Let begin with the facts. Jita public chat = scams spammed every half second. Players falling for scams = mostly nobody Why? either people know better or don't have enough money to fall for the scam in the first place.
Solution = Temporarily Mute -> Permanent Mute -> Temporarily Ban (ideas just ideas)
Step 1) Install a small feature into the game that allows players to report other players based on how terrible of a scam there trying to pull off. Step 2 ) game flags those players not anything visible, just a flag for You (CCP) Can see them & track them. Step 3) Review or design a program that views how many players this guy scams a day, or week or month or year or so on. If there player doesn't meet the quota Apply Solution! -Quota * Scammers which are not profitable Get Solution ( due to no one falling for there scam or because players do not find it clever and try to keep them in business).
Reasoning behind all of these? This is a game that is suppose to make you use your Brain! It pains me to see the many of which, trying to scam and failing. why because it is to easy identified as a scam. I gladly Block, but the masses of retardation is Too vast and I can not keep up I need your Help. |

1. Not all of them are scams. Just block the spammers. 2. If that were true, they wouldn't be scamming there, would they?
tl;dr Use the Block feature. This is EVE - Everybody Versus Everybody.

Move Jita to Sobaseki, then when the spammers move there move the hub again! PROBLEM SOLVED. Ill take my 10b in Nightmares if you please. DUST514 isn't on PC because CCP wants 2 different communities influencing each other, not people tabbing out to give themselves Orbital Strikes. (Also they don't want to cannibalise their existing playerbase) |

Just give Jita local a CSPA charge of 10k to 1mil and things will get quiet really quick. Please visit your user settings to re-enable images. |

Actually theasiest method would be a word count that when it notes you pulling the same contract with in 30 seconds 4 times it mutes you for 30 +- 10 seconds. Or for real lolz, whenever you get muted you have to fill out a captcha to regain posting. Now scamming can not be done afk! |

Didn-¦t opening trade windows have the same effect?
Requires the scammerspammer to be in the same station, of course....

Requires the scammerspammer to be in the same station, of course.... No they use a macro that doesnt deal with it. Now if they made trade windows need to be declined or accepted and they stayed on until acted upon... Well the new duel will help for all of 30 seconds. They are using action recording software that continuously replays the same set of commands None of which opening a window interrupts, unless the window forces you to act on it. The bots get messed up as they have to act on the window but dont know how. Heck my mouse could be a better spammer than most of these bots, well at least until its noticed I post 15 seconds apart and the same thing each time. One guy realized that and so had copy pate for a few different ads.
But no the easiest method is pattern recognition for the postings being an exact time apart and consisting of similar messages (easiest way to check is if a phrase continuously repeats) |

How about setting up a system similar to what Ebay uses? Show some useable information and give the character a feedback based security clearance.
Character : George Number of transactions: 135 Likes: 105 Dislikes: 5 Neutral: 25 Blocked by: 33 Risk estimate: +8.1
Character : Frank Number of transactions: 135 Likes: 5 Dislikes: 125 Neutral: 5 Blocked by: 133 Risk estimate: -8.1
Obviously this plan is weak. Alt to Alt transfers would be used to manipulate the numbers within minutes. Maybe somebody could expand on this line of thought? |

easy fix is to switch to a dead channel. Make one if you don't have like me an empty 1 man corp channel.
Not like this makes you miss much.
if there was an honest to goodness 750 mil uber bs on contract....there'd be no need to spam it in local. It be bought already. Or the omg, this guy didn't decompress his ores and I have no money to buy it....someone would have snagged it up if legit. Or after 3 years...the chuckle you get get from the cheap charon contract with the carbon in the contract just not as good as it used to be. PLex scam....if they are willing to sell plex at 400 mil, they would have sold to buy orders at 500+ mil as it be 100 mill at least over what they wanted anyway. Like I said....don't see the chat you aren't missing much.
Jita as far as normal chat is dead. Now rens or dodixie....you get a better local chat worth watching. And the spammers don't even ruin it as much.

1) Finish Incarna, open up station space. 2) Add Dust style small arms to EVE. 3) Take out bounties on scammers. 4) Kick in the door to their quarters, kill their clones until they relocate or choose reputable career paths.

Sure. Read the contracts before accepting them.
Unlike ebay, we are dealing with commoditized items being traded in a process that eliminates all uncertainty about the quality of said item.
ebay's ranking system is designed to protect you from those who would abuse the inherent information asymmetry that buying something sight unseen comes with. EVE's contract system simply gives you all that information, eliminating the asymmetry. This is EVE - Everybody Versus Everybody.

Doesn't work due to all the new alts being created every time
CPP can't ban them, but I would like them (or some third party) to offer filtering service you can subscribe to - Filter Spammers: removes messages from chars which have post same message very frequently: Repetitive count > x% (20 ?) - Filter scammers : removes messages from chars which are classified as scammers; automatically added by posting 3 contracts where contract price is x% (20-30?) above esitmate value of items in contract (rule base to be extended, in the mean time manually added by trustworthy players) - Filter unliked people: remove messages from chars which having been unlike voted/blocked by more then x (10-20) people
Jita is the worst, but service should be available everywhere/in the other trade hubs as well |
