As if that wasn't enough, some want full API for all accounts! My situation is rather unique for quite a number of reasons, and I find the prospect of giving out all of my API keys extremely unsettling.
Before you tell me, "you must have something to hide", ask yourself, are you comfortable with random people knowing who ALL of your alts are, what you are buying/selling, and where you get your isk from?
I also don't want to hear about how I fail at compartmentalizing my characters; I know how to transfer items between characters without it appearing on an API. I shouldn't have to act like a spy to get into a corp.
Am I paranoid for not wanting random people to know what color my underpants are before I even speak to them on voice?
Many corps don't do any form of API or background check at all. Lie to the corps that want a full API for all accounts. They won't know it exists unless you tell them about it. It's about time CCP stops catering to the lazy players with this sense of entitlement for fear of losing money. These aren't the people making the game better, these are the people wanting you to turn EVE in to a game that is like most other MMO's. |

This? Not to mention, what is it with people not showing a little self respect? If a corp is going to be anal and elitist, to hell with them. Don't join. How do suppose a corporation would react to a large isk transaction from a character that isn't present on the API, or having billions of isk in your wallet with no transactions showing where it came from, other than through selling the PLEX/DED mods/whatever that you retrieved from the container....
They check it once to make sure you're not a thief or awoxer & they only check it again if stuff starts going missing. What ever gave you the idea that someone was checking on you constantly?

What the hell? People actually do this? It's about time CCP stops catering to the lazy players with this sense of entitlement for fear of losing money. These aren't the people making the game better, these are the people wanting you to turn EVE in to a game that is like most other MMO's. |
