I an the one, becuase by judging by everyones attitude no one else has done this.
This is a cautionary tale.
I bought 1.5b isk a couple of weeks ago and was merrily ploding along and playing my game. I logged on a few days ago to a -1.34b isk wallet (I bought some goodies with the isk).
Now I can not initiate convo's, I can not do in station trades, I can not put anything on the market.
Be warned that if you decide to buy isk the consequences are kinda hard to deal with and you will be left with 5 options. 1. buy GTC's to bring your wallet back to a positive level. 2. reroll your character 3. mission and rat until you have a positive wallet (keep in mind ammo is going to be a problem) 4. quit eve 5. hope your friends and corpmates will bail you out
I know, I am a terrible person and you are all doing the lmao/rofl thing and that is fine.
I have elected to mission and rat my way out of it but that isnt the point here, DONT BUY ISK is the point. The consequenses arent worth the shiney new toys.

You bought ISK, you deserve to be banned with no compensation.
It is clearly against the EULA (or maybe it's the TOS, can't remember), it breaks the game economy, and it's really wimpy to do. ------------------------------ One more soldier off to war... And one Velator in my hangars. |

Forever.
There is a legitimate way to buy ISK (GTC), and you chose to support the ISK sellers which are destroying EVE.
You are making their spamming attempts worth it.

I bet 10 isk (without reading the OPs employement history) that this is an alt of some anti-isk farmer trying to warn possible customers of said farmers about the consequences. Heck, it could even be a CCP employee.

Well the gtc selling thing don't help the game. Looks like ccp punished him that way. What's messed up is watching the last tournament I kept seeing isk selling websites adds. WTF ccp you advertise something on your site that will get you banned from game? How are people supposed to know it's wrong when YOU ADVERTISE IT!

You guys are a bunch of asses.
He had no obligation to tell us anything, yet he did. He did the crime, now he is going to do the time. I personally appreciate the openness he has shown, as it may help to deter others from buying isk from the illegal sellers.
Just purely based on the fact that he sold isk but came here to announce his mistake I say he should get a second chance, as he understands what he did wrong and now instead of buying his way out of it he is owning up to his punishment.
I think that should actually be the terms CCP gives someone when they remove their isk. They cannot buy GTCs, and they must announce their infraction on the forums if they want to stay in eve. Otherwise boot em.

If he submits his character to my api tool it will expose a negative wallet.

Announcement was made by State War Academy alt, does that count?
Regardless, Im just glad we didnt get another "Hai guys, wear all my isk go. lol." Thread.
If op is speaking truths, gj owning up to it (sorta). If OP is speaker of LIES, well, carry on.

Hah, he'll probably transfer assets to a new character, pocket the proceeds from the sales and reroll the character. 1.5B isk is a lot for a 2 month old char and it may just be worth re-rolling.

I don't know about that. Do you think (honest question here) that CCP doesn't monitor the accounts from that point forward to make sure this isn't the case?
Also, it would be nice if CCP sent out a monthly blotter report detailing the amount of isk seized and accounts banned thru this process.... I mean that isk had to come from somewhere. IP bans should be imminent.

No, I'm not back. I'm just on the forums posting in threads related to farmers to further my agenda against farmers to maybe encourage CCP to become a little bit more proactive in ridding them from the game.
I won't play EVE until I see farmers getting dealt with, and my accounts are timecoded up for years, so I might as well try to improve EVE.

If they had the manpower to do that, they'd have the manpower to just ban farmers left and right. We wouldn't see them farming for months and months and months. That is why I favor a ban instead of negative wallets.

Can you transfer assets with negative money? We've established you can't convo or sell items on the market. ----- Visible Implants - good for so many occasions |

Oh... yeah maybe you have a point. You wanna know how to instigate change? Same why those damn hippies did it in the 60s... get this information out there.

I wouldnt have thought so as a CCP employee would know you have to pay a deposit when accepting a mission, when this chap says he will be missioning and ratting his way out. could just be a begger.

Yes this is an alt
It happened to my main
I am not rerolling my main
I am missioning and ratting until my wallet is in the black again.
I will not buy GTC's to get out of this
and I bought isk, I did not sell isk.
I did not post this for anyones entertainment but as a cautionary tale to those who have considered buying isk from sources outside ccp.

at the end of the day, he didnt mureder someone, he bought isk. Theres a fine line between buying isk and selling time codes, and i bet there are people in here lsating this guy when they have sold the odd time code themselves. no i say, lesson learned, much better than a ban

This is wrong for everything but courier missions. since the original poster mentioned ratting, it is obviously a combat character. Therefore missioning would be combat missions ;)

This is stupid.
Going after individual buyers, the people who like the game enough to spend more of their own money on the games fake currency, when you have whole corporations full of people who are obvious ISK farmers is ******* mind boggling.
