Our Team Security is ever watchful, hunting down illegal activity in and around EVE Online.

CCP Sreeg describes in his newest blog some of the ongoing operations and their impact on illegal activity like RMT. Since he knows that we all are curious people, hungry for numbers and statistics, he also included exactly this: numbers and statistics of seized isk and assets and more.

Please read CCP Sreeg's newest devblog here.

RMT tears best tears. Looking forward to some to drink from soon. Can I get a virtual hug anyway?

In terms of getting the message out to new and existing players, why not use the ingame billboards and the captain's quarters screen to run numbers/tickers of reclaimed assets/ISK and banned players etc


oh and great work guys

Very nice! This is good to see.

However I am still wondering if you have any actions planned for spammers and the likes that are, many that are most likely a funding for RMT as well I'm sure.

Spam is a problem! It keeps cluttering up channels and some are very easy and obvious, day old alts. I personally report bots every day but some still keep spamming weeks in. Will there be a team/plan to instantly ban spammers sometime too?

imo some are so obvious it doesn't need any investigation - just an instant hammer.

Keep up the great work, hope to see the next update you give with even more RMT/botters/spammers gone.

Seem like the 3 strikes and you're out strategy is really paying off. Hard core offenders are starting to finally reach the end of their "grace" period, but I'm sure many more stop after the first temp. ban.

ISK reversals and asset confiscation are probably at least as effective as the bans themselves.

Thanks for keeping us somewhat in the loop.

Suggestion...

Have updates or warnings for the new players via the TV in the Captain's Quarters or even on the odd billboards floating around space by the jumpgates?

Kinda like those annoying drug control ads on TV lol

"I.e xxx amount of RMTers banned since xxxx date - Crime doesn't pay!" or some other equally corny phrase.

I doubt they want to "break immersion" that way. Not saying a clever way to do it couldn't be found, but they probably want to keep most of those messages in something like the launcher or EVE Gate rather than in the game world itself.

Hey can you give us an updated count of false positives?

At fanfest sreegs said it was only 1 false positive.

I know for a fact that it's at least 15 now, and maybe as high as 50.

If you want an effective log in banner for newbies to see just show a wallet with -100 000 000.00 ISK and say "THIS COULD BE YOU!"

That would scare the crap out of me!
