Originally by: Ban Doga Does that mean if I accept a courier contract with 5 billion ISK collateral to transport something to Jove space I can get that reimbursed? How about a transport to a player outpost that I won't get docking right for?
Courier missions to player outposts CAN be completed using normal game mechanics. You have the ability to avoid the scam using regular game mechanics. No refund!
Selecting a courier contract to a station where you do not have docking rights is no different than selecting a contract where you do not have sufficient cargo capacity. Just because you personally cannot complete the mission because of your personal limitations does not mean that the contract cannot be completed through the use of normal game mechanics.

Originally by: Ban Doga And you are saying this in your official role as a GM of EVE Online?
I would be happy to help you test this policy. If you want I will create a courier contract to a player owned station with 5 billion ISK collateral. You can then file a petition and document the results for us all. Of course, in order for this to be a realistic simulation, I would be unable to return the collateral without GM intervention.

Originally by: mkmin Well, it's pretty awesome that you just told hackers how to get away with hacking an account and not be punished. Love a policy that favors real world criminals over your paying customers.
Just because the victim doesn't get a full reimbursement does not mean that the hacker goes unpunished.

Originally by: mkmin a hacker just has to distribute the stolen assets to his alts through market orders. Read carefully what is said there and how gaping holes are left.
Those alts receive the same treatment as the main characters. The trail will be followed. At the end of it, there might be an RMT transaction where the buyer loses the ISK he bought and gets away with a negative wallet and a warning, otherwise, every account along the way is banned. This policy change has no effect on what is done to hackers. Those policies remain exactly the same as before.
The policy change only affects those who are careless with their passwords. If you lose your password, you lose your stuff! If you keep anything after your account gets hacked (ie you installed a key logger on your computer, use the same password for something else, gave your password to a "friend", etc) then count yourself lucky that you didn't lose everything as a result of your carelessness/stupidity.
