Cpt Fina Mutually Assured Distraction	Posted - 2007.11.12 19:50:00 - [1] I don't hate farmers/macros/isk sellers/isk buyers at all. Hate is a very strong word m8 and should be used with care. I do however dislike iskbuyers a great deal. And don't consider any of their achivements in-game as valid. The farmers merely trying to meet a demand that already exists and earn some money from it.
Cpt Fina Mutually Assured Distraction	Posted - 2007.11.12 20:01:00 - [2] Originally by: Pitt Bull CCP is behind the ISK selling, and if not, they are terrible at enforcing their own EULA... CCP probably gets half their subscription income from the farmers. The farmers are making more money than the employees at CCP Got a link?

That was a year ago, and no it does not account for banned accounts. At the rate that accounts are banned, if 5,000 of those in my notes were banned - that would be an astonishing number to me. There are some 450,000 accounts (give or take) How many are REAL people? Think that one over... Like to know which criteria one has to fullfill to count as a farmer to you. I started to count 6 months before you did and I don't have any proof of anyone being a farmer. Think that one over...

Even CCP have managed to ban some. Even CCP managed? I'm sorry that I didn't realize that even CCP with their inferior methods of collecting data and intel from the database compared to the common customer in any way can efffectively identify farmers or justify bans on their accounts.

Even proof is not enough for a fanboy. Look at other posts where I have posted proof. In case I claim that there are 0 farmers in Eve we've both posted equally reliable statistics. Originally by: Loyal Servant I guess that all of us that hunt farmers in eve in our spare time are just fabricating this? Did I say that? Or am I merely questioning whether your methods are reliable or not? Originally by: Loyal Servant Instead of giving me a hard time... follow the isk like the rest of us instead of telling us we are wrong. Please link or quote me where I claim that you are wrong. You thought you could quote me asking for solid proof, post some numbers without any backup with the apparent intention to provide said proof or convince me without me being suspicious? Are you still clinging on to your original numbers and are you able to provide any solid verification or are you going to let Pitt Bull defend his statement? Originally by: Loyal Servant Prove me wrong... Prove us all wrong. Why would I? I havenÆt disagreed with anything in this thread except that I donÆt feel hatred towards Isk-buyers. I have merely asked for verification of a post that contained accusations towards CCP without anything to back it up. ItÆs hard discussing with you when you donÆt seem to manage to understand what IÆm posting, able to refrain from personal insults nor distinguish suitable proof from personal experience.
Cpt Fina Mutually Assured Distraction	Posted - 2007.11.12 23:37:00 - [6] Originally by: Omega Man CCP can change the EULA anytime they like. Till that time voogru is simply asking CCP to enforce their own rules. Was that an answer to my post? If so then I'm not sure how it is relevant to what I wrote. You mean that they can change the EULA so it includes guidelines to how we, as players, are to identify isk-farmers? Please elaborate
Cpt Fina Mutually Assured Distraction	Posted - 2007.11.13 01:21:00 - [7] Edited by: Cpt Fina on 13/11/2007 01:21:56 Are you going to reply to my answer or not? Originally by: Loyal Servant Why would CCP state in another thread they are, and claim to ban them - yet they show in my address book. Have no idea. Ask CCP, I haven't expressed myself in this matter in this thread. Why do you bring it up? Originally by: Loyal Servant That thread was named 'Large scale criminal activity' Add some of those to your address book, and then ask me why they are still logging in... banned? Have no idea. Ask CCP, I haven't expressed myself in this matter in this thread. Why do you bring it up? Originally by: Loyal Servant I did not say it, a CCP representative did. Say what? Are you aware that you are quoting me as I reply to another player, not you?
Cpt Fina Mutually Assured Distraction	Posted - 2007.12.13 00:41:00 - [8] Originally by: Pitt Bull Originally by: Stitcher I still don't agree with the practice, but it's stopped me from blowing up every macro miner I see, because at the end of the day it's taking food out of someone's mouth. If someone relies on playing a video game to feed themselves, I wouldn't lose sleep if they died. Are you going to provide any solid proof for your statement earlier in this thread or is it ok by you if we all start to accuse eachother for various stuff without anything to back it up?
