I'm clearly discussing my massive wallet. I need a special set of pants made with a third leg to put my wallet in.
Now if only they made super-sized currency so that wallet wasn't so damn empty 
:) You should save some more for Riethe's next scam. Don't you think?

I think the people calling scam already are a little premature. Being a bit unlikeable and having a name like "YouGotRipped" doesn't necessarily mean he isn't a good businessman. I haven't personally seen anything from YouGotRipped that would make me strongly thing he would scam. Then again, he hasn't exactly done much to make himself look trustworthy.
Anyway, some things that came up:
Firstly, you say you have 4.6b in mission ships. An impressive figure. However, none of the characters you have named in this thread look like mission running chars... but one of your production alts has some nice CN standing (which he got from another char). This makes me think that you aren't actually using full disclosure here. What character is your mission running character?
I also see a whole lot of failed courier contracts in your contract history/your corps contract history. My assumption would be that you found the goods were more valuable than the collateral... which isn't a big deal, but it doesn't say much for you.
I'm assuming Ewigkeit is your own personal corp - it's the title of this thread and one of your alts is the CEO. But I see 12 characters in it (4 accounts worth) and you've only disclosed 6 characters here. Would you care to comment on the nature of the corp you're in? Coincidentally, the corp standings don't really reflect that of a big mission runner, either.

While I will not be investing, I think these questions need to be answered.

By the way, to anyone that invests in this I would like to say, you got ripped. So don't come crying to me....
Problem with you and many other market regulars is that you cannot see past your limitations and in doing so you drag the whole forum down with you.
Ricdic's gut is upside down btw.
Is it weird that I'm flattered by this. I mean, sure, he's trying to insult me but we get tons of idiots like him passing through and trying to bring down the "establishment" because we warn people not to throw their ISK at them but what I really walk away from this with is the sense that I'm thought of -at least by him- as one of the old guard. I'm really quite flattered to be thrown in with people like Ricdic and Shardale.

Heh, a while back the first time someone used my name in this same manner I had the same reaction you did. It started to become a bit less odd, but when I do stop to think about it I can't help but remember being the new guy who no one around here knew. Of course Ricdic wasn't extremely well known back then either, he definitely wasn't the ultra-trusted name he is today. Ionia, DS, PP, Eefrit, and others were big back then... now almost all of them have barely been around. DS does make a cameo every now and then though. Stacking Penalty / Resists Explained |

Yeh it's kinda funny how things work out. My first appearance on these forums was the countess oracle GPSx issue two years and four days ago and since then I have stuck to the MD forums like glue.
I wouldn't necessarily agree that Eefrit/Ionia were well trusted names back then, they weren't barely known in MD. The regulars back then were Elange4, Erfnam, Argenton, Ferossa etc.
Really, Eefrit and Ionia showed up, hung around for a few months, got their invesmtents hung around for a little bit and left.
I would probably say I am one of the only people left from that era still trolling the MD forums on a daily basis.

I will not go to extreme lengths to convince anyone this isn't a scam. For 6.2 bills this just isn't worth my time. Also I took the liberty of providing only info I deemed necessary and ignored the official IPO template.

My own interest in mission running is limited. I've already named my mission running alt.
However I believe you missed a couple of lines:
Originally by: YouGotRipped As such, I've quite enjoyed myself trading (or ripping people off whatever you want to name it) to the point I've asked some of my friends to play the game too and decided to start a corporation, each of us fulfilling more or less specialized roles.

Correct.

I am in no position to tell my friends how to play a game. Nor would I ever do such a thing. I merely handle trading. Though we've bumped into the standings issue when dealing with R&D agents, all I can tell you is that it's being looked at and we might need to create another corp for those that are still active and committed to the game. I and my alts will remain in the old corp.
As for the rest, keep in mind this is an IPO thread. Refrain from derailing or discussing anything else than the issue at hand.

Easiest way to avoid derailment, don't engage in forum fencing. After all, it is your post that they are discussing. You opened the door, they are running with it. Otherwise, if you hadn't started the derailment itself, I'd just report their posts as "derailment" and let the mods handle it. (That's just some advice from my own experiences.)

Posts like this are exactly why I'd never, for any reason, give you any ISK.
It's an off-hand worthless post that means nothing. Perhaps you think you're being witty somehow. Perhaps you think it's a comeback. Perhaps it's just meant as a flame. Who knows. In reality it is a clear sign of your professionalism. If you aren't professional in your own IPO thread then why should anyone expect you to be professional in your IPO?
There are so many reasons to stay far away from this, I'll name a few:
1. Name 2. Your attitude 3. Your past trolling on this forum 4. Lack of professionalism 5. No reason given to trust you 6. No reputation (at least not a good one) 7. Name Stacking Penalty / Resists Explained |

I don't care where your name comes from, it's reason enough to stay away from anything you do. Just as much as if your name was Aragon, Legolas, Donald Trump, ****ypants, etc.

First, showing past moderations is against forum rules. Second, mods don't catch everything.

You think a 2 bil bond is something that will garner you any sort of reputation when you behave as you do on these forums? Not to mention the pattern that may be coming out of this.
First you did 2 bil, now you're doing 5 bil, next 10-15, then 30+, then 50+, then 100+ if you make it that far without cutting and running. Stacking Penalty / Resists Explained |

No, but it's better than nothing. And I would not have mentioned it if it weren't for your claims.

I get my thrill from trading, refining my methods / exploring the economical aspect of Eve. Money are a means to an end not a purpose in itself. In regards to funds, 6.2 bills is a reasonable amount for what I plan to accomplish and I assure you this is the last time you'll see me asking for funding, yet I'm afraid I'll stick around on these forums for quite a while from now on.

YouGotRipped,
at the risk of derailing the thread & with regard to "concern" over your "name":
you may want to take a look at Chapter 6 of the book "Freakonomics", titled "Perfect Parenting Part II: Would Roshanda by any other name small as sweet?".
here is the slate article summarizing the chapter in case you dont own the book: http://www.slate.com/id/2116449/
it's an interesting premise about "names" and their socio-economic impact.

One day a disciple met Zen Master Harold coming down the road, avoiding ants and eating a stick of cured beef.
"Zen Master Harold," said the disciple, "is there greater Buddha nature in a Slim Jim or a fish sandwich?"
"I have no idea," responded Zen Master Harold.
"Ah, you wish me to reflect my question back on me for further pondering," the disciple reasoned.
"No, I'm not actually a Zen master," said Zen Master Harold. "Zen Master Harold is my name".
"Oh," said the disciple. "But your book -"
"I wrote a novelization of a second-tier George Romero flick for some quick cash in the seventies," said Zen Master Harold. "What is wrong with you people?"

I gotta hand it to ya, "Ripped"... you got some big brass.
I wonder... is it some kind of reverse psychology thing? He gives himself a questionable name, so you think he must really be legit, since no one would announce they're gonna rip you off with the very name they use.
Or is it reverse-reverse psychology, and he was counting on you to think that way?
Or was his character named before he conceived this IPO, and he is simply too stupid to realize his name will be a turn-off to potential investors? Wow, could anyone really be that stupid?
Whatever the answer, I thank you for making my day with this amusing thread. My 100 mil for 100 shares is on the way. I doubt I will ever see my ISK again; indeed, I'll be deeply disappointed if I do.

Wow. What a thing to say in your own IPO thread. Do you think your prospective investors are just sheep with isk?
Thanks for making up my mind for me on this one.
