In practice, they could add a script that runs during the transfer process that checks for assets (other than rookie ships), unfinished contracts, and a wallet balance greater than some minimal amount (say 5 - 10 million ISK). If either of those flags is tripped, the transfer fails, and the onus is on the seller to correct the problem in a timely fashion.


Yeah, but that seems like way more effort than is justified by the issue


In the long run, automation just about always leads to less effort in repeated tasks than the initial effort of automating them.

De'Veldrin's Corollary (to Malcanis' Law): Any idea that seeks to limit the ability of a large nullsec bloc to do something in the name of allowing more small groups into sov null will inevitably make it that much harder for small groups to enter sov null.

You messed up the sale of your assets.

You messed up on the Bazaar rules.

You just messed up on the forum rules.


I assume you messed up in good faith, but...

...you messed up.


No use whining about it now. Smile

Make space glamorous! Is EVE dying or not? Ask the EVE-O Death-o-meter!

I'd like to thank the CCP GM's for opening the door to character sales scams. I will make certain to note every minor mistake in a sale post and use it as justification for either keeping what I find or having the sale invalidated or both.


I expect this scenario will result in a more draconian interpretation of that rule being amended in. It's happened in the past when someone found a loophole. CCP does not like loopholes in the rules regarding character trades because they involve real money, real credit card companies, and real lawyers.

it dosn't allow you to initaite a transfer if your character is still training a skill...
why can't it not allow you to transfer if you have open contracts/market orders?....
