Edited by: Celestial Divinity on 30/08/2008 14:29:46 I just found a area of space with over 300 hauler pilots moving back and forth though systems like clockwork.
All in npc corps, noone talks, noone accepts convos.
All are transporting agent mission stuff. For example a 5000 m3 brick that a agent tells you to move to another system for a lvl 2 or lvl 3 transport mission.
All the names were random and weird to, Most had names that were not pronounceable and had letters and numbers in them.
For over 300 haulers to collect lvl 2-3 transport missions and LP rerwards Nonstop 23/7. I can't even imagine how much isk they are generating.
This has to be where most of the ISK sellers are getting there isk from.
I have incuded a screen shot of what I saw.
I have also sent a petition in with a link to this forums page.
Hopefully the GM's can do something. but I fear a huge amount of damage is already done.

The economic damage is done when someone buys the ISK they farm. Them just running around is only causing lag but no economic damage by itself. The GMs fix the economic damage, at least partially, when they remove the bought ISK from the RMTer's wallet.
Farmers are just a symptom as are the ISK sellers and the spam. The disease are those people that buy the ISK, creating a market, a environment, where the ISK business can fester.

if you chain them enough theyll spawn battleships.
eventually theres a chance of an officer spawn too.
noone knows what happens after that. probably macro carriers or something. ...in accordance with the prophecy |

We were busy on a CTA when we saw a 'person' ratting. He was ordered to stop by our FC but he didn't but also did not reply. After a few warnings we killed him but his pod did not move so we shot it also .. After 5 min he came back with the same ship and doing the same where he left of..
I reported him for botting, never saw him again since then

Look at their contracts. One of they favorite way to convert LP to ISK is to sell implant sets. Crashing the implant market is not economic damage? -- I'm done whining about AFs, it looks like they are making them right \o/ |

Yup.
The shameless lame cheating buyers are the problem. Without them the rest would go away by itself.

LP store items, mission reward items, and the loot they provide to the people who kill them. To name three impacts on the economy off the top of my head.

Just another nice example in how "vigilant" CCP is in fighting RMT farming. If I had to make a top ten of the MMOG companies who do the least effort in fighting these farmers, CCP comes out on top (not counting the asian grinders though). --------------- Hey, where's my portrait |

its been said before its been said again.
why fight the symptom instead of the disease theyre very active in hunting down and ****ing up the people who buy the farmed isk
and every so often the do have massive clearouts of these farmers. seen it happening myself.
let them grow again, then cut the cancer out.

Fricking ******!!! Just about all those miners are from two corps and only 1 corp has mostly unintelligble names for most/all of its members!!!!!! This $hit has got to stop!!
The problem with THIS pic is that they are mining ICE. They are just selling the stuff on the market as a legal transaction. They only way on this end to stop that flow of ISK buy nailing the buyers. Which is pretty damn hard....unless CCP is flagging ALL these characters and then watching for large isk transfers from these names...

IIRC the safe procedure is to petition them as macroers immediately afterwards.
CONCORD provide consequences, not safety; only you can do that. |

If you get told off for stealing from ice macros, that means CCP acknowledges they're breaking the rules.
So why are the ice macros still there? =\

Every time you kill a macro'er, you increase the risk of him getting fired for not meeting quotas and turning away from that profession in disgust.

last time i did the calculations it was about 200mil per person, per day. So if they have 10 alts they can make 2bil per day.
I also think inguun is why navy megathrons can be bought for 250 mil isk a pop. which is rather shameful. -------------
