I can't say for sure. I have heard of people being banned for abusing the buddy program.
You might consider sending in a petition on it first. "Verily, I have often laughed at the weaklings who thought themselves good because they had no claws."

I think I'm missing something? What would be the point?
I could be wrong but when you start a trial with the buddy system, the trial has to be subbed (not plexed) in order for the main to get a plex.

no, it activates the account, i already tried.
the point, is to have 10 free accounts for 51 days, for example skill them all for retriever (wich is about 10 days) and make them afk mining 41 days |

Except it wasn't free. You bought 10 plex with the main account and by using plex, your main shouldn't get a plex/game time reward. |

CCP is fine with anything, as long as they don't have to listen to people bitching about it. Then it becomes an issue they say they'll resolve to make you happy, but go for drinks instead. The lack of money is the root of all evil. |

In the the Buddy Program Terms and Conditions link it says:
"The Buddy Program is intended for you to encourage new players to join EVE Online. Violating the purpose of the Buddy Program in any way or form is prohibited. Violations of this rule will be handled by EVE Online Customer Support, and action will be taken against players who violate this rule (including, but not limited to, warnings or bans of the offending accounts)."
So I wouldn't recommend what you're proposing. |

EDIT: After rereading your post, I'm pretty sure it's the latter. You only claim reward if you pay with a credit card or maybe a couple of other options. GTC and PLEX don't get you the reward I don't think. When a buddy program uses plex instead of paying the original pilot is offered 30 days or destroyer pack. I am just here to snuggle. |

I'm sure CCP would be just fine with somebody buying 10 PLEX to end up with 10 months game time...

Abusing the Buddy System is considered an exploit and will not be tolerated. Incidents will be handled on a case by case basis and action taken may include bans for all accounts involved and/or confiscation of ISK and items. Abuse includes, but is not limited to, farming gifts and making throw-away alts for grief-play purposes."
in short, there's a "spirit" to the program, and abusing the "spirit" of it will get you banned. what the op suggest is a clear abuse of the idea of the program, and will get him banned.
do not look for a specific "rule" there isn't any, they don't have to come up with one, and its fine that they don't. |

When I started my alt account I was told it was totally legal to use buddy invite for alt account creation. I asked on these forums.
Maybe 10 is an abuse - I created just 1. All in all - I wouldn't believe the responses here. Contact GM via a ticket. "NUTS!!!" - general McAuliffe |

Except you get 10 months of game time on 10 accounts (one month each) for afk mining/whatever you'd want to do on them, and would get 10 months gametime on your main account which you would actually play. so you'd get 20 months for the price of 10. This has gotten people banned before. |

in this case you buy 10 plex and get 27 months (10 months on main, 30+21 days * 10 disposable accounts), which make ccp cry. |

GTC and PLEX don't get you the reward I don't think. When a buddy program uses plex instead of paying the original pilot is offered 30 days or destroyer pack. Did this get changed again? Because if I remember correctly you once could activate the trial with a plex and recive a plex or a month game time on your main but then they changed it so you only got the plex or time if you activated the trial by paying real money. |

I asked about this in a petition a few weeks ago. They told me that creating 2-3 tnrowaway accounts per year is okay. |

You might consider sending in a petition on it first. I think they do it only if you create a bazillion accounts to get presents in winter or fanfest. |

You won't get the referral rewards if you activate the accounts with PLEX. This post was lovingly crafted by a member of the Goonwaffe Posting Cabal, proud member of the popular gay hookup site somethingawful.com, Spelling Bee & Grammar Gestapo. |

^ For OP...
Read that.
Now, consider you posted on a public form, GD in particular.

Nobody here can give you any more than a guess based on hearsay or personal experience. To get a real answer, I suggest filing a support ticket to ask about it.
