    Due to popular demand I have created a thread for my wise words of wisdom.

    Feel free to tell me your issues, ECC related or not, here. As long as they are appropriate of course.

    Even ask a question, I'll reply to everything. Some consider my words of wisdom valuable enough for it's own thread, so here I am.

    Please post away, possibly I'll update this daily with a new quote either made by myself or sourced elsewhere.

    Don't worry, be happy :)

    Oh great @obblebobble please bestow thy wisdom upon me and answer my questions...

    what is the airspeed velocity of an unladen swallow?

    and to keep it on task...

    How risky is the loan business? lots of failed contracts? How do you avoid not getting paid back!

    When I find myself in times of trouble
    Father Obble comes to me
    Speaking words of wisdom, let it be.
    And in my hour of darkness
    He is standing right in front of me
    Speaking words of wisdom, let it be.
    Let it be, let it be.
    Whisper words of wisdom, let it be.

    To calculate the airspeed velocity, you must first calculate the swallow's desire to reach terminal velocity. Depending on that we simply calculate their desire (percentage) calculated by the average airspeed velocity of a swallow. Which is roughly 4 bananas.

    Then we simply (very simple) divide the average airspeed velocity of a swallow by the unladen multiplier. Which is 0.7 ECD. You end up with an average airspeed velocity of (give or take 0.1) 2.8 bananas. I hope I helped.
    ============================

    Seriously though, very risky. My contracts don't fail, the other parties do. I've lost over $3,000,000 from loans. The ways I avoid getting paid back are all dependent on:
    - Your contracts
    - Your in game contracts
    - The choice between using an in-game or forum-contract
    - Personality of the borrower
    - Loan reasons
    - Experience of borrower, whether with us or on ECC
    - History with loans
    - Attitude in game (similar to personality but more focused on moral/legal decisions in game)




    African of course.


    You were involved in the discussion last night. Everyone. Is. Involved.

    This deserves a quote on the official page. Which words of whispering wisdom would we want written?

    I offer advice. Not donations. ;)



    I'll be here to be your savior. I don't know the song though, so my words won't be in lyrical form.

    Eekelmo can no more be forced to join than a stomach can be forced to digest food by persuasion.

    Perhaps he should explore his opportunities before committing to a decision. This choice can be made by no other than himself.

    Gambling. The sure way of getting nothing for something.

    If that is what you wish, then please, bet your money at /warp debt. If you wish to prosper then please avoid doing so.
