Who are unlikely to do much. A sub is a sub.

I ask because in many of the posts here it is stated that CCP likes the bots because they pay for a subscription (indirectly, via PLEX), and hence their elimination would hurt CCP's bottom line. " With this reply: CCP Sreegs wrote: The first question is one I haven't FULLY researched but the general consensus is that removing bots actually increases CCP's income because we have more happy customers. The idea that we would want people to bot for $15 is a false one, though I could see why some people would leap to that conclusion. The first question actually is not that at all. It would have to be is a macro that repeats a message in Jita once every minute or so a bot, or just a macro. Where's the line and is it bannable? If so, the real question is why doesn't CCP act with so much overwhelming evidence that has been playing out for years. Sreegs has never had a Jita local chat actually been free of bots to test this "happy place" hypothesis. Seems like just a random motherhood statement. The OpEd answer is that CCP would never ban hammer a large percentage of their user base. Too much money to lose over a fairly minor irritant. Yeah, they might slam a few to "make a point" but not many. And not this 79K number being bandied about. Bottom line, learn to live and love the Jita spam, CCP needs it.

Maybe you should stop posting without having some idea what you're posting about, no? Maybe if you can't work out the difference between RMT having an impact on the coffers of CCP based on the PLEX alternative and Jita contract spammers then maybe you should disconnect your PC from the internet, bury it in a hole and cover it with quick dry cement, no? Maybe you will stop posting for the common good as well, no?

I'm surprised the ISD volunteers did to be honest. The OpEd says unless there's a mess to be cleaning up they won't be commenting anymore either. CCP needs every sub it can get, and as Jita spamming is not like RMT and botting we are stuck with it.

Jita spammers aren't selling their evil spam to RMT'ers so CCP doesn't lose money, they only make it. Player "happiness" doesn't count for much in this instance as people are going to travel to the trade hub regardless.

Well the client does the initial "collecting", if that's what you mean. Then it gets put it in a database that I run queries against. So if the question is, do I have a bot/macro/software that intercepts the chat traffic? No. It is all collected with the regular client that both of us use. /c So was this a 23.5/7 operation? You did this every day, day in day out? You logged in just after DT every day?
