EVE General Discussion

Reddit, sperging the hardest you say?

that will be ok if contains all the ppl and no only some

You mean they're outting their useless RMT accounts that have negative wallet balances so large as to make keeping them pointless. Yes, I can see how this might be construed as legit attempts to distance themselves from supposedly unknown RMT'ers.

On the other hand, characters with such large balances don't get those balances by being quiet or by not making a business out the game. So, Test's sincerity in this matter is dubious at best.

You know....when a character has a negative balance smaller than say 10b or less, one might assume he bought RMT isk or traded or earned the isk or purchased through plex or what not completely on his own. When those balances start hitting the negative 10's of billions of isk, something more is going on and there's not much you can do to convince me it isn't conspiratory throughout the alliance rather than individually.

You rock sreegs. You have fans, keep it up

I can confirm that Goonswarm was not affected by this. Noone in the alliance RMT's.

I did not say all of Test were RMT'rs. However, it's highly unlikely that noone in Test with authority doesn't know who RMT. And therefore, the sincerity of the act of outing their RMT'rs when those accounts are no longer able to serve a purpose AFTER the fact that they've been discovered and penalized is disingenuous?

How many people in a group of people don't know that some are potheads or who in the group sells pot? Some may not know, some do know, some facilitate and some participate.

IF this is the way they did it then I am very much against this crap.

Large alliances with thousands of active people selling ships, contracts and all sorts of services cannot be suddenly hammered to the ground with huge negative isk accounts because some people used rmt isk to buy stuff from them and some dev is using a dumb db script.

As much as I support Sreegs efforts to clean the world from rmt if this is the way it is done we are harming people that play the game instead of harming those that cheat. In a sense it is an even worse way for the cheaters to destroy the game if they are able to provoke this kind of random havoc.

I would expect someone HUMAN and WITH A BRAIN to look closely at the list of bannable accounts that comes out of these scripts and THINK FOR THIRTY SECONDS about implications and trying to understand WHAT IS REALLY GOING ON. CCP should investigate stuff, not randomly ban people.

I may be wrong but if I have to choose between Shamis being a cheater and Sreegs being trigger happy and dumb, I'll go with the one that has more Alliance Tournament wins. There's some love for the game right there.

CCP seems to take matters like this pretty seriously. I think you can safely assume that any implicating data generated would be investigated before penalties were assessed.

Ahhh!
It could not happen to a better bunch of ppl!
Keep it up CCP!

*munch munch munch* tasty popcorn!

Thus the PLEX/Ratting/ MOAR RMTing begins to get them out of the hole.
