ebank starting 2 smell like a scam there asking 4 2 much isk in a very short space of time TBH
You're an idiot.
Why are you an idiot? Because several of the individuals running Ebank could each sell out 100B bonds and have between them easily 500B so why the **** would they ruin their reputations over this small amount? The answer is, they wouldn't and anyone that thinks they would is an idiot. There collective reputations are worth easily 10x this amount and even if they were scammers they aren't stupid enough to waste it on this trifling amount or even the some total of funds in Ebank, not that they have access to all of them as a significant portion is on loan, hence the issuance of this bond. If the people running Ebank were to run off with all the money presently available in it, it would be one of, if not the worst scams on an ISK/hour basis.
BTW, at least have balls to troll with your main Ufl.

You said you had a run on the bank
What you DIDNT say is WHY you had a run on the bank
The assumption that it wasnt necessary to mention why you had a run on the bank was because everybody already knew is a little disingenuous to say the least
Listen Hexxx. Ricdic screwed up and as a consequence you are having to ask for 50billion off of joe public. The idea that you can quietly push this through without any in depth discussion of how all this came about is just dumb.
Based on the numbers I was quoted the "run on the bank" was not that substantial of an amount, only 8B. That may be an unusually high amount of withdrawals for Ebank but it only represents a tiny portion of the cash they have on reserve and the cash they usually loan. Most of that 50B they're requesting is to facilitate further loaning, not to cover their current accounts so they are not asking for money because Ricdic screwed up, they're asking for money so they can operate like a Bank and issue loans. By the way, I'm in a good position to know because I was told my 5B loan request was dependent on them being able to raise more capital, aka. this bond. They could have avoided mentioning the run on the bank entirely but they're completely forth right even if it gives ammunition to trolls.
I stand by my earlier, edited, comments that anyone believing Ebank is a scam at this juncture is of particularly limited mental abilities and or taking an untenable position purely to troll, which I consider one in the same. If the persons running Ebank wanted to scam several of them have the reputation such that they could issue IPO's in excess of a 100B and between them hit a tillion in capital in addition to that stored within Ebank. To suggest that a number of highly respected members of this board would collude and loose their reputations to scam 50B is quite simply idiotic.
By the way, post with your main! Alt trolling is about as lame as it gets.
Mitnal: if you have a problem with that statement you might as well just ban me as there's no point posting here anymore when blatant trolling is left untouched and my denunciation of it is edited away. My response may have been harsh but at least it was based in reason, unlike the trolling you left behind.  At least CCP Saint bothered to lock yesterday's "lets troll Ebank" thread....

Yes im needing a loan if someone could plese get with me ingame or evemail me that would be good i dont need much.
I see you use to be Chambas but you sold your main and are trying to buy a new character. So basically you have zero reputation and yet want people to loan your faceless alt money. Oh and you have no scruples against posting in every thread with the word loan in it yet don't want to bother contacting the loaners listed in one of those threads. It's almost as though we made that thread so people wouldn't spam the forum with requests for small personal loans....

Question - at the close of the bond...how will the funds be returned to investors? Into a checking account? Sweep?
Thank you.
Since most people will already have money in the interest bearing accounts which are capped at 1B (the minimum value of this bond) I would assume it will be deposited into your sweeps account. Anything else would be breaking their own caps.
