Dear [member="Zef Halo"],

In regards with your Popcorn Producing Company, I would wholeheartedly support this.

#AddTheSalt, #MoarButterPlez

Sincerely,
Your Favorite Customer

After reading the rules, this is what I have to say.

I do not believe any rules were broken here.

I assume you are talking about "No Outrageous Bids." None of the bids here were outrageous. An outrageous bid is bidding a Star Destroyer for a pair of mass-produced shoes. Bidding this much for Revan's Mask? Nah.

Revan is one of the most revered Sith Lords of all time. His mask is the symbol that represents him. When you think of Revan, you think of his mask. Therefore, it is reasonable to assume that his mask is one of the most revered Sith artifacts in existence.

People literally worship the dang thing. One could amass an army of followers just by possessing such an artifact. So 20 million for it? I wouldn't consider that overly excessive.

As [member="Ultimatum"] so wisely put in the thread, the value of such a controversial item is up to the bidder. A mask salesman could see it worth 20 credits, a Sith Lord could see it worth 20 million.

Though I agree with you on the fact that it's unfair just anybody can go for it now, you just have to deal with it. What's done is done. If you want it, then suit up. Can't fight? Hire someone. Don't want to? Sucks for you.

Questioning the validity of my bids was also not up to you. Janus owns about 5 companies, 2 criminal syndicates, and has countless assets and allies willing to help. Leave the investigation of other's bids to [member="Miss Blonde"], not yourself.

I laughed pretty hard at that xD

Because its totally believable that a guy who doesn't even have a character sheet mind you, because lord knows I tried checking your content to see if you had any affiliation to half the groups you claimed to, has that many resources. And yes you were making outrageous bids, because you put starships worth 120 million credits apiece (I valued them less than the Imperial SD in canon for your sake and its still ridiculous), 240 million credits total I'd say, up for the mask. Not every system could afford a fleet for themselves either. So you claim to have more individual wealth than entire governments of wealthy Inner Rim systems. So a guy, who claimed to have the TU backing him, which btw isn't on an existent character sheet, when I know the FAs of the TU and IC my character met them, is a load of poodoo. Even if there is TU affiliation, to give away 2 destroyers, among other things, for a personal purchase. . . . had it gone through any boss in real life would have hung Janus for using organization resources for a personal accessory.

People can literally click find content to see what you've posted in IC, its not that much, no way you have the wealth you claim and if you're spending organizations your part of I still find it more likely in reality Black Sun would take the cost out of your hide then take the mask for themselves than let just anyone spend their resources on private matters. You were outrageous in your bid and only that.

I love the fact everyone seems to be on your side though its hilarious when the facts are viewable by anyone willing to click a few buttons, read your threads, a few wookieepedia pages, and your posts in the auction. Its really absurd. You were clearly breaking the rules.

You're right it doesn't and since it doesn't affect a majority of roleplays it shouldn't.

But when the whole point of an auction is to spend money. You damn well need to have it. A guy with no character sheet (that right there is enough to have a headache over Janus) claiming to be wealthier than entire systems with less than 10 IC threads to his name, who isn't the leader of the Black Sun or TU but is spending copious amounts of their resources, on a personal accessory.

How does any of the above not sounds silly and ludicrous?

Revan had actually built this Sith temple, it was part of his plan with the Mass Shadow Drive, a superweapon of massive destruction. It made Malachor what it was today. Voidless, empty, and hungry.
Can I ask how you know about the Mass Shadow Drive? How you know it is a superweapon of mass destruction? And that Darth Revan built this Sith Temple?
 
[member="Camellia Swift"]

Actually, this character does have a sheet. Janus is an alternate identity for [member="Lord Ajihad"]. And you want proof of me owning these factions/companies?

[member="Rayl Wilded"] can confirm Janus owns the Suns (Though we're not active any more, R.I.P ;( ) And who's tanning my hide for bidding a few ships when I technically own all of them? #logicpls

[member="Werah Unon"] can confirm that I was backed by the TU in this auction (he even added to my bid, please actually read the thread before making assumptions)

Any number of people can confirm Janus owns the Consortium and its subsidiary, check our contract terminal/approved companies

[member="Killian"] can confirm Ajihad/Janus owns Kalor-Tech Industries, as he gave ownership to me in a thread I'd link if I wasn't on mobile

[member="Jeron Verity"] transferred ownership of his company to me when he left

I founded the InterGalactic Triad, look it up in factions to check (though we are also no longer active)

(Some of threads in which the proof will be shown is under Ajihad btw)

Not saying this auction wasn't costly, Janus lost a lot. However, I bid what I felt was necessary. End of story.

So next time, please dig a little deeper before making accusations that are embarrassing to both yourself and anyone reading your posts. Thank you.

[member="Camellia Swift"], why don't you look at the man's character sheet like he said?

I mean, when I go to it, it brings up [member="Lord Ajihad"], who is the owner of those companies, and is the owner of the Black Suns...

Look, if you don't like it, then take it to staff. Otherwise, please quit posting about how its unfair. Yes, I know it is unfair. But do you see me complaining how a lightsaber I was bidding for started at 1k and ended up at 1 million? for a generic lightsaber... Its a game. This entire site is a game.

Just because someone said no, does not mean you can make post after post about how its not fair. Well, apparently you can since you are, but honestly, do you think people come back to this thread to listen to your views, or just to see drama take place? Cus, I have a feeling, the latter will be winning that fight.

Anyways, What has happened, happened. If you don't like it, well then you are S.O.L because it's not changing. Yes, the writer may have done this, and upset people like yourself, [member="Romeo Sin"], and [member="Janus"], However, both of the two other writers see that this is a chance for them to keep their credits, and fight for what they want. If they lose, well then I guess they are in the same boat as you.

Either way, its annoying to see you constantly posting in this thread. I am following this thread because I was interested in what would happen to the Mask. Since you know, it would be filmed on live television? As well, you are filling up my notifications with needless junk. Quit being butthurt and making accusations against [member="Janus"].

Thank you.
 
Why do I get the feeling that Ven would be tempted to try and get the mask just to break it in half?...
I doubt I'll join the IC thread, but I'll probably be watching it for the laughs.
 
[member="Camellia Swift"]

Also:

Ajihad has about 1700 post on that account. Adding that to Janus, that's like literally the exact amount of posts you have. Many more than 10 IC threads, I can assure you.

This may just be the best returning thread I'll ever do. If you're serious about helping me, just shoot me some info in a PM. I'll probably get on skype in about twenty minutes as well, if you'd prefer that.
