He has currently suspended the program due to contact with CCP.

He linked his proposal as well: https://cogdev.net/blink/affiliate.rtf

Interesting to not the following statements from it:

"Blink will buy the PLEX from you at a published rate that is the same for all ETC buyers"

"Blink provides no extra ISK or bonus Blink credit for buying through the link."

"We publish a price available to anyone: "Blink will buy your PLEX for ____ ISK!" "

A legal department should have caught the obfuscation with the wording. Obviously whoever approved it did not.

I don't think there's any deception here, The first step of the Workflow contains the message that they intended to use on the service, stating that they intend to give 'the best' price.

'1. Blink messaging: "Buy your Eve Time Codes through SOMER Blink and we'll buy your PLEX from you! No need to spend time flying to Jita to sell-- we guarantee we'll give you the best price!"'

if it's 'definitely' intended to deceive, then you shouldn't have any trouble providing evidence of how definite it is. Surely you have such evidence if things are so definite for you.

Quibble?

What he said amounts to, "It's obvious the world was created in six days, just look around you!"

If it's so obvious, then there will be evidence. Is it quibbling to ask for clarification on a claim made without evidence? I think what you're asking me to do is accept the claim and shut up. I won't. It's not definitely intended to deceive until evidence can be provided of said intended deception. Any accusations or 'verdict' made without that evidence is nothing but a witch hunt. If you want to lower yourself to that level, then that's your problem, but don't expect me to follow on your say so. I want the evidence before I accept that any deception was intended or even made, and you can take your childish attempts to belittle the need for that evidence back to a bible study where they belong.

No, what he said amounts to "notice how this doesn't mention anything about selling way above market price".

Next time, say that with more foot stomping, the tantrum might have more of an effect that way.

Actually that first bolded part would seem to be a flat out lie.

I simply do not understand the implications of this, Why is it of any concern to what somber blink does for promotions?

500 billion isk they are giving out is already circulating in game, and somer has at least 30-40 trillion in just pure profits from a mathmatical stand point.

They run a tight ship, people aren't being scammed, so what concern is it if they give 10 people 50 billion?

CCP couldn't stop it if they wanted to.

The images are linked from external sites, i hope they never enable that feature for monkey class users, but i guess it would be fun to datamine ip/browser info and try and match it to users to detects alts and other fun stuff.
