No. It tells me what triggered you being banned, and this was : people reporting you.
I am telling you, that this is not how it works in Eve. This tells you, that your question about the dangers or reporting people that you don’t believe are bot, can’t be answered by your experience on other games.
Because THAT is why you invoked your personal experiences.
You do know that 99.9% of the traders in Jita are alts right?
And that 99.9 of those are also still in their starter NPC corp?
So good luck finding out who’s alt belongs to who.
Up to 5 years ago, I ran 10 accounts (all funded by trading). Which gave me access to 12 station traders and 2 haulers for them. All of which unless you had the APIs to the accounts could not be traced back to me from seeing that I sold you an item.
More bs being shat out by a kid who wants to play-pretend an internet badass.
There are plenty of people who devote a lot of time to this, but some kid who played for a month back in 2008, went afk for ELEVEN YEARS and only learned about Planetary Production last year is claiming that ID-ing trade alts in Jita and their true owners is “really really not as hard as you think.”
You have no mechanism in the game to link an order with an account without purchasing from that order.
So you need to guess, eg by linking update time with people in Jita / perimeter, and assume that the orders are mostly updated by ppl in one of those systems.
So if an order is created at 9:00, updated at 10:30, 17:00, and 22:00, and specific set of ppl were present at those time, you can give probability of the order belonging to someone.
But then anyone else can just update the order at the specific moment someone else is present and make you believe that the orders belong to that person.
Then, even if you have the knowledge of who that order belongs to, you then need to know whose alt it is.
Basically, that implies knowing who is who, and that’s something that is not available in the game, and actually can be gamed in the game to make you believe that someone is the alt of another one.
