Edited by: Acron Ishtal on 01/11/2006 23:38:23 AN AUTHORIZED TRANSMISSION OF CVA HIGH COMMAND:
Recently the CVA has seen an increase in activity of macro users in our space. While normally we try to keep our space open to all neutrals, macro users are violators of the EULA and are disrupting the game for legitimate players.
As of this posting, any macro users caught in CVA space will be declared KOS and killed without mercy.
Unfortunately a number of corporations have taken to recruiting these players, despite obvious breaches of the EULA and strong indicators of macro behavior. Corporations found to be harboring macro users that operate in our space will be notified of the offending macro user. This will NOT stop us from executing our KOS policy against these players.
This issue is not one we take lightly. Our good will has been abused by flagrant cheaters, and we strongly encourage everyone to take similar stances on this issue. We will continue to report these players and hopefully CCP will see fit to address this issue, but until then this remains our sole course of action.
Thank you.

No offence but do you really think actual proper macro miners/isk farmers read the forums?
Also 95% of the time they tend to warp to safe and cloak the second someone enters local.

Just to be clear this warning is not so much a warning to macroers themselves but to the corporations & alliances that operate in our space and who have been recruiting these people (inadvertently or not).
We will not tolerate excuses on this anymore!

I'm confused by the statement - clarification:
A.It's been established that you will destroy those who harbor macro-using players. That's clear.
B. However in the initial post it was said "macrohunters are violators of the EULA and are disrupting the game for legitimate players" - indicating that any vigilantes that do the job for you are also subject to summary judgement and execution.
Care to elaborate? |

The CVA is the sole dispenser of justice in CVA space 
Corps who harbour macroers are not being attacked however they are being notified of macroers in their ranks and informed that the CVA will shoot said macroers.

First of all ..
Gl with getting those Macrominers banned and GL rooting out the corporations that harbour them.
... however, I can't help feeling that your open space policies are encouraging and assisting macro-miners to setup shop in 0.0.
I have lived in free space before, under CFS rule and I am well aware of the impossiblity to really control who enters and who does not enter free space.
To enable free space you have to assume that neutral corps or pilots are genuine players not there to cause trouble... only when you find out they are troublemakers or macroers in this case can you set them to -ve standings.
It is quite possible that a neutral corp could be macroing for a substantial time period within your space.. i.e under the radar, before you noticed.
How do you respond to this concern?
Furthermore if this problem continues for you or even increases in scale... will you consider dropping free space in order to make sure macro miners are kept out of 0.0?

The answers are simple:
When found, they will leave or they will die.

No. Making it possible for neutrals to enjoy the fruits of our region is more important than stopping macroers CCP should be? are? working very hard on to stop.
P.S. The extra Raven killmail now and then for little effort (catch in travel mode) is nice as well. :P

Indeed that is clear enough....
How severe is the current problem?.... I am assuming quite as CVA thought it worthy of an EVE-Online post.
Also I am quite curious as to how exactly do you go about finding these macro miners.. are they easily distinguishable in any shape or form, when browsing through local? (e.g do they wear funny hats....?)
Thankyou for your responses so far.

We posted this to ensure that there could be no confusion for corporations/alliances (operating in our space) on this issue - particularly as the frequency of 'macroers' seemed to be increasing - which is why we have taken this action.
In terms of the the distinguishing characteristics there are plenty but not going into detail on that here - but the details have been reported to CCP...

I think you mixed something up with that part. Macrohunters are ppl that hunt macro miners.

Some of those corps have wars on them just for that purpose. I know a ceo that allows you to war dec his corp to kill the macrominers while his ppl mine somewhere else.

This term confused me the first time I heard it too
To clarify macrohunters are actually 'macro-NPCers' who are spending 23hrs a day in belts 'hunting'.

It really is terrible. I have been chasing macroNPCers heading to Venal for over 2 weeks now, I can catch a Badger now and then and that's it. They're using every trick in the book to avoid capture(logoffski, double-logging, etc), and there's not a **** thing I can do about it other than set up 23/7 gatecamps. Noobs need to be more vulnerable in 0.0. ---- AUS Corp Lead Megalomanic |
