LOL. People won’t even accept the GM ruling.

He’s not wrong though to question it… I’ve seen two different answers about the same topic, on trading characters across accounts with no isk transfer… one said it was against forum rules, and another said it wasn’t…
biomass f up chars was always against the rules in eve
but it appears that after ftp is not ( they say)
anyway its foolish
i don’t really care and @Archer_en_Tilavine asked in a ticket sooooo

And a decade ago, we were asking this about rolling corporations to avoid wars, and got conflicting answers every single time. And then there was the debate about boomeranging and hyperdunking when ganking.

if it supposedly an exploit, it aint being enforced, anyone can tell that by flying from amarr to jita every day and seeing the local in all the systems
the spammer scammers burn through alts to get around people blocking them (which I dont get, if someone knows your a scam to block you, they wont believe you saying the same crap under a different name) and the gankers that are to lazy to repair their sec rating, or dont want to wait out all the kill rights
You got me giggling uncontrollably. I knew people like this.

nah ive killed a guy and his alt remakes several times in jita, he had day 0s in trashers popping pods/shuttles/untanked frigates. get low enough delete and have another one out.
Why are you quoting my post and then write something that has zero relevance to the quote? If you just want to brag how you once killed a trasher you don’t really have to quote me.
Did you report him? If not you are part of the problem.
Yes. But i think manhunt unabomber is a better series , mindhunter is well produced , more popular , have good actors , but manhunt is more intelligent and well directed imho
Sorry but I found this kinda funny. You don’t want miners thinking they’re safe but you also want to gank them without your sec status suffering and, coincidentally, without anyone ever being able to retaliate because you’ve deleted the character.

ok not sure why some posts were simply deleted here…
My ticket is being escalated to a “specialist” (senior) GM…
But so far for clarity outside of a straight yes or no answer…this is what I have been given so far:
Hi again,
While I’m not exactly sure on how issues were handled several years ago, I can tell you for sure that we don’t ban someone just for biomassing a character here and there, as the specific scenario of biomassing a character occasionally dows not violate our policies in themselves. However, repeatedly doing this with nefarious or malicious intent, as well as bypassing game play mechanics is a violation of the aforementioned policies.
If there is anything else I can assist you with then please do not hesitate to get in touch.
Best Regards,
GM [redacted]

^^^pay attention to that last sentence btw (ive also asked to be pointed at mentioned policies so i can read them myself)
Keyword: “biomassing”
Nobody cares if you just make a bunch of alts and churn through them.
This has always bothered me about CODE. gank fleets. They are constantly biomassing their alts and making new characters. You can never even tell who is who, because they have a different character everytime you see them.
I really hope CCP does something about this serious exploit!!!

Code seem to use the same people for ages, they are -10 and it hardly matters.
Shut up and stop ruining the carebear narrative. Can’t you see how hard they’ve worked to accuse gankers of exploiting game mechanics by rolling new characters to avoid the police?
It’s one of those points that would be more honored in the breach, I feel. It’s a technicality. Basically CCP isn’t making a solid call on it because they know whatever side they come down on, someone will find a way to abuse it.
Leaving the definitions a bit fuzzy gives them wiggle room to handle it case by case. Which is going to happen anyway because however one GM responds to it one year, you can be sure a year later another GM will respond to it somewhat differently.
The point is moot with Alpha accounts anyway. Alphas are free. Create 20 Alpha accounts, start them all training. Transfer some money from your main, fit them with gank ships. Alternate the account you gank from. You’ll be years before they all acquire low enough standings to care about, at which point you just create more Alphas.
An equally serious problem is that gankers can change their “look” by putting on sunglasses or rearranging their hair. It is a clear exploit that has no purpose other than to confuse innocent would-be gankees.

The only piece missing from your masterpiece equation is that no one actually does this, despite being able to.
