hmm a few people come to mind but I shall remain silent. My trolling days are over for my talents are needed elsewhere in the land of EvE. Gotta keep those Russians in check. Anyways only fools get scammed and its a lesson better learned over pixels than in RL.

I can't find it now but I saw a show or video somewhere explaining how they made the video. The entertainment center never actually fell on the kid.

On live guides would soulmark a player if the player admitted to sharing their account details. This is a note which is tied to the player's account which CSR staff could view. If that player had issues with lost or deleted items, characters etc. they were completely out of luck.
I am glad to see that the P1999 staff can and do help people with things which were never / rarely helped with on live. It is a lot of work I am sure to trace the items etc and recover them so take heed of the advice and don't trust people. It's sad but a reality of life.

Sharing accounts was against the EULA on live, so only getting a soulmark for violating that was their version of letting it slip by. Here, it's not against any rule, but you do so at your own risk.

I was a guide during the petition era and have never heard of soulmarking for sharing info not sure about that one.

It sounds like you're helping people who's accounts have been compromised. Is there any way to help people who have simple lost their passwords?
