This Timecode malarky has gone on long enough, there is an insane amount of people selling timecodes on the sell order forums for isk, whats even more insane is some of these people have threads that go up to several pages long with buyers saying stuff like "thank you for the 90 day timecode, thanks for the years supply of timecodes, etc" for many pages.
Does anyone ever stop to think that the person selling these timecodes must have invested thousands upon thousands of dollars into timecodes and is obtaining insane amounts of isk that probably go into the many TENS OF BILLIONS?
This leaves so many questions about why they would spend THAT much real money on a game, but im not going into that, the question is why does CCP allow it? I've already said it, people are abusing this to the point where they are cashing in their real money into obscene amounts of isk, the likes of which most players will never get anywhere near, these people could be using the 30 bill they get from timecodes to buy high profit t2 bpos, these people are CHEATING EVE and CCP dont care.
Timecodes for isk needs to be stopped.
first off... I didn't take time to read everyone's comments, but the OP is 100% correct. they need to stop any and all forms of timecard selling. for the sole reason that its an out of game business for them.
those investing thousands in real cash to sell cards simply make billions and in return visit the little seller fourms market and outbid any real player that put in time and effort to try and get a t2 bpo. they then take their newly found t2 bpo and make billions more... sell off the isk on ebay... and pocket more cash as he laughs on down the road.
its outright sad to see this happening, especially in front of all the hard working eve players that put in real time, hard work, devotion, and CCP then bends us all right over and lets inexcusable **** like this happen. shame on you CCP. and then you can't even fix your insurance bug and pay off one of our members, a long time eve player. what he deserves. buts thats a whole nother story.
CCP wins the decades "hall of shame" award.
