Screw you. Enjoy your ban.

I guess this means every corp and alliance out there with the NPC entity "Legion" in their name is now due for a false representation petition. |

Maybe they were scammed or metagamed before. Well someone far back when they wrote the original tos
They just forgot to clarifiy that they intended no scamming, until someone figured it out just recently.
You know, that means EVE Online has been misrepresented to us. Petition eve online There are no goons. The goons' 0.0 dream is over.

My group, GS Recon, hilariously puts "Blawrf McTaggart alt" in their bios to impersonate me and insinuate that the much vaunted and esteemed GS Recon is simply one man poopsocking many socks
my question is thus: is my squad gonna get banned and should i start recruiting :(? |

GM Karidor wrote: What needs to be kept in mind regarding impersonations is that all characters involved are seen as their own, independent entity, which effectively means it's quite possible that a situation may appear where a player impersonates his trustworthy main character using an alt character located on the same account. As there is no in-game way to verify whether or not certain characters are located on the same account (the API needs the key and external tools to be read properly, so that one doesn't count here), this case would be handled the very same way as the impersonator character being owned by another player.
Hi, I'm Mr Omniblivion.
This is stupid. The in-game way to verify whether or not I'm actually Mr Omniblivion is to invite Mr Omniblivion into the conversation to confirm. Or to check my alliance title that says I'm Mr Omniblivion (via the Exec Corp of the Alliance). Or to check the alliance Description that shows that I (and Mr Omniblivion) are both characters to contact to rent. Or by checking either one of our in game profiles where we link the other character stating that they are alts.
There are plenty of ways to verify authenticity- if someone is too lazy to do any research whatsoever, how can you hold the other party at fault?
How could this be a serious rule - about all characters are seen as their own, independent entity - yet you can suicide gank in empire down to -10.0, and then after a few hours of ratting in null be friendly again with CONCORD. I mean c'mon, if we're not allowed to say we are are own alts and there is "no in-game way to verify", then how can such an un-realistic mechanic be allowed to exist? We're going for realism here, right? Each character is an individual that has their own independent interests, right?
I think this is just poor explanation of the rules. GMs say that it doesn't affect scamming, but then the "definition" clearly bans pretty much every type of scamming. Then to expand that to honest representation (for those of us that don't scam)- that's ridiculous. |

If this is supposed to be a GÇ£clarificationGÇ¥ rather than what it actually is (a massive change) and the TOS has actually always said what you're saying that it now says, then what needs to happen now is not any more clarification expansion, but rather an actual change to where it says what it has always actually been enforced as.
Even if you're going to go with the cop-out of GÇ£yes, [i[technically[/i] this or that will now be against the TOS, but in application we will obviously never do that because that would be stupidGÇ¥, what you're actually saying is GÇ£the TOS is stupidGÇ¥. So rather than clarifying it, what you need to do is change it to beGǪ not stupid. 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¥

For additional yelling, may I direct everyone to the bottom of CCP's website?
It has contact numbers for various offices of theirs. And skype is cheap.
Also, this apparent change is the most pants-on-head ******** thing I've seen all week. And less than 24 hours ago I literally saw someone put their pants on their head. |

I MADE THE FOOLISH MISTAKE OF BELIEVING MYSELF AND NOW I HAVE ALL MY PHAT LOOT INSTEAD OF ME :'(
should I have used a courier contract? I'm pretty pissed off with myself for scamming me, I think myself should be banned but I don't believe I should be.
How do I legal? I like bashing this stupidity as much as the next guy, but lets have some common sense for a minute.
The clarifying post clearly clarified that the person in impersonation is defined as a character. A opposed to the player behind it, or an arbitrary entity such as an account.
Lets say Solstice Project makes an alt. [ISMETA] wardecs a corporation. He approaches the corporation with the alt and says "I'm Solstice project's alt, give me 100 mil and I drop the dec". They pay up and contact Solstice about the transaction. He says no, that's not my alt you got scammed.
What the nice GM is saying is that it does not matter that the alt is in fact the same player, or even on the same account as the main character. He falsely spoke on behalf of the main with malicious intent. So the alt gets a name change and a time out. |

Presumably CCP staff can't play the game anymore? Because they were always allowed to on the basis they never really told you who they were .. but now you're not allowed to do that. Or are they allowed to play the game with a separate set of rules attached?
Either scenario is rather ****** up, BTW. "Do not touch anything unnecessarily. Beware of pretty girls in dance halls and parks who may be spies, as well as bicycles, revolvers, uniforms, arms, dead horses, and men lying on roads -- they are not there accidentally." -Soviet infantry manual, issued in the 1930 |

I would like to apologize to the person who bought Oura Madusaari from me. Sorry to make your life difficult.
Actually I take that back. I would like to express sympathy with no admission of association or liability to the person who bought the character formerly known as Oura Madusaari from the previous account holder of the character, whomevery that might be. |
