Just a thought, i didnt read to much about the blink shabang,

but my view is normally CCP gives away xmas gifts in redeem items so just make everyone happy and give every eve player a scorpion ishkune watch for Christmas, im sure it would stop the whole,. blink this blink that whineing.

we are already well aware that when you reprocess a ishkune watch scorp it gives 1 trit, so their pretty much worthless to sell.

Option B. If you wanna give trillions out, use a voteing system so the community can vote where it goes, * give players a choice*

yeah, crashing the market value of the item instead of addressing the actual underlying issues is exactly how this should be handled Roll

next time give out a different item and keep a lid on it

7 more days it will be a month since the CSM's response. I wonder how much more money Somer BLINK will have through RMT'd in that time?

Did the delaying tactic work?

Seems a lot of people have forgotten already

I still demand an apology from Hellmar and 6 months of subscriptions for everyone to prove he is sincere this time.

You know what kills threads like this?
Endless WOT's from over-thinkers breaking down Laws and crap rather staying on point.

Question: Is SomerBlink being shown favoritism by specifically being allowed to commit RMT?
Answer : (Comment)

The rest of it just becomes TL;DR battling and arguing of wits that nobody gives a toss about.

Answer: Hell yes. It's like a given in a geometry problem, there is no question about it.

The questions come from the why are they cracking down on copycaters, how could they allow it with one group and not allow it for ALL, you know stuff having to do with intregrity and honest dealings in a sandbox game and economy supposedly controlled by the players etc....

CCP is trolling us.

I don't think that's the case... there's not much to say about it atm... everyone knows the score and what's stank in game. I don't think the issue is going anywhere though. People are just watching.

Conspiracy theory
#1.

CCP is actually using Somer as a money laundering facility, to hide their fat profits from scamming their own clients....

#2

A CCP Dev owed someone money, so after reading the EULA, he found a way to exploit the rules and pay them in RMT.


Are people really arguing about integrity in a game that demands you have none? Oops

Gimme a break! They have been connected with schills and other cheating practices since their inception.

Do you believe they are in it only to enhance theplayer experience here and for only a meager reward for their work?!

omfg ... you must be so naive.

I don't care how it goes but I certainly hope all lotteries to do with EVE are controlled by CCP or don't exist just for the rightness of it .
