EVE General Discussion

How can CCP know if Joe Blow sells his isk to some random person? They dont thus they cant enforce it or am I completely wrong about this? Do they have a camera recording everything every eve player is doing everyday? Do they have mind readers on staff? If they dont know its happening how can they enforce it?

I dont know how bots work im not that computer savy but I would think if they could locate these bots they would already be banned right then why are there so many still running. This just tells me they cant enforce this either.

I would report bots but I dont know if they are or are not. Same goes for RMT if I knew if someone bought or sold isk for RM then I would report it but I have no idea so what is one to do? Should I report everyone and hope one of those millions is actually a bot or RMtrader or just ignore it.



Curiosity killed the Cat

They check your books.

CCP has allowed a situation where they don't know who is in control of half of the accounts.
I know too many people in game who have dozens of accounts, most of which were given to them by players who quit the game. Since the accounts are paid for with plex, CCP has no way of knowing who is controlling them.

This makes it impossible to control rmt or anything else. Even if they ban an account or accounts, they have no way of knowing about other accounts that do not appear to be related.

Besides, I think CCP is desperate enough for money that they'll overlook a lot as long as they are getting income from it...

Your first statement is ok




Your second statement makes you the ultra bot-a-tor.
How can you not know how they work, not be computer expert but still be able to spot and declare: "then why are so many" -this your statement.



So:
-you're not computer expert
-you don't know how bots work
-you see many bots (read your own sentence: "then why are there so many still running"
-you'd like to report bots but don't know how to spot them

You're just letting yourself be manipulated by so many "bot" psychotic dudes always running their mouth with no evidence of whatever knowledge of what they're talking about.
They only "assume" because the target character didn't respond as they wish therefore is a bot.
Some players, knowing a lot about computers and bots (probably because they have their own) can spot those and actually match report/ban but you can ask yourself, should I say you should ask yourself first if those players are not just making clean place for their own bots.

We never had any CCP conformation about this but I'm sure despite smart wording here and there, numbers thrown right left the actual and single number I'd be interested to know for truth is how many of those by some mean at some point are actually alts of loud mouths about mining and bots. I'm sure CCP can know it despite requiring a lot of data and manwork to get the relationship in between random bot sub with paypal or another way so they think they can't just get caught.
I'd really like to see some of these loudmouths get banned for botting so I could publicly spit some nice trolling over their face.

You can troll on my face anytime!

Seems you don't know how bots work but then sometimes yes, how can I troll someone so serious?

Actually, there's several ways for CCP (Sreegs and Posse) to detect bots and RMT.

But they would be fools if they actually said anything about how.

They have hit hard, and they continue to create tears (find 'em, they are lovely).

But if you have any experience within infosec (and hacking/botting mmorpgs is related) you know that we don't do PR.

Actually, I'd like to see the videoblog of Guard trying to force Sreegs to do a dev blog ...

It might score high on youtube (fight section).

Because automation cant flag amounts and repetition for further human scrutiny.

Yep, MSSQL.

Please do, we don't hear enough from Team Security, or Team Avatar for that matter, since someone nerfed their promised dev blog
