you offered the liquidation if you were not going to do it? I suspect it was a strategy to allow your expansion and/or improve the trust of your investors thinking nobody will pick liquidation (That or to buy secretly shares at half price, the mistery continues unsolved ;). You must not offer anything you are not going to do.
That said, I was talking about what you should do with all the public money, not just mine. Anyway, I think I'll take your offer. I'll try to catch you in-game to make the transaction.

p.s. LRN I missed your vote, but I'm game for whatever you want to do, except of course run off with my principle :P

There were practical reasons for not reflecting my investment in the number of shares.

What can I say, I have a highly sensitive nature and cannot tolerate doubt and uncertainty. I have stated the purpose of the vote in the first paragraph of my post (my apologies if you missed it):
Quote:
Given the recent failure to raise additional funds and further develop my project I'm left wondering if I'm still enjoying the same level of trust the investors once placed in me by choosing to invest in the EWG Holdings IPO.
Since my investment was never reflected in the number of issued shares, those 3 options were just a means to quantify the said level of trust.

Interested? Of course. Buying in? Only if the corp name is worth paying for a share.

Now, now, Dzil, don't be greedy, you're already bought one share, leave some to the rest of the community, eh?

Assuming Athre fulfills her reservation, I still have 295 shares left. Is there anyone that wants those? I won't be able to transfer them until the 9th of June though. |

That's very nice of you Athre, but we've already passed the event horizon. I will see to it that you get your investment back along with the interest for the current month.

As for my investors, I have a surprise for you, one that I have carefully concealed in plain view: selective scamming.
Based on the above, I'm currently returning the isk to a select few, the rest of you, I hope you can swim.

Heh, apparently I just missed his new thread while posting in this one. Too bad... I was actually hoping to get a good deal on any shares he still might have left since he seemed to be planning on continuing this venture. |
