What is CCP's official stance on Twitch Giveaways for Eve Online?

I have heard many people claiming recently that giving away in game items, or ISK, to people watching a stream is considered RMTing, is this true??

Thanks for your awesome reply!!Big smile

Some people are asking about this right now, but I don't think theres an official response. The article posted is specifically citing subscriber only giveaways. Giveaways available to everyone or just followers should be fine as no money is involved.

Hmmm sounds murky, definitely something I'd rather not have anything to do with.

What article are you referring to?

What about giveaways where Subs have a better chance at winning (but Followers still have a small chance)?

People can claim whatever they want. At this point in time they are allowed and CCP hasn't said otherwise.
