There is no excuse for RMTing, it should carry a lifetime ban on all accounts owned by the RMTer if they're caught.

so everyone who ever bought a PLEX in CCP store and then sold it for ISK should be banned? i bet it's quite easy to catch lots of them too.



No because the people that are buying the PLEX from CCP are not making a profit from the game, CCP make the profit as it should be, it's their game.

longs for the day PL will grow a pair and oust their russian rmt overlords....

hell they could even rent out the dronelands themselves and make silent dodger have to sell his car.

Everytime you buy something that says "made in china" you are helping the rising unemployment in your own country unless you are from china, Buy locally produced goods and help create more jobs.

sure but it's still RMT, although a legit one.

I think there should be different term for that, like "Illegal RMT" instead of just RMT, or something.

In fact I agree the illegal RMT needs to be brought down since it means those people don't sell PLEX, which means PLEX prices are higher than they should be which means less people can afford to play for free :)

Yawn.. Good for him I say.. Who here wouldn't do the same as him if you were in a financial trouble? I sure as hell would.

He should be banned but tbh I'm pretty sure he expects that so it doesn't matter. **** happens guys, I hope you all realise that his IRL existence is much more important than our "fragile" EVE-economy.. lawl.

We should all hope and pray his mother dies, and then we can laugh about it to his face.

Anyone have a picture of his mother? I would like to put my photoshop to the test.

I dont think either side is more innocent that the other so , it really doesnt matter who you kick out, just saying. also most of the botters would simply swap to the winning side regardless.

of course CCP RMT. They trade their product for real money. lol



As for the OP. Cool story. If true then well done to that man for admitting it, but he'd only admit it if he never intended to play again, so why not?

Essentially this story just shows up CCP's security team for their inability to be... well... secure. Although I'm sure they would "respectfully disagree"

They'll never make a statement regarding this incident. It falls under the same rules as discussing forum moderation, it doesn't happen.

Silence is as much a response as anything. What you'll get, eventually, is the usual in a unsolicited dev blog from Sreegs about vaguely general efforts to combat RMT/Botting. It's all just lip service with no credibility these days. Yeah yeah, we hear ya Sreegs, you're working on it. And yet the largest of alliances are steeped in RMT which is, of course, why they're the largest alliances because they have actual money backing their business ventures in null.

I mean, if they're not going to fight RMT with any efficacy, why not just implement it as a game mechanic, remove botting as a EULA violation and let everyone do it? RMT is rampant in Eve. So what more harm would it do to the game that it is not already doing? The only reason against that I can see, with any plausibility, is CCP wants to protect certain RMT shops and that can only mean that CCP or someone high in CCP's management is making profit from it.

Don't ban me, bro!
