Well to be honest start over.

Shut down that account and start over with a fresh account.
You can always reactivate it later on when you have enough ISK to bail it out.

I have to presume you haven't been playing the game very long and therefore your SP loss will be small.
And for a quick legal bail out.
Buy a PLEX from CCP and sell it on the market in Jita.

He can't sell it on the market in Jita- negative balance means can't pay tax or broker's fees of the 7-8 mill it requires.

He bought plex. As said earlier in the thread, add your alt as a contact. Open your peoples & places and select your contact, (right click) send the isk. Alternatively, you can simply search for your character with the alt, then right click send isk (make sure it's really your main, not someone with a similar name).

You'll have to take the price hit for selling with an alt with no standings, but it's not that bad.

Post Removed - CCP Falcon


Over the past year I have increasingly noticed websites trying to exploit confusion regarding GTCs and PLEX by selling PLEX for $ as supposedly "legal" RMT (along with carefully selected CCP quotes).

I wish CCP had never started selling PLEX directly...

"Buying ISK is bad but you can legally buy ISK from other players by selling PLEX on the market. You should only buy PLEX from eveonline.com as buying PLEX from any other website is very bad, however, you can buy GTCs and convert these into PLEX from just about any website you run across" is just a terrible mess of a message that creates easy prey for RMT sites.

"You must not buy PLEX or ISK for $, the only legal RMT is via GTCs" would be so much clearer...

I guess you missed the bit where I said start a new account.
Can you still trade with a negative account ?
If not, oh well guess they are starting from scratch.

talk about owned

create a new character, buy a GTC, use timecode transfers to sell it to somebody on these forums and send the ISK to your negwalleted character

simple as

Dear Friend,

I am Pak Narhoo, an account manager in China Central Bank, a licensed bank incorporated in China Asia.
I am getting in touch with you regarding a customer in my bank who died here in Asia, without a next of kin
and an investment worth millions of dollars placed in our bank some years ago, and I happened to be his
accounts officer.

Kindly get back to me if you are interested in partnering with me on this project.

Sincerely,

Pak Narhoo

Ps: I'm perfectly legal.

This is rather funny if true, and bodes well for the Jita scammers if this is the new breed of players...

You should only buy isk with stolen credit cards.

You get a free rookie ship at every base. Fit it with a mining laser and start mining.

Pretty soon you will have that 80 million.

Since you checked that it was "legal" then you knew damn well it wasn't.

amiright?

So my main is stuck with a negative isk balance of 88mill,iam not able to use markets,accept contracts- iam dead in the water.

So like people adviced i bough some plex and sold it for isk,when creating a private contract to 'dontate' the isk to my main character i cant accept the contract because my balance needs to be 0.00 isk...

what am i supposed to do ?I


easiest way use your alt and transfer isk from the toon that bought the plexes to your main that is at a negative balance.

Make an alt, transfer them the plex in hanger, sell it, have alt send you the isk, and don't do it again.

If you don't have a hangar, anchored and password protected secure containers work, as does a jetcan transfer at a safespot.
