RuleoftheBone Minmatar Veto. Veto Corp	Posted - 2007.10.19 09:20:00 - [1] Blah blah blah. I hope if anything CCP are taking a long hard look at who is buying the ISK here. Kudo's to the OP for taking the time to investigate and publish the results-but it's a two-way street. These folks may be violating the EULA and artificially depressing the value of ISK...but who is worse-the supplier or the player who cheats? I don't care either way personally...I shoot both and chuckle knowing that a cheating player is out RL money and the farmers have to waste time getting new ships/cargo/missions/whatever.

Thats great. But what about the players who buy the ISK? And the alliances that do the same? And alliances that harbor such money-laundering types from time to time? Still a step in the right direction. "Lead Me..Follow Me..Or get the **** out of my way" General George Patton USA

And alliances that harbor such money-laundering types from time to time? Players shouldn't have the responibility to avoid authorised (such as to harbour a corp) interaction with isk-farming characters nor should they be punished if they ever fail to detect one. This is all rubbish anyway. I wonder how many pilots/alliances posting in this thread have bought GTC to sell for ISK to fund thier activities ingame? Anyone? Anyone? Bueller? Yeah...thought so. Spare me the self-righteous indignation at the "ISK farmer peril". At least they ain't directly trying to kill me by opening RL wallets to buy characters and other toys Would CCP care to comment on THAT situation? I'm not holding my breath.

My post wasnÆt supporting isk farmers: I was merely trying to stress the importance of not letting their existence affect the common Eve-playerÆs play style. ThereÆs a fundamental rift among people; those who are willing to sacrifice a part of their freedom to gain a little security and those who arenÆt. IÆm sorry if you failed to understand this. I'll be concise (after some research and lambasting elsewhere): It is hypocritical to scream about the "isk-farmer peril" when there is a CCP-sanctioned method for buying ISK via GTC sales. Either way some players will buy ISK for cash to give them a perceived advantage ingame...the only difference being who's real life wallet expands-CCP's or the ISK-seller. It's great that folks care enough about the game to chase farmer/sellers..but whats the point when any idiot with a few extra bucks can buy themselves a top-line pilot/ingame toys simply by purchasing GTC's for ISK resale.

RuleoftheBone Minmatar Veto. Veto Corp	Posted - 2007.10.22 11:26:00 - [7] -The only difference is one method of ISK buying is legal in-game and one is not. -Both methods allow players to buy a percieved advantage ingame. -Some people will play the game...others will buy their way in. To my mind it goes a long way towards explaining the endless CTL-Q actions ingame (who wants to lose real money?). And the never-ending lag and desync petitions cluttering up the system (who wants to lose real money?). Not to mention the comedy-fitted/piloted kills. I suppose through the sanctioned GTC method CCP benefits financially which is a good thing. But did CCP really intend the GTC system to be carte blanche for players with fat RL wallets to purchase an ingame advantage? I'd like to think this was not the case.

So, can you explain why you quoted me in your complaint about GTC-trade? Apologies...I probably hit "quote" for some reason as opposed to "reply".

Clear enough? GTCs support CCP, buying ISK from ISK sellers doesnt. Get that into your head. Which part of my post did you fail to comprehend? Or have you bought a carrier/supercap using OOG resources recently? Shame about the proposed nerfs eh? LOLS and cloaks "Lead Me..Follow Me..Or get the **** out of my way" General George Patton USA
