So you want the guy who originally sold the items that didn't belong to him to keep his money and remain unpunished.
Punished for what? The land areas were sold (given as payment for services) to Marius by the planet partner (Next Island) to do with as he pleases... Which includes selling them.
Seeing as how Next Island gave them to Marius directly, it would be very easy to assume that the land areas were legitimate. Any of us in his position would have assumed the same. Marius pointed out that he tried and tried to get MindArk to allow him to claim the deeds. Marius says that he was never told to not sell them.
Next Island should have known that those Land Areas were not to be put into circulation and as far as why they put them into circulation is unknown. The question there is: Did MindArk clearly communicate to Next Island that those deeds were never supposed to be transferred to anyone in the player base? If they did, then the perpetrator of a scam here is Next Island but then everyone else thereafter in the chain of ownership is a victim.
Then you want the guy who bought and subsequently sold those stolen items to keep his money and remain unpunished.
Stolen? Now you are just making up your own sequence of events. If you read the thread, especially posts which include email correspondence from MindArk to Narfi and Fatal, you will understand this better.
Then you want the guy who finally bought the stolen items to not only keep them but also to reap a huge reward by having them made into standard income-generating land areas..
They aren't stolen deeds.
Next Island created those land areas on their own planet for use on their own planet. If anyone had "ownership" of them, it would be Next Island, who's financially strapped owners decided to use them as payment for services rendered to Marius for him to do with as he pleases. Marius then sold to Narfi, who sold to Fatal.
I'm sure that it's a surprise to a lot of people that MindArk can and does dictate what parts of a Planet Partner's own planet can be sold by the Planet Partner. My guess is that back in those early days, when those deeds originated, the ground rules for such things were not clearly established or communicated, and may have even come into existence after the fact. If you recall, back then there were some outbursts on the forum by frustrated Calypso Land owners who were pissed about the Land Area market becoming so diluted with so many new lands everywhere.

The rightful owner of those Deeds is Fatal and that's because he bought them from Narfi, who bought them from Marius, who received them from the Next Island owners as payment for services rendered. Because Fatal is the owner, and because he had enough balls and faith in this game to invest in it then yes, he should be the one who reaps the rewards and I hope those rewards are enormous. Frankly, he should be commended for having enough gumption to bring this to the forum instead of rolling over and allowing himself to get fucked over by the circumstance of the situation.
