I've never spent real money to buy ISK. I accumulate ISK in-game in ways I find enjoyable, and I buy PLEX off the market to keep my accounts open.
So the only way this whole shebang affects me is the fact that these ***holes have been stockpiling PLEX. This drives the price up. Maybe not a huge amount but still.
And if CCP bans whatever account(s) hold these PLEX, taking them out of circulation, CCP will have been paid for a service (461 years of game time) which they never have to provide. I hereby repeat and extend the calls made previously, namely that PLEX destroyed have their value donated to a charity. If you do that and include PLEX on permabanned accounts, then at least they will be doing some good. |

If I were the source of the leak, I might be tempted to seed some false information in there, just to see how much credence CCP puts into external data when determining punishment for RMT.
- If only the real RMTers get banned, then that implies that they may use external data to initiate an investigation, but they don't rely on it.
- If even the red herrings get banned, then that implies CCP does not do a proper verification using actual game logs.
- If nobody (or only a few) get banned, that implies that even when pointed in the right direction, there are ways of laundering ISK that CCP cannot substantiate. |

Originally by: Christos Hendez Everyone politely ignored that someones used SOMER Blink to launder over 6000$ (1 TRILLION) worth of isk? :D
I doubt that that in any way actually laundered it. |

For goodness sake people, all this bantering about who owns the data and whether it's accurate or not is meaningless.
CCP can use the database as an indicator of which people to look more closely at, and determine their guilt or innocence based *ENTIRELY* on CCPs OWN DATA.
Having a nice short list of a few hundred or thousand people to look at is far easier than combing through several hundred thousand. |

To everyone saying buying ISK with PLEX is no better, there is one significant difference.
When you buy ISK with PLEX, some other player gets to play for free.
When you buy ISK from farmers, the only person who wins is the farmer. |
