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?
Sounds like something a spy would say No, but that sounds like something a spy would say, just to seed suspicion and malcontent.
GǪsorry, I've been playing too much resistance lately GÇö everyone but me is a spy (except when I am one)! GÇ£If you're not willing to fight for what you have in GëívGëí you don't deserve it, and you will lose it.GÇ¥

Yup. Hey I know. Make your own corp, don't demand full API, and see what happens.
Yup it happens all the time I guess your the only idiot who gives full apis to people you dont know. Signatured removed, CCP Phantom |

Best idea how to use full api: Make a trade app to help other traders, restricted access only with full api = big profit for the developer.
Or become corp recruiter and sell full APIs to the enemy. It is far easier, if somebody finds a bunch of idiots, who give out their full API of all their accounts, to abuse these full api than actually hunt spies for real.

I once heard a spy say THAT! But he didn't provide anyone with his FULL API, so I can certainly see how he was successful. If only we'd asked for his API, he wouldn't have been able to spy! Fly Minmatar Air --- "Trust in the Rust!" |

I've never had a potential employer ask for this, but I already have my response ready: "Unfortunately, as it's against the terms of service I signed with Facebook, I cannot provide you with my account password. I am sure you wouldn't want me to start my employment with you by violating an agreement with another party at your request, would you?" I keep hoping I'll get to use that response one day. Edit to be on topic: I don't give out my full API, simple as that. If they request a partial API as part of the recruitment process, I create one that gives exactly the information they ask for and no more, and set the expiry for about 5 days. If they don't check it in that amount of time, they don't need to.
Hell TBH If I was really desperate for a JOB, I would gladly hand out my Facebook password, Why? Because your stupid if you put out any RL sensitive information on the internet especially on a social networking site ::lol:: , I'm trying hard not to swear, but people are so dumb. Facebook sells your information to advertising services anyway. Terms of services are meaningless "You will not bully, intimidate, or harass any user." yeah...
This applies to eve as well, I don't mind giving out my full API, and I prefer them nosing about my stuff, while I'm in comms with them. People take this game way too seriously jeez. |

after reading only the title: yes.
one thing I don't understand about APIs is why people still demand them if people can just use an alt for whatever, or just to apply with their alt to join and keep their main toon a secret. |

yes, let's build corps based solely on trust, that has gone well in the past
has to be a bit of trust and a bit of commitment. Full APIs are not much to be honest. No one's going to shun you for selling exotic dancers. |

It's not, her real name is Tippis, and the changing of that last letter suggests espionage.
