There is no current open thread on the forums with regards to this issue.

*Snip* Please refrain from discussing forum moderation. ISD Ezwal.

No answer to the questions asked previously have been provided so this topic can very much be considered still open and relevant.

CCP have basically green-lighted (assuming clarification) Somer Blink to commence rmt activities again almost one year after the last debacle.

Since there is currently no open thread pertaining to this issue, and given somer blink make the claim their current plex offering is CCP approved, this post is fact, not speculative.

tl:dr CCP have again enpowered Somer Blink to milk the eve playerbase for their own real life finacial gain.

Does it affect my eve? Nope

Do i care other making this post? Nope

Impartial as i am, something seems amiss.

Really poor decision making from CCP letting their playerbase down once again.

Not true. They said to file a petition against Somer if you suspect foul play.

In before lock.

One of ours, ten of theirs.

Im not sure what all the facts are but it is not surprising that CCP doesn't enforce their own rules. They have a history of doing it. Tippia the space lawyer will soon be here to inform you how wrong your are though.

Are they doing anything differently now compared to the variant that got smacked down a year ago?

Yup, and at the same time other community service providers don't get to suckle on the same nectar.

I'm more often let down by other players causing my bottom expectations bar to go even lower. Might as well mail it to china to save some digging.

I fail to see any difference between voluntarily paying an amount of isk over the market value of an item for that item and just giving isk.
I'm sure RMTers everywhere would be happy to buy trit for a billion each if that makes it okay. Just perform an out of game service for them that gets them money and they'll give you a voucher to contract them trit for a billion, np.

Here's a thing.
Right now it looks like it's just somer claiming that this is all CCP approved. Apparently, The CSM is aware of it and talking to CCP about it.
