Greetings, honorable spaceship pilots,
I hope everybody is having a great summer so far!
You haven’t heard much from us lately, so I thought it would be prudent to provide you all with an update, and make good on some promises we made earlier this year.
First, we are publishing the slides from our presentation at this year’s fanfest. You can grab those here, in glorious high-quality PDF format.
Now that the slides have been cleared for public consumption, we hope to continue this practice in the future, and we apologize for the delay in getting these out to you. Enjoy!
If you have not had a chance to check out the presentation, please check it out on YouTube: Fanfest 2014 – From Evidence to Bans
We are also sharing some brand new data on the ISK worth of assets located on accounts permanently banned by the team. These numbers have never been shown before, I hope you like them!
EDIT: Forums seemingly can’t handle graphs of this magnitude, you’ll find the graph here.
If you have any questions or comments, please feel free to leave us a reply in this thread, we will do our best to answer you. If tweeting is more up your alley, you’ll find us there as well! Give us your best 140 characters:
CCP Bugartist, Director of Information Security

Reminder of upcoming RMT policy changes
We are currently working on another dev blog to announce our move to a three-strike ISK Buyer policy. We mentioned these intentions at this year’s fanfest, but I think it warrants repeating.
Our current 4-strike policy for ISK buyers is too lenient:
• 1st strike, ISK removed and a warning
• 2nd strike, ISK removed and 7 day ban
• 3rd strike, ISK removed and 30 day ban
• 4th strike, permanent ban
Going forward, our new policy for ISK Buyers will be:
• 1st strike, 7 days temporary ban and removal of ISK
• 2nd strike, 21 days temporary ban and removal of ISK
• 3rd strike, permanent ban
As the vast majority of ISK Buyers are newer players (see slides, page 23), we want to get the message out there before making the switch. Expect more on this subject soon.
We’d also love your thoughts on the data we have presented, and perhaps requests for information you’d like to see us talk about.
Oh, and last but not least, CCP Bugartist demands that I also state: please, validate your email address at:
https://secure.eveonline.com.
As usual, send us anything fishy, suspicious or just how much you like us to [email protected].
Best regards,
CCP Peligro
Security Analyst
