Web exploit is to gain an advantage and kill another player, Botting is to gain an advantage over well...not being at the keyboard which makes it impossible to kill another player. Have you heard of a Bot winning a KM? Besides, Bots get 3 strike = banning each time and the third one is perma ban, so its all the same regardless of how often you ***** about it.

Sad but true. Trying to push game mechanics is what the game is really about and sometimes you might cross the line even if you had good intentions. That is never the case for botting.

It really should be the other way around ... if CCP had any sense of fair game.

So apparently now if you kill someone by using this exploit theres a good chance you will get banned forever...
If you bot you get banned for 14 day and become unable to trade the character...

Now it might just be me, but I think botting should be punished just as "harshly" as exploiting... what do you guys think?



lol I laugh when I see the posts that say this is to give the GOONS RMTers a second chance & the peeps that ganked the goons JUMPFRIEGHTERS last night the permenant boot w/o a warning ex post facto

Confirmed. Not sure what it has to do with anything, though. An exploit is an exploit.

Yes, which is why it's a good thing we don't exploit with our Titans or abuse broken game mechanics to kill jump freighters!

Botting should be instant perma-ban imo. As for broken code, we have to deal with CCP's negative broken game mechanics everyday so if an advantages one comes around every so often, then jump on the bandwagon I say.

Oh, would CCP kindly ban every single faction police in this case. On a bad sec status toon of mine I have frequently undocked and clicked warp in hisec, only to be webbed by the faction police, rendering me in a near-permanent state of entering warp, unable to re-dock, move, cancel warp or actually warp for 30-40 seconds. All the time taking significant damage, luckily only ships such as the maelstrom/hyperion have been slow enough to catch, so have tanked them. Had other people report this too.


just to point out about these smug remarks, everytime this happened to me I petitioned it and god my stuffz back (4-5 times maybe?)

Except the selling of an account is not permitted, the original owner stays the owner. So anyone buying an account (from a player) should also be banned.
