I recall discussion in the last thread about how to deal with Machariel fleets and one idea thrown around being "buy them all." https://twitter.com/1Ronbank/status/718438147751813121 Where the hell do people get money like this. Christ. Had you asked me a few months ago whether I thought something so niche as an EvE Online gambling site would be popular enough to make good cash, I'd have knee-jerked a "no." I shouldn't be surprised -- Somerblink was huge as well. It is just hard to wrap my head around the sheer volume of transactions needed to amass retarded wealth like that. What would places like Somerblink or IWI make on each transaction? We talking about a ballpark of, like, 5%? 1%? 0.001% on each user transaction?

Or the mistakes that got us here in the first place. While you come up with non-witty responses, and try to squelch a voice of reason.

He's the banker (guy who pays out winnings) for IWantIsk that had the whole issue with SMA and then paid off TISHU etc. to go harass them that led to this war. I don't remember how much they said they made, but the EVE-Bet guys I know said they make a fair amount but, iirc, it's not off percentages for them. Their payments are based off lump sums for the amount of work done during that period of time. Goons tried their hand at a Somerblink replacement not long after Somer got banned and the site shut down, but I don't know why it didn't pick up. EVE-Bet is great and you should check it out.* *This is a paid endorsement. Mekchu fucked around with this message at 16:54 on Apr 8, 2016 |

Endie posted:That is at one end of the range of potential outcomes: a smaller, goonier group gradually shedding some of the shitter J4Dek corps and Waffe presented with some exciting things to do on a long road to recovery. The other end of the spectrum is a successful defence of Deklein and glorious fightback. Waffe is the most J4Dek corp, so the next version should not have Goonwaffe in it. It's also not that big of a corp real people wise, I would put the amount of actual actives in Goonwaffe below the 400 mark.

Most eve gambling sites take about a 13% spread which is in line with real life slots or many table games. So on a 1bn isk raffle the site has made about 130m

I don't play EVE, but I do like reading about the antics. I was wondering how this casino thing hasn't been shut down completely, since it sounds shady as all hell/borderline RMT. So the answer is that CCP doesn't actually care.

Once you are the "it" site then you're pretty much set until the server goes dark or you get caught for rmt. These dudes are a little smarter than somer was in that they have layers of protection shielding themselves from rmt stings.

They are turning a blind eye to people that are violating the TOS and literally making tens of thousands of dollars on this game through illegal means, but they don't care because the people in question do just enough to appease to stay under the radar. But god forbid if goons do something like Forex to generate infinite amounts of ISK because goons are evil and exploiting 's own stupidity and rubbing their dumb faces in it in order to make them fix their own dumb fuckups and not break their stupid game makes us the bad guys. Seriously, it takes goons abusing broken mechanics for them to loving do anything to make this lovely game better.

Pretty soon the people from reddit are just going to begin screencapping this thread and posting it on r/eve as evidence of some kind of goon collapse because people with SA accounts are posting negative things about goonwaffe and all SA users are in goonwaffe and goons are goons no matter the game or organization checkmate mittens

Yeah. I don't gently caress with IWI and use EVE-Bet basically only for big UFC fights. I don't think they're half as bad as some of the pro-Dota, League, etc. gambling sites but maybe that's just me being more wary of real world gambling sites which is probably dumb.
