        How could these people still be pumping in this much money into fake ships with no output?

        They have to be doing something funky when that money. Or a laundering front.

          Their financials are more public than many companies, you can dig through them yourself if you suspect something.

          They summarize everything from their most recent financial statements here.

          Or you can review everything in much more detail with what they submitted to the UK here.

          Direct link to the most recent 51 page document here.

          As far as fake ships, most of the announced ships have already been released and are playable today. They’re continuing to release new major updates a few times a year that anyone can play. So, I’m not sure what you mean by “no output”.

            Bruh… First, holy shit you’re out here writing a paragraph defending this scam from a half sarcastic comment.

            Second, holy shit, you think they’re the first front to file legal paperwork and cook the books?

            Jesus man, you’ve been scammed, don’t try to be their lawyer.

              You’re absolutely right, I should have just followed Hitchens’s razor from the start:

              What can be asserted without evidence can also be dismissed without evidence.
