Originally by: iudex Noticed a lot of scam attepmts aswell, for examle buy-orders in Jita for 400k. CCP should better ban this, there are a lot of legal problems in this regard. The PLEX are not just ingame-items like anything else (all items and isk) that are owned by CCP, they represent a right/claim towards CCP to grant a 30 day access, they have a legal existence and a monetary value outside the game, a value that is owned by someone else than CCP. The ingame-scamming becomes an out-of-game claim scamming, people therefore commit a RL crime imho.
well your humble opinion is wrong, stupid. is it physical? NO. then its IN ****ING GAME YOU ******! in game items are not owned by you. no ****ing exceptions. you just sound like a butt hurt nub who got scammed. shut up and die (ingame).
I dunno what my opinion is on whether scamming plexes is right or wrong but I do know that your argument is wrong. Plexes are at least as physical as a digital copy of a song or software and these are deemed to have a RL monetary value. Plenty of people get arrested/fined for inappropriate use/distribution/selling/scams involving these items.

oh just thought of another one, intellectual property, that can be "non physical" at least in so far as you describe it. Again, plenty of folks fall foul of the law for messing around with this too

Yes, but those laws protect the actual owner of those products. In this case that would be CCP, since you chose to change your gametime code for in-game items. The laws are there to protect original works and and insure that people keep creating and inventing new things. CCP is the one who decides what the proper use of these items is and their word is final.
yes as I said in the very post you quoted "I dunno what my opinion is on whether scamming plexes is right or wrong" I was not making an argument for the point, just pointing out the stupidity of the guy's argument that "not physical" equated to "ok to steal or scam"....it clearly does not. Using just another Eve example, the GTC is not physical by his definition and yet CCP themselves prohibit GTC scams....that is all.
