Just made a new character a few hours ago and started training and logged it off, logged it in now and i've an isk selling evemail for some new isk selling website, its different to the other ones i've received before.
Now instead of just one isk selling company spamming everyone with mails, we've got more isk sellers getting the same idea and sending their own mails, what is the game coming too? PLEASE do something about trial accounts, prevent them from sending EVE mails or something, its a pain to log on to any character and see these mails all the time.

Set your CSPA charge to 100k.
They still spam you.
Only it costs them 100k

No, staying out of jita does not help you, i've received these mails on alts in deep 0.0 who had not been logged in for months, and have not posted on the forums. The only way they got my name was by entering 3 random letters in search a character, and sending mails to all results.

Whats the point? We all know they are using trial accounts and will just make more as they need them, I am not going to waste my time reporting them, because thats exactly what i'd be doing, wasting my time, it would also be wasting the GM's time, i honestly dont know why the GMS even bother banning when they know they will just make a new trial acc in 5 mins.

So sit there and continue to get eve-mails from the same person again and again. Do your part, or stop complaining.

CCP could also when characters are reported to have sent these evemails they could automatically delete all evemails from a character when they ban them.
Personally only one of my characters has ever recieved such an evmail as this, but if the majority of the eve populace started reporting all characters that did this then, it would be possible to keep up with them.

Just got this from some 1 day old character, I did petition it, but what is the use, I made several petitions on countless before this guy. Before its been about pure isk selling, now its moved onto about "safe isk buying with GTC's". How much longer does CCP intend to "look into things" regarding this? EVE is turned into a game where its easy to buy yourself to ingame richness with out of game money, its a friggin disgrace.

Remove the site addresses.
As for the GTC thing, I'm pretty sure its exactly what we've been prophecising for since GTCs for ISK started. They farm the ISK, buy GTCs, sell GTCs for $ and then the people they sold the GTCs to buy ISK using the GTCs. Who do you think from?

I'm just worried that these trades aren't marginal anymore if these people can put up adds for Google adds.
Just too bad lawsuits towards eBay and Google adds are useless. |

Eve is kind of turning into "Project Entropia" or "Entropia Universe" as its nextgen is called (I think). Shame...

Received one of those trade isk for gtc evemails myself this weekend.
It's funny how those mails are perfectly within the EULA, except that they may be qualified as spamming. Beyond that, they're doing nothing that CCP can ban them for. Another wonderful side effect of allowing the sale of GTC's for isk...

i fully support GTCs for ISK (CCP get the $$$ and that improves the games) if more players wnat to buy ISK for $$$ only via the GTC way then i fully support this as CCP gets a cut of the profits and that helps improvie the game (taht said im totally against the ebay - and other websites for ISK) always have been mostly because CCP dont get a cut. If the money is going into the game ie GTC then i can fully understand as it improves the game hardware and supports software development. Just delete the evemails they are a minor conviencnce

Had same message myself
I could use a titan, tho... would be nice to fire on RUS academy dude with, buut, if buying titans of ebay is legal, then RA would buy 10 or so, bob 30, and we would drown in them >.< -_-

Imho, over time, this will just help oust people away from EVE. If players start feel they can't compete ingame because of other players use out of game cash to buy themself ahead ingame. Its just sad imho.
Many new players feel the skill system and catching up is out of reach. If they gonna get the feeling they cant compete ingame due to richer people can buy themselfs ahead in addition, that is not good.
I know there is a cry about the poor people who cant afford to pay the game to play otherwise, but... If you can afford to use a computer, and have a phone line to connect to the internet, there is a good chance you can afford to pay for EVE too.

The GTC could have been a fake one to start with, but nobody is any wiser until it gets used.
Surely, the issue here is that the spammers are unlicenced GTC sellers yes? The solution would be to find some method of GTC distribution to combat the above.

Well, you could just make it so that when you order a GTC then that specific GTC is locked to the account that ordered it (you specify the account when you order), and have only CCP distrubuting them.
then GTC's can no-longer be resold, as they would be useless to anyone else.

Edited by: Rashmika Clavain on 10/07/2006 12:56:36 I got the eve time card mail spam this morning...
I petitioned it, within 60 seconds a GM replied saying he was dealing and that this was a breach of the EULA for what was being offered.
I don't know what will happen to the originator of the email, but I suspect the toon will be banned.
