I had a long time, well established, corp mate who was wrongly tagged for RMT over a year ago. It took over a week for his petition to be resolved and was ultimately denied. He rejected several offers from corp mates to donate isk to cover his loss and PLEX'd his way back. He quit the game a few months later.

So forgive me if I am less gung-ho about your "No false positives, everyone gets taken care of" line as I was in the past.


Have witnessed the same identical situation, with the difference it took 3 weeks for him to get the first reply.

Yes, that;s the point of it.

But you see, if you ask the many pubbies here *looks for hands shooting up* they'll tell you it's all fake.

Yes, our reimbursement gives out the same stuff that the titans we sell to reds are made of.


Smoke and mirrors and fairy dust?

Dude. Didn't you watch the Security Panel from FF? Sreegs literally talked about this whole thing. Or maybe it was the economy panel. Either way, it was talked about.

Now that Sreegs on onboard with this, I trust that he will do the right thing. I'm p. sure the guy isn't going to play favorites or anything, either, as some people in this thread have accused him of doing.

This guy does this for a living. He hunts down botters and RMTers and everything to put food on the table for his kids (if he has them). He's not going to risk his job by only going after certain groups.


I have said bad things about the guy before to stir up the tinfoil crowd, but my true opinion of his is that he is 110% legit. GO GO Team Security

Goons have an 'accountant' that looks over the books and post a spreadsheet so the line members can see if any directors are goonfucking.

Most big alliances does not do this, because unlike the goon management, they are corrupt bastards stealing the tax $$$

Yes, he spends quite sometime to prepare it.

The most interesting parts are of course the tech income, fuel for the JB etc BUT the biggie is the reimbursements.

I'm told our dictors/hictors tend to top the list in terms of how much they get reimbursed. So the next time you lock a hictor that's bubbled your titan, they're expecting to get blown up, but they hope you blow up too. (Because they get on killmails, I think their isk efficiency is amazing).

If Sreeg is coming out of Goons. Maybe now he does not favor anyone, but i can hardly believe he did not warn anyone before he placed his system up and thus favoring some people who will never lose what RMT they had time to do..... . Twisted

He has warned everyone several times through these forums and Devblogs over the last year that they will be stepping up on these types of bannings, both Bots and RMT. If people doesn't listen to him that's their problem.

CCP Sreegs said at fanfest, that appeals had so far only identified One false positive.


Which is incorrect, but then, their logs show nothing anyway.

Edit: as in, given that the defendants have no way to prove they were not botting, nor they can talk about their case on the forums (which would just raise general banter and laughter anyway) there will be little to none cases of reversed bans. They could not prove they did not cheat to begin with.

I see this statement thrown around alot but i fail to see how it proves goons immunity to corruption ?

just as a quick example they must do 1,000's of ship replacements weekly ? monthly ? wouldn't be to hard for the reimburstment guy to send 50mil to he's alt in alliance everytime and i highly doubt someone checks every loss to isk payout

I don't no maybe your right maybe goons leadership is just to busy encouraging ice miners to commit sucide to steal money i mean hey if i was encouraging people to do that i would never ever steal money from my anyone it would just be morally wrong



You know i would also guess CCP doesn't really care to much about the politics of banning RMT / Botters and just wants to make their game better and lets face it they lose actual real money to RMT / botters so it benefits them more from a buisness stand point.

Really? And what is that big bad meanie CCP gonna do? They already ban people for no reason, so I might as well give them one.

O and if it gets me to a quicker solution with my bank, charging back these fraudulent bastards after their bullshit will not only be justified, but feel good.

So how much ISK did CCP remove from your characters in game?

alright let's weigh the evidence

evidence supporting goonswarm being clean: transparent finances, we didn't get owned by CCP

evidence supporting pubbies' claims of us RMTing: *crickets chirp*

If you think you can answer for what someone besides yourself did outside of the game you are a truly gullible person and are not qualified to speak on this.

Seriously, not sarcastic at all.

John Gacy was a "pillar of the community" for a frame of reference.

There was no evidence in the Enron case until it went poof in the night. My point is, accounting oversight has about the same credibility as a Goon himself.

Incorrectly spelt.

If you are going to pick on someone's spelling and grammar to try and hoist them you really should make some effort to get it right yourself.

Spelt is English, spelled is from that mangled version of English known as American, ie, not English at all.
