lol, observation on the database.
The "observation on the database" was a mis-observation made by somebody clearly unaware that the EVE API can be downloaded by a cron job and converted into SQL with Perl scripts. I have just short of 250,000 trades stored, updated every two hours, and I've written a fair few Java and spreadsheet front-ends for analysis.
The "mis-observation" was a question, not an observation. Learn to read next time buddy. |

Someone in Motsu thougth he could buy out my orders to do a nice speculation. He forgot Jita was only 6 jumps out. After a while I got a mail asking to stop dumping stuff. I told him he had not even consumed 25% of my stock ;) and if he would like me to contract the rest to him at the same price... he ended up contracting me all stuff back, which give me a nice profit. ;) |

Sometimes I'll send an email and threaten someone just to cheese them off so they waste time trying to "teach me a lesson" so while I am going out to parties and having sex with supermodels, they are sitting in their moms basement playing Eve. Talk about 0wned. |

Just keep doing whatever you are doing. It is obviously working.
Sacrificing your own profit to try to 'harm' another player really won't work against someone who knows what they are doing. (Although the fact he bothered to complain to you in the first place shows this may not be the case)
Getting into and out of markets is trivially easy. Our goods don't spoil, so barring long term price adjustments, people can just wait out whatever short term price manipulations you introduce, so even if you catch him with a load of stock on his hands it's hard to really harm someone who just sits in a station and trades all day (esp if they contract out the actual hauling).
I see people trying to tank the profit margin all the time. I simply wait & trade other modules until they think I am gone , and restore their sell/buy orders to normal levels, then jump back in.
If you really want to hurt someone you should get them to invest in your IPO then scam them. |
