Hey OP, you're asking for an unenforceable rule. It's like the "no running" rule in elementary school.

Actually I don't think it is unenforceable at all.

Here's the logic.

Disregarding what can currently occur under the EULA add this one simple line...

>>> Alliance/corp is fined for EVERY bot detected, escalating on subsequent offenses.

The justification for this is where an alliance/corp has ASSUMED RESPONSIBILITY or PROVIDED A HAVEN for bots then they must also be HELD ACCOUNTABLE for bots.

Either the alliance gets VERY proactive against bots or it's going to hurt.

..oo00oo..

btw: You Goon guys have been very active in this thread and I really do appreciate you dropping by. If you're doing anything, your're proving Mittani's sheep theory. Keep up the good work. Post stays high on the list too. Win/Win


Gonna put my bots in hostile alliances just to get reported before they catch me.

Though that's not as good as getting the whole alliance banned like you originally suggested.

It's a BRILLIANT idea.....

All large alliances broken from within.
Recruting now done properly making it less of a numbers game.
Bots stopped.

What more could I ask for? Yes indeed. Bring it on.

I love how people can turn the simple message of don't use "I thought they were a bot" as an excuse to kill felllow alliance mates to

"ZOMFG GOONS THEY ADMIT TO BOTTING ZOMG MUST RAGE ON FORUM AND NOT READ ANY POSTS PAST PAGE 1"

Goons have a very solid alliance rules, grow up serious when adults start acting like 12 year old with reading problems?

*note* I'm not having a go at 12 year old or anyone with reading problems. Some people love to remove things from context so here is a joke.

A first-grade teacher, Ms Brooks, was having trouble with one of her students. The teacher asked, 'Harry, what's your problem?'

Harry answered, 'I'm too smart for the 1st grade. My sister is in the 3rd grade and I'm smarter than she is! I think I should be in the 3rd grade too!'

Ms. Brooks had had enough. She took Harry to the principal's office.

While Harry waited in the outer office, the teacher explained to the principal what the situation was. The principal told Ms. Brooks he would give the boy a test. If he failed to answer any of his questions he was to go back to the 1st grade and behave. She agreed.

Harry was brought in and the conditions were explained to him and he agreed to take the test.

Principal:
'What is 3 x 3?'

Harry:
'9.'

Principal:
'What is 6 x 6?'

Harry:
'36.'

And so it went with every question the principal thought a 3rd grader should know.

The principal looks at Ms. Brooks and tells her, 'I think Harry can go to the 3rd grade'

Ms. Brooks says to the principal, 'Let me ask him some questions..'

The principal and Harry both agreed.

Ms. Brooks asks, 'What does a cow have four of that I have only two of?'

Harry, after a moment: 'Legs.'

Ms. Brooks: 'What is in your pants that you have but I do not have?'

The principal wondered why would she ask such a question!

Harry replied: 'Pockets.'

Ms. Brooks: 'What does a dog do that a man steps into?'

Harry: 'Pants.'

The principal sat forward with his mouth hanging open.

Ms. Brooks: 'What goes in hard and pink then comes out soft and sticky?'

The principal's eyes opened really wide and before he could stop the answer, Harry replied, 'Bubble gum.'

Ms. Brooks: 'What does a man do standing up, a woman does sitting down and a dog does on three legs?'

Harry: 'Shake hands .'

The principal was trembling.

Ms. Brooks: 'What word starts with an 'F' and ends in 'K' that means a lot of heat and excitement?'

Harry:
'Firetruck.'

The principal breathed a sigh of relief and told the
teacher, 'Put Harry in the fifth-grade, I got the last seven questions wrong.

Something about all this seems very farmiliar. Something about a large group getting called out for cheating/exploiting/whatever. Some DEV favoritism thrown around in there too a little I see. Funny how the ones on the block now are the ones that cried foul way back then. I think I`m going to go look up that old Outbreak video, Karma i believe its name was.

You're like the Eve equivalent of an arsenist - you just want to watch other people's creations burn while you observe and **** yourself in the corner.

This is Eve. You're complaining about things in nullsec being a numbers game? Of course they are. Biggest most powerful team wins. Don't like it? Make friends until you have a bigger team. Or quit and play a game with instancing and limited party raids.

The goons are New Eden's id. They embody they impulsive, limitless fun that there is to be had in the game, whether it comes at others' expense or not. They pride themselves on pushing sandbox and metagaming to its limit. But that's pretty much what separates Eve from other games, the fact that they can do it and get away with it . This should not be news to you, or offend you.

I'm not really into the goons either - that's not my type of fun. But I will certainly defend their right to have it that way.
