You can contract all your personal belongings to Konno Yoshiho in game.

I hope this guy is going down or I get reimbursement. What is CSM doing for us anyway? Scamming? CCP, is this real ??? Are you dense or just trolling? It's already been said multiple times in this thread, nothing can be done. You fell for a scam. There are *NO RULES* preventing a CSM member from scamming. There are some morale rules. What is CSM doing again? For me, as a player and for the community...Beside scamming... This is EVE Morales smorales and really your expecting a GOON to follow YOUR morals?! 0.0 While your at it, maybe you can expect low sec pirate corps to not shoot you either, if you fly a hulk into low sec and don't pay the ransom.

[/quote] I did hear about goons being scammers...I just didn't expect a CSM, the CSM chairman even to be one of them. I bought ships from Morsus Mihi with 3rd party, found that guy I bought from quite a nice and fun guy...they are red to us but that didn't stop us have a fun chat and do business. So all in all lead me into mistake. I thought pvp is pvp, we shake hands, say gf and no hard feelings. I also thought that CSM are some guys that help CCP to improve the game and make our wishes get to CCP. Oh ****, I was wrong and payed 20 bil to realize it. Still don't know why they appear on forum with that CSM thingie. Could you please set there CSM SCAMMER? So we all know ? Thanks,

But here is a clue, just because someone is elected into a posistion does not make them trustworthy. For that matter, just because someone is a govt official, doesn't make them A. good at it, or B, honest. A healthy dose of skepticism will do you well.

Cerisia Caldari Provisions Caldari State 377	Posted - 2011.11.10 17:05:00 - [248] - Quote At the start of this thread I kinda felt sorry for the chump who donated 20 bil to GSF, as the thread went on and I saw how little he actually knew about Mittens or indeed GSF, or the CSM I realised that he deserved everything he got. He actually gave a huge amount of money to a Goon without doing any research at all into either the CSM , Mittens , or GSF. Man , you deserved everything that happened to you. I wouldn't trust a goon with 20 isk , let alone 20 bil (no offence guys it's just you have a bit of a reputation , one that clearly the OP seemed to miss completely) This space for rent..

CCP can't help because Mittani hasn't broken any rules. If he had broken the rules/EULA whatever then sure, CCP would look favourably towards you. However in this instance, you made a mistake therefore no rules were broken. If you wish to unsub your accounts then so be it, you will still be out of said 20bill, someone is flying a nyx and the rest of us can have a laugh. Enjoy WoW won't you You don't get it, do you? In game scam is ok, is allowed, part of the game. CSM is not ingame syndicate, they actually go and meet CCP in real LIFE ! So CCP deals with scumbags about my future in game? I don't like that, I vote NO ! Let me put it this way. CSM are not part of CCP. CSM's are not CCP employees. CSM's pay to play the game. If people voted for me, I would be a CSM. I get to go to iceland two times a year, hang out. I get to attend meetings with CCP Dev's and shoot the breeze. But that would not make me a CCP employee, just a player, that the rest of eve liked enough to vote to go off and get drunk with the dev's. If I scam you, pod you, take your assets, blow up your alliance, wage war on you, I am free to do that.

You're also terrible at posting, and appear to have deep seated trust issues. Namely, that you trust people waaay to easily. By the way, the saying "there is no such thing as a wrong opinion" is, in fact, wrong. There is such a thing as a wrong opinion, and your opinion that you deserve recompense for being scammed by a player is an opinion that is, in fact, wrong.

Thrawn, you did something incredibly stupid and instead of sucking it up like a man you whined about a game that is "working as intended". CCP isn't there to insure that you make smart, wise choices. They provide the sandbox and we are allowed to play in it any way we choose with a small set of rules. CCP didn't elect Mittens into office, the players did. His job is to address technical game related issues that are raised by his constituents that voted for him and present them to CCP for consideration. His duties end there. Period. You were socially engineered. Unfortunately your idiocy isn't something that the Dev's can fix. To demand that CSM members (whom's duties consist of things done outside of game, such as technical advisement) act by your criterion of moral standards while they are in-game and in-character is laughable and severely naive. Your tears, however, are delicious. BTW - If you get another Nyx, I'll buy it from you for 40bil. I happen to know a very good broker service we can use. Bolding the part you really need to read and read and read and read some more. CCP, gives us the sandbox, how we play in this sandbox(with very little oversight) is up to us. This is a game for adults. If you want to make someone pay for hurting you, there are mechanism for that IN THE GAME. Hell a simple read through Crime and Punishment gives you the mechanisms to make those 2849eaqkidkl593108de's pay.

You still don't get it. he abused me using his position. I do not whine or cry about the isk. isk is not a problem. I fell for it cos I tohught CSM actually means something. My bad. It does mean something. It means "Council of Stellar Management," and the duties of that democratically elected body include talking to CCP and providing them a player's perspective on issues when asked for feedback, and serving as a liaison between CCP and the player base to ease communication. It also includes maintaining the secrecy of a Non-Disclosure Agreement, which was mentioned by a GM who responded to you. If you are imagining some other duties of the CSM, then that is your fault and not The Mittani's fault or CCP's fault or anyone else's fault but your own. Beyond being nominally a constituent of The Mittani and the other members of the CSM, you have no special relationship with the membership of that panel and you are afforded no particular exemptions or protections against player activity in EVE Online as a consequence of their positions as members of the CSM. That you believe otherwise is, again, entirely your own delusion. No wrong has been committed here, except the specific wrong of [A Player] scamming [Another Player], if we are to even believe that is what has legitimately happenedGÇöand to be perfectly honest, that is not a foregone conclusion given how much hate mail is directed at politicians in general, people in leadership positions in EVE Online more specifically, and at Goonswarm and The Mittani in particular. It is entirely possible that you made up this entire episode; but, even if you did not, then the picture you paint is one of things going exactly as they are intended to go: players in EVE Online played the game, and that is all. The End. So I was right. CSM means NOTHING How old are you? What country do you hail from?

Not for 20 bil, it's not about isk, it's just because I hate scammers. So, not only do you lose 20B by falling for the scam, you'll now lose even more to try and get back. Should we expect another thead like this titled "mercenaries stole 5B from me and didn't kill Mittani or that other guy like I asked"? I think the mercenaries will do what they're asked for, otherwise they wouldn't build the reputation as good mercenaries...I don't care about Mittani as a person...he proves that he is just a small crook...a goon leader to set such a scam is a tiny little sad fecktard. That's all. I will follow my principles : Who fucks with me better be ready for a long **...Cos I wanna ** his brains out ^^ Lemme see if I get this right. You couldn't do five seconds of research on good olde mittens to see if he was trustworthy before handing over 20b... but you'll suddenly do research before handing over a merc. contract fee? Well, hopefully you learned your lesson the first time. Otherwise your next forum thread will be even more enjoyable.

Hans Jagerblitzen Autocannons Anonymous 470	Posted - 2011.11.10 17:58:00 - [265] - Quote Seriously everyone, isn't it like written on the box of the game "Come play EvE, you can grief, backstab, lie, steal, and cheat your way to the top - CCP approves." With all the Mittani / Goon misplaced lolhate going on right now, its just as likely this was a faked logs meant to detract from Mittani trying to make some cash. Or, he ripped em off and is lying to cover up. Either way, its totally working the way EvE is supposed to. Anyone surprised that a player, CSM or otherwise, would do this, deserves to lose their isk. There are plenty of reliable supercap escrow personnel, like Chribba, who have spotless records. Trading supers with the leader of Goonswarm is unbelievably naive. He may be legitimate, may not be, but thats the risk you take. EvE has consequences, this stuff is one of them. You may hate the Mittani and the goons all you want, but they are just playing a game, the way it is supposed to be played. Morality is outdated in the distant, sci-fi future - havent we all figured that out by now? Thats the fun of being immortal - you can do whatever you want to get ahead, even things that would be considered despicable by earthly human standards. If you want to be a space do-gooder, theres a place for that. Chribba makes bank because of his stellar reputation. Others make bank because they have a complete machiavellian drive for power and a lack of empathy for those who lose in the cuthroat capitalist utopia CCP has created. Either way, its a role playing game. Emphasis on game. Let the 20 bil be a lesson learned for all parties involved. And be glad you made a mistake in a game, and not with your real money.

There are only two parties involved and the ''third party'' has all the interest in the world to help his bud scam you. I have no tears to cry.
