Exist any official statement about a massive Ban campaign against Realmoneytraders from the last few days? I see a massive drop (apprx.-50) of players in my favourite Missionsystem since last sunday. They dont move to a new Agent, they are all offline.  Those players has all rubbish names and had flying missions 23 hours/day. Just wondering. It's damn quit now...

I went to a highsec belt last night and found it had some decent sized roids, so something has changed.
Maybe a miner can make an honest buck now!  |

Also factor in the effect that plex has has on the rmt sellers. When you google them up now all you get is "OMG PREASE BUY ISK FROM US PREASE! SUPER DUPER CHEAP ISK PREASE PREASE BUY OUR ISK CHEAP ISK!!!!!   
It won't be too long before they simply die out due to flagging market demand.

Maybe they decided other games where it is easier to macro (less can baiting, suicide ganking and so on) were more worthy of their attention.
The end of the great war might also has caused a drop on the demand from RM buyers.
Let's hope it stay that way... |

Personally I feel CCP has done something about it. At least I hope so.

And now the Prices for PLEX drops under 400M. Maybe a first consequence due the lower demand frome these guys. Let's wait a month to see if here is a perma-ban or only for 1 month.

I'd guess CCP have wiped out a big RMT ring.
Man I wish they'd announce it when they did that. They dont have to tell us HOW they did the forensics, just "HAI GUYS WE BANNED 8472345 MACRO ACCOUNTS TODAY" would be enough.

It's no coincidence that the prices of Cruise missiles in Jita has also tanked lately. It's almost as much as the drop seen at the time of Chinese New Year.

And then gained them back, plus the extra $5 per account creation fee, when they all resubscribe.

And all those people buying their isk now have to do it by buying gtcs and selling them, which results in far higher profits for ccp. Contrary to a popular belief of people with a tinfoil hat, ccp would get far more money without macro's. |

i usually dont refer "to that other game/company" but i remember vaguely that blizzard (ok steam aswell?) usually every few months says something along "last month we banned over x account due to violation" and they do/did that on regulary basis... this keeps the spirit a bit up (in hope its not a lie)

Don't ask me. Trade volume of large guns went down by 80% in Jita. I could have made a fortune! Ohh, and if you need a ship in the next few weeks, buy it now. |

The price of Kernite ore also tanked, indicating a drop in Level 4 mission grinders (Kernite was required for one of the missions) "Ozone is blue and smells faintly of geraniums." (Qi, BBC TV) |

Hi,
China passed a law banning RMT from online games.
China bans Gold Farming
The example is with Wow, but the same applies to Eve online too.. This may be the end for macro'ers!

I'm also curious - can CCP say that they chose their players instead of bundles of cash? I'm sure they like both, it would be a tough choice. |
