Divorce & Eve assets

The courts are gonna want to see an API key…

There’s a stupid ass Texas Law joke here somewhere, right?

Dorrim post here is spot on.

You do not have any actual ownership of any items in EVE Online. Under the terms of the EULA, nothing you have access to is actually yours, and since it’s against the terms of service to convert in-game currency into real life currency, whatever valuation may exist is strictly on paper. All of the stuff we all collectively possess in EVE is worth absolutely zero.

Yeah, but she wants half of zero.

Tell her if she sends you zero, you’ll double it.

Give them one frozen corpse.

I will joyfully provide the corpse, free of charge thus rendering it priceless, we can then place it in a very very dangerous system, preferably a wormhole system is a station that is hard to get at with a high likelihood of death and explosions and a great deal of bitching.
Actually, now that I think of it, since real life money transfer violates the terms of service, let’s make the corpse worth twice what you supposedly owe, that way when they aquire it after endless misadventures, they will wind up oweing you. Once that’s done any attempt on their part to pay you becomes a bannable offence and they will be kicked out of Eve for life.

Just out of curiosity…
What’s half of priceless?

Half of priceless hmmm… Now that would be 42.

It’s simple math, Priceless has no definitive value ergo it falls into the realms of the universal question, of which we don’t know what that would be, but the answer is as always 42.

I would repeat myself but that would be repetitively repetitive.

Jump stuff to pochven. Maybe pay for day or 2 pass to do it safely from a major entity there.

Say here you go.

They just have to work how to get it out. Its still 36k…in a bad spot. As many returns to eve found out. Welcome to eve judge!

Liquidate 36k worth of iskies into plex put it in the cargohold of a leapard, and orbit the Uedama gate at 20km. log out and then transfer the acc to your wife with the log in details tell her she must log in to gain control of said acc. The rest as they is history.

There’s a similar thing with units of measurement, if no unit is specified when required, the default unit is elephants.

Eg how many feet is 48?

No unit is specified thus the unit is elephants, elephants generally have 4 feet.

4 feet x 48 elephants gives us 192 feet.

I ain’t gonna argue with an elephant it’s a lot bigger than me.

lol I found that one on stack exchange in answer to some inane maths question where the asker failed to specify the units.

IANAL, but you should file a ticket to CCP telling them the account was hacked and/or transferred illegitimately and then attempt to file an appeal with a judge that can actually pass the bar.

Click bait and BS all in one stop!

My ex tried something similar in my divorce. Tried to claim that the game items I collected had real world value. I simply stated they have no real world value because I can’t sell anything in the real world. Then handed the judge a copy of the EULA and very politely informed him that US law doesn’t apply to an Icelandic company, and CCP claims ownership of everything I have as a player in EVE. He nodded, rejected my ex’s nasty attempt to be a … nm, anyway, he tossed her request for my eve assets. Then made her sell her car and give me half the value because I paid for the payments for it during our marriage.

Divorces can be brutal, and some judges are raging idiots that shouldn’t be allowed to be judges, or lawyers, or work anywhere near children.
