No proof otherwise either... better safe then sorry
Again, I'm not encouraging people like you to give more freely. I'm encouraging you to show a bit more restraint. Not tearing him to pieces for begging isn't exactly going to cost you. You could save yourself some valuable time by just moving on.
I'm sitting bored at work.. I'm already making cash for my time.. I can afford to spend a little on the boards typing whatever I like.

If his need actually is genuine, you've got no information as to why he can't afford it himself. Suppose he is a teen in school?
I'm sure there are thousands of high school teens playing this and many other games that don't beg for money.
So you think that their families all make the same income? That they all get the same allowance? Boy you've got a big cookie up there.
No of course not.. just think that anyone that cannot afford to play a game shouldn't be trying to beg for money to play the game when its obvious they need to spend more time earning money.

Suppose he already has a full-time job, one which covers his needs but leaves no room for luxuries like online gaming?
If it leaves no room for luxuries such as online gaming.. then why is he here except to beg for money?
"...one which covers his needs..." - I was highlighting the possibility that he can't afford a subscription because of his income, not because of his schedule.
I wasn't refering to his schedule either and you vey well know that. If his job cannot cover the cost of playing this game.. it cannot be much of a need.. more of a want. You dont always get what you want.. he wants to play a pay to play game but he dosen't have the money.. therefor he comes and begs for money..

Rubbish. Please note that I did not explicitly defend his request; rather, I pointed out that there was absolutely no reason for you lot to go and bite his head off for his having asked. You don't know that it's a scam. If his need actually is genuine, you've got no information as to why he can't afford it himself. Suppose he is a teen in school? Suppose he already has a full-time job, one which covers his needs but leaves no room for luxuries like online gaming? You really do need to try thinking a bit before opening your traps.

Edited by: Dred ''Morte on 07/09/2007 19:25:26 I run two accounts. I pay both my accounts by buying GTCs with ISK. I'm 16 so I can't work anywhere, at least not legally. My parents won't pay my month fees anymore, if it wasn't for the fact that internet is so important for my studies, they probably wouldn't pay the Internet either. I thank my good friend ex-CEO Hellcross for lending me ISK to pay a GTC for "my" alt (that belongs to my cousin).
I'm lucky I got to the point where I can make enough ISK to pay GTCs before my parents could no longer pay the month fees. This player *could* be in a similar situation. So how about you guys grow up and stop being so stupid? Sure, he may be a scammer, but he also might not to be.

Originally by: Dred 'Morte Sure, he may be a scammer, but he also might not to be.
The simple fact that 1. He's begging on the forums when rules dictate its not allowed and that its stupid to beg, and 2. the off-handed chance this is some lame attempt to scam is also in the air.
Either way, if he's legitimately needing a 30day, he works for it, not us.
Note: Coming from a country where 15US$ for a 30day GTC is a lot of cash, I completely understand the attitude of some who feel EVE is an expensive game to pay to play. But I pay for it with my own cash, simply because I dont want to feed GTC-for-isk sellers, and to an extend, RL-for-isk sales. -

If he really wants it.. there is always panhandling on the corner... His begging would probably be more effective there. ------------ This is not War... This is pest control - Dalek Sek

In some countries, minors arent allowed to hold jobs, even if part-time/1-off/summer type jobs. One of those countries happens to be where I live.
Sucks to be us, yes, indeed. -

Originally by: Bambukol Hi ! I'm playing for 2-3 days. I like this game, but I can't afford buying Game Time Code. Maybe there is a group of good players, that will help me to buy this using ISK ? Now I have about 750k ISK, but I'm still fighting, completing missions etc. Want to try Salvage when I will be able to do this, but I'm afraid that in 12 days I wouldnt be able to earn 180kk for GTC.
ps. please, dont laugh :(
ps2. If there will be someone to help me with this, I will try to give back ISK as soon as possible.
Thanks at all
You missed a player in the C&P forum that was quiting EVE, she gave people lots of stuff.
Heard she gave people bpo's worth billions and million of ISK. Had you seen it yesterday you would had a chance to jump start your career.
Hurts, doesnt it?

OK, first off, a 16 yr old kid has no place telling ANYONE to grow up (lol@noob@RL).
Second, why the FLUP is this thread still alive?!?!@???@@#??!?!??1111oneoneONE?
In the 2+ years that I have been posting, I have never seen a thread like this live past the first page before getting locked with some message about 'no begging on the forums'. -=^=-
