If they didn't, it would certainly hurt Somer's business, and therefore hurt CCP.

But im trying to sell 21k worth of gtc's ive done 1.6k so far. Think that might be good for CCP.


We shall see. Also, if you're having issues with time code sites, would it be possible to use Amazon? They give you 10% back on "Game Downloads Products", which should be comparable.

Not to mention that PLEX prices will drop hard due to the massive influx of new PLEXes that people would not have bought previously.

Thanks!

Katarina, are you still doing this?

If you can, log on plse. I've got some cash rewards saved up on a C/C I figure I'll liquidate with this. :)

I'm not sure they're expressly out to protect SOMER, and if this still pushes/entices PLEX sales CCP shouldn't have an issue with it on financial grounds. The only issue I could see is the direct transfer of ISK, but that could be solved with a silly and unnecessary conversion of KATARINABUX to ISK for PLEX in the future as SOMER currently employs. Also, if CCP hasn't gotten around to addressing the people asking for input by now (Katarina well in advance of posting the link, people interested in purchasing, Markee himself) they'll be showing up embarrassingly late to the game to cancel the rewards transfers.

On the site markeedragon i cant say how but my affilates orders went to a different account and he's trying to sort it. Because markeedragon thinks my offer could be against to TOS he does not want me to use his affilate system at this time. He has a email in with CCP to see if its ok to do business with me. Both things are going to take time to sort.

Is markeedragon the owner of Shattered Crystal? Or a second, separate site?

I wonder if the big alliances will get into this. I can imagine the goons being able to make quite a bit of legitimate RMT cash out of this.

Markee Dragon is a separate site. He actually founded Shattered Crystal, but lost it in a divorce.

But the Somer Blink affiliate code is still working?


yes


Just had a thought. Has anyone actually, you know, contacted Markee Dragon about this whole SOMER thing?

D'oh!

Guessing it would be somewhere along the lines of, "we just sell the GTC then send reference numbers and commission to SOMER, what ever they do with it is their business"

I contacted Shattered Crystal and received a reply from the Chief Operating Officer, Dennis Hutchinson.

As far as I can see he is doing nothing different than one of our previous affiliates, http://cogdev.net/blink/ . If there is anything he is doing wrong, please let me know.


Very interesting,

The scary thing is that these threads are not being locked. And the one time your thread was locked, it was for trolling, not RMT.

Just another happy customer posting. Bought 2 GTC's, received 1b.

Good service. You should actually fly your Ishukone Watch Scorpions, when you get them, in FW. Would be trolly fun Smile
