2. I would like to discuss the terms on splitting your profit with me to raffle off some of my in game assets.
3. I will also would like to offer my character to raffle once all my assets are gone. We will follow all CCP rules for transfer once the raffle is over.
4. 1 Black credit for the raffle will be given out for every GTC bought on your site. You can hold the raffle once 1000 GTC have been sold. If players would like to buy a ticket in game it will cost 1 plex and you can have them contract it to you.
5. This practice has been ok'd and does not break the EULA according to CCP.
I am doing this to re-capture some of my money I have spent on EVE over the last 7 years and look for another game to play. This is not a joke and CCP has left me no choice. I suggest that everyone of you look to sell your stuff in this manner before CCP cracks down.
So if you are a third party seller of GTC please send me a eve mail with your percentage offer let the bidding begin.
Yeah one problem with your 'game'. Markee Dragon, to whom you're obviously referring, isn't a wholesale GTC seller. He's a reseller and he buys his GTC's at a wholesale company (not a lot of which exist as far as I know).
But yeah, should be legal. If SOMER can do it so should everyone else. Will be fun seeing CCP's reaction if more of these things start popping up all over the place :D

I'm not saying you're outright wrong, but you are definately not presenting a scenario that is certain to be a 100% match to the (unknown to most) chriteria that said site has met in order to get CCP approval for their methods of financing their website.
The circumstances that we are aware of are:
1. I can spend money at a specific site and indirectly receive in-game currency in return from a second site.
2. There is no single party directly receiving the money AND giving out the ISK.
Any business that uses the same setup would also have to be legal, plain and simple. But like I said, I highly encourage people to take advantage of this loophole to see how much it takes for CCP to step in and admit they ****** up with SOMER.

Since when did this become possible?
If they get maybe 5 to 10% of every GTC sold through Markee they would earn a minimum of 50 bucks a month if only one GTC is sold per day. Since that's probably not the case, I'd guesstimate they make at least 200 bucks a month. Cold hard dollars. Minus website costs, maybe 100 bucks?

By converting isk to $ you have just committed RMT..
At no point does Somerblink which thread is aimed at, covert RL Money to Isk or isk to RL Money
They give blink credits in turn for you using their referral scheme.
That's the genius part of the entire thing. Neither of the two parties in this setup directly handle both the ISK AND the real money and thus there is no RMT to speak of.
If you would attempt to do this thing on your own IE; you both sell the GTC's AND run the lottery THEN it would be RMT.
