Because based on what you are saying, they should. I paid money in hardware to be able to use multiple characters effectively, therefore I have an unfair advantage. It doesn't make sense.

Now, that being said, I ******* hate IS Boxer and those who use it. They keep ice and mineral prices low, which isn't good for someone in my line of work. It's a way of managing multiple characters without investing in the hardware. Therefore, I blow them up, consistently and without prejudice. You should try it.

But, because they also keep ship prices low, they keep ammo prices low, they keep module prices low, along with everything else I like to buy in this game, I secretly love them.

40 skiffs mining in an ice field in hi-sec, the belt lasts no more than 30 minutes if he is there. During this time I estimate he must get 40 ice per skiff, 40 skiffs. That's 1600 blocks of ice, at 320k per block that is 500 million isk that he earns from 30 minutes of play, in hi-sec.

Not only does he earn isk far faster than would be possible for him if he wasn't using a 3rd party program to send keystrokes to the clients, but he ruins the game for normal players. I would rather mine with a few bots in the belt than this guy, they are far less detrimental to my experience.


Got to say that this is a silly argument. CCP determines how the EULA applies. CCP has said that isoboxer is ok by them. You may disagree and you may internet lawyer all you want, but it makes no difference since its CCP's game. CPP wants to call a goat a sheep or say night is day and black is white, its totally up to them and no amount of internet lawyering is going to make a difference.

Now get a group of like minded people, bump all the barges off grid and gank them one by one. You keep doing that until all of the accounts go silent. Then you congratulate yourselves and look for another ISBoxing miner.

Don't forget to make a thread/blog about it.

Shouldn't CODE be active in this?

They would lose too much revenue.

So how do you explain the many accounts they shut down for breaking the EULA?

considering you're attributing finances as to why ccp aren't banning people who aren't doing anything wrong, tippia seems to lead a life of normality compared to your bizzaro ideas.

If you live in bizzarro (aka ignore all facts and evidence that don't fit into Dinsdale's worldview) world, objective reality and truth of course seem bizarre.

All a rather circumventory way of admitting they don't see a profit in banning someone paying $600-$800 a month.
So how do you explain them banning people who's paying five or ten times that?

It's not jealousy. It's frustrating to be outplayed by someone who is basicly cheating.

Where's the cheating? Or are you succumbing to that old “their fleet is ours +1, so they're a cheating unfair blob” mode of thinking?

So you can't account for it? Is that because it so violently blows a moon-sized hole in your unfounded and very silly assumption?
On the one hand, we have people with far more accounts than these simple multibox setups, who get banned by the bucketload for breaking the EULA. On the other hand we have people with a much lower number of accounts who don't get banned for the simple reason that they're not actually doing anything wrong. By your logic, the opposite should be true, and yet it isn't.

Maybe you should come up from the bizarro-wold rabbit hole you've thrown yourself into, because up here, what you claim is so far removed from any kind of rational thinking that we'd have to invent entire new units of measurement to even begin to calculate it.
