Is it just me or is this insane? I know with the limited code they cannot get any real info, but it seems like the certification system would also give them most of the same info. They already have your corp history and age, if they don't believe you can pilot a ship or something they should just have you undock in the ship in question.

lol CEO's keeping people on eve-mon? thats hilarious! Oh don't get me wrong I would never give my number out. I just think it's funny that people even ask for it.
I fail to see how it can help security when most people own more than one account anyway. No one wants to split training time amongst their characters on one account.

How can they find out how many accounts you have?

"If I were a trader, I'd definitely think twice about giving someone even my limited API key."
I am a trader that is kind of where this got started
Wait a second, there are corps that ask for the full API key? alright now that is really crazy. You guys have made many valid points for the limited key, but giving out your full key is pretty stupid.

"Funny how all the people that dont understand why they are being asked for their api key are the carebears in noob corps probably with about 5 miners in them and those guys that have been in an npc corp spinning in their bantam in station because they dont know how to undock yet :)"
You really sound like a jerk. I have done my time in large 0.0 alliances, and I found them a waste. I will take my small corp where I am not a slave instead.
I really am supprised by how many people pay to play a game, them jump through hoops to become someone elses slave. You would figure that if you are spending your time in another universe you try to march to the beat of your own drum instead of being bossed around by someone who just happens to have started playing the game before you.

Fix it really hit the nail on the head for me. I understand a limited api early just to see whats what, but some of these posts are crazy.
And all these people saying "if you want to join a real corp you will have to give out your API" These people are idiots if they think only the large corps are worth joining, I love my own tiny corp, and from what I hear REPO is one of the most fun corps in the game. And nether of us treat our members like slaves.
If people are so worried about security, they need to be more careful about what roles they give out. The corp I am in hardly gives anyone roles, much less making anyone a director.

There are two groups of people in this thread that make me laugh. One group is the "wont give API? stay in empire noob" group. Despite fact that some experienced players and members of some 0.0 corps agree with me. These posters decide to just spam the boards saying that I am a chump for not being in their style of corp
The other group are the "I am a ceo and I use api's to keep track of my employees.." Seriously did you people even read the thread? That has been repeated many times. Try to bring something new to the thread instead.
After reading alot of these posts I have to say the relying on API's seems to be the rule. As opposed to screening people the old fashioned way.
By the way I like how insecure all these people in large corps are acting. They really make a point to comment how everyone who doesn't agree with them will never be in a corp that "gets anything done" or "is important." Get what done? Make important internet spaceships? My corp is important because I am in it and have a blast playing, I don't need some alliance chump telling me what a loser I am because I don't see things his way.

Rondo has a point
Also I have said that I have been swayed to understand the limited API that this thread started over. But CEO's wanting to have fulltime full api access, and the logon screenshots. Those are my beefs now.
