If you invite a friend and elect to receive a plex card once they have gone active then use that plex's to activate another account and keep using plexe's to activate accounts. (Presuming that all of the accounts are yours allowing you to access the 3 buddy per month per account) You will end up with an infinite amount of the Cerebral accelerators that sell for 400Million isk in contracts. it also allows you to have an infinite amount of characters 51 days old which can be sold on the eve character bazaar.
I see this as exploitation if you never intended to pay for any of the accounts cleared. More sophisticated players may even be able to use different IP addresses and further mask their scheme. This is unfair to the players that pay and the players that play to make isk and keep their accounts active. |

Those are facts to consider but the bottom line is, I can prosper greatly from this which means that it is possible for others to do the same weather they choose to or not. I have never heard of a rule limiting the amount of accounts any person can have but the reword is intended to attract new players and income for the company. Miss using this would be outside of the intent of the creators and could be exploitation.
If CCP say Go ahead then Lord God Almighty! I'm going to have a lot of those God Damn Things!, but like I said. I pay a lot of money and I would prefer they be limited to their original intent.

I would doubt that i was the first to figure this out. The question is, is this fair to the other players? |

Is there an Unfair advantage in having unlimited accounts up to 51 days old without playing and access to these assets. And is this fair to CCP. I'm Sure they didn't make this possible so I could kill a few hours pumping the server full of accounts for my own amusement. |

Can I get some DEV input on this. A yay or nay. There is more complications that I haven't mentioned here that I am reluctant to take advantage of because of the unfair advantage factor. I would prefer that is be disallowed myself but I'm not going to be left behind if it is ok and be the only one that doesn't take advantage of this. |

So far every one of you has missed my main point of concern. I am reluctant to mention it because it would undermine tremendous effort I have all ready put into the game. I don't like the idea of free spy alts, 51 free days of game play, the ability to infiltrate enemy corps, unlimited cerebral accelerators or any other advantage that the character would give you but there is one more thing that REALLY bothers me ALOT. This would be worth my time to spend 1,000 hours creating 100,000 accounts only to delete them hours later. That's my problem and I don't want to do it because it doesn't sound like fun. But I can't let someone else take the advantage and miss out myself. That's why I would like a lil DEV input to potently fix this problem and let me get back to playing or give me notice that I'm ganna need to stock up of coffee... |

At one point I tested this and it worked. That is my concern because activating an account requires payment or a plex. |

Has anyone tested this recently?
It used to be clearly written in the account information that cretin things were not allowed until the account is activated by payment OR plex. |

I Absolutely agree that is it a good idea but, I want to see something in place to prohibit exploitation. Such as a player that creates accounts that he never intends to pay for. |

Well I'm just going to put it out there. The most bothersome thing about these free active accounts it the holiday and anniversary gifts from CCP. A onetime gift that is intended to be rare and collectable is now at the discretion of a player to harvest freely. I collect many of these items and it occurred to me that I could have an unlimited amount of anything I wanted making them nearly worthless. It also allows a player to flood the contracts market with scams which will eventually generate free income and undermine the player driven market. |

"As with all item giveaways, we intend these items to be a nice bonus for people actively playing EVE. Therefore, we will be vigilant in monitoring creative attempts to farm these items, and take action on a case to case basis."
And there you have it. |

It's clear that most of you can't or don't read and/or don't comprehend anything I say. I lost most of you with the second word in the title.
I do however find it amusing how confrontational and aggressive some of you are towards other players. It's like you're trying to verbally PvP on the forums themselves. And, if you can read then read the last thing I posted.
It is considered and Exploit so don't do it.
Now please, stop posting and let this thread die... |
