I'm pretty sure they ran some DB script looking for suspicious transfers, which are pretty hard to define, and then just removed all the isk said script flagged / banned flagged accounts. IF this is the way they did it then I am very much against this crap. Large alliances with thousands of active people selling ships, contracts and all sorts of services cannot be suddenly hammered to the ground with huge negative isk accounts because some people used rmt isk to buy stuff from them and some dev is using a dumb db script. As much as I support Sreegs efforts to clean the world from rmt if this is the way it is done we are harming people that play the game instead of harming those that cheat. In a sense it is an even worse way for the cheaters to destroy the game if they are able to provoke this kind of random havoc. I would expect someone HUMAN and WITH A BRAIN to look closely at the list of bannable accounts that comes out of these scripts and THINK FOR THIRTY SECONDS about implications and trying to understand WHAT IS REALLY GOING ON. CCP should investigate stuff, not randomly ban people. I may be wrong but if I have to choose between Shamis being a cheater and Sreegs being trigger happy and dumb, I'll go with the one that has more Alliance Tournament wins. There's some love for the game right there. CCP seems to take matters like this pretty seriously. I think you can safely assume that any implicating data generated would be investigated before penalties were assessed. I hope this was a troll.....  CCP has ignored it for years, now they suddenly start banning? Interesting timing don't you think? When did they spend 10 minutes addressing it the past? Just after they get mud in their face due to their favorite Bee having a senior moment in front of the camera. So...not only is the Hive trying Brute-force metagaming, but CCP is gonna give it a try too? "CCP, I know, lets out one of the big RMT groups so that we can deflect attention away from our abject foolishness at backing a failed leader" I can't decide which of the trolls in these quotes I like better.
You know I won this hands down.
Now when is your openness with your with your customers, and your dedication to coding going to catch up with your sense of humor?

The reimbursement guy keeps records that would make the most OCD Corporate Accountant blush. He petitioned it and was unbanned and given his money back almost within the day. |

IIRC, CCP uses a "double penalty" system - they deduct the ISK that you bought and ALSO remove any items that you bought.
So let's say you have a character with 1 billion ISK.
-You buy 50 billion ISK, and then buy a Titan for 40 billion ISK.
-So now you have 11 billion ISK and a Titan.
-CCP catches you for RMTing. They deduct 50 billion ISK from your wallet and seize your Titan.
-You now have -39 billion ISK and do NOT have a Titan.
HOWEVER, the person who sold the Titan in the first place for 40 billion ISK does NOT get his ISK removed (provided that he himself is not guilty of RMT). If the botter ragequits with his negative wallet, then the negative wallet doesn't cancel out the dirty ISK that made its way into the system.
You could come to the conclusion that RMT and bot bannings actually CAUSE inflation, then. Not only does it fail to remove most of the dirty ISK, but it also removes minerals from the game. |

This is probably why they've been targeting alliances since it's a bit more difficult for them to simply "quit", especially when Sov is in the equation.

This makes perfect sense, thanks. So, alliances that do this just have a dummy alt that holds all the isk so if anything happens, then their main alt is not affected. Hopefully, CCP banned all accounts they could find that are associated with the money holding alt

Correct me if I am wrong, but CCP isn't removing ISK from alliances directly. They are removing ISK from the wallets of the alliance's MEMBERS. Yes, leaders may find it a bit harder to "simply 'quit'" as you put it. But the rank-and-file? They can (and have) quit when something as soul crushing as a negative wallet comes their way. |

Oh look, a PL toon who's only "argument" to the accusations levelled against his alliance is to resort to insults and abuse.

I'm not sure what country you're from, but in most modern countries accusations need to be leveled with some form of proof to be taken seriously.
Try this:
I heard your mother is a hooker.
Now the thread can safely devolve into a discussion about her going rates, and the burden of proof is now on you to show us that she is indeed not a hooker. |

Confidentiality also applies. There quite probably are members in corps and alliances (PL included) where they might have only bought once or twice to not fall behind. Possibly RMT is quite frowned upon. So they suck it up, nobody knows and play legit from then on. Those in the wrong can petition and evidence is between the fined and CCP. None of our business. Botter accounts are another matter though. |

Sounds like it's just a system that doesn't allow appeals. Or CCP is extremely careful about whom they Ban for RMT. I personally will believe CCP over anyone claiming they are innocent, for I am sure CCP takes this seriously and does not want to net in the innocent with the guilty.
what theres an appeals process for bans in a game whre they have the right to ban you for anything they want? I thought the only course of action for that was walking away.

But even if it was true, how can you do so much trillions of isk out of high sec? Missionbots. One nullsec region can support maybe 2 bots per system, but usually just 1. A busy mission hub system can easily support 100 bots - and it's easy to see that many of them do so if you go and look at sdfadfg1, sdfadfg2, sdfadfg3, sdfadfg4, sdfadfg5, sdfadfg6 and of course their good buddy sdfadfg7 undocking Tengus in sequence.
I keep trying to tell people, this is why there is a Great Wall of Carebear with bears and bots on BOTH sides. The 0.0 bots are actually safer, considering how many hundreds of macks and hulks get popped via the suicide gank.
Do people man those gank pipelines becuase they are truly rollplaying pirates? Even the serious RP crowd is hard pressed to find time to be that thorough as to guarantee the "you go there you die" factor.
Is it bored players? They are in lowsec or ganking bots in high.
Could it be the hardcore neckbeards replacing sex with KB stats? I don't think even neckbeards are that devoted and if they were that horney they would shave and put on a clean shirt and go out.
No, it's MONEY. The only way to get that much gate camping and blobbing going to be as reliable as we see it in this game, is for there to be a monetary motivation for it. Think about how long it takes for a few people to do an open source software project that goes anywhere versus how rapidly and advanced a DARPA-funded project goes. Would you work on software 18 hours a day for free? Nope. For a big haul of cash? Most people would.
That botting, and hence RMT, means a LOT of money, the motivation to shut nullsec out is coming from money. And those who still want to go have to either join the big alliances that bot and RMT, OR become a renter from such entities and pay them more ISK.
I would not be surprised if Hilmar found a horse's head in his bed considering how much money is involved and the kind of RL crime organizations who are already adept at laundering money gotten from "other than normal" means. I hope CCP employees are well armed and trained. (Any who are not I will train for free, btw). |
