I think they just do the ISK to $ conversion to show how big a heist or battle it was to put it into perspective, right?

In the criminal justice system, the people are represented by two separate yet equally important groups: The baby police, who investigate baby crime, and the baby district attorneys, who prosecute the offenders. These are their stories.

Regy Rusty posted:I think it's "theft" within the world of the game, not real world theft. If something comparable happened in the real world it would probably still be theft, an owner being so incredibly negligent as to ignore repeated security alerts doesn't make a thief not a thief (cops and insurance would be real mad at them though). But in the game no rules were broken, no one was deceived, and nothing of real-world value changed hands. It's the sort of thing you take the risk of when signing up for EVE, and I assume there were in-game ways they could have pre-empted this which they failed to use I mean, it's still "theft" in the sense that you can argue they don't morally deserve it, but CCP is not going to condemn or reverse this because the chance of this sort of thing happening is one of the main draws of the game The $22,000 number is how much money you would have to pump into the EVE in-game store to duplicate the stolen assets. Officially there is no way to get money back out so realizing their gains is going to be a little tricky and involve some online grey or black markets

Vitalis Jackson posted:My friend, have you tried Hamm's? It's made with malted barley, and no rice! I have and I do like it, and it is locally available (if somewhat rare) but it’s PBR tier to me. Same ranking for Old Style. Rainier is like a half notch above. I always make a point to try local cheap heritage beers when I travel to different parts of the US. The only one I haven’t liked is Lone Star. That is some nasty poo poo, I’d rather drink steel reserve. Oh! Another good one: Ballantine’s Ale.

Jonny Nox posted:That poster predates the Viper by close to half a decade? I'm not really sure how you think the Viper came about after that poster, unless you somehow think the latest (2013-2017) model was the first Viper. The Dodge Viper first debuted in 1991. Presumably the poster is from around 2007, 2008. The blue car in the center is a third or fourth generation Viper. The grey Lamborghini is probably a Reventón from 2007-2009. That Porsche is pre-2010 (lol Porsches all look the exact same), and I don't know Ferraris well enough to ID those two, but I'm sure they're more or less contemporary to the others.

haveblue posted:I guess you could do a hostile takeover with one share if literally no other shareholder voted on your proposal So the issue here is an old mechanic they never fleshed out involving shares. What any informed player would do is the CEO would give themselves ALL shares to prevent this. I assume this corporation had all of its shares unassigned. The shares system only works as a way to distribute profits. Because the nuance and mechanics of real shares were totally ignored or not designed in the game 20 years ago, you get these stories every few years. This is a normal tactic for any scammer and it happens all the time. What makes it newsworthy or unique is just how much was taken.

The Dodge Viper first debuted in 1991. Presumably the poster is from around 2007, 2008. It's not the only version of the poster, though. I think it was originally made back in the 80s but was updated for some reason. So the original poster predates the Viper, but obviously the one we are talking about does not because there's a Viper on it. The one I remember might have been this Viperless one: https://www.chairish.com/product/5906983/1980s-justification-for-higher-education-original-framed-poster. Also contains one of the few Porsches that doesn't look exactly like the rest of em. Glottis fucked around with this message at 02:55 on Apr 14, 2023 |

I don't want an expensive rarity that's special and valuable. I drive a 99 Ford Ranger and outside the body work it's the same truck as a Mazda B3000, they are not expensive rarities, they are reliable and they are easy to work on with plentiful parts while not costing fuckin $15k like a good condition 99 Tacoma
