Spam?
I thought this was part of the new crime and punishment.

"Yea, I did six months in Jita. I don't shoot miners no more. I'm clean now"

But on a less serious note, I' sure 100 is about 5 times the accurate number. Considering how often I need to update my block list, I'm sure it's 20 guys rolling accounts.

Hey, I'm on the list. Edit: the bottom of the list though.
;D

I just spend too much time there. I also sometimes sell legit contracts in Jita. So I'm kind of guilty of spamming my contracts every few minutes. You can check my contract history to see that they aren't scams.

I might have to cut back on talking so much in Jita now...

I don't get it, one time in Rens I was trying to scam. I was reposting the same lines over and over every 4 min,not exactly but as close as possible. Somebody reported me for spamming, and I was 'gagged' for 10 mintues by a gm 'for spam'. I sent all of 5-6 messages at 4 min intervals and I was gagged. Why cant half that attention be shown to Jita?

That does seem a bit over the top. But I'd just say it's obviously easier to gag the 1 person spamming in Rens.

When everyone expects Jita to be full of spam, and it's been that way for ages. It'd be a bit odd for CCP to suddenly turn around now and start using the heavy hand on Jita spam.

Everytime I consistently see the same person spamming some scam contract no matter what time of day. I wonder to myself, if this person has no life that he does this or this is a bot doing it for him.

If CCP doesn't want to lose them, I think a week ban on their account would be sufficient to deter them now they know that CCP is on to their little trick. Or perhaps a confiscation of isk or goods they have gained by using illegitimate methods.

Of course there are people who use trial accounts, which in that case I would be in favor of limiting the amount of spam a trial account can post in public communication.

The OpEd answer is that CCP would never ban hammer a large percentage of their user base. Too much money to lose over a fairly minor irritant. Yeah, they might slam a few to "make a point" but not many.



Sure, you call 6200 paying accounts being banned a few?

Maybe you should stop posting without having some idea what you're posting about, no? Smile

In the scam capital of EvE it's business as usual. Shocked

Post with your main, like a BOSS!

And no, i don't live in highsec.  As if that would make your opinion any less wrong.

Maybe if you can't work out the difference between RMT having an impact on the coffers of CCP based on the PLEX alternative and Jita contract spammers then maybe you should disconnect your PC from the internet, bury it in a hole and cover it with quick dry cement, no?

Maybe you will stop posting for the common good as well, no?

CCP should follow guildwars2 example. Spammers and bots can't do anything in that game. I. Thanks Chribba for another excellent post.

The first question actually is not that at all. It would have to be is a macro that repeats a message in Jita once every minute or so a bot, or just a macro. Where's the line and is it bannable?
My input here regards bot/macro.

I agree that what we see in Jita, is most likely defined as macro, a software that is dumb, doing the same thing in intervals - eg post something.

I chose to call it bot though, as essentially there are ones that stop posting after a scamtract is claimed pointing towards some intelligence behind the software - eg bot. But as I see it, macro is just the same as a bot but not using all features. So I just decided to call it bot rather than macro but in the big picture it's pretty much the same imo, a bot is just as bad as a macro in this case.

Profit.

In-case someone realizes they got gagged unfairly, it is easily noticeable and correctable.

This is EXACTLY how I would like to see it, stealth gag, they won't know, they will be paying, we will have less spam. I can def see this be a very good solution.


So there is a little evil streak in you Chribba, I like that. Good for you :)
