You mean I am not supposed to try to hide the fact that I collect exotic dancers? |

My boss keep making pranks on my facebook when I forget my phone at my desk so giving him my password would not really change much... |

You mean I am not supposed to try to hide the fact that I collect exotic dancers? It's used to ensure that people applying for the capital and supercapital group actually have those items. The skill thing is used to check if they actually have the skills as well. According to the wiki, it's a simple Yes/No check to a list of requirements.
Makes sense. I don't understand why people think hiding some stuff is necessary. If you are going to play in a corp, whats the matter if they know stuff about your toons? If you don't want people to know about them, the NPC corp accept everyone no question asked. |

Yeah, so well, at least I am not asked for wallet transactions or mail. That's surprising, I realized my market alt isn't in the API system, so it must look pretty suspicious that every month all my accounts get a plex from it. Heh. Then again, I'm also contracting tons of stuff to it and empty all my wallets to it (in Jita), so maybe not.
Unless there is a way to know the account is subscribed with a PLEX, then people could just think you pay for it. Or you mine the isk for a plex. Or rat it. Or scam for it. Or sell ship from the reimbursment program by generating false loss report. Why would people care how you get plexes? Pretty sure they only care about not being a SPAI and not looting the corp/alliance assets. |

Pretty sure they only care about not being a SPAI and not looting the corp/alliance assets. Well what it would look like is Account A receieved plex from Neutral. The thing is sometimes spies get paid, and for whatever reason get paid to their spy account. I have no idea really. The market alt is sitting in some random highsec corp (not NPC). I don't even have any roles either, so really the big issue would be things like: where's the fleet headed how many people in the fleet what ships in the fleet what are they using All very powerful information if delivered in a timely fashion. Like, if you knew the enemy was taking drakes and switched to kinetic resists to fight your tengus, then a load of bombers with EM bombs would wipe them....
I don't understand how people could be stupid enough to get paid on thier spy toon. But then again, reading GD, it's not all that surprising... |
