Originally by: Solaris233 Is scamming people for plexes a bannable offense.
I'm not planning on doing it, but would just like to know so I don't violate any eve rules.
Ohh by the way i came back on the 5 day return thing and earned enough isk in 1 night to pay for 30 more days.
You're not planning on doing it but want to know that you won't violate any rules when you do it, Ok 
Yea. XD Some people really have their way with language.

If on the other hand you fool someone into selling a PLEX to you for 280k isk instead of 280mil, that's a gray area; they may have purchased a GTC that they converted into the PLEX that they are now being scammed out of, in which case they are still essentially trading a real-money item with you.
... Keep telling yourself but that won't make it true. The amount of people who understand that someone ALWAYS pays real money for a plex is frighteningly little. Nevertheless a plex is an ingame item and can be scammed. Story over. No gray area. No maybe. No matter of perception.
If some plex-isk-buyer-kiddie is ermmm slow enough to log right into Jita with it and have it scammed away, then he deserves it and the scammer is merely doing the community a favour.

Personally I feel in-game scamming with PLEX should not at all be allowed, whether as a seller or a buyer.
And let me guess, you would also determine what scamming is?

Sorry, but I must have completely missed the 'official CCP statement' where they said scamming with PLEX is a-ok.
If they haven't said it's ok, then I am perfectly entitled to my opinion as a player, and he is not entitled to tell me that I am not entitled to my opinion where he voices his own opinion, because that is a matter of hypocrisy.
So unless you can link me to the thread, dev blog or news item where it was openly stated that scamming specifically with PLEX is ok, I'm going to throw you into the same basket as him.
You can assume whatever you want, we aren't the search function.

You're allowed to scam with the one, not with the other.
Do you understand what a 'gray area' is in the context of rules and policies yet, or do I have to spell it out for you?
Yes, please SPELL IT OUT FOR ME because I still dont get where that gray area is supposed to be. See the underlined parts.
I'd really like to see your definition of it.
Originally by: AnonyTerrorNinja
I can admit to being wrong on the 'official statement' regarding PLEX scamming legality, but I will not be told that I am not entitled to my opinion 'because the big man says so'. This isn't a totalitarian game we're in, as much as you may want to believe it is, Tippia.
Facts are totalitarian. It takes some defenseless whiney wannabe-tolerant teenager to compensate his lack of better knowledge with opinions though.
By the way, let me guess: Your definition of "gray area" is going to be a matter of opinion, right?

Undercover agents blahblah .. wtf?
EDIT: Seriously, you tried to explain what a gray zone is but that's the opposite of the PLEX situation. What do you want from your readers? :S
EDIT 2: I want bloody revenge for trying to make me read that whole pile.

Edited by: Swiftgaze on 12/01/2010 12:44:06 The most hilarious bit of this topic is that nobody cares enough about TerrorNinja to tell him that people only keep answering because they want to know what other crap he can pull out of his rear.
