Squeeze out those last dollars while you can. This could have been dealt with in about an hour today. Hilmar, or some other delegate of CCP, types a statement in this thread stating that CCP has zero-tolerance for RMT, and any scheme to circumvent the EUALA and TOS will not be tolerated. THEN he can make the comment that CCP is dealing with their lawyers about this. End of story. People would then know that they are coming down like an anvil on Somer-Blink. And if they did not hammer Somer, there will be zero ambiguity in the fact that CCP would then NOT consider this RMT and the floodgates are open for the cartels to do this, as well as anyone else with a ton of ISK, a web page and a affiliation with a plex seller.
I mostly agree with your basic sentiment. Who knew that when the lion lay down with the lamb it would feel so icky?

Don't worry Somer, I'm sure you get some more limited edition ships, or other goodies outta this.
I smell another potential T20. I can't wait till we roll through US and EU prime time. Batten down the hatches, this is going to get ugly.

For all you folks gathering the pitchforks and torches and learning to tie ropes into nooses. Do you expect a single or mass execution? Just Somer or Somer and staff or Somer staff and anybody who has ever done business with them?
damn, that includes me.
Or if you are heading the mob towards CCP are you looking for the one person mentioned in the 'email leak' or their entire staff or (as some of you love to ask for) the entire senior management team of CCP for allowing this to take place? Community and CSM thrown in for good measure, no doubt.
damn I made the list again
How much blood, how many bodies do you need to satisfy your craving for justice?
After all, as the queen once said . . . `Sentence first--verdict afterwards.'
I am not apologizing for CCP, just reminding some that this is not an instantaneous kind of thing. But some of you want to skip sentence, verdict, and leap straight to the execution(s) so anything I say to delay that must be stonewalling and sucking up to my masters.
Calm yourself.
You know how this sort of thing goes. Momentum is what it is. Some people love a good witch hunt.
Having said that; we'd all be a helluvah lot less testy if we weren't addressing the issue of RMT and/or favortism in relation to the same organisation not even 18 months after the first incident. The fact that we are even having the conversation again says that the matter wasn't solved properly the first time.
Confidence in CCP has been damaged because of it. I hope they get it right this time, and set an appropriate precedent that we can feel confident in. |

It's a pity you didn't bother to read the first dozen or so pages of this thread, because if you had, you could have saved yourself the effort of writing this horribly ignorant post.
Somer hung himself by trying to engage in RMT for the second time. End of story. |

Say for the sake of argument you are right (and you aren't). We didn't break any rules to do it, which is the difference. You also completely ignore the fact that have also ushered in a heck of a lot of players from day 1 newbee-dom to hardened bittervet. We're also content creators. Every player who took a chance on EVE because of the battles that made mainstream media, you can attribute to us (and the people we fought against).
But sure, Grr Goons all you like. Doesn't make a lick of difference to what Somer did, and what will happen to him. |

Anything I missed when I skimmed the last 20 pages ?
A lot of tears from the addicts and shills. |
