There is the possibility that the OP did not actually buy any ISK, but is just trying to get someone banned by claiming to have bought ISK.

Perhaps this thread get a lock for discussing RMT, and rumor mongering?

I think the simple expression everyone is looking for is: "D'oh!"

To buck the popular trend, I began to Rage Start instead of Rage Quit.

...and every time I get another piece of Carbon, I know exactly what CCP is getting this Christmas.

I don't plan to use the isk. CCP are free to do what they want with it. Just odd that they choose to do nothing.
CCP IS free...not are....CCP is ONE corporation, not two or more. Two or more - plural. One - singular. We may be dumb in some parts, but we do know subject/verb agreement.

That being said. This is really flakey. Like the guy said, you break the rules then rat on someone for breaking the rules. What saintly deed was done here? What's odder is you come in here and tell the world about it. Now, the world has this indelible impression that YOU left it...not they/or them. World is singular. There may be a lot of people ON It, but there still is only one.

You wouldn't say "The World ARE..." stop saying CCP ARE....geez.

There just isn't anything that can be said!

The answer to this is simple. CCP do not try and ban individual ISK sellers. They monitor them over a period of time to try and identify all the associated accounts and possibly the IP address ranges the accounts use and then blanket ban all of them. This can take quite a while to do, but it does not mean that CCP have ignored your report.

Sigh. If you eliminate the problem, there's no need for a solution. Ergo, the isk seller is owned by CCP who is compiling a list of isk buyers to ban.

Why? Because if you ban all the isk-buyers then isk-selling is no longer a problem that needs to be solved.


Personally, I think it would be more efficient to just get rid of isk from the game. Go with a gold tritanium standard instead.

Yes that will fix it.

That would not work, you can see your own transactions logs, CCP can see them all and follow the isk flow.
CCP will investigate. they can see if and how many isk have been transfered.

There is more chance the Op bought is with the intent of using it, mentioned it to a corpie or some one else close, who informed the Op of the risk of a CCP induced biomass, thus prompting the Op to "out" the isk seller to CCP and then attempt to gain favour in the court of public opinion.

because there's little point in CCP banning the "bag man" and alerting the person behind it by eliminating one of his disposable mules. They want to investigate the whole supply chain, and the forensics of that take some time.

Anyway, good job on breaking the EULA and then tipping off your supplier that CCP are investigating him. No, really: top marks.


It's not a "bag man". The character is nearly 10 years old and has been involved with many corps and a major alliance. It's a main character.


I wouldn't be surprised if some of the alliances harbor RMT'ers. Or perhaps they lease out their space to RMT'ers.

I've never really gotten into the whole 0.0 alliance politics, but as I understand that use to be a big thing. Alliance renting out space, or harboring RMT'ers.

This can be done. Just set up an alt corp called 'Darwin Award' create some shares then send a share to whoever you like. Someone sent a load of us on the MD forums H3rp3s shares years ago (I still have mine lol).

It's far from unique to "alliances". Indeed, hi-sec is a much better place to obfuscate RMT dealings, due to the volume and complexity of trade. And the availability of NPC stations to facilitate them between 'strangers'.

I bought a quantity of isk from a fairly large isk seller about a month ago. I reported the seller straight to CCP. I had a reply from the security team about it and now we're almost a month later and that isk seller is not only still selling isk, but he hasn't even been banned because his character that delivered the isk is still logging in and making more deliveries.

He has sold another 100+ bill of isk at least since CCP got the report. All seems very odd.

They didn't even take the isk I purchased away from me.


best thing you could do is just keep buying isk from this person and run your real LEGAL isk doubling @ jita lokal, thus would clean up your reputation
