Originally by: Patient 2428190 Oh wait, its a graphics engine that is completely unrelated to anything EVE has been for the past decade.
You're missing the point.
We're not beta-testing a Twilight MMO. We're beta-testing WoD.
WoD is to Twilight what EVE is in relation to the Star Wars Chrismas Special. ùùù ôIf you're not willing to fight for what you have in ≡v≡à you don't deserve it, and you will lose it.ö ù Karath Piki |

CCP have overheads that the RMTers dont.
Taxes for one thing.

Originally by: Whitehound If they had each player's credit card information, too, then it still would not be proof of a real money transfer, but it can be considered a "grim indicator" and an important link in the evidence chain, because one cannot get such information easily.

Originally by: Whitehound Nonsense. If the names on this list match with CCP's own information then it is merely a happy coincidence, a fun fact, but nothing of value to CCP's efforts. They cannot even use this information to pat themselves on their backs, because the list is not one of their own efforts, it cannot be trusted and therefore not used for a verification. I wonder if you can understand this ...
àand I wonder if you understand that they don't need the CC information to ban people for RMT. And they most certainly can use that list in their efforts. ùùù ôIf you're not willing to fight for what you have in ≡v≡à you don't deserve it, and you will lose it.ö ù Karath Piki |

Originally by: stoicfaux The list can't be proven to be accurate/truthful.
It doesn't have to be.
The list is just a bunch of names with a "these people are RMT:ing (we think)" note attached. It's no different than me submitting a petition where I say "I think X is RMT:ing". My being able to prove it is entirely irrelevant as far as CCP decision to investigate and then ban X (or not) is concerned.
Quote: If CCP acts against the listed people, CCP could be threatened with a class action lawsuit or defamation lawsuit.
No they couldn't, as CCP has nothing to do with the publication of said list. Someone might be able to go after EN24, though, but that's another thing. CCP investigating people after receiving tips from their players does not really count as "defamation".
Quote: Meaning, if CCP catches them making RMT purchases now, then the listed people can make the claim that CCP targeted them based on a leaked list of dubious validity instead of from the recent RMT purchases, thus scaring off CCP with the thread of expensive court procedures.
àexcept that there is no grounds for a procedure. CCP is well within their rights to nuke any account at any time for any reason. They're particularly within their rights if they investigate an account and come up with proof of wrongdoing.
Again: CCP will not ban people based on the list. They will ban people based on improper behaviour (viz. RMT) once the GM:s have found enough evidence for it while investigating an account. ùùù ôIf you're not willing to fight for what you have in ≡v≡à you don't deserve it, and you will lose it.ö ù Karath Piki |

Originally by: Whitehound You get banned for what you did, not for breaking rules.
Quite the opposite.
You do not get banned for what you did, you get banned for breaking the rules. As it happens, what you did broke the rules. By breaking the rules, you open yourself to a ban.
Quote: For example, you break a rule and you did not know about it.
Ignorance is not a defence or an excuse.
Quote: You will not like such an answer
Why not? What you're asking is one step removed from the question at hand. "Because of rule #42" is all the justification that is ever need it, whether you like it or not. If you want an explanation why X is Y, then you're free to ask, but that is not in any way required to justify a ban.
So again: why is breaking the rules of the game ù cheating (you knowà doing something you're not supposed to do) ù not a justification for a ban?
Quote: And why does it need an investigation of a list full of player names?
For the same reason they need to investigate petitions. ùùù ôIf you're not willing to fight for what you have in ≡v≡à you don't deserve it, and you will lose it.ö ù Karath Piki |

Originally by: Whitehound You do get banned for what you did. If it says that harassment is not allowed then you get banned, because you harassed someone, not because there is a rule telling you not to.
Eh. No. If harassment is not allowed, you get banned for breaking the rule that says harassment isn't allowed. You get banned because the rules say you can get banned for breaking that particular rule.
If harassment is allowed, you don't get banned for what you did, because it's allowed.
Quote: Wrong. If there was no rule can they still ban you regardless of the existence of such a rule.
No. He is 100% right. If there was no rule against harassment, you couldn't be banned for harassment. You can still be banned, and it would still be entirely within the rules (rules you agreed with, btw), but it won't be due to the "no harassment" rule.

Originally by: Whitehound I consider it to be a major issue to ban thousands of players because they appear on some list. There is no proof of RMT.
What issue would that be, especially considering thatà Quote: CCP can ban you for almost anything and do not first need to put it up as a rule.
Just because they can ban you for not liking your face doesn't mean that your rule-breaking isn't the reason they ban you when you break the rules.
However, none of that matters. What we're talking about here is people breaking the rules. Since they break the rules, they will get banned for breaking the rules. Because they broke the rules. What they did was rule-breaking, which makes them subject to the rule that breaking the rules get you banned. ùùù ôIf you're not willing to fight for what you have in ≡v≡à you don't deserve it, and you will lose it.ö ù Karath Piki |

Originally by: Whitehound No. You can get banned, and because of what you did.
Incorrect. You can get banned. Period. If that's the view you want to take, then it doesn't matter what you did.
If you get banned for breaking the rules, then guess what: you got banned because you broke the rules. What you did was against the rules, and it was the rule-breaking that got you banned.
Either way, what "what you did" is more or less of zero relevance as far as justifying your ban.

Quote: Maybe you need to see it like this, but it really is an agreement between CCP and you as a person - not as a player - and it is about how you treat other people and as well as their property.
Yes, maybe you should look at it that way. And if you break the rules of the agreement, you get bannedà per the agreement.
Quote: Thousands of players on one, single list is not an individual case.
Of course they are individual cases. ùùù ôIf you're not willing to fight for what you have in ≡v≡à you don't deserve it, and you will lose it.ö ù Karath Piki |

Originally by: Whitehound Then read what it says under the Terms of Service.
Ok:
Failure to comply with these regulations can result in the immediate termination of your account and you will forfeit all unused access time to the game. [à] YOU ACKNOWLEDGE THAT YOU AGREE TO THESE RULES AND WILL ABIDE BY THEM.
YOU ACKNOWLEDGE THAT TERMINATION OF YOUR ACCOUNT BY CCP OR ONE OF ITS AUTHORIZED REPRESENTATIVES MAY RESULT FROM FAILURE TO ABIDE BY THESE RULES.
àthey talk an awful lot about breaking the rules for not using rule-breaking as a justification for bans.
Quote: it further says that you will be held responsible for what you did. So CCP will not ban you for breaking one of their rules.
Wrong. What it actually says is:
YOU AGREE THAT YOU WILL BE HELD PERSONALLY RESPONSIBLE FOR THE CONSEQUENCES (WHICH CAN INCLUDE ACCOUNT TERMINATION) THAT MAY RESULT IF ANY SUCH PERSON BREAKS THE RULES DESCRIBED HEREIN.
So no. You are held responsible for breaking the rules.
Quote: It is called a collective case.
Doesn't keep them from being individual cases. ùùù ôIf you're not willing to fight for what you have in ≡v≡à you don't deserve it, and you will lose it.ö ù Karath Piki |

Originally by: Whitehound No. Read again. It says "you will be held personally responsible for the consequences"
àof breaking the rules.
Quote: No. They are all on the same list and all are being accused of the same.

Originally by: Whitehound You mean you will be held responsible by CCP for getting a ban?
No. I don't mean anything. What the ToS means is that if you get banned for breaking the rules, it's your fault.
Quote: It is the consequences of what you did!
That's not what the ToS says.
Quote: No, silly. You have nothing that makes one different from the others.
Incorrect. They are easily separated into individual cases.

Originally by: Whitehound He could have received the ISKs from a friend as a donation, in which case the ISKs will still get removed.
"Could have"à maybe. But that's not what had happened in that particular case.
àoh, and he was an ISK buyer. ùùù ôIf you're not willing to fight for what you have in ≡v≡à you don't deserve it, and you will lose it.ö ù Karath Piki |

Originally by: Whitehound It is exactly what it says
Prove it. I quoted the passage you were referring to and it said pretty much the opposite of what you claim.
Quote: This is not what makes them individual cases.
Sure it is.
àin fact, come to think of it: what on earth makes them a collective case, seeing as how they're separated into individual buyers? ùùù ôIf you're not willing to fight for what you have in ≡v≡à you don't deserve it, and you will lose it.ö ù Karath Piki |

Originally by: Whitehound It however does not prove that the player did pay real money for the ISKs or that he knew who the sender was.

Originally by: Whitehound You mean he played innocent and then confessed of having bough the ISKs?
No. He played innocent and then stopped when it was proven that he got the ISK from an ISK seller. ùùù ôIf you're not willing to fight for what you have in ≡v≡à you don't deserve it, and you will lose it.ö ù Karath Piki |

Originally by: Whitehound Oh yes you will be bummed. You only do not know it yet. It does not need you to buy ISKs to receive them from an RMT.
Oh no he won't. After all, as you are so fond of pointing out, just receiving ISK from an RMT is not enough, and if you do, you can still simply follow the rules and thus not get hit with anything.
You see, the problem is if you don't follow the rulesà
Oh, and as for the collective case: they're different counts. Thus not a collective case. ùùù ôIf you're not willing to fight for what you have in ≡v≡à you don't deserve it, and you will lose it.ö ù Karath Piki |

Originally by: Whitehound No. I never said that receiving ISKs from someone who is running bots is not enough to remove the ISKs again.
That's not what I said either. You need to stop with these strawmen because they only prove you have no argument and/or that you have confused yourself to the point where you no longer know what you're talking about.
Quote: So he will be bummed when the ISKs get removed. He may not have bought them, but he did receive them nevertheless.
No he won't, as long as he's following the rules.
Quote: So you do not know what a collective case is. It is all you needed to say.
Yes I do, and that's why I can tell you that these are individual cases. So I'll ask you again: why on earth would it be a collective case.
Quote: You can get banned for what you did.
Again: the "what you did" part is entirely irrelevant. You can get banned for not doing anything as well. What we're discussing here, though, is people being banned for breaking the rules. ùùù ôIf you're not willing to fight for what you have in ≡v≡à you don't deserve it, and you will lose it.ö ù Karath Piki |

Originally by: Whitehound Stop thinking of your strawmen. You better learn that there are no strawmen.
Yes there are. You are one of their prime producers.
Quote: I am still saying that you can get banned for what you did.
What you did is of little to no relevance. You can get banned for anything (including nothing). It is particularly of no relevance when people are breaking the rules, because that in and of itself is grounds for a ban.
Quote: So for example when you make racial remarks and get banned can you not just say that you broke the rules of the game. You will need to say that you made racial remarks.
Not really needed, no.
Quote: Yes, he will and because he is full of prejudices and then gets to experience it for himself.
àand what you keep misunderstanding is that by following the rules, he won't really experience anything.
Quote: I already told you. They are all accused of the same and there is nothing that makes one case different from the others.
You mean apart from being different accounts that pay different amounts at different times? In other words: they are not taking part in the same offence. Each individual case has to be investigated on an individual basis because there is no collective or communal entity or grouping that "the the bad thing."
Quote: A future situation may change this, but for now it stays a collective case. I am guessing you already found them guilty.
Other way around: right now, they are individual cases. After the individual investigations, it may turn out to be the case that a whole bunch of those are the same guy doing repeat offences, or that they somehow put in a group order and divvied up the cash (but good luck on proving that one). Only then can anything remotely resembling a collective case be constructed.
Quote: Wrong again. What you did or did not do is entirely relevant, even when you only think for yourself of what you did as breaking a rule
Seeing as how you can get banned for nothing, it most certainly is relevant because if you break the rules, they can justify the ban by saying that "hey, you broke the rules". ùùù ôIf you're not willing to fight for what you have in ≡v≡à you don't deserve it, and you will lose it.ö ù Karath Piki |

Originally by: Whitehound You are joking, right? Are you telling me now that you do not think they are guilty? I thought you were one of the lynch mob people.
That's just one more of your legion of strawmen ù something you've invented for yourself so you can yell at people.
And if you ever want to actually say something, I'll listen. You refuse (because you have nothing to say, because you know you have no argument and because you have been proven wrong on every single thing you've claimed), so there is nothing to listen to. It's up to you to change this.

You say this a lot. It's never been true so farà
If you actually backed up your claims with arguments, rather than abuse, and if you provided examples and proof, rather than innuendo and strawmen, maybe people would listen to you.
