Incomplete account-wide permabans? Weird.

No, not me. Don't get excited, trolls.

Suppose an EVE player has more than one account. After all, many do.
And - suppose one (or more) of those accounts were permabanned 'with extreme prejudice'. But not all.

You know, the works, permaban CODE.-style. No reason stated for ban, snotty CCP form letters, no appeal/escalation allowed, further petitions closed without reply, not allowed to re-roll and play a new character, do not apply to enter the Alliance Tournament, EVER.


Is that 'punished' player still allowed to play on his/her remaining unbanned accounts?

I'd assume that if CCP was reasonably competent, they'd have banhammered ALL accounts of any humans who have
sat in a chat room/TS server with, been seen in the same system as, or had sex with either Erotica1 or Fighter Jets Guitarsolo.

But, clearly, CCP is not reasonably competent. We are, after all, talking about a company that deleted thousands of BOOT.INI files with a bad patch and bricked their paying customers across the globe. And Dust. Roll

There are quite a few confused supposedly 'account-wide banned' players who have only had some % of their accounts banned. Lol

Is it assumed that they are allowed to keep playing on their other accounts? After all, CCP's judgement is infallible, right?

Or are these players with surviving accounts required by CCP law to turn themselves in, admit their outlaw identity, and have their remaining accounts banned as well? Further, are they required to submit fingerprints and/or a DNA/blood/semen sample to CCP HQ in Iceland?

Inquiring minds want to know. There is semen in ample supply.

Some might say "petition it."
Not going to bother with a petition for three very good reasons,

A) No standing: I've never had sex with Fighter Jets or Ero1, and therefore have not had any accounts banned.

B) I'm more interested in forum responses, because these types of policy discussions (Did Ero1 cross the line or not?) are apparently more fun when made in the ever popular 'forum witchhunt / internet popularity contest' format.

C) While banned characters are free to petition if they like, their tickets on the subject are now apparently closed instantly - making a petition a pointless exercise when GMs won't even look at them...

CCP's true, butthurt, colors.

Because those who can't do themselves keep others from doing too.

Google "troll" and stop using it incorrectly. A "jerk" is still a jerk. A "crybaby" is still a crybaby. Learn your own lingo for god's sake, and stop copying twelve year-olds that "sound" cool. Troll. Geez.

As for the OP, this does raise an interesting problem internet wide. Banning the IP is supposed to be the solution. Changing internet providers the counter to it. Is CCP supposed to seriously set up an offensive to counterstrike all the possible counterstrikes? I'm sure you understood the futility of an actual ban before you posted, though.

Paradise is like where you are right now, only much, much better.

Who knows... well CCP does. CCP will never tell you why someone banned. The person being banned probably will not tell you the truth either. Maybe they banned the plexed accounts and left the paying ones alone... nobody knows except CCP and the players that were banned.

Dont lose sleep over it.

There were tears in OP yes, but it's only 95% clear where they're coming from so they don't taste quite right.

Under what premise, exactly?

Hyperbole doesn't really work here in this example, sorry.

Since this thread is not going anywhere good, I feel like it's a worthy place for an important PSA.

For those of you that don't already know, a Deadpool movie has just been confirmed for 2016. If you haven't seen the test footage, I suggest you see it.
