Ive seen similar variants of this bug in many game and never once was it consideder legal game play. 

I buy and item from one npc and truck it cross map and sell to another npc for 10% more. 

On a small scale there isnt an issue and this wouldnt be a big deal.  Working as intended.

However, there is always the one guy who figues out a way to exploit.  Well if i get 20 trial accounts i can do this 20 times every trip.    Not working as intended.

If there is a will there is a way.  Dosn't mean its legal.

Its the same in every game.  Toon gets banned for exploiting:  QQ a river on the forum.

Just feel lucky they only took your nic.

Please reread some of the above post - if you had read them carefully, you would have seen that not in every MMO is this considered an illegal activity.  As stated, EVE allows such activity as part of game play.  So you statement is incorrect.


Any action that destroys a games market or game play is an exploit.  If it gives one side an unfair advantage its and exploit.  They knew it wasnt working as intended and took full advantage.

Typical respose: In another game this action is allowed.

This is not EVE.
