Alright so he's what I'm thinking on this matter, if you disagree, fair enough.
If you buy Isk or PLEX from a site not sanctioned by CCP I thought they will ban you if caught?
I for the last 5 months or so have been incredibly stupid enough to buy my PLEX from a external site. Yes yes I know, flame me etc but I was low on cash and well....lets me honest, its a lot cheaper on some sites. Anyway, I've been getting away with it until I log in today and noticed that my balance is set to a negative. I check to see that a GM has set it to this amount. Uh oh, busted...
Yep, well quite frankly thats what I get for being a idiot and breaking the rules right? Well...sort of...
My wallet now sits at quite a large negative number, well into the billions. This is my only toon, my main. Grinding back up that kind of isk will take a looooong time... I thought I'd sell some stuff, ships etc to get the ball rolling. Oh wait, I can't sell due to the sellers tax.
Better go mission. Oh wait, I can't repair or buy ammo.
Have they always punished players who buy isk like this?
I'm sorry for what I've done and I completely deserve to be punished but quite frankly I'd prefer a ban and my wallet set to 0. At least after a ban I will return to EvE without question, but this? I have no way of making up that isk unless I spend months missioning...thats a tad bit harsh CCP don't you think?
So I guess I'm just looking for a GM or such to respond with their view on this matter. I'm all for taking a ban, I deserve to be banned for a time, I broke the rules.
I just don't agree with this form of punishment.

I feel bad for ya, I really do. However, it has been known for a long time now that buying money from anyone who is *NOT* CCP is a no no. The punishment is harsh but I feel that it is a fair one. I think the best solution is to biomass the toon and restart man. You only have a few months into the game so the skill point hit will be big but not catastrophic.
Just say NO to RMT.

Create an alt. to generate income for ammo and such. Or create a new account to work alongside your main.

Do it in a kestrel.
Since you like spending real money on fake sites now is your chance to make up for your retardation and buy the plex from the eve site until your back into the positive. Don't understand how people think they can get away with this crap. I'm not a Pirate, I'm a Terrorist.

Ammo wise should have gone Amarr bro

Buy some PLEX and sell them to bring you back into positive.
Also, I read somewhere that they are thinking about putting .01 isk charges on jet cans, trade windows, and etc to close those loop holes.

Then it all depends on how much into negative isk you are. You can buy a bunch of plexes and sell (what ccp wants you to do) or roll a new character transfer your stuff to that and sell it. However training this would take some gametime so have to see what is worth more to you. |

Neg wallet is not a big deal just use an alt to buy stuff for you and trade it via contract or station trade. The only thing a neg wallet prevents is mission running ; you will lose out on mission reward payments, claiming player bounties on pods and market/contract trading for obvious reasons. Everything else in the game is uneffected including ratting, just set your corp tax to 100%. Come to think of it you could use corp wallet to market trade too.
I don't speak from experince of being made neg wallet FYI. |

I dont know whether to laugh at the fact you think this is unfair or that you where expecting to get banned.
But in either case.

Move on. Sell plex with alt and buy the stuff you need for main then trade/contract it to him. Keep the neg wallet, there are ways around it.
Or
Do what some of these very helpful people said and use the plex you buy legit to bring you back to a positive wallet.
The reason for a neg and not a ban is so you can log in every day and see the stupid decision/s you made. Which i think is p.coo |

Your char is only 16 days old.
Just create a new char and start over.
Also be glad they didn't ban you but gave you a negative wallet. In any other MMO you would have been perma banned. Which I think every isk buyer deserves. |

Hmm lets see, you knowingly bought ISK got caught and now you think the nice GM's will just punish you by saying you can't walk in the park anymore? Instead of them just burning it down.(Bad comparison I know)
I think you owe me and everyone else that read this thread an apology
Edit: hold on 16days old and already buying ISK?damn guy I wonder how much you would have bought after playing for a year. I dont post often, but when I do i'm probably trolling you |
