Whoever that GM was should be fired.

Irony: It was the Senior GM.

guess i'll be asking for my petitions to be demoted rather than escalated now so i might get a response that makes sense

I'm sure whoever you scam will make sure this particular gm gets to ban you

Next in line: change definition of butterfly effect - "that happy feeling you get inside after having a butterfly alight upon your finger"

Seems more suitable for the direction GMs have laid out for eve since yesterday.

also since apparently these rules have been in effect for 1.5 years minimum should we start retroactively petitioning everything that has happened now? i expect 3/4 of eve banned by tomorrow.

Standings between entities are usually not taken into consideration, as those are being used in wildly differentiating contexts. Generally speaking, if you're claiming to act on behalf of a player run in-game entity, you should be a member of said entity.

So as CFC, N3, Proviblock, New Order, Bombers Bar etc. are no in-game entities (they are not represented as entities within the game mechanics), there is no way to validate representation w.r.t those and thus there can be no rule violation, right?


or Chribba, which would seem to be the trigger for this.

I'm a trigger for this? That's news to me. What happened?


Priceless. Lol

This change is along the lines of removing every asteroid from the game.

Clarification is badly needed. Again...

We need one of those lawyer advertisements:

If YOU have been scammed, you may be able to recover items and isk lost by your stupidity due to the IMPERSONATION clause in the TOS. Petition today

Now that scamming has been eliminated, CCP will institute a new server called Trammel with no non consensual PvP unless you set a flag on your character. All hail CCP in their great wisdom.

yes, because it's never worth questioning conflicting information which if interpreted incorrectly could result in being banned.

this isn't a case of htfu, this is a case of some one needs to actually clarify something instead of posting an ambiguous copy paste response that conflicts with what has been published elsewhere.


Who cares!!!! Just go sit outside and take a beer! You should feel better after that.

We should probably stop using that word. It looks like CCP's English-to-GM:ese translation software has confused “clarification” with “vast senseless expansion”.

If a goon scammer claims to be The Mittani's alt then the real Mittani will generally be happy to confirm that claim via evemail (and gets a cut of the scam's proceeds in return).


This implies that two things are true:

1.) The Mittani has the time, energy, and desire to read and respond to every Eve Mail he's sent from Random Pubbie Citizen 284593 about some paltry change that was scammed out of them by one of the 10,500 members of GSF, and

2.) That The Mittani isn't already a Space Romney for whom 250m ISK is a pittance.

However, in the reality in which we currently reside, these two things could not be farther from the truth, and if you believe them then you're A Pretty Dumb Person.

"could not be farther from the truth" = the standard fee for the mittani to assist your scam is 1b and not 250m

who cares? people who'd rather not get banned for doing what they've always done.

i'm glad having a beer fixes everything in your little fantasy land, buddy.

Two days ago, exactly (to the minute!) 4 hours before the new ToS was announced I got an "Official Contact from CCP Customer Support" asking me politely not to claim to represent CONCORD. A second communication then told me not to claim to represent the SRB or CEP either as that could be against the EULA/TOS.


*boggle*

Dear CCP (and CSM): I would SO MUCH RATHER receive something like Ifly's letter than a corp application from someone claiming to be my CEO's IRL best friend that I can't find words to describe the gap.

Ifly's letter is immersive, cheeky and funny. Bringing RL into the game smacks of WoW, frankly, and makes EVE a lot gamier.

Please, please, please rethink this. It may be ~possible~ to scam people if this change sticks, but it will be much harder to do without pulling both yourself and your target out of the EVE universe. This is bad. If it was policy before the EULA change then it was bad policy, and any change to the EULA should reverse it.
