This is the most outrageous, dispicable example of CCP misconduct I have EVER witnessed.
We, the loyal players, who pay our subscriptions, are seeing the sacred Name Change Policy handbook torn up in front of our eyes. That policy document was our rock, our saviour, our bible.
I feel violated, and I fully support involving the Icelandic police authorities in initiating a full and transparent investigation into this serious, serious matter.

I'm hoping that this will turn out to be the resolution of the original petitions filed over the disbanding, and that most of the delay was CCP making decisions. Asking to be allowed to change the name of a temporary alliance at a later date if CCP decided not to reinstate the alliance BoB seems a relatively natural thing to at least ask for, since it can be argued that BoB wasn't left with time to meet to pick a name, as CCP's bad interface allowed their former alliance to go poof without warning, and they needed sov.
Whether this is indeed what happened, and whether or not CCP should have granted such a request, is another matter of course. As there has been a sov reset involved, if this was a result of petitions from that time it doesn't seem that unreasonable, if a bit slow on someone's part. Why they could do this with an alliance that wasn't specifically made for the purpose is another puzzle, but again, may have been seen as a reasonable request by CCP that would give them time to decide on their course of action.
Why either this new alliance name, or the goon corp name, are not an impersonation of the other is a bit strange, but I really can't be arsed to look up the details of CCP's policy, and I don't know what line they've drawn in the past on what is and isn't impersonation.
Ironically, if this was part of petitions that old, CCP is probably frantically trying to figure out how to explain what happened without violating their own policies regarding not posting information about petitions and other GM interactions that have occurred.
Oh, and has anyone checked to see if the option to disband an alliance without a vote is still present in the new version of EVE? If CCP deemed that to need changing but the disbanding as a legitimate use of game mechanics at the time, that would partially explain any treatment of this as an isolated incident, but I'd expect that particular option to be removed in the near future if it isn't already...
While this does pretty clearly call for a clarification of current name change policies in light of, well, a name change, comparing this to illegitimate T2 BPOs is a bit much really

they redrew the rules because BoBR (which apparently translates to "beaver" in Russian), cried enough and got their way. Again.

This is certainly odd. In the 2 years I have done the EVE map, I've never seen anyone (well, at least none of the established alliances) get a name change. Nor is it consistent with the name system as described with the game's (lack of) documentation - I don't even have a routine in the map code to check for changed names, since it's not supposed to happen.
I'd like to hear an explanation on why this is, since it's so far out of the ordinary, but I don't suspect we'll get one.
I'll go fix the map for tomorrow. ---- FREE Explorer Lead Megalomanic EVE Null-Sec Player Influence Map http://dl1.eve-files.com/media/corp/Veritefw/FWinf |

Well i am a future paying customer and i am concerned as are many of my friends. It truly seems like a certain alliance seem to have different rules than everyone else has ! CCP can you explain why this is so. It may only be a change of name but along with that comes questions about sovereignty and should they keep any if indeed they have any left. If this had been a one off then sure why all the fuss but it isn't. Please CCP do explain to us what happened ?

The disbanding was done legitimatly, despite the...questionable nature of the mechanics. Secondly, they CHOSE kenzuko as a name so as to save themselves 1B isk in the reforming of the name. They also waited 48 HOURS+ after the disbanding for people to join Kenzuko. Their SOV was already set @ 0. The objection is not so much that they had a name change, but that it was done so they didnt loose the Sov that they have already developed. If they had name changed through ingame mechanchs, that would have happened. Instead, t20* cough CCP* have again showed the influence that is held by some members of the community.
They had the time.
Oh and the names 25 characthers long. again.

Alliance names can be more then 24 characters.
Look up such alliances as:
Accord Corporate Enterprise Syndicate created 2007.06.29 Allied German Research Organization create 2008.10.03 Amarrian Heavy Industries Megacorp created 2008.11.15
And those were just ones I found in the 'A' section. Obviously, Alliances have been using more then 24 characters for years now. =)
This is all very interesting, but I'd rather view battle reports, and engagement details, then listen to useless whining.

This is goons and NC we are talking about. Taking all those systems was taking a toll on them, now they have something to complain bobh4x about and they are now happy as clams. Now all they need is afew one sided losses (may have happened not sure as I don't pay attention) and they can start making 'not fair' and 'omghax' and maybe 1 or 2 'me and my 213 alts are quitting' posts. Whe that happens equilibrium has returned.

Well, Rather than crying about this all over the forums, I have done what was clearly the most obvious solution:
I have petitioned to change my alt's name, because I never really liked it anyway. It is apparent that CCP have changed their policy on name changes without telling anyone, so I suggest you take advantage of this opportunity at once! If you have a character whose name starts with A or Z, or if you bought a char with a dumb name, or even made a char with a dumb name that you now wish you could change, I encourage you to file a formal in-game petition to have it changed now, before CCP reverses their decision that name changes can happen.
This is not a loss, but a gain for us all! Especially those poor souls who wound up with hclchicken, or dungar's old accounts.

They should have spent time thinking about new tactics instead of new names, and yes there was a one sided fight in 49-

In a normal corp it would have been put to the vote, but SirLolle deleted all shares from Tinfoil specifically to avoid the 24 hour wait on votes. "BOB" did it to themselves, much like their horrible diplomacy and recruitment policies.
