It's a shame that people will capitalize on everything, even the tragic and senseless killing of a great man.

I wonder if this is bannable. Probably not. It's distasteful, but not actually scamming related to a CCP-organised charity drive.

It is. It breaks EULA §2b about impersonation and false representation.

He's not actually impersonating anyone. That's like saying if you name a character "Jita ISK Doubler" it's a EULA breach if you don't actually double peoples isk.

There a difference between scamming someone out of a carrier and scamming people who think they a donating to a murdered mans wife and children.

Goons have never and will never scam a plex for charity for a RL incident.

Link please?

Or is this an "everybody knows" that doesn't rely on mere facts?

Yes, please ban and then nuke this thread. I was impressed by how well the community was handling this, then some idiot does something like this. Show some damn respect! We're all real people behind these characters.

It better not be bannable. Considering how many people VR scammed or helped scam, THIS is exactly what he deserves.



Have some respect....

You're reaching.

The EULA states:

Quote:
No player may use the character name of another player to impersonate or falsely represent his or her identity.


IF CCP wants to stop the Vile Rat Foundation from collecting "donations", which appears to be well within the rules of the sandbox, they'll have to use a lesser known and more obscure rule to do so as the EULA reference you made has no bearing here.
