Originally by: Rewt ed It's too bad Sig preferred a little bit of isk over valuable friends. The most valuable resource in eve IMO is people.
I'm sure Sig has several outstanding debts probably well into the tens of billions. On occasion he'd approach me or other people in Talon asking for isk. He has asked me for 70b so he could buy an Erebus. Maybe if Sig wasn't so careless with his isk he'd be half decent. One can check his loss mails an ungodly amount of isk wasted. That's the thing though, he never really did anything to support himself or make isk. He just borrowed and borrowed whenever his wallet went dry. The people who split off from Aduro recognized the pattern.
Sig is an idiot. This guy leads a fleet to 0.0, tells us to hold on gate, continues on with a damnation (fitted w/ a cyno and one carrier non-triage on standby) not one system ahead, but two spends 10 minutes looking for targets gets engaged on a gate and IMMEDIATELY cynos in the carrier and proceeds to start screaming and yelling on coms instructing us to help him. We jump through, gate camp from a totally different entity. Dunno how, but this guy managed to get our gang split down the middle in two different systems fighting two different alliances.
Sig is a leech. He's so needy. He didn't pay for hosting for his ventrilo and it was shut off so he bums off my server, which is fine I suppose, I'm not using all the slots. He expects someone to cyno into a system w/ hostiles in a titan so they can bridge him out of system so he can evac his pos fuel. This guy EXPECTS someone to risk 80b+ isk so he can save maybe 50m.
Sig is a back-stabber. It's funny people talking about betrayal here. Especially when you propose to your corp to hop alliances to the other side. That's why you were kicked from Talon. What's funny is people defected from your corp when you proposed this.
From my experience and dealings with Sig, I can say he's not a pleasant person to deal with. The man is one of the most egotistical people you'll meet and he's not really that good at anything so he can't really justify it. From my observation the man abuses and uses those he surrounds himself with. The people who have disassociated themselves are the ones who have had enough.
Cheers, Rewt ed
Lots of harsh criticism about Siig. He does have his strengths, he's not afraid to fight, he is active and he does love yelling at the right time on coms. His weaknesses though can greatly diminish his ability to hold people. What Rewt said about my titan was true. I was also asked for a substantial amount of isk to buy a titan. Instead of giving it away, I offered him to get it within a month for 4 hours a day of gameplay.
He did try to lure me into XT- with my titan to bridge a ship there and back. I simply said that 80+BN is not a good risk for a mere pos. Especially when there were hostiles in a jammed system. I also hold him that it would be better to use a viator. When he hee'd and haw'd about not having time, I had to make it clear that ultimately, he is responsible for his assets, and risking billions for the sake of a few hundred M does not make sense.
I do not know about any dealings about isk or GTC's. I've never loaned him isk, nor bought or sold GTC's. I can say that I pay for eve by the year with PLEX for my accounts, but I don't keep track of what alts are doing in that respect, so I can't comment on those things.
As for ship losses, yes they are hard. I don't know how he makes his money, but if it's borrowed on credit, then his line is nearing it's completion.
When he sent out a corpmail about joining rooks and kings, shortly after trying to lure my Avatar to 0.0 space, things suddenly made sense and Aduro was removed from Alliance by myself. His defectors formed a new corp and remain friends to those in placid to this day.
All in all, people ARE more important than isk. However some people never learned this lesson in grade school.
