Amen another wonderful post describing the true bug in Eve online.
"We at CCP have come up with a fool proof way of detecting Macro miners and Isk Farmers. First we open a conversation window with the suspect, then we ask " Are you cheating? " If they say "yes" we ban them, if not we move along"

As someone who doesnt mine I support macros cause it drives the prices of ships down because minerals cost less allowing more people to pvp which is what makes eve fun.
If you dont like people who macro mine go shoot npcs and laugh all the way to the factory when you buy your mins for cheap.
and as the isk flooding into the game from the ebuyers pushes the prices of everything else up.... do you still support macro/isk farming?
I Hate Farmers as much as anyone, Hell I'm bowling for them now in a Typhoon fitted with 7 overdrives and a MWD... Alas you strike on a greater peril , The EBAYERS. we wouldn't have Farmers if people wouldn't buy from them... That is the true plague... We need some kind of public accounting, so we can catch these bastards and *****them. Cause we all know CCP isn't doing anything (Either because they don't care, or are impotent).

Truth of it is we need CCP to put the power to police this activity in our hands. Cause we're certainly more Zealous about it and have inexhaustible manpower. What we need is a Fortune 5,000 list of players that recieve large sums of isk. A report done by the central bank of Eve or something.. Legit players will have a history and the Frontmen for the Ebayers will be obvious and we all can afford 3 nails?

What about someone like me who regularly receives large sums of ISK for refined goods?
What if someone decides I'm involved in a "macro" scheme and decides to take it into their own hands?
The system would be too open to abuse for it to be workable.
Yeah well you're in a public corp and most likely have a decent work history so you'll look very non-farmerish. And if some crazies see your name in lights and come after you... You're not afraid of a bunch of armchair Zealots who would most likely baulk at a real war..

Pushing them into a corp will not help the problem.
One thing that will work is to simply keep the chinese players on the chinese server.
That will cut your farmer numbers to damn near 0 (but they will just proxy so ...)
Not really. Most e-bay ISK sellers are British or American. Chinese make up a relatively small fraction.
Ah ha! how would you know that unless you're a customer!
*CCP breaks into the post*
Oveur>Morgana Janan are you a cheater?
Morgana Janan>No Oveur I'm not.
Oveur>Good enough for me, Move along now.
*CCP returns control of post*
WTF??
