It must be the constant beating's by BoB that tipped them over the edge.


ban the only people who seem to notice glaring issues in the game, game will be better if nobody points out things that need fixing.

like the logic.


Then the bankers who scam millions of people out of billions of dollars should be kept around because they help point out the flaws in the financial system.


sigh, too easy that it's not even worth the effort any more.

Hi, allow me to correct you on this aspect: assets were taken.

So, so far they have gotten off really lightly considering they broke multiple rules with a ban and permanent ban punishments.

They've been punished more than those who used game mechanics equally as creatively, like insurance fraud, refining POS bits into PI components, refined PA into nocx, used tracking titans to take over whole regions etc.

But by all means, let's call the exploitation of a programming bug exactly the same thing as creative usage of a game mechanic.

being a goon doesn't get you banned hth

Well this will show that tbh. If Goonswarm members break this many rules with banable punishment and then don't get banned will at least make the rumor rule invalid.

Any spelling, grammatical and punctuation errors are because frankly, I don't care!!

your argument proves my point more or less. scams are fine in the game, hence too easy.

But scams are the use of various game mechanics to gain an unfair advantage over others. You might be banned! :ohdear:

Too many calls for too many banhammers. This is from people who claim to be "fair".
I wrote this in another thread - Allow CCP to judge without emotion. My opinion, worthless as it is, is that the guilty party wallets be drained to the day just before FW was implemented, nothing more, nothing less. Bleating for bans in this case is just emotional hatred and childish.

I was told there was a strip club in here. After reading the OP it appears I was grossly misinformed...

Obvious duping is obvious duping even when it takes two steps, duping is instant ban.

The fact CCP didn't do this already means they blinked.

So PA making nocx without anyone getting banned means CCP blinked?
So POSes being refined making PI without anyone getting banned means CCP blinked?
So insurance frauding making isk without anyone getting banned means CCP blinked?

I had a bowel movement this morning.

Trust me, that's more important than this sophomoric soap opera.

WHAT WILL THIS DEVBLOG MEAN TO YOU!


It will mean that all the players calling for bans will be very upset.

I assume that CCP are professional enough to admit that they made the mistake which led to where we are now.
