I think CCP should publish statistics on accounts banned.
I'm not wholly convinced that their heart is in stopping the problem.
I would love to be proved wrong though.
Take my word for it, nothing brights up a day of a GM then to ban several accounts who are all involved in macro mining and isk selling.
I actually half expect them to do an evil laugh too.

How do you spot them?
Why kill them if you can nab all the loot from their cans?
You can if you petition them first.
If you petition them as possible macro miners you can then proceed to rob them blind.

Some time ago I asked a GM if it could be considered an exploit to steal ore from a possible macro miner without reporting the exploit. The reasoning is that if you do not petition the exploit you are reaping the benefits of that exploit.
To prevent the exploit of an exploit you have to petition the person you are stealing from.
A while ago a dev/GM ( dont remember which) admitted being somewhat grateful to orethieves because they petition the most macro miners.
My post is not about supporting oretheft, it's simply that as long as you petition the macro miners you can continue eve life as usual ( stealing ore in this case) without the fear of being banned because you silently profit from an exploit without notifying the GM's

Roles and professions such as 'ore theifs' are absolutely fine, the problem then comes when people are allowed to be singled out, 'because' they have been branded a macro user, cheat, whatever,, without a single shred of proof to support it.
Its absolutely outstanding that the gm/s forum mods promote that.
Possible macro users are only singled out in that if you continue to steal their ore without petitioning you can be warned for exploiting as well.

If you want to know if bumping possible macro users is allowed or not you should Ask A Questions through the website.
I think all is said here and I dont want people to come up with exploitable ideas anymore to take matters into their own hands when it comes to macro users.
There is no need to put your account at risk because you exploited against other exploiters, that is not an excuse that will prevent your account from being banned.
