I see the solution as simply getting rid of the lottery. I don't see why Tech2 BPO's can't be given out during an event(s).
As for this. It's a sad thing, but the real world has corruption so I take it as a step of realism to see people in power abuse it, just don't keep it up

Considering that the Events have been proven (and admitted) to have been leaked in the past (not to mention other shady happenings rather recently during an event) that would probably be worse than the lottery..
Meh, good point. Atleast people would know who got those BPO's though, no more shady business on their origin.

Originally by: DarkMatter I feel bad for the guys who lost their characters, that's insane... If I had my characters deleted after 4 years against my will, I'd want to kill someone... Too many of you are playing up the wounded victim scenario here; you need to get over yourselves...
/Signed.
If they aren't going to fire this dev (not saying they should) then they need to un-ban this whistle blower.

The unbelievable amount of effort everyone is putting to burying this whole issue is rediculuse.

Originally by: Baun Why hasn't there been an ingame news posting about this? If you aren't covering this up how can you explain this?
65 pages and counting, nearly 2000 posts so far, and two dev blogs. Nope, no one can find this thread. CCP's cover up is working perfectly.
I have you even checked whats happening in general discussion before shooting your mouth off?

Why weren't the T2 BPOs in question removed from the game when they were discovered but kept in game?
Why isn't Sir Molle banned when he directly violated the EULA by posting RL info about a player?
Why are devs allowed to be in director positions in major alliances?
Why is CCP trying to keep everything secrect?
Be honest, be transparent. EVE is a wonderful game, the player community is great and just loves this game (why else then so many posts?).
Please make a list with devs, GMs, Event managers. The list should contain the responsibilites of the people, their area of work and if their chars are in an alliance and if yes, in which one.
Those bold questions are the big ones in my opinion.
1.) Dev's should not take senior Alliance leadership positions. 2.) They either need to ban Sir Molle or Kugutsumen needs to have his accounts unbanned. Thats a unbelievable double standard if I've ever seen one. 3.) There should be a ingame news post and an ACTUAL sticky in General Discussion.
0/ to our newly returning BoB forum warriors. I wondered how long until we would see the spin machine again.

Quote: People claiming this is somehow hidden really have no understanding of the forum structure.
Where is the article on Eve-O's front page? How is the casual customer to learn of this -- from the company, or from other, probably disgruntled, customers? "Understanding the forum structure" is all well and good once you KNOW that something has happened, but misses the point: bad news doesn't get better with time. CCP should be the first to greet their players with this troubling story -- instead, they begrudgingly admit wrongdoing and pronounce half-measures to correct it only to customers who have started digging for the facts. What is there to justify further trust?
To reinforce this point, when I got on eve/vent last night everyone in my corp was clueless. My corp isn't huge by any mean, but most of them are on the forums quite a bit.
I guess it's not hard to find if your looking, but it's also extremely easy to overlook (which is probably whats being hoped for).

Kieron, many people are still waiting for a simple answer to a simple question:
Why wasn't SirMolle banned for posting someone's real-life details?
Thank you.
That's an excellent question, and needs to be answered.
He posted on the forums.
Rarely do actions on the forums get an in-game punishment.
This is what Kugutsumen was banned for:
TOS 16. You may not engage in any activity that increases the difficulty and/or expense of CCP in maintaining the EVE Online client, server, web site or other services for the benefit and enjoyment of all its users.
18. You may not communicate, post or publicize any subscriber's personal information within the EVE Online game world or website.
Note there is no mention of hacking. If you want to read more check his site, that should be enough to prove my point.
Not saying he was right in whatever he did, but either he should come back or SirMolle (and all his accounts) should be banned.

... I'd laugh harder if they banned all of Goonfleet for the client side hack.
Yeah, that is another huge issue that people keep forgetting about.
Not completely related, but something should be done.

Originally by: zakatai So what has happened to T20? Sad to see what has happened. Stupid mistake.
No one is completely sure, but we know he won't be fired.

CCP was on thr ropes already from a manpower perspective last summer, and couldn't afford to lose one of their key Devs and.or create this kind of player response. There was an upcoming merjer and the China server, and Dragon code were all just coming together. Far easier and cheaper to sweep it under the mat and hope no one found out.
Now here we are...
So, six month rollback time?
Not gonna happen. The game would be all kinds of crazy if it was back in rmr.

Originally by: Helox Dunno, but I believe t20 was a webdeveloper and just recently was promoted to a junior game dev? (Way to punish him btw) There we go!
It took him less than a month to use his new powers. LoL, that kinda makes this better for me. Hopefully it's been a good learning experience for him.
Still not saying what he did was right, but it's better than a seasoned dev doing it (plus it proves he couldn't have been influencing bob before that time).
/Edit: I guess he could have been helping their number one PVPers before that (read forum warriors).

I think the only thing we all (most?) agree on is that Eve is a very equal game. It's just more equal for some then for others.
That GM issue where the players got banned for GM abuse seems to have set a rather horrible precedent, but I even think thats a little over the top.
