May I punch the abs to see how tough they are next time at fanfest ?

One thing you mentioned, that CCP is the ONLY legal seller of PLEX. I think this should be clarified, as there are many authorized sellers of Game Time Codes, that can be converted to PLEX. Or am I confused on this issue?? Shocked

It's been theorized but I don't think we'd use it in this application because in most cases the assets simply shouldn't exist so we're more focused on fixing the glitch in the economy by removing them.



I know what you mean. I was just hoping for another way to pull more isk out of the economy.

I was only referring to PLEX. I need to do more research into GTCs so what I say is buy PLEX.

Hi Sreegs,

It has been suggested I ask this here rather than in the thread I started in EVE General Discussion:-

With CCP now, effectively, declaring war on RMT and botting are you able to say what CCP's policy is regarding people who are seen to regularly cheat?

To elaborate, if you see the same people botting/RMTing and having their accounts banned only to start up new accounts to carry on their activities do CCP have any policy for banning people from the game?

I appreciate you may not be able to give an answer but I am curious as to whether you have a policy like this in place as an ultimate deterrent for cheaters.

PAN

PS, I am assuming that it's an EULA violation to give false/misleading personal information when setting up an account.

I mentioned the need to improve the ID/AUTH system in my Fanfest presentation and I think this partially speaks to that. We're also going to have to add some layers into what we're doing, but you are correct that this should be a consideration. :)

Sreegs, Hero of Eve online, Who woulda thought Blink

Just want to say thank you for all the hardwork yourself and your team have done to bring the pain to cheaters. I can't believe I am saying this to an (Ex)Goon, but thank you thank you thank you.

Keep up the good work fella's.

This was in the blog. Does this mean that other online retailers for PLEX, like Shattered Crystal and Battleclinic, are ILLEGAL sellers? I didn't think they were, but your post confuses me.

Can anyone clarify this for me please? Thanks!!

See the clarifications upthread. Shattered Crystal and Battleclinic sell Game Time Codes, not PLEX. Approved GTC resellers like them are fine.

They don't sell plex. I'd clarify but to be honest I know very little about those relationships.

Question, as per this topic: https://forums.eveonline.com/default.aspx?g=posts&t=91174

tl;dr: can you ransom botters (send a mail and hope they read it after you blow them up) under the premise that you won't report them or bother them again (but of course do both those things).

Basically, scamming them for ISK on false premise (legal in EVE), but the ISK is tainted (illegal and might get taken away)

I watched the presentation video from fanfest (wasn't able, alas, to make it...still have yet to go to one), and have read the blog, and this thread.

Mui impressive. It took long enough, but you're making up for it with the running start, and the shorter window they have, and all this other good stuff.

Fast, hard clap for you, CCP Sreegs, and all of your team and other devs who help out. Bravo. Encore, Encore.

i have already seen that security fanfest video and its nice to see ccp finaly does something against those cheaters.

ps i hope that none of the higher ups in ccp intercept this anti bot/rmt campaing because of loosing too many accoutns or so. in the end you may loose lots of accounts, but bots would destroy eve sooner or later completly

I'll have to get back to you on that. I believe it would be fine but it's a hypothetical. Bots get dinged for isk generated and we're not looking at passing that on unless it's going bad places.

Good stuff. You fixed any of the alt accounts that have been put into negative ISK due to alleged RMT, yet?

For reference; an alt is - believe it or not - not another person! :)
