Can't tell if sarcastic or not. What's the catch man? Your post is TOO positive compared to the other threads.

Post with your NPC alt main and not your main main alt!

no sarcasm. My honestly earned trills are now worth more again. :D and more important: ccp stopped ruining its own business by banning large scale rmting with 3rd party gambling sites. Best decision in years

Yeah I'm stoked about the changes too. However, CCP should implement gambling into EVE. I would actually gamble instead of opting out of the rigged 3rd parties. The tax on gambling would be a good isk sink as well, and could be another way of drawing players into citadels.

This is a great change and it's about time.

Allowing players to rake in great festering mountains of ISK with absolutely no risk to their in-game assets was never a good thing. Especially these 'slot machines' & 'raffles' where we have only the casino's word that the game is 'fair'.

CCP could make a gambling API and "franchaise" it but they will not. This is the fallout from the cs:go case and CCP wants to stay on the save side.
BTW: wait till you see the effects. IWI and eve.bet have been great sponsors for ingame events and news sides.

Why? People chose to gamble and chose to keep their isk in even though this decision was quite obviously coming one way or the other. If you had a lot of isk with IWI then too bad.

Because ISK could be considered to have a real world value that would require them to be regulated. I don't think they want to jump through all the hoops it would take to run regulated gambling just to have an in game gambling system. It could be they could get away with some sort of token system where there's no way to extract or inject the tokens so it's a completely isolated system separate from isk/plex/cash, but then people wouldn't be winning isk so they wouldn't care.

Unless you're a lawyer who specialises in this area, you are just talking out your arse.

in fairness, CCP hasn't actually banned gambling for ISK.

They're only banning gambling for ISK though 'games of chance' on third party websites.

I could still 'gamble' in-game easily. eg: 1v1 @ the sun for ISK100m?

Getting paid out, on the other hand, requires a certain level of honesty from both parties.

Is it Ironic that your literal definition is the exact opposite of the actual definition in this case? Or am I being ironically ironic?

That may be technically correct, but it doesn't stop people from buying ISK for cash.

I want to see everyone involved with it banned.
its all a bit shabby. gambling, charities, rmt.
even the "INNOCENT" ones must of known about the rmt. Not to mentions the odd fact several invested huge amounts into assets and placing things under the protection of "charity" because ccp obviously wouldn't want pr backlash of removing a charity related thing as part of this.
Ban them all just on the grounds of bringing the game into disrepute!

Disrepute? It is about dystopian future where psychopathic demigods rule the cosmos! They slay millions of people like cattle every day!
What can be more disreputable? That they lie about something? Probably lie is every word they say, that is why honest, honorable man is worth his weight in PLEX, its so unusual. Everyone else resorts to normal trollin', griefin', scammin', stealin', and gamblin' stuff.

Why else EVE would be called real?

Disrepute is like second name for EVE Online.
