CCP cannot and never will be able to divine how you have payed for in-game items out of game. Whether it be dollars, euros, dinars, marks, yen or bit coin. Lawn cutting, cases of beer, handy work or whatever. The reason people get ISK taken away from them when they buy ISK from websites is because those sites deal with so many people from all over the game that it is easy for CCP to track the ISK on their side and see who is acting like an RMT bank.

How large alliances would get away with RMT is because as a group you are already attached to the ISK that the alliance has through the social order that you belong. Now if those alliances started selling outside their group to wide swathes of the playerbase then just like all other RMT operations they would be shut down and the ISK taken away.

Do not seek to follow in the footsteps of the wise. Seek what they sought.

Trading 1's and 0's isn't against the law because it's not something tangible rather it is an ideal of something no?

So say if I have very valuable information on a corp, that another corp seeks and I wish to sell it to them for isk and that document was created with the notes we have as part of the game then is that wrong?


Of course it's not illegal. The EULA is not about limiting what you can do but about enabling CCP to take action.

Through the EULA you give CCP permission to terminate your account at will. Breaking their rules won't get your hauled off to prison but likewise you can't take legal action against them when they ban you.

The very sun of heaven seemed distorted when viewed through the polarising miasma welling out from this sea-soaked perversion, and twisted menace and suspense lurked leeringly in those crazily elusive angles of carven rock where a second glance shewed concavity after the first shewed convexity.
