With the recent increase in blatant and arrogant piracy of the TAINS insta-bookmark sets we have been forced to consider alternative methods of dealing with resellers.
For the purpose of encouraging USO to cease their sales of our insta-packs and reclaim economic damages that have been inflicted upon our corporation from these actions Finite Horizon has been contracted.
In 24 hours time Finite Horizon will be authorized by CONCORD to begin hostilities with the United Stars Organisation. Hostilities will continue until all of the terms we set are met. Terms shall be delivered by Finite Horizon to the CEO of USO privately.
This is the first in a series of blows that will be delivered against corporations and individuals that have decided that it is morally acceptable for them to resell the hard work of others and compromise the service industry for ourselves and other future enterprises.

So in other words in a blatent attempt to maintain a monopoly on something which is freely copyable, you're hiring pirates and griefers to harass another corperation?
WTB "pirate" set of TAI BM's, cheap.

You must have realized that someone was gonna sell copies of your bm's at reduced rate didn't you Then you decide to begin hostilites against USO, sounds like a bad case of you throwing your teddy in the corner
I hear you going on about how much time etc etc etc it takes to make bm's and other peeps have no rights to make copies and sell at reduced rates, fair enough people have principles and they may well decide to pay you your rates but other people may decide to buy copies off third parties. Please remember its not r/l its a game

There is no monopoly here. People are just as free to go and bookmark regions on their own and sell them just as we are. However, we do not appreciate them reselling our work without permission.
This is a response to unauthorized reselling of our time and labors, and a perfectly reasonable one at that.

Right. Which is why I'll be buying - "pirate" - and distributing them.
Welcome to the information society.
You can't stop them except by hiring "mercenaries" who can't play with the big boys, so annoy new pilots. Pathetic.

Hey Maya Rkell, here's an official press release on behalf of EVE:
STFU. NOBODY CARES ABOUT YOUR ENDLESS WHINING AND TROLLING.

its seems here that a 'reseller' is undercutting the main supplier in there only market, this can only be good for business. unless you have copy written you r so called 'original' work then u have no arguement. but if u are prepared to go to war for a petty 'copywright infringement' then so be it.
some people have more money than sense these days

Oh, have a problem do we?
Your...mercenaries...are incapeable of taking on REAL PvPers. Barely graduated and inexperienced pilots are all you can handle. And the corperation who hired you is a sad pathetic bunch of ISK-grabbing cowards who can't accept that what they have done is nothing special.
Hiring THUGS, publicising the fact and trying to maintain artifically high prices for your "commodiity" is one way to ruin your reputation in the World of Eve. YOU chose to highlight your inadequacies on GalNet. Congratulations!

In light of the decleration of war upon our friends THE UNITED STARS ORGANIZATION. Our corporation will put a retaliatory declaration of war upon BOTH aggressor corps to a vote.
We have a long standing Mutual defence pact with USO and intend to honour it as they have done for us in the past.

Just out of curiosity (and because of the verbiage of this post)... would you guys consider liscensing out your bookmarks for resale? ---------------

That we are both, individually, highly experienced pilots? That you pulled out of the fire of Alliance warfare because it was too hot for you? That you CHOSE to stop fighting those who were your equals in order to fight those who are manifestly not? You boast about strange things.
This...corperation...which chose to advertise they hired you will also suffer - economically - for it if I have anything to do with it. Do you wish to bet I will not?
You are the pest here. A plague, indeed.

Shadar Ishaan, Not at this time. The Capsuleer community is not large enough at this point to really merit resellers when we are quite capable of handling demand. I have however used such programs in the past.
For the General Public, I would like to point out that we would more then welcome true competition that are willing to put in their own hard work and map their own regions.
However, we will not stand by idle while thieves and the company of thieves would line their pockets with our hard work and justify their own actions by calling those who they are pilfering greedy, while appeasing their own greed.
I invite anyone who would challenge the validity of our work to attempt to emulate our products so that they may find out first hand how much work it truly is.
USO and other resellers have done nothing but invite this action upon themselves with their own actions. We are simply answering that invitation.
Nor will TAINS take seriously any threats of war from any organization named after a food product.

Just curious. The language seemed to imply that there would be sanctioned reselling. Glad to see you guys are dealing with this by using in-game means. ---------------

It sounds like you need to hire some mercenaries to crush the target of your ire , why bother chasing them round empire when you can pay someone to do it for you. - - - - - - - - -

Edited by: marshal123 on 09/04/2005 10:33:25 Firstly i would like to say i do not like the slanderous use of the USO name in such a way. The corp(USO) is not selling or making profit from your petty bookmarks. We do however have a member who bought the said items on escrow and he did so for the sole purpose of resseling. He has chosen to carry on selling the said item and in our eyes is doing nothing wrong as he purchased this product and was not told he couldnt resell. We will stand by our members as we stand by our allies, be warned TAINS we will not fall only grow stronger and once we are done with the mercs youll be next on our list....

Buying/selling ingame items on Ebay is a violation of the EULA.
Guess what happens when you violate the EULA. -
