SOE's new "fix" for plat farmers -- "no subscription found" error - Page 2

LMFAO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! !!!!!!!!!!

Well if it is plat farmers steeling peoples IDs then I can’t say im sorry for them! Also that would most certainly NOT be Sony’s fault.

A large scale ID theft ring might be just what the US needs to bring severe action against people in a country like China.

By god if those plat farmers have gone and made big trouble for them selves this might be the end of them. They survive by staying under the radar; they are impervious to class action suits from anyone, even Soney. The U.S. Attorney General on the other had cant be so easily /ignored.

XX Heres hoping for a large scale organized crime ring in China praying on US criticizes thrue SoE.

Well, maybe you take a line from the original post:

Reflect on Smedley's comment here in a post on the RMT thread regarding plat farmers.

In addition we recieve large scale (over $500k so far) fines for chargebacks that these scumbag farmers routinely do. They purchase a new account.. use it for a month and then call the credit card company to say "I never paid for this". Over time, as the # of these incidents rise we get fined by the credit card companies. And it's not just us, other large MMO companies are seeing exactly the same problem.

So a little internet message board math and 2 + 2 = something >=3 and <=5.

Or maybe not...

There's plenty of large-scale ID and Credit Card theft rings out there, some operating in China. If one happened to also be involved in the RMT business, it wouldn't make a huge amount of difference.

Keep in mind that the RMT industry is rather decentralized, so even if one shop was using stolen cards, or was helping steal cards, shutting them down wouldn't do much to stem the RMT industry as a whole.
