The FAQ's numbers are merely a baseline and do not support continuous polling of the API as you're doing it. If you're being denied then you're polling too often.
They're not a baseline, they're flat-out meaningless. Ugh

I increased the polling to once every fifteen seconds and still ran into polling errors on the fifth to seventh poll.

Hey Squizz,

For some reason our Alliance, Monkeys with Guns. is not included in your faction page. We've been in FW for over a year now though. Is there something we have to do to get included in that?

I have to do some creating guesswork to determine who's involved in Faction Warfare since the information isn't included in the API. At a glance, it seems only a couple of your corps are active enough to be marked as participating in Faction Warfare.

... roughly 5 minutes later ...

There, I made some tweaks. Now if any corp in an alliance is marked as involved in FW, all corps in that alliance will be marked as involved in FW. And now I see BNANA listed :)

Thanks for the heads up!

Squizz-

For some reason, I cannot get to the site. I was following the API terms of use but suspect my IP address was banned as others have told me that they can still get to the site. My IP address is xx.xx.48.33. If this is the case, can you tell my why I was banned?

Thanks,

Nevermind, must have been AT&T because now I can access the site. Doh!

Regular EVEWho user here too.

No doubt you've been asked before, but what potential is there for data from DUST to be included in the future?

If/When there is an API available for DUSTies I'll look into it. Until then I can't really give any sort of answer :/

First I want to say, thanks for doing a great work.

Would you mind sharing with us how you get the join and leave times? Or even make them appear together with the name etc. when using your lovely API?

Cheers.

I'm guessing you're referring to characters and when they join/leave a corp? You can get a characters join/leave time from the CharacterInfo API, EveWho doesn't provide this information since CCP already does. If this isn't what you were looking for ask again! :)

Hey,

I have a suggestion that I don't think should be too complicated to implement.

It would be really neat if you could take an entire corp or alliance and import all members into your address book. This is of course for when you need to add all your war targets on watch list.

The IGB Javascript API has support for adding characters to the address book: https://wiki.eveonline.com/en/wiki/IGB_Javascript_Methods#addContact_Method

Programatically it's probably just simply a matter of looping over all characters in the corp/alliance and calling the function. Unfortunately it seems like you can't actually edit who's on the watch list via the API, but quickly and automatically adding them to the address book is a large step on the way.

Similarly it could be nice to be able to remove all members from a corp/alliance (for when the war is over). But this is more for extra credit.

Recently the EveWho server has been randomly locking up and not responding to requests of any type. I believe I have identified the problem and fixed it up. We'll see! I'll keep everyone informed if the problem persists...

edit: problems persisted and I ended up creating a ticket with the host, they looked into it and replaced some RAM. Hopefully this takes care of these random lockups!

Any plans or ability to add Dust mercs to these lists?

Great service!

Could you add corp member history to the API? It would be very helpful!

EveWho has downloaded over 1.4 million portraits from the old avatar server. These portraits can be seen just by searching for your character and then click the hyperlink just under the main character image.

Currently in progress: EveWho is checking older characters to see if they don't have a new image, if they don't, and they do have an older image, the older image will be displayed instead.

I hope you enjoy this little addition. :)

Has EveWho lost any information recently? Pilots with corp history that was previously displayed on the site now have none and corps I know that have had significant movement in members are showing a distinct lack of joiners and leavers.

By recently, I mean maybe in the last week or two - can't be certain when I last checked it.

Glad it's not just me then! If an example is needed, you can use this character. There doesn't seem to be any corp history on EveWho but there's a dozen entries in the employment history tab in-game.
