Horrible idea. Sure, scammers can create alts to start their scamming trade over again, but giving them an easy option to change their name and erase all connections to the scams they've been a part of is ludicrous. A character with more time in game has a better chance at being successful at gaining a persons trust than a new character. As it is now, the penalty for exposing your name in a scam is that you have to start over or find victims that don't know you to scam again. This would just allow people to create a single character, and age it as they scam and change their name over and over. The increased charges would mean nothing to a scammer that can take in billions in a single scam.
No thanks.

Originally by: Danton Marcellus Ok next time read the actual proposal before you go off spouting reactionist drivel.
It's been stated a dozen times that there will be a papertrail. If you can't be bothered to do a rudimentary background check on the character you're trading with then you deserve to be scammed and not even him wearing a big red nose with the text Scammer on would save you.
You mean this?
Originally by: actual proposal Their old name is added to a list much like employment history and is easy to find for those wondering where their old nemesis went.
I read it and stand by my statement. Don't be such a douche in assuming the world and everyone in it runs at the whim of your thought process.

Originally by: Danton Marcellus I've seen far too many Chicken Little replies to the idea to be frank. It's been stated over and over on the thread that there should be a paper trail. No-one disputes this yet the sky is still falling some places.
No one except those that do..

Originally by: Danton Marcellus The only thing keeping this down is fear of the unknown.
or rationality from players who've played the game for many years.

Originally by: Danton Marcellus I've been here longer than most, maybe you should check me up ingame. The chief argument for it not being in was accountability. I dare say that ship has sailed already with character sales.
notsomuch.. it still costs the person good money to buy characters.

Originally by: Danton Marcellus Money was never the issue, accountability was.
For people with a reputation rotten beyond repair circumventing the hard coded name, as it stands now to purchase a new character, that's easily financed with the spoils they've gotten from scams and corporate theft.
You're talking in circles trying to justify your opinion.
"They could hire someone to farm isk to fund their ability to buy characters so they can scam other people and use that money to blah blah blah.."
We could go on forever like this but it's obvious this is just something you want, and that's fine. But you're not going to convince me nor anyone else it's for the better.
Let's see if it get's added, CCP has the final word.

Originally by: Danton Marcellus No I'm not, I'm saying the people you're worried will abuse the system already does via character trades. It's just you who are too dense to understand.
So the mafia already has a foothold in the community, might as well give them a government seat? How much sense does that make?
Originally by: Danton Marcellus I and everyone else but you wants this in the game, see how that piece of **** rhetoric work on the comeback?
I love it when people do this. I'd like to thank you, on behalf of everyone else that is, for speaking for the entire population of players. That was a great effort you made to interview each and every one and come to the conclusion that we all, including myself, are on board with you.
I guess we just haven't realized it yet?
PS. You should get out more, just because the 5 people on your facebook friends list agree with you some of the time, doesn't mean the rest of the world thinks with you all the time.

If you don't want people voicing opinions in your thread on a public forum, I strongly suggest you stop posting on them. You can create your own forum, restrict access to everyone that doesn't agree with you and live happily ever after if you want to, Republicans do it all the time.

Originally by: Danton Marcellus Like I said I welcome an argument but you don't have one, you have assumptions grabbed mid air and presented as the gospel and presume to know what my agenda is having disregarded every prior entry on the thread.
If you do have something constructive to add to the thread by all means, I've just not seen it yet.
Wait a second.. which is it? Are my 'assumptions' already established and therefore moot? Or have I not made any yet? I'm getting mixed signals trying to follow your see-saw logic.

Hello there, Danton couldn't come to the boards right now since he got banned by a cerebrally challenged moderator for messing with the head of a troll.
In the light of that I'm not about to continue to feed you but to state that you can't follow logic and you projecting your own shortcomings to further your pointless posts trying to look smart doesn't really work.
I'll be blunt, you may or may not pick up on that? You've lost, your argument was quickly refuted and tossed out, you've since got nothing, present something new that concerns the idea in this thread or move along.
Ah, so you're the trolls alt. (btw, you're not allowed to talk about moderation on the boards)
Allow me to introduce myself, I'm the troll-killer. My weapon? Logic and common sense.
