Except for Chribba's brief remarks, I see that most web hosts are strangely quiet on this. And for good reason.
If the more mouth frothing anger management deficient among you get your way and CCP decides you are right that any income is RMT, say goodbye to your kill boards, news sites, blogs, market sites and character sheets. Anything that relies on click-throughs and affiliates to cover hosting costs. Be careful what you wish for, people. You might just get it.

Why stop with an ISK incentive?
You could always give a discount for bulk purchases or one of the other incentives that are common with the resellers. This Somer hate is going to (has) open a can of worms. I look forward to seeing how the 3rd party landscape looks when the dust settles.

Especially since the E-mails talk about a May proposal and it would be..... August.
Smoking gun?
Oh...you're good.
Tell me. Do you work at infowars.com in real life? Alex must love you.

Connecting those two facts, Somer runs a gambling operation, which is heavily regulated about everywhere. There could well a lot worse coming to Somer than an in game ban... It only take a motivated prosecutor wanting to make a name for himself in whatever county he operates...
I'd love to see that trial. The state vs gambling pixels for pixels player group. Though if it was my country I'd be a little upset at the waste of taxpayer money on such a farce.
You people really need to ease up. Most of you don't seem to even know why you should be angry. You just like raging and make up stuff to get noticed on the forum.
I see about six people that actually understand what Somer is doing. The rest of you just make me laugh.

I think the CSM concept is flawed and was implemented for all the wrong reasons.
That said, I'll not **** on the individuals that seem to be doing their level best to do what you all voted them into the CSM to do. If there's one thing the majority of the forum community is good at, it's shooting the messenger.

I find it very telling that you have no idea how small this community is. Everyone who has been playing for a while knows everyone else and are often on a first name basis with them.
All the tin foil in here makes my teeth hurt.
ed ~ And Somer is anything but a 'simple reseller'. He's a major contributor to events large and small. From fanfest to EVE Vegas. Of course, the marketing dept would be very familiar with him.

You're doing fine in here already, Andski. No need to fall back on willfully misinterpreting posts for forum fame.

Of course they are a one time redeemable code, but was sommerblink buying back the code, or making the player redeem his code and transfer a plex via contract to sommerblink? If sommerblink was simply buying the plex code, this could be used over and over again.
Well, since Falcon said that's not the case you can put it to bed now and find another conspiracy to champion.

I am aware of the fact that CCP uses this argument but it also means that people like Somer will keep trying to outsmart them and keep looking for loopholes. Add to it how easily was he able to get away with his last scheme and you are set for a s**tstorm we see now.
**** storm?
You must be new. You obviously have no idea what a real forum **** storm looks like. This is a mild whine.

People got what they wanted.
But it won't stop there. I'm guessing at least another 20 pages before this peters out.
But if you people want to have some real fun, visit some of the resellers and check out the incentives (read: RMT). If you rage enough I bet you can get at least 3 or 4 of them shut down. You're on a roll people. Don't stop now.

"New Promo - Your business counts!

So there's no comparison there. How is that any better than what Blink was doing? Buy a bunch from our reseller get some isk free.. If what Blink is doing is RMT, then so it this.
It's not about what they're doing. It's about who hates who. No one hates Eve Time Code...yet

Dinsdale Pirannha wrote:I am curious what percentage of plex sales went through the Somer-Blink website, and what kind of impact this will have on sales of plexes.
I imagine the goon Pravda site will pick up some slack, but Markee Dragon (or however you spell his name), must be scrambling today.
Markee has his fingers in a lot of pies. I doubt he's scrambling over losing an affiliate that likely gave him much less than 1% of his total sales.
