I was doing some roaming a month or so ago.. checking out some systems in minmatar space I hadn't been to. Hit a high sec dead end system, 40-50 names in local, most, but not all were gibberish names. The number of ppl in local was unusual for the systems I had just been through (between 0 and 10 ppl)
Then I noticed there was an ice belt in the system, so I fly over to check it out.
I see three groups of ships. Each group was 1 orca, 8 mackinaws, and 1 itty V flying back and forth to a local station. (there could have been two itty V's per group, one in transit) There was about 80km between the groups, so they didnt step on each others toes..I didnt see any GSC's in this op.
You could definitely 'bowl' with these groups of ships.. the orca literally surrounded my 8 mackinaws. Each mackinaw hitting a different piece of ice. I didnt do the math.. but the amount of ice they were mining must have been staggering.
I am in a system right now with 74 people in local, I should check out that ice belt...hmm there is no belts in this system at all. They must be macro mission runners
Gibberish names? You mena like xx in front or back or both? or l or 1 or 3 or leet or l337 speak? Yep - get rid of all those kinds of peopkle

There are a lot of clowns that do the name thing.
There is one thing they can do to weed regular players from farmers easily..
The farmers' weakness is their account sharing.
A toon is logged in for a 23 hour period.. every day
And what will you get a farmer banned for? Playing more then you? |

Every MMO has whiners who complain about macros but dont do anything about it
If they bother you do what we did years ago - get in a gang of kestrels and go kill them over and over and over till your forehead is bloody and you give up.
Then leave them alone and dont buy from them
If no one buy sfrom them there is no market for them and they go away.
A farmer who sells their ISK fr a GTC to play for free still gets hard cash in CCP's hands via the GTC purchaser - your not doing the math if you think people playing on GTC's dont buy money in CCPs pockets

Why do I get the feeling that all these 'soulutions' are from people who never once warped to an ice belt and are running off forum propaganda. 
They are from forum trolls who dont know what it takes in a single Mack to mine enough ice to refine to get enough isotopes to run a single large POS
If they knew how much work it took they would understand why people live in the ice belts
