By converting isk to $ you have just committed RMT..

At no point does Somerblink which thread is aimed at, covert RL Money to Isk or isk to RL Money

They give blink credits in turn for you using their referral scheme.

Now some people will say you can use that credit to guarantee a win and then converting that to isk by blinking on all slots on a ship, however that isn't as easy as it sounds as chances are somebody will place a blink on that ship so your chance of success whilst high isn't 100%.

So you still need a method of attracting people to your site and to use your referral service without offering them isk.

Like the example I gave, on a lottery site you would give x number of tickets in return.

So those using your referral might have a higher chance of winning said lottery due to them having more tickets. but it isn't 100% guaranteed.

Bull!
Credits are as good as isk. Not to mention they can only offer "credit" by having the isk to back it up.
Also 80% of the credit WILL be able to be converted into isk. It may not be by the buyer, but 80% of the credit value will en up as winnings.
What you have here is a technicality they are using the launder isk into cash, nothing more.
To do the same, the only thing you'd need to do is offer "tickets" not isk, then allow you to buy a whole lottery for 100% of the winnings. Slapping the word "game" on it would make it as valid as Somer.



Whether its a technicality is irrelevant. The fact is there is no guarantee that isk that is given as credit will results in a winning a prize and then converted to isk.

I know because I play Somerblink. You have said many times yourself you do not.

80% of the credit will turn into ISK which can be redeemed in game spend on more tickets. FACT. That's RMT.
Just because you might do it badly and have it end up as someone else's isk doesn't change that its isk being given away for cash.

I think I now have found an expansion to make on my website.

myEVElotto will permit you to sell your characters and/or assets through our system. To purchase tickets for your character/asset lottery, one can send money via PayPal to a designated account. The system then selects a random winner (from those who purchased MELtickets) and that person wins the prize.

If you need a lottery front to legitimize your RMT CCP-authorized character lottery, please contact myEVElotto for pricing and terms. We will act as the "third party" that every legit CCP-authorized RMT scheme lottery requires.

At the rate my Paypal account is growing; I won't need CCP to give me trips to Iceland to BLack Blink off I can pay for it myself and then give it away .

They should be excited cause GTC sales for them will go thru the roof and the didn't have to pay for the trip. Winning

Besides, corporate espionage is what makes the world go 'round. How could you possibly object to it?

Lottery style sales are not permitted. Auctions and buyouts are the appropriate method for selling a character.

He is selling GTCs, I'm sure when he said he would sell his character through the bazaar it would be done properly.

For instance, I can sell my character for 1 isk. I can also choose who pays me for it.

Once again that is a forum rule, you might try posting the relevant EULA section on character transfers.

Any spelling, grammatical and punctuation errors are because frankly, I don't care!!

These are all grey areas now. Also if you look at the title of this post; Iam looking for a third party GTC seller backing. I am sure we will find the grey area in the word raffle together.

Greetings,

Any form of ETC trading outside of the CCP created system is not permitted or supported by CCP. We are currently investigating if the sort of ETC resale (resale by an unauthorized reseller) is permitted. We appreciate your patience while we investigate this matter.

o/ Dolan

I'm curious, does this mean his scheme is acceptable so long as the ETC goes through a reseller? and how do affiliate sales fit into this? and what of the issue of offering 'bonus credits', I noticed you didn't address that at all? We would greatly appreciate some clarification.

Thanks!

Translation to CCP Response---

Everyone,

Please stop being so intelligent as to find loopholes in our rules. Why can't you all just be good little gamers like the guys over at WOW....just play the game quietly, and stop making trouble. Please understand.....only WE can do as we please...as we are the rule makers/breakers.

Pretty close yes.

In essence it doesn't matter what loophole you think you've found, if CCP doesn't like it (and they won't) they can close it at any time... and if you're making personal income from the selling of their intellectual property (GTC's, characters, or raffles to achieve the same end) I'd say it's probably a good thing you were planning to be gone anyway.
