Looks like my worse fear of skill injectors was right on, been 3 years since i've seen isking spam in local, and what do i see 6 hours after the patch? i see messages 6 lines in a row that says

buy isk here, giving out free accounts if you buy in bulk

so thanks CCP for adding in P2W buttons

now the market will get destroyed even more than before, with trillionaire players modding up specialized alts for real cash sells

You know you can report them.

The only thing getting out of hand are the ridiculous waste-of-electron threads like this.

Cool your jets guys, pretty sure personal attacks and swearing are against forum rules, OP was at least civil despite being possibly wrong. One sighting of an isk spammer doesn't equal a returning problem, we'll have to wait and see if they do in fact come back. I don't see it because PLEX still exists as a legal form of RMT.

This post brought to you by CCP's alpha forum alt initiative. Playing the eve forums has never come cheaper.

So I logged in my Jita alt, figured I'll see how bad it is and report them. Haven't seen many, TBQH.

Just the usual Jita scam spam.

Maybe it is the guys using chinese characters. Nope, just another contract.

In fact, haven't seen any at all.

I bet most of the spammers are Bumblefck alts.

I havent seen isk spammers in either jita or amarr the last couple of days and ive spent a good amount of time in both. Just the usual scams in local.

Sometimes you are the squirrel and sometimes you are the nut. Today, you are the nut and the squirrel is hungry.

Please post your thoughts in a concise and clear manner while avoiding going off on rambling tangents.

22. Posting regarding RMT (Real Money Trading) is prohibited.

Posts discussing, linking to, or advertising RMT, including but not limited to the sale of in game items, assets, currency, characters or game accounts for real life money are strictly prohibited.


You are Encouraged to report ISK Spammers whenever you see them. You may not get an instant result, but it does work. Locked.
