Ok....I'll be clearer about my confusion:

If I'm a spy, I'm after something, right?

I'm probably an experienced player, right?

Me being a spy AND experienced, I already know what API keys show, and what you would consider a red flag, right?

So then wouldn't you expect me to apply with a pristine toon?

How does my transaction history help you determine whether or not I'm a spy? Is this foolproof?

See above, regarding bad players thinking API can identify spies.

You can easily hide financial data in different ways that won't show on the API where the money is coming from.

Come on man, you know spies play to WIN dude.

You really think paying 30 bucks for a 90-day toon just to build up a credible history ISN'T worth billions of isk or info that will win a huge war???

Even IF the spy has to pay it (which we both know he probably wont;, the Alliance will probably pony that up,it's 30 bucks) it's still worth it. 20 bucks for plex, or 30 bucks for a toon that could net you billions???

My main is a few weeks old.

So you basically just made my point.

Why then does seeing my wallet matter, on a 2 week old toon if it takes years (according to you) to do any significant damage to an Alliance?

Hiding = Malicious intent.

I disagree.

Again. A Devoted spy will do anything to get in. A Devoted spy will KNOW what you're looking for.

Granted, the person hiding COULD also be a spy.

However since the toon with the clean cut trans history and the one who is hiding his could both be spies, what exactly, then, is the point of wanting to check the trans history to expose this intent?

We're going in circles, the earlier poster was right,some folks just take this game WAY too seriously.

Just need to find some laid back folks to play with. I'm not putting myself through a Federal Background check and I'm not joining someone's stupidass forum and sit for 3 months just to apply and play.
If that means joining a smaller Alliance/Corp then so be it.

I get it. That's why I didn't hassle her. I just said thanks and moved along.

Super-Spy, right?

lol.

TEST has basic requirements?

This community never ceases to amaze me.

Why would you be worried about a bad spy?

What corp gives members the ability to do a smash and grab besides noob corps?

You're proving some other poster's point.

I guarantee you, you're alienating 100% more players than effective spies. But it's worse than that it's giving you a false sense of security. If it isn't giving you a false sense of security than why are you even doing it?

I view "noob friendly" as being friendly to noobs in EVE. The goons kill 2 week old characters in retrievers. What you're calling noob friendly I just call neckbearded snobbery.

You guys in a lot of ways are just proxy accounts

You have absolutely no privacy and you know if you even say something out of line, you're in trouble because they actively monitor your emails, your posts, even your chat history.

You really aren't individuals playing the game.

I see it pretty clearly now

0.0 the slavish hordes and the Free Peoples of High Sec with varying levels in-between.

"why dey so scared to give fullAPI??"

Some people don't want to RP as someone else's property.

Continue to compare yourself to 007, nerd

Sure

Oh but you do have so much to lose you just don't know it. Your ego is suffering beneath the surface. Soon you will be sacrificing your sexuality
