Here's the deal, friends. A fellow I know is claiming that he is making HUGE isk income ( Billions, so he says....... ) "scamming" people in certain busy locations by begging and lying his arse off in various ways.
NOW
We all hate beggars, right? So, I bet him a small token sum that I could collect MORE isk than he by simply being honest about the whole project up front instead of crying poor and lying my arse off like he does.
Help me show this fool the error of his ways. Toss me a little ISK, whatever you feel is appropriate for the task at hand, so I can prove to him that honesty *IS* the best policy.
Thanks in advance for your support!

Despite the irony that you're probably not honest and will scam us all for jillions?

What is your friend's name?
I'd like to talk to him, you know, to make sure this goes down fairly.

He won't agree to an "outing". He got mad for me even doing this, claims I'll mess up his income. I say tough noogies, he ought not to be telling lies like that.
So, it is what t is, I suppose.
I'm placing my faith in honesty.

I've got ya beat... dude... I got 1million in donations from my biggest donor thread.
I didn't lie from the start and those donors knew their money wasn't coming back. Hence I didn't scam them... You don't even show who your friend is... and truly if he was your friend he wouldn't have a problem sharing a little bit of the wealth...

He already won. Just admit defeat.
People who appreciate honesty are not that charitable, but STUPID people too rich and/or greedy for their own good just waiting to get scammed are in every backyard.

Ok, you and he win.
Honesty obviously don't count for a damn thing in this game.
At least it is settled. Much easier to play when you know everyone you meet is a potential crook, I suppose.
Cheers!

Sure it does, but it takes years to build up an honest reputation.

Chribba, I would love to see you turn to the dark side.
I would give you literally hundreds of isk if you stole the next Titan you were helping to sell.
Hundreds... and, of course, you get to keep the titan.

People who have never met Chribba REGULARLY trust him with their their money for Motherships and Titans.
Thats years of trustworthyness paying off.
You want trust in this game, you gotta earn it.
Play nice while you butcher each other.
