Edited by: Shigsy on 29/01/2010 18:12:23 Recently, CCP has been trying to cover up "The Larkonisgate Scandal". Ingame, his CSM 3 Medal was removed from his character, despite Larkonis's dedication to the CSM. Many of the players proprosals were voted in by larkonis, and he helped change Eve-Online for the greater good. He was voted into the CSM by the community, and therefor deserves his medal, unlike others who weren't voted in, yet were defaulted a medal because of Larkonisgate.
Not only this, but it appears CCP are trying to airbrush this whole incident from history. On their Wiki, Larkonis has been apparantly removed from the equation altogether. Personally, I think this is poor form by CCP, who gave so much to the CSM, and in return recieved so little.
The least that can be done to rectify this situation is the restore Larkonis's name to the Wiki record, and give him back his ingame Medal for his services.

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).

Yes please. At least let the legacy of the great Larkonis and what he tried to achieve live on in official annals. (Which is a perfectly fine and decent English sentence).

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.

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

Have you actually read the CSM NDA?
It's quite clear that you haven't.

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.

Not sure about giving him his medal back but WTF removing him from the wiki.
Eve should be proud to have the odd scandal, it makes for interesting history and makes it look more like a proper democracy. _________________________________________________ Lifeboat ----> + Human |

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

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

Edited by: Gladys Pank on 29/01/2010 20:12:13 Considering the charm of Eve in terms of significance is it's single shard "what happens, happens to all", the attempt to mask a part of its history like this is pretty pathetic. Lark may have been underhanded in his insider trading efforts but considering that is entirely within the spirits of the games ethics, it's a disappointment in the least to see CCP trying to rewrite the history books. ~ Soar Like a Penguin |
