CCP, is it ok to create like 100 trial accounts and control them with that multiboxing aid carebears use to fly multiple hulks concurrently and use them to bash a pos faster?

Things are only impossible until they are not.

Oh poor noob how are you going to run 100 trial accounts?

Love to know how you get more than 1 to run per windows install.

I didn't say I personally would run all of them.

Doesn't VMWare allow like dozens of Windows installs to run concurrently on a single machine?

Not that I think 100 noobships could bash a POS...

...but the licensing issue could be avoided, right?

Let me clarify.

Technical implications aside, is it ok to roll alts on trial accounts to bash a pos?

Last I checked, VMWare doesn't have the graphics capability/support to run the Eve client. Now, if someone managed to lay hands on the dev load simulator client...

It only breaks the EULA if they're in something other than noobships or industrials.

LOL Trial accounts can't fly industrials.

Edited because I'm nicer than that.

I'm sure there is some intentionally vague rules from CCP so they can punish those they don't like from doing this, without feeling the need to actually police it.

Sure, go bash a POS in 100 newbships.

It will only take you a few days. It takes long enough with 500 battleships.
