Bacon Flaps	Posted - 2007.12.04 11:38:00 - [3] i think it's pretty clear that the only way you will ever stop them is to start selling isk cheaper than they do. So...CCP makes 30-day GTC cost about $2, isk sellers move to another game. Total amount of ISK being bought would go up, but we wouldn't have local chat full of isk spam. Not that I think this would happend, nor would I think it's a good idea. But I can't see any other solution.
Malcanis High4Life SMASH Alliance	Posted - 2007.12.04 11:40:00 - [4] Unfortunately, CCP have explained to us that you have to keep looking at their adverts or new players won't join EvE. Or something. CONCORD provide consequences, not safety; only you can do that.
Andromeda Lee	Posted - 2007.12.04 11:41:00 - [5] No one is saying anything cause there all off buying isk and they know im right!, come on im tired of trying to chat or trade and getting spammed by "aswdad" or "hsdjkda" in order to fix the problem it needs to be adressed. to bad eves economy is getting so bad that people are being forced into it to get decent stuff, Example CoreX LAR last year 450mill this year 1bill, FOR A ARMOR REP!, there still the smae steady supply infact there are more of them now, people keep buying isk prices go up.

Aurix Lexico Repo Industries	Posted - 2007.12.04 12:32:00 - [7] Originally by: Andromeda Lee Example CoreX LAR last year 450mill this year 1bill, FOR A ARMOR REP!, there still the smae steady supply infact there are more of them now, people keep buying isk prices go up. What are you talking about? Deadspace loot used to come from static complexes, which could be farmed. This kept deadspace items at a relatively low price. Plexes have seen been removed from the game, thus lowering the supply, and the market reflects that.

Or something. im not sure what thats all about Some of us asked for an option to automatically ignore trial players. This was denied on the grounds, well as I said above.

Yakia TovilToba Halliburton Inc.	Posted - 2007.12.04 13:32:00 - [9] I have to agree this is out of hand a bit. Was trying to sell stuff in Trade->Blueprints and Trade->Ships chat channel and it was constantly spammed with isk sale ads. You block the spammer, shortafter the message is posted again by another char and if you scroll through the channel 70+% are isk seller spams and another 10% are complaints about it ... maybe GMs that are online should have a look on those channels and insta-ip-ban the advertisers
Sokratesz Rionnag Alba Triumvirate.	Posted - 2007.12.04 13:33:00 - [10] If you stop buying their isk, they will eventually stop selling it. Sig removed for the third time, inappropriate content. Sig Locked. If you would like further details please mail [email protected] - Cortes
Freya Runestone Minmatar Brutor tribe	Posted - 2007.12.04 13:39:00 - [11] i made a character on a trial account to test otu some starting attributes a while ago. first thing i did was max out the spam charge to whatever the max is. (think 1mil but i could be wrong) still getting the spam though. :/
Rooker Lysian Enterprises	Posted - 2007.12.04 21:03:00 - [12] CCP doesn't care how annoyed you are, so no, nothing is being done. Trial users who haven't paid anything are considered to be far more important than us paying customers, so we are forbidden to block the starter corps. -- Let Us Avoid Systems Via Autopilot
Shadow Joy	Posted - 2007.12.04 21:20:00 - [13] Originally by: Sokratesz If you stop buying their isk, they will eventually stop selling it. In other words, "Just Say No". Doesn't work for drugs, won't work for ISK sales.
Eizana Amarr Scyanis	Posted - 2007.12.04 21:39:00 - [14] They target the new players with their ISK spam and i bet lot of those guys go and buy some ISK because they don't know any better and didn't read the EULA. There's probably like 2% of people who read it and catch that ISK selling is bad when the start playing. They put up a message about it in rookie help channel, but because it flies so fast by the time you log on and spend about 1-2 minutes checking skill or whatever this message is no longer visible. I see rookies asking same questions as in that sticky message in channel over and over again because clearly they haven't seen or read it. They should make this part of tutorial or send an email like tutorial email that all the new players would get saying "isk buying is bad, mmmk?" because the farmers spam you like right away after you spawn with messages like "buy LEGAL EVE Online ISK" and "make game easier, we're your friends" purposefully trying to mislead new players and lure people who don't know any better to break the EULA.
Valan The Fated Interstellar Alcohol Conglomerate	Posted - 2007.12.04 22:14:00 - [15] Rather than CCP quickly dealing with ISK buying petitions by removing isk and getting some of them wrong. I would prefer them to take a cross section of ISK selling petitions investigate them properly and permanently ban accounts. Not all petitions would be dealt with but the chance of being banded would be a greater deterrent. When I say ban I don't mean recycle the character either I mean ban the billing address and/or card number. Its not fool proof but it would be incovenient for the transgressor. /start sig I love old characters that post 'I've beeen playing the game four years' when I know their account has been sold on. /end sig

In other words, "Just Say No". Doesn't work for drugs, won't work for ISK sales. You're correct. Delete the account of ISK buyers and that carp will stop overnight. The crying threads will also be full of delicious tears. CONCORD provide consequences, not safety; only you can do that.

The crying threads will also be full of delicious tears. Losing a billion ISk or so is annoying and inconvenient. Losing the 30M SP character you ebayed for $200 will hurt.

Kyra Felann Gallente Red Eye .Inc.	Posted - 2007.12.04 22:30:00 - [18] Originally by: Bacon Flaps So...CCP makes 30-day GTC cost about $2, isk sellers move to another game. While this would put ISK-sellers out of business, it would also put CCP out of business.

Shreddog	Posted - 2007.12.06 00:09:00 - [20] Originally by: Bacon Flaps So...CCP makes 30-day GTC cost about $2, isk sellers move to another game. Wouldnt this just result in GTC isk price plummeting? Only effect would be that CCP lose 85-90% income. Actually it would result in more isk spammers since their farming accounts now would be super cheap. I may be wrong though

Stupid business tactic when you think about it. **** off the people whose money you know you have to cater to those whose money you might get.
