We all know about OTEC, and many people are bothered by the political practices of the organization. Every isk spent on OTEC isk is an isk given to the CFC, which they will use to make war on their own customers. It's a pretty good system actually.

My question is, would you be willing to pay more money for certified non-OTEC tech, and for items constructed from certified non-OTEC minerals?

Nope, as there is no way to guaranty the products purity.

Ironicly, it would probably be a Goon that would be the first to profit from the inevitable scam =)

Now, if the game was capable of tracking the manufacturing process, what parts were put together by who, and majority of minerals traced back to point of origin. I would avoid specific corp products if the price difference was acceptable.

IF there were a way to 100% guarentee CFC made 0 profit then yes... yes i would!

The sad reality is it would no doubtably be a scam and profits going straight to them. You mention tracking the process, unfortunatly everyone has alts, people buy and sell characters etc so it would never be 100% guarentee'd

How about adding an owner history to every unit of every item?

Whenever it is traded, sold, or stolen, the new owner can see all the previous owners.

Don't forget exploiting the rest of the world AND your own hypcritical systems, calling it freedome... jung chi duh go-se dway.

... but atleast, in EVE, we are able to simply "not care" about you.^^

Most of the non tyen-shung duh (and thus thinking) world has a problem with America, but that issue has no place here... as for CFC... as I said, they can be ignored... so Jeff, Larry, nice meeting you.^^

Most being a catch phrase for Shalua Ruii.

The rest of the non thinking world is smart enough to look at the country objectively and all the good things it has done along with the bad.

Would that be Jeff and Larry MK3?

Since Goonswarm Federation is in its 3rd time reforming or as we are calling it around the law offices, GoonSwarm MKIII.
