Is there an overhaul planned for the current system in the near future?
I myself a long time ago has been on the wrong side of a character scam like I'm sure a lot who read this have also experienced it.
On a daily basis I see this happening but have not seen anything in the way of an overhaul to make it secure.
This may have been asked before so apologies if it has but why can't a character transfer be handled the same way as Time Codes are?
The seller opens his account, puts in the character name he is selling along with a price and also the account that is wishing to buy. The buyer just accepts this offer and the isk is transferred to a character also on the sellers account.
Of course this would be done after the initial auction process has taken place.
It removes the the need for the seller to actually do what he says he will and transfer it after he has received the isk.
Just a thought. |

I've never done a character transfer, but what about using a third party to hold the isk? so when the auction is won, the buyer would send their isk to say chribba, then the person selling the account would be contacted by chribba saying the isk is in holding. then when the character is transferred, chribba forwards the isk to the seller. |

why is everyone making chribba do all this hard work all the time?
seriously though, i have purchased a character before and it went smoothly, and i believe all you have to do is submit a petition and the money is returned if you don't get the character transfered to your account. not saying its a bad idea, just wondering if character sale scamming happens often enough to warrent comming up with a new system is all |

Well the majority of the system is already there and running when you buy a GTC.
I'm not a programmer but would hope it could be easily modified to also do character transfers. |
