So I was browsing escrow, and noticed an escrow for 0.0 ISK, which contained a Rattlesnake, (Guristas Faction Scorpion) which retails at roughly 1.7 billion ISK.
I have the name of the person whom placed the escrow, and if he or she comes forward to me, via evemail, in the next hour with adequate proof of ownership of said battleship, I will return it at no charge.
If no claim to ownership is made within 60 minutes of this post, the Rattler will be sold at auction to feed my string of illegitimate half-gallente children.

Wait a sec...
So if a ship is in space you blow it up, take a sec hit, and scoop whatever is left but if the ship is in escrow for 0.0 ISK you don't take it but instead you make sure it gets back to the proper owner safe and sound?
Oh I get it. You give him back the ship, he feels grateful and gives you some ISK as a thank you gesture, then you wait for him to undock and THEN you blow him up and steal his cargo! Very evil, veeeerrrry evil.

I find this one hard to believe, in fact, I believe you have all fallen victim to another PR Stunt by Verone. If such an event happened, why hasn't the original owner come forward on an alt to say Thank you or something along those lines?? Not to say that you're not an honest player, I am myself, but I don't think anybody in their right mind would given back something like that under any circumstances.
I feel this is just another case of Verone boosting his ego and all you guys fell victim to it. Just because Verone is somewhat of a 'celebrity' doesn't mean that everything out of his mouth is 100% true. I mean, there's a reason that he's one of the PR masters.

So I was browsing escrow, and noticed an escrow for 0.0 ISK, which contained a Rattlesnake, (Guristas Faction Scorpion) which retails at roughly 1.7 billion ISK.
I have the name of the person whom placed the escrow, and if he or she comes forward to me, via evemail, in the next hour with adequate proof of ownership of said battleship, I will return it at no charge.
If no claim to ownership is made within 60 minutes of this post, the Rattler will be sold at auction to feed my string of illegitimate half-gallente children.

I don't care how much of a 'golden heart' that you people claim that he has. There isn't any written proof of this transaction posted anywhere on here. Believe what you want to believe, but this never happened.
I just feel that Verone and Veto haven't been in the news in the last couple of weeks so he felt it necessary to concoct some elaborate story to make himself out as a hero once again. Now granted, he's good at what he does. He does honor all ransom demands and all that, but cm'on people. He duped y'all.
I'm not trolling or anything of that sort, I'm just trying to shed some light on this thing. I mean, Verone doesn't seem the sort to just sit there and camp escrow. There are about 5000 other people doing this on a daily basis, so my question is this. What are the odds of a known Pirate such as Verone in a station, with nothing else to do, camping escrow and not to mention, he had time enough to remember the character's name while he was frantically trying to click, 'claim escrow'?
Food for thought....

Originally by: Mosara I find this one hard to believe, in fact, I believe you have all fallen victim to another PR Stunt by Verone. If such an event happened, why hasn't the original owner come forward on an alt to say Thank you or something along those lines?? Not to say that you're not an honest player, I am myself, but I don't think anybody in their right mind would given back something like that under any circumstances.
I feel this is just another case of Verone boosting his ego and all you guys fell victim to it. Just because Verone is somewhat of a 'celebrity' doesn't mean that everything out of his mouth is 100% true. I mean, there's a reason that he's one of the PR masters.
Verone, I personally think you're full of ****. Bring some proof.

Yeah, indeed a very, very kind thing to do. Quite rare. I have to say, I would'v been very tempted to keep it myself (or rather, resell it for full price). But I probably would've felt overly quilty about it, and just might've given it back in exchange for a nominal (compared to market value) fee.
Still, I hope I'll get lucky like that some day

Yes. The Eos gets vey little bonus towards it's guns at all. It is more alligned towards gang combat, and pure staying power while supporting other members of the gang, while the Astarte is more alligned towards damage.
It's pointless wasting the grid on heavier weapons, when it can make an excellent anti-frigate platform, put up an insane tank because of it's repairer and resistance bonuses, and effectively support other members of the gang with gang assist modules.
Think of the Eos as an oversized Ishtar, and the Astarte as an oversized Deimos.
Oh, and think before you hit "reply", it does help

Hmm, sounds like a fishy story to me. I mean, if this really happened why didn't you just send the escrow owner a private message rather than posting in the forums? I mean, a good deed becomes a bit tainted when you have to tell everyone, "Hey, look at me! Look at what I did! I'm such a great guy!". Seems like ego boosting to me.
And the screenshot doesn't really prove much either. Especially when the time at the bottom left was somehow left out. I don't know, I guess I'm just a skeptic but your story seems a bit thin, Verone.

How praytell did you beat the 0.0 and 0.1 isk escrow claim bots to get this rattlesnake? You would have to either 1. be an escrow botter yourself, or 2. a liar.
You are never ever just "browsing" escrow these days and see something up for 0.0 isk. It simply won't happen.

I have the name of the person whom placed the escrow, and if he or she comes forward to me, via evemail, in the next hour with adequate proof of ownership of said battleship, I will return it at no charge.
If no claim to ownership is made within 60 minutes of this post, the Rattler will be sold at auction to feed my string of illegitimate half-gallente children.

Urm. Why post here asking for proof if no proof could possibly be provided? The only proof that exists would be the name of the person that set the escrow, which you already know?
The only reason to take this to the forums is to start a "I'm so honourable" thread about yourself.
Call me cynical, but I'm starting to see some sense in what others have said, doubting that the rattlesnake existed at all.

Yeah, but I could do the same with anything I've got in my assets. I don't have a rattlesnake, but until a few days ago I could have done it with a freighter, or I could do it with a Core X repper or something.
I just see no reason for him to post to the forums asking for proof that could not possibly exist, when he already had all the proof he could possibly need.

So I was browsing escrow, and noticed an escrow for 0.0 ISK, which contained a Rattlesnake, (Guristas Faction Scorpion) which retails at roughly 1.7 billion ISK.
I have the name of the person whom placed the escrow, and if he or she comes forward to me, via evemail, in the next hour with adequate proof of ownership of said battleship, I will return it at no charge.
If no claim to ownership is made within 60 minutes of this post, the Rattler will be sold at auction to feed my string of illegitimate half-gallente children.

I never will have the ultimate proof about what the truth was but it doesen't matter, because:
If it's PR, then it could'n have been better done, and if it's true, then it's aristocratically elegant.
Congrats, Verone
