If someone is caught botting, then why does the legality of cache scraping matter at all? |

So how often do we need to go back and check CCP Peligro's post for ninja edits?
Is once every 5 minutes for the next decade good enough?
I wouldn't want to accidentally be using EVE-MON while his response gets ninja edited. - |

Beautiful CCP Peligro! Now if only the Third Party Polices could make that clear. ;)
Sorry, you want us to believe that a random code monkey will just make his own decision? You want this to go away change the TOS and THEN we will believe you. CCP are the consummate "tell them what they want to hear and get them off my desk, we can **** them later", this time update the TOS and news item this and THEN we will believe you are serious. |

Can we *ALSO* get this from CCP Stillman? Not that I don't believe you, but I'd really prefer it to come from the person in charge of the people with the ban button.
Stillman is not in charge of the people with the ban button, he is CCPs Security Analyst. Our boss is GM Solomon, VP of Customer Relationship Management.
The word comes from Team Security as well as CCPs Legal department. It is official and you can quote me on it!

Because due to a complete lack of ability they are probably using the cache as a detection system, probably scanning the cache for access times .. looking for the access pattern of market bots. It is one of the lowest level indicators that can be used to detect other activities. |

Except it was market bot. "Only cache scraping" was a dumb argument then, it remains a dumb argument now. Market bots should be banned and the cache scraping side is irrelevant. |

Right, and it was a terrible defense because the character's actual input commands were clearly being automated, which was the bannable part. That's the point, even though cache scraping certainly could be used to assist a botter in whatever they're doing, it's the botting part of what they do that's bannable.

Prices are going up in high, prices are falling in low and null and off-path high. These tools are integral for moving goods out of null/low into high and ISK from high into null/low.
Making the eve-central, eve-marketdata market update tools + evemon illegal means that L/S, N/S traders will now have to sit there for 12 hours clicking through the regions items looking for deals. Maybe it's illegal but not enforced to click through with Evemon to update those sites, but certainly not with a market update website.
So, L/S and N/S traders are going to spend a lot more time buying your trash, supplying your stations or pretty much anything else that you might rely on them for.
Time is ISK, the buys will go down in LS because less people will buy the deals, or even update the market sites with your regions deals. Less trash going into Jita means less T2 manufacture and higher prices for what will get there. Less manufacturing in high means Null will once again be complaining.
But yeah, kill those RMT's.

Anyway, Goon whine is obviously not about Evemon.
Wow you're right it must be about all the sinister bots we use to keep the rest of the population of New Eden down. Why are you so worried then about your program? If it's harmless, then it is. Just like before.
Counter-point: if it was harmful, they can ban me for it. JUST LIKE BEFORE.
I have no idea why it was necessary for them to come out and say "any cache scraping is a bannable offense" when they could easily address botting without publishing a devblog announcing that scraping is bannable. |

I think the cache scraping angle is just the root that can be grabbed onto, if you take my meaning.
There are an infinite number of ways and software variations that can be created to make illegitimate use of that information (and tracking/documenting all of those ways would be literally a never ending process), however they all share cache scraping in common. It's the common handle that CCP can use (if needed) to get a grip on to deal with all of them.

So out of curiosity, considering the things listed are all illegal activities in their own right, where does cache scraping come into it?

I think you missed the part of the EULA considering cache scraping, which hasn't changed with this announcement. It's always been bannable.

Cache-scraping was an issue, which was compounded by how that scraping was used to the point where they couldn't overlook it. Exactly what the new policy clarifies. They're still not going to care if you just scrape the cache, just like back then. You're still going to have to do something bad with the data, just like back then. This simply explains why this is the case. Vote Malcanis for CSM8. |

Then perhaps someone needs to have a talk with the security analysts and tell them that they don't decide what's a bannable offense. They have come on her quite a few times and stated that they decide what is bannable and that they are the only source of interpretation when it comes to what is a bannable offense.
Now that forum posts are no longer something that we can refer back to as a valid determination of what is allowable and what isn't, we want you to put it in the official documentation. Is it really too much to ask to modify the EULA and/or TOS to make cache scraping and the like explicitly allowed? http://pvpwannabe.blogspot.com/ |
