How did they convince him he'd get skill points and security status back through the scam? I'm genuinely curious. |

Sec status can be bought through tags, which is easy enough. Skillpoints can be bought with your unfathomable rewards via the character bazaar. Belligerent Undesirables Selling Griefer Immunity |

I did some fact checking on this story.
The 'bonus room' is not a game of chance, nor a game of skill. It is a game of nerves. And the contestant, in this case, did not have the nerves of steel required to become a big winner.
He pulled out of the running too early to win big but too late to save the invested assets.

How can you buy plex with real money to pay for a (virtual/gameplay) scam in a video game.
It's not much different than the one who really paid about $4000 for plexing a virtual spacecraft, ganked afterward in no time... |

Eve is an introduction to teamwork, paranoia, dealing with consequences, coping with loss, economics, long term planning, bartering, astronomy, and the theory of space submarine travel.

It's such a crazy notion that it makes me wonder if anyone even thought of it and didn't do it before someone thought of it and did. Genius and madness coming together.

That pretty much how the Bonus Room escalated. Not out of an intent to get them into ****** positions, but out of an intent to get them to quit. Then people just kept going. GÇ£Die tryingGÇ¥ is the proudest human thing. |

This is how i feel as well. One of the things i like about EVE online is that it punishes the stupid and guillable. Retards should go play retards games. *Snip* Removed trolling part of the post.

EvE is like PvP+
Even your own corp-mates (to an extent) are playing against you.
Trust is a seriously rare commodity.
If you don't know the address/phone number of someone you play with then you better use caution when interacting with them.
God won't help you his KB is terrible. |

My general rule of thumb has always been that I will only trust you if I can physically kick you in the balls. GÇ£SandboxGÇ¥ does not mean that you will succeed at anything you attempt; it means you can attempt anything you want to succeed at. One of the largest obstacles in the way of your success is other players. |

My rule is I only trust people who HAVE physically kicked me in the balls. |

Never trust anyone in-game unless you are sleeping with them IRL.
Even then ask - are they only screwing you to screw you? https://forums.eveonline.com/default.aspx?g=posts&t=346564 - a proposal to overhaul the Logistics skill https://forums.eveonline.com/default.aspx?g=posts&t=238931 - an idea for a new form of hybrid PVE/PVP content. www.minerbumping.com - ganking miners and causing chaos |

It would be epic if someone started a rl relationship just to get in position to scam a corp or w/e. Probably against the EULA too. |

I invited several of my family over and I made dinner.
I was naive to leave boom boom online while i was afk given my sister plays eve also.
While i was sitting on the toilet making a deposit my sister was also making a rather large deposit to her character also.
This has caused severe divisions within the family.

You could have prevented this.

hetty B wrote:Hello fellow Eve pilots, i understand most of you here are familiar with the Bonus room scam and the controversy of Erotica1? Well my good friend who i have known for some time decided to try Eve and under my wing i took him in and let him into my corp,now i do realize that i should have made him aware of such a scam but i had no idea he would be so silly as to fall for the bonus room scam. But hey ho he did and has now lost all his isk mostly paid for with real cash and all his SP, they have even had him lower his sec status so concord will keep killing him..
Now he wants to quit the game which is understandable and i have advised him to file a ticket requesting that he get his belongings back and his SP. Now i know there has been many cases like this and players either learn from it or quit but all i want to know is why have CCP still allowed **** like this to happen to new players and not seem to be looking after our new players?
And i know those Cyber bullies like to record there hilarious bonus rounds ,does anyone know where we can find them to listen to it as we would like to determine how serious this one is ?
Cool story, Bro. Your friend is stupid. Erotica 1 for CSM 9! |

Not the sort of drama you can simply flush away.
I like the cut of your sisters jib, is she single?
