What is it with Larkonis fan club that they feel the need to whitewash what he did?
I swear it's like watching a bunch of politicians trying to define the words "sexual relations" all over again. --Vel

Originally by: Drake Draconis Yes... because it is perfectly acceptable for players to break Non-Disclosure Agreements/Contracts and get off scott free (as far as being perma-banned).
Emphatic Thumbs Down
Non-Disclosure Agreement
He didn't disclose anything, therefor how did he break it?
Re-read my post.
I said NDA/CONTRACT.
He was not supposed to act on that information therefore he broke the NDA.
I suggest you learn to read before you post... less embarrassing.
He signed an NDA. He didn't disclose anything.
What exactly are you trying to say?
A typical NDA also includes a clause stating that you will not use the information for personal gain. And to counter your next argument, since ISK can be traded for game time via PLEXes it DOES have a real world value, and thus can be included in the "for personal gain" argument. --Vel

Oh I'm sorry I didn't realise you also read the NDA that Larkonis signed. I'll be more careful in the future to ensure I don't make that mistake.
And you can't trade ISK for $$$. How does that give it real world value? And how come Plex scamming is allowed? Because it's an INGAME item. It has nothing to do with the real world.
edit: getting slightly off topic here btw
Stop being an idiot on purpose. It's not helping your argument.
We get it that you're a Lark fanboi, and that's fine - some of us feel that our CSM members should hold themselves to a higher standard of behavior, which is why we're disagreeing with your proposal.
But don't throw attitude at us when we use examples to show why you're wrong. An NDA is a standard legal document - CCP didn't invent them, and having signed quite a few of them myself, I can tell you more or less what's included.
The clause for personal gain is included to prevent you from using any information you may encounter in your activities under the agreement in a manner that would give you a tangible benefit. Since ISK can be used to buy game time (as I pointed out), Lark's use of the information could enable him to acquire game time in a manner not available to every other player in the game, and that's the key point. Yes you can scam plex - and anyone else in the game can try the same tactic to get free game time. Lark's actions enabled him to be able to acquire that game time in a manner not available to everyone because it was based on knowledge not yet available to the wider player base (in essence, he engaged in insider trading). --Vel

Originally by: Ran Khanon I guess we all know what he did wrong. Most of us do, at least. The question is whether he should be wiped from the history books for it and getting his shiny medal taken away; like a referee dropping by your house to collect your soccer trophies after you got sent off in your latest match.
No, it's more like the Olympic Comittie revoking your medal because they found out you cheated during the Olympics and that was why you won. --Vel
