Hello,
So I have been banned from the GÇ£bulk tradeGÇ¥ mailing list.
I am a newer player, trying to make a go in trading. I have used the mailing list to buy items, I came into some T3 subs, figured I would give the sell a go.
This is the first sell mail that I made.
Legion Subs From: Khalessi Khagah Sent: 2012.12.27 19:55 To: Bulk Trade,
Legion Defensive - Adaptive Augmenter 20x
90mil per unit, lots of 5 only
Dont like my price, make me an offer......
in jita 4-4
Now while I will agree perhaps not the best contextually mail that has ever came across the mailing list, (it is far from the worst that I had seen that day.) I did forget to put a WTS in the title, First time mistake right?
BANHAMMER
Sent W3370Pi4 a mail, and here is the conversation.
ban? From: Khalessi Khagah Sent: 2012.12.27 21:56 To: W3370Pi4,
Why have i been banned?
Re: ban? From: W3370Pi4 Sent: 2012.12.28 01:07 To: Khalessi Khagah,
no respect of the templates
its 150m isk to be unbanned
Regards
Re: Re: ban? From: Khalessi Khagah Sent: 2012.12.28 01:31 To: W3370Pi4,
Is this some sort of scam your running here, trying to cash in on the new guys?

Re: Re: Re: Re: ban? From: Khalessi Khagah Sent: 2012.12.28 02:11 To: W3370Pi4,
Read the rules. with the exception of not putting a WTS in my title, the formating was not any diffrent than any mail ive read on the mailing list.
You have a vested intrest in banning new people to pay the "unban" fee, so that you can cash in on your reputation.
Re: Re: Re: Re: Re: ban? From: W3370Pi4 Sent: 2012.12.28 02:14 To: Khalessi Khagah,
nope i am just cashing in on very hard work that people **** all over without a single care in the world.
i was nicer before and still people dont care.
so i have to be ruthless because in the end , nobody has the guts to make a new mailing list its too much efforts and pays very little or only after a long time.
I have no vendetta against the new people i ban old members aswell all the same .
Regards
Re: Re: Re: Re: Re: Re: ban? From: Khalessi Khagah Sent: 2012.12.28 03:19 To: W3370Pi4,
With respect, im not trying to **** on anything. And i care which is why im mailing you.
If you want a pay mailing list, then make it a pay mailing list. There are alot of people that would pay and use it. But dont use the ban hammer to make isk on the backdoor, you are hurting your hard earned reputation.
Talking with corp mates, there have been a number of them that are in the same situation im in right now. Make a sell mail, and ban hammer 100-150mil to get back on. You are trying to cash in here, its just what it is.
As far as "nobody has the guts to make a new mailing list" there hasnt been a need for one because one already exist that fullfills the need. However with the rampant banning you are killing the hard work that youve put into it.
And that was the end of it.
I did bait him a bit, but he freely admitted to using the banning as a way to make isk off of a GÇ£freeGÇ¥ Mailing list.
If youve had a similar unexplained ban, or story please post.
Also Feel free to troll and flame, usually the best part of a thread

I take you you didn't read the email that was sent out on the list the other day by the mailing list administrator?
Quote:I was previously considering to change the mailing list to a pay to access mailing list
I will no longer do that because the suscribers do not agree with the change
However i will be very aggresive with bans on people who show a lack of respect for the template system especially for the email subjects and the prices
They have the rules of the mailing list in several places all of which are very reasonable and easy to follow.
You broke the rules and the admin banned you. Yes it sucks but that's what happens. You should be happy that he gave you the ability to buy your way back on to the list (a costly learning experience) instead of simply mail blocking you.
If this is what the admin has to do to keep the list running smoothly and effectively they I say good for him. And if players have to pay an 1d107 tax to get back onto the list then great. Chances are the guy makes little to no isk taking the time to have to deal with the list so if he can make it worth his time from the people who can't follow the rules so it can remain free for those of us who do follow the rules then I say go for it man. |

The fines and banning policy has been a rule for like nearly 12 months (based on the wiki history) that you will be fined. Just because the OP didn't read the rules (explains why he was banned) doesn't give him the right falsely accuse someone of scamming.
From the rules wiki page
Quote:Warning: As of the 30th January 2012 failure to follow the templates will result in you being banned without prior warnings, and if you want to be unbanned you will need to pay a fine ranging from 50M to 500M isk.
There are in fact a total of 3 different places on the rules page that talks about fines. In fact the above portion is in RED directly under the section how to write a mail for the mailing list. You can't miss it.
shar'ra matcevsovski wrote: "a costly learning experience"-->worst excuse ever to take unjustified money
Any worse then the excuse you have for spamming the mailing list?
It's a free service. Use it or don't. If you get banned don't use it or pay the fine if you make a ton of money off of it. Pretty simple really.

lol, in fact, nobody was ever doubting that the rules were written down somewhere so many words, to say so little about something that nobody was ever arguing about

The main lesson to learn is that Eve is a harsh universe. Empathy is equally sparsely distributed. Any other forums, and OP may have come across some.
Our attitude is: adapt or die. Those who survive may enjoy a long and bright future :)
More on topic: Notwithstanding minor ethical issues in list management policy and in the described interaction, OP does not have a case. OP has my empathy as she appears to be a genuine new player. In case OP decides to pay the fine, I offer to contribute 50% (directly to the list manger on OP's behalf). Happiness is a warm gun. |

I have an idea! Make the fines be paid to an unrelated entity so there's no conflict of interest.
Avoiding myself a conflict of interest, I could suggest the ISK could be sent to Chribba's VAERT sister fund. Auditing | Collateral holding and insurance | Consulting | PLEX for Good Charity

This is like the dumbest thread ever.
The guys an idiot for banning people and asking for 150m sure, your a massive idiot if you pay.
Just make a new alt and rejoin for free ffs. Given how easy it is to be banned. Make a couple on free slots and give no fucks.
Also maybe as a out of the box idea, next time follow the rules. Don't ask about Italics, just tilt your head. |

That may be true, but it is bringing awareness to the community here of someone trying to cash in. If you get banned dont pay, just like the rest of us. i think that is the general point of this thread. |

Well that's not a bad idea. and i had a thought of starting one myself. However i think it would be better if someone with a good reputation started one up. Like VV, or grendall, or chirriba, or they captain planet combine there powers and start one up. i think there is a need for a reputable trade channel, from someone who isn't so needing of isk.
Truth is i wouldn't have an issue paying a small fee to join, as it does take time to operate such a project. As long as the operator was a reputable person, the rules aren't so draconian, and if your banned your done. No cash back in if you lose.

I never used the mailing list myself.So that said i have never herd of the guy running it.So why would someone with reputation like VV , grendell or chribba who allready have their hands full on stuff do it?
Start a channel , promote it and see where it goes.

I'd like to add something to Flakey's post, mostly aimed at the person he replied to.
One point in common between me, Grendell and Chribba is the attempt at being able to engage in many activities. Because brain wants to create content! I wish I had an army of "executors" to make real what I envisioned. I even got contacted by another MMO dev to help write a new client! One life is not enough.
In order to engage in many activities we need to make the activities easily pre-empted (= easily stopped and resumed) and little time consuming. Managing chats is not the most light task, because offenders may crop up any time, policing should happen within certain acceptable time frames and so on. So, Chribba and Grendell already have to manage their own chats, it's unlikely they may also add another chat where the possibility to have to deal with scammers and policy offenders is quite tangible.

There is no conflict of interest here. You break the rules in the town you are currently in, you pay the fine to that town. You don't pay the fine to a town fifty miles down the road. You don't pay the fine to Children's Miracle Network. You pay the fine to the town that you broke the rules of. No matter what society, group, organization, township, country, whatever, you join, there will be rule to follow, and penalties for breaking them. If there were no penalties for breaking rules, then there are no rules. Lesson Learned: Follow Rules or HTFU |
