rule 10 and 11
The very simple answer is you cannot trade anything in game for anything outside of the game. Trying to read between the lines by doing something like āif you buy this, Iāll buy thatā will just land you with a ban if anyone reports you or CCP looks into it. Many people have already linked you the proper ToS and EULA links, so if you canāt see how itās not allowed I donāt know what to tell you.
People donating ISK for 3rd party programs is about the only thing I know of that CCP finds acceptable while skirting the line. But if that 3rd party program requires isk for access, they get slapped down pretty hard anymore.
Regardless it all comes down to someone reporting you/CCP catching you.

The advertisement or sale of out of game goods and services not directly related to EVE Online is prohibited. The only out of game goods and services which can be advertised or sold for in-game currency or assets are the following: EVE forum signature creation, EVE related websites, EVE related artwork, third party voice communication server hosting, or EVE Time Codes.
Iām also paying top ISK & plex for your best attempt tat Oragmi Eve ships made using $10 bills.
Wow such eve artwork, wow such non prohibted RMTāness.

kinda ā ā ā ā ā ā ā ā that CCP can do it, and we cant
this goes back to copyright laws and junk. and what i mentioned earlier. since CCP has copyright on EVE.

You can just make eve art from anymoney you send and get paid with in game assets. Itās completely fine, did you not read rule 11?
its interesting to see that trolls basically pollute every rather serious topic with silly comments like this. there have always been trolls but im almost positive that since 2011 the forum trolls have actually gotten worse.

Interesting new ship.
The construction methods scream Minmatar, but the materials indicate Caldari design.

Itās effectively RMT, just with goods instead of money.
Had a former corpmate running a scam for a while, it was quite ingenious - and the fact that it was a scam was the only thing that saved him from getting banned.
The scam was the voice comms equivalent to phone sex for isk. Pay x amount of isk and get 20 minutes with a hottie on TeamSpeak in a private channel.
A GM was made aware of this and got to investigating, and almost banned him. The only reason he didnāt get banned was because there wasnāt any chatting with hot girls. You send money and get ignored if you start demanding your isk back. At which point the GM said something congratulatory for such a brilliant scam, and that was that.
This is of course anecdotal hearsay.

Why not just accept USD and then purchase plex from it??
Taking real life money for in-game items/services is RMT > Banhammer
