I think there is no question that the leadership of the Goons and the leadership of SomethingAwful.com are inextricably intertwined and are over-represented on the CSM. It is also obvious that they have the ability via their coordinated numbers to affect the game in many ways (mostly negative, unfortunately). While the CSM representation is clearly an issue, I think that the general player population would think that the economic imbalance between highsec and zero is a much more pressing issue.
Once you realize that groups such as the Goons and certain other "easterlings" are engaged in "botting" and "RMT" to the point that it is practically impossible for new forces in highsec to challenge existing sovereignty boundaries in zero, you can pretty much just unsubscribe, unless you want to just putter around in the market side of the game as many do.
It really is a sad state of affairs in Eve that we have come to. I'm guessing that the real reason we are here is because CCP has given up on trying to thwart botting and RMT and simply surrendered to the idea that they can make as much profit running a game that is dominated by camps of botters and RMT webforces all competing over saleable digital resources that can be captured in the game. Unfortunately, this is not a very attractive scenario for the recruitment of new subscribers. |

Is water wet? Is the earth round? Do you need a citation for these things as well?
Are you really this dense and slow, or do you have an agenda to cloud the issue? |

Eternum Praetorian wrote:Anything that is wet can be dried. You can dry a wet towel. You can dry a wet floor. You can't dry water, therefor it isn't wet. The definition of wet taken from dictionary.com is wet: moistened, covered, or soaked with water or some other liquid. You can't do that with water because it's already a liquid. Wet is a result of water touching it. Water in and of itself is not wet it may be soft and pliable but not wet. If water gets on my shirt then water wets my shirt. I dont have wet on my shirt. Wetness is a result not a description of water.

Don't worry about them Eternum. At least I see what you did there.  |

Thats funny. No direct evidence.....SO which RMT site is yours?
QFT !!
The general population of Eve is not fooled by the pitiful attempts of Botters and RMT riff-raff to cover their tracks and obscure the issue with demands of item by item proofs of what is patentely clear to any thinking player. The fact that many specific items for sale on the web, such as capital ships, rare items and the sheer volume of resources made availble for sale is bona face evidence that Alliances are involved because of the effort level needed to supply them.
Isn't it funny how the roaches in an infested house scurry for cover when anyone shines a light on them. |

Just for the simple fact that you can purchase a Titan for RL money means mean this is true since you can only build a Titan in Sov Space.
Do we know which alliances sells Titans for RMT no.
So whilst we know that RMT does exist in all area's of space, including space which is owned by null sec alliances, we do not know who is involved.
What doesn't help is that I have not seen one member of the CSM actively come out and slam CCP for there apparent lack of action against those who are involved in RMT.
This also does not help the belief which is held by many that the reason the CSM do not actively campaign against RMT is because they are involved in some way shape or form.
There are quite a few measures that CCP can take to make life a lot harder for the RMT merchants yet for whatever reason they seem very reluctant to do so.
Again people think, rightly or wrongly, this is because of fear. CCP are aware who is involved and are scared of possibility of losing a large amount of null sec players if they punish those involved.
Which ever way you swing it, RMT is an issue in Eve and part of it is based in null sec and CCP either know who is involved and are turning a blind eye, or they are simply inept.
Either way, it is not good.
