Fair reason enough, but the fact that such a change has the potential to put CCP out of business as well as put about 400+ workers out of a job in the long run, might just be worth breaking that said contract. Though, I don't think its against the NDA for more than one CSM member to say, "Hey, we heard ya. I'm working on it with the rest of CSM8 and CCP. We wanna get this right, even if it takes all night..." |

It was recently pointed out to me that CCP doesn't have to go that deep into the TOS to ban most of you. Read the TOS ... no. 2 and 3 specifically. If all TOS violations resulted in ban-hammer ... how many of you would still be here? Why aren't you up in arms about that?
You get down towards the end of the TOS and it basically says they can ban you or do whatever they want to your account whenever they feel like it anyway. So what's the difference? "....as if 10,058 Goon voices cried out and were suddenly silenced." |

However, if this ToS change has been presented to the CSM first (and I'm not claiming it has), and nobody on there noticed that the wording is stupid and makes a major part of the EVE universe petitionable, I'm not exactly sure if I want them to have any more input in the matter. |

It is, though, considering that the CSM is supposed to be representing the players. From what I've seen from this CSM they are more interested in covering for CCP and shaming players into shutting up about valid concerns they have about draconian changes to the ToS. |

Two huge sources of free advertising for CCP, why is this a good idea now? I think it's good for the GM team who are apparently tired of dealing with scam-related petitions. The easiest answer to that is a button that replies to a petition with this then closes it: Dear (insert scammed capsuleer here), You have been scammed, this is a good lesson for you please learn from it. Do not petition this again. Best, (GM team) You just impersonated a GM.
Perhaps they should give me a job I seem to be able to do it much better than the two who have posted. This post was loving crafted by a member of the Official GoonWaffe recruitment team. |

To be honest i haven't seen too much of 3 genuinely being violated, not enough to put the majority at risk anyways, although flagrant violations of 2 may make it seem otherwise. |

I once safaried a corp by claiming to be Canadian and a pot smoker (srsly, those were the two major concerns of the "recruiter"). Since I don't smoke the wacky weed and I'm not sure they even have the Internet in Canada so I'm definitely not Canadian am I looking at a potential ban? I don't really care much, just my wife is bugging me to milk the maple trees and I'd like to give her a timeframe for when I might do that. This is the rule:-á In Eve it's always a trick. If you don't think it's a trick, you just don't have enough experience to know what the trick is. That doesn't mean you shouldn't launch on that fool anyway and roll the dice. |

Alright, so let's say I agree with you on that...
Do we know CCP is going to use this impersonation clause "a lot"? You would think that perhaps the GMs would use some discretion and only use it in extreme situations ... because ... I don't know ... they are concerned with "consumer good-will?"
Are you upset because they are saying they CAN ban for impersonation? Because then you should be upset because they CAN ban for foul language ... or that they CAN ban for whatever they feel like. "....as if 10,058 Goon voices cried out and were suddenly silenced." |

Ok CCP, at this point, we don't need another GM stopping by, clarifying and rehashing this not a chang change. YOu guys have done a great job explaining it, in minute detail.
At this point, we're telling you the clause is wrong, vague, and overreaching. No amount of re-explaining a bad rule will make us go "Ohh, huh, great idea!"
Now, CCP, what you need to do is actually read this thread, get together, and fix the mess you made.
To Summarize: Your "not a change" is actually a huge change. Your customer base is getting annoyed The fix is quite easy (If everything is the same as it was last year..roll back to last years ToS) Finally, Blawrf is the best yiffer this side of New Eden.
Don't worry miners, I'm here to help!
