I have a question CCP Guard
"Neither RMT nor bot-related activity have any place in New Eden any longer"
odd choice of phrasing on the dev blog, implication being CCP condoned botting till recently....

You could read it that way, or you could read it for what it is - "Until sreegs came along we didn't really have a team in place to effectively deal with this." |

I guess activity logs can only be kept so long. Not being a botter I'd say go back to 2003 with this.
We can go back further but we're leaving wiggle room depending on the offense. The farther back we go the more manual labor is involved which means we spend more time manually sifting through things which leaves our net less wide than we want it to be. |

I don't really use it for bots as we tend to get flooded with information and there's a reporting feature for that. For today we're limiting it to major items such as privatized RMT rings or specific technologies. |

Sreegs I have a really short attention span and got to the part where you said you will remove ALL isk in game received through ill gotten gains which is great and all- how does this work if some RMT idiot uses their ill gotten isk to fulfil a legitimate contract, is the isk taken back from the seller and their item returned? |

Red Alliance former leader talks directly about his own RMT actions. Few months later - nothing happens. I suppose right now place in large alliance leadership is the safest one for RMT because there is "no evidence" for ban. How many characters with director roles in large alliances were banned in recent ban wave? |

Seem to remember reading something a while back about the way youtube handles IP claims, ie someone claiming eve vids etc places adds on others vids where the one claiming IP rights gets the advertising revenue, also seems a good way for RMT crowd gaining free aditional money for the adds, might be worth either yourself seeing about disputing the ownership of the vids on youtube or better CCP games doing so.
atm in middle of something in eve, when i can i'll see about tracking down the news article about this and post a link on this thread.

We are not a part of your metagame and this has nothing to do with who does or doesn't like who or what alliance they're in. We deal with what we have evidence of not whatever site on the internet may make allegations.
We don't look at what alliances they're part of or who they are in whatever alliance. We follow the activity. If the activity leads to an alliance then we'll action on an alliance. As it stands this is something fairly new we're working with and while we've had some people with roles tagged that's not a number I anticipate us reporting on as to be frank it's meaningless when the topic is "RMT" and is really only useful when the topic is "I think alliance x is evil". Today we took out at least 3 corporations as an example.
We're going to do this in a way that makes sense from an RMT perspective not based on whomever the metagame flavor of the month for accusations is. |

CCP really needs to look at the root of the issue which is making isk in game in any way is terribly boring. Ratting or mining or hauling or missioning. It doesn't matter how you make your money they are all incredibly dull. The amount of time you have to devote to turn any profit especially ratting and mining is ridiculous. Not to mention the fact that if bitters are completely removed before any changes or fixes are put into place to resolve this issue the market willsuffer. Prices will soar an the output ofitems and ships will decrease. I doubt many people realise just how much the current mlarket is dependent on botters especiallythe miners. Let me say though I am not condoning or supporting them but most of the boys are a result of the game being just so dull and repetitive in the ways we make our isk. Incursions however are a good contrast as they are fun and enjoyable in how we make our money. But the problem still is that's its hard and boring to make isk especially in low and null sec. If we could find new ways to get people to actively engage the game to make isk and make it time effective we could seriously reduce the amount of botters in the game. Banning bots wont silver the problem as to why there are bots. It will just cause further issues down the road. Ccp needs to look at the initial reasons why people not and improve resolve and enhance the ways we make our isk in an effective and timely manner. |

Really nice stuff, I feel a really happy customer
Quote:we're expecting to see an average of 100B ISK a day removed from botting accounts.
Does it mean that bots provide at least 3 trillions/months, around 12% of total isk bounties collected in the same period? If it does, it is the definitive proof that botting is (was) a significant part of the EVE economy; and since there is a net flow of 24Tisk/MO into the economy of eve this could turn into a pretty big isk sink
Aynway, kill them all |

Could you provide information on the PLEX for Snitches program? I don't believe I caught it the first time around. Is it some kind of automatic thing whenever any report is made, or does it have to go through specific channels? CCP Sreegs is my favorite developer. |

Typical CCP.
I hope CCP realizes that by banning the bots, their going to massively alter the in-game market. From what information they've released, about 75% of the current items on the market is bot produced, what happens when that 75% turns to 0?
We've seen what happens when plex's get flooded on the market, and when they become scarce. Anyone remember the days when plex's were 300m or less?
CCP's already fubar'd. My account was banned for "RMTing", I sold a motherf***ing character, using the forums, and they said I sold it for real life cash. That's 50mill SP toon I'm not getting back, nor the 8billion it was sold for.
I hope this current "War on Bots" turns around and bites them in the ass. It'll be a well-deserved kick in the butt for the failure of not looking more than 2 ft in front of them.
Also, you pansy CCP guys, perma ban Mittani, make an example. Quit bending over backwards for your players. Enough is Enough. |

By this measuring stick every single MMO ever has been boring. I hear the argument and I'd love to see some data which proves that altering gameplay to meet whatever standard the rather nebulous term "fun" applies to in any way mitigates RMT. |

I only care because one known member directly said in public - "I sold ISK from alliance wallet to pay my debt for my car". There is no evidence for CCP, but there enough evidence for rest of the community, including RA members. We see that ISK seller still play this game and nothing happens.That's pretty much describes the whole anti-RMT system. |

At the moment if you provide us with information at [email protected] which leads to us discovering something of value we can action against we will give a reward which matches the value of the data. We don't use this for individual botters for instance but detailed information about an RMT ring might qualify. |

Shattered crystal, Deepspace deposit (battleclinics resell site) are all authorised reseller of eve time codes which are convertable to plex etc, what he means is something like www.randomrmt.com (not a actual site, just an example) who offer to sell accounts (EULA violation) items like titans etc (all items etc are CCPs ip and property, so you cant sell what you dont own) plex which is a ingame item, and isk which is ingame currency for real life money, ie -ú stirling, $ USD etc etc etc
