Well, I came across this interesting bug which this is game-wide even in other alliances and it is obviously broken. When I was checking my mail on Eve Gate, I looked over to my right column and saw that there was a bunch of calendar events. I naturally thought that someone had way too much time on their hands and decided to check it out. Turns out that it was all of the towers within the alliances that displays when they run out of fuel. I go up to the guy that's in charge of assigning roles and it turns out I have not been granted any whatsoever lately. I thought it was odd why I was seeing this information that is exclusively limited to Starbase Fuel Technicians. The reason why I noticed this and other people even with inferior brains like my fellow goons is because I used to work QA in the software sector. If it's not supposed to do that or is just odd for functioning that way, it must be a bug.

"But my calendar doesn't show this so you're a liar." Here's the trick, just leave up calendar up for more than 10 minutes and all the crap will probably start filling up the calendar. Here's a quicker way to check. Go check the eve gate and see if your calendar is showing this same information about all the towers that needs to be topped off with fuel.
Now you may ask "Why the f do I care?". The simple solution is that spies are a natural part of this game, right? Your alliance leaders work hard to keep information private especially when towers run out of fuel. These information are critical and the backbone of your alliance to keep it going. You're not going to be happy when your CSAA Tower pumping out a baby titan had 12 hours left of fuel and you were planning to do it within that time frame but the enemy finds out this information and blockades your tower to oblivion.
Now in the end, I've already sent petitions, bug reports, even had other people send petitions and they haven't been answered by CCP. So right now, I'm going to assume that either CCP intentionally broke the system and allowed anyone within an alliance to see this information or they just don't care. Well I'm hoping to inform all you pubbies, null-sec, low-secs, and high-secs alike about this bug and get the message out to CCP that they need to fix this bug immediately.
If you got nothing to contribute, please point out why you guys love the GoonSwarm Federation.

It's all a trick to make life easier for CCP spys in major alliances. 3) They thought there were something more important to fix before this bug and they're all busy making client updates. You do bring up good points. |

But no, the majority of Eve players just really are that bad. Yeah, I remember when I realized how intelligent the average human was too. Honestly, humanity has never been smart. |

Well i complain at how terrible all you goons are at pvping. Even tho you talk as if your something special. That implies you've pvped against us. Which you clearly haven't since none of us have heard of you. Do you live in high-sec like the hermit you are? |

Except your statement never made sense anyways. I had to assume that you are either bad at posting / writing english or just terrible in general. |

Remember that you can disable these notifications in the Control Tower Manager window and that should prevent any notifications at all.
Will also be looking into the charter and sovereignty bonus issue.
Sorry for the inconvenience. Good thing we don't have nearly 200 towers that we'd have to do this with. Not to mention that u have to "randomly" refuel them all so that all the intervals change cause SPAIS now have detailed lists of your pos fuel timers :p Have fun Or you can just keep them topped off and always keep them topped off. "Okay guys, let's plan an ops for x day because that's when the fuel runs out." and halfway through being empty, it gets topped off again. But the ops ends up being a failure because the tower is fueled up and isn't expected to run out of fuel anytime soon. Our logistics division is one of the best out there at maintaining our towers :)
Plus there's another tidbit that I know about the calendar that you don't know so your point is moot. |

What feature or bit of code changed that impacted this particular behavior with the POS fuel reporting mechanism? That is the question that you guys need to be asking yourselves because this is QA testing 101 stuff. Well I'm hoping to know this answer too so I can investigate myself in the case it isn't fixed. I'm already keeping my eyes out for anything similar even if CCP claims they "fixed" it. |
