Santa or Satan

At about 10:30 or 10:40 p.m. Eastern time a pilot by the name of Blahblahson began doling out large quantities of cash. Some players denounced him as a hacker, others took the cards gladly.

He was level 90 in a Raven's Talon with nothing but Justice I's and a civilian ID. He gave out tens of millions of credits. I do not have screen shots, but I do have a pilot by the name of Shaun_Callahan sitting in Manhattan with 6 10X10^6 in credit cards in his hold. It would be nice if someone could clarify whether this person was hacking so that I would know whether to cash in or dump the cargo in the cold void of space.

Can anyone help me out?

Ditto to me too.. I didn't know WHAT was going on.. at the time I thought it was a guy playing angel and helping newbs out. I was thinkin.. leave him alone.. it's his money.. let him enjoy his generosity before he deletes his characters. (I believe I even posted that in system chat)

I have no idea if he's "legit" or an actual hacker. Guess I'll have to wait untill the admins seive the logs.

Now before you flame me for "being/acting stupid" I try VERY hard not to assume the maximum negative about anyone on this server. Give people the benefit of the doubt and they usually are nice to you. (or at least they dont blow you out of space w/o warning:)

Last but not least.. he gave my Junker character .. ol' Jim Rhyder a full billion credits.

I HAD planned on continuing what I THOUGHT were his good works.. ie.. helping out niblettes with help (ie cash or gear) exactly as Angelfire had mentioned in his post about "server angels".

My boy Jim and his wife Sally ( and their 4 kids) are quite happy with their current ship (pirate train) and the life they lead as station to station shippers and couriers. He doesn't need the billion.. and hoped to do some good with it.
