A CCP dev blog posted today has explained that third party applications that can be used to provide an unfair advantage over players not using the application can result in bans. That dev blog was explicitly referring to programs that manipulate the EVE client itself into allowing you to see and do things that you wouldn't otherwise be able to do, in the client.
You are always free to use data gathered from CREST, XML API, SDE, and other services we offer, in a way you see fit. We are offering these services because we want you to use them and take advantage of the possibilities they offer.
We are continuously improving and adding new functionality to CREST, the XML API, and the SDE all the time. We love seeing new and exciting third-party applications! And we want to encourage you all to make more of them. We are holding the API challenge to help foster these desires.
You may be wondering, how we would we react should you discover a way to take advantage of information provided by our third-party services to achieve what we would consider "unfair". We have in the past changed game mechanics to cater around new usages of our APIs in order to level the playing field. We have simply removed endpoints from our APIs in the past as well. These are examples of peaceful resolutions to "unfair" use of our APIs.
We stand nothing to gain by excommunicating players.
Hope these resolve some of your concerns.
Thanks! |
