How hard would it be to make the eve client recognize a text file with a name per line which the eve client then exact name searches and blocks? Name on list = block and name off list = unblock.

The end of massive scamming as we know it.

What do you guys think?

I think... that professional scammers just kill their blocked alts, create new ones and your back to square one.

That's why lists are updated. This is precisely the reason why blocking every new alt manually won't work, but blocking out all new alts with a click will. +1

And those names magically appeared on the list..... amirite?

Nah mate... they have to be manually added/reported. There is no difference between manually blocking these guys and manually adding each new toon to a list, you will still have to manually do each new toon that pops up.

I have a better solution. Stop buying stuff out of local channels when you run into market hubs.

Read what your getting in contracts before accepting them.

Problem solved.
