Maybe prices were much higher when this was written, but who pays 35m for a Moa? |

If this never actually happened, this guy sure can write.
Although shortly after reading this a few months ago I did look up some of the names he mentioned and some did exist a while ago. -------------------------

Good to see this was unlocked.
You gotta remember this was way back when cruisers were quite new and battleships were rare 35mil sounds stupid price now but back then it was prob the going rate.

Just to note.. I started on release date. the first few days were unplayable do to bugs and such... constant crashes. Once I finally did manage to remain logged in for more than 5 minutes, I did what anyone that wants to see the galaxy would do. I flew a Shuttle far out to the edge of the galaxy. I found that it was just like secure space.. the npc's flew frigates, there were nebula graphix in the Background... so i self destructed my shuttle and pod for the fast way to amsen.... In short. Shuttles have been around since day one.

Ww... Incredible. Thank you for re-posting this. It was entertaining and time consuming. If you're at work, this is a great read. Oh and I take it the economy has changed -a lot- since that.

Surely if this actually took place, old players would remember such a huge scam?
I read this story along time ago. It had me curious about EVE, but GHSC's hit was better.

Yes, it really happened. Commonly known as "The Great Scam".
I remember it, too. It all started with a post on these forums. The guy was offering that same BP pyramid, and while it sounded like a great idea, more experienced players immediately recognized it as a scam and called it one. The guy who posted it stated it was legit, said you had to convo him for details, etc.
Shuttles were around, so were BS, but the market was rediculously inflated. I remember thinking, even as a noob with my first character then, "Shame it's a scam, it'd be great for everyone as an actual plan."
This is a prime example of why people should read forums, not just the trader channels :P.

You are incorrect. There were no shuttles for the first few months of release. You sure you didn't start right after Castor or something? ------------------ Silver Night Director -Production and Science
