Ladies and gentlemen, it has been several months, and I feel it is finally time to release this to the general populace.
It is written in reverse order (the first entry is at the bottom of the page)
And with this, I give you:

...But page of text is fun to read.
I've read most of it so far and it's very good... good writing (a few typos but meh) and fascinating story of bigtime scammer becoming hero of the people and alliance leader... yet more proof that Eve is unlike any other game 
So overall, 4.5/5 and a healthy dose of kudos.
The new 7.5km web = web + scram = "Wamble".

A good read, though I must admit I was looking forward to the moment of truth and am a bit disappointed you never got there.

what a shame it ended with a whimper rather then a bang, but since the blog itself posed the question, what does that guy have left to do it eve?

Well Stra tegist/VBSarge the only thing left for you to do is take down B.O.B 2.0 "a.k.a" IT Alliance, since thatĘs where one of your toons are now maybe thatĘs your plan. Its funny how nowhere in your sob story do you mention your afk management style. Maybe thatĘs why you couldn't motivate people. All though I have to agree most of the pilots you were dealing with were selfish weekend warriors that were interested in leeching more than building something great. Oh well lots of lul's look me up sometime mate we should go hunt down your arch nemesis LR. Fly safe m8. |

You're taking a scrawny seventeen year old white kid that is maxing his allowance on three EVE accounts for a couple of virtual space ships. Stop pretending you're scamming the CEO of a multi-national business out of millions of dollars.
People like you that give scammers a bad name.

Would it have mattered if he was a black or yellow kid? Or are you just a racist?

Overlooking the racial remarks, what does the17 age got to do with it?
When I was 17, I lived by myself and was my own master, and was 90% self relient finacially.

The chap behind this is not a 17 year old basement dweller, which has to be the most common and lowest form of internet backchat in the book.
Personally, I thought it was a very entertaining read. Brings back some good memories of that which has taken place. The IPO parody was quite frankly some of the funniest content I have ever witnessed in Eve, topped off by a fellow corpmate creating the parody picture with his eloquent MS Paint skills.
Whilst meta-gaming is such a frowned upon act; people really do underestimate just how much time and effort it takes to run a scam. In fact, keeping up a successful guise when surrounded by inexperienced players when you are attempting to blend in requires you to bite your tongue almost too often.
A thoroughly enjoyable recollection of events good sir. Only 4 out of 5 due to spelling omissions, very sad I have taught you nothing

A fun read.
"In the end, it came down to the fact that we had a LOT of selfish pilots in our alliance who had no desire to see the alliance grow, just their personal wallets."
I thought this was a bit unfair, considering your goal of fleecing them within six months.
Also, embezzling is pretty common.

True, but his plan was a total secret and outwardly he wanted to improve the alliance, while the members made it readily apparant that they had no interest in helping the alliance at all.
Definately worth reading, hope to see more.

Sometimes I wonder what someone could achieve with all this wasted energy, all this potential that people put into typing stuff in forums and blogs.

I'm just saying, raise your hand if you never had an embezzeling CEO or director.

You sir and people like you keep eve fresh and interesting. Nowhere else in the MMO world can make stuff like this happen. Though I wouldn't ever take the kind of devious actions you have but it does make for great reading.
May your endeavors bode well and our paths never cross.
