Allowing accounts to trade characters opens the door for a whole host of issues. If you tie offenses to an account, you open the door for someone to simply transfer a character to a new account before the old account is banned, and CCP is specifically addressing just that issue in the latest bot bust.
Following a strike that saw over a thousand bots banned from Eve Online, CCP went on their website to announce a new tool in the fight against ne’er do wells. From now on, accounts hit with a warning for bottling will find their transfer privileges gone.
From now on, and this current wave is included, characters who receive a warning such as this will have the characters locked to the account. This means that once you’ve received a warning for botting your character transfer privileges have been revoked in perpetuity. This is to prevent people trying to circumvent the rules by recycling accounts. </
CCP has promised more to come after Fanfest. Stop botting.
