I am a jita scammer whatever but last week or so I have had people abusing the game mechanics vs me.

1 person in jita which I blocked has been spam opening trade windows with me for days.


DO NOT post GM Correspondence on the EVE Online Forums - CCP Falcon


For future reference, you can drag the open trade request to the side, basically off the screen save for one pixel, and leave it there. This forces the spammer to cancel the trade request before sending another one. Unfortunately, the block system does not cover this, so we are limited in the assistance we can provide directly to you.


So I get locked down and gm's cant do jack...

GM's replied finally saying:

"At this stage we'll need to give some time for the full server logging to be available, so we won't be able to continue investigations immediately."

Oh noes. Maybe you should quit spamming jita, and go shoot things instead?

I don't see any abuse here this is a game mechanic not an exploit.
