Stupid move by Lark, but apparently a swift move by internal, and a transparent and appropriate response. It was bound to happen at one point but the way this was handled is a positive for the CSM rather than something against it. No system is ever perfect, but apparently this one is working as it should. -- Quis custodiet ipsos custodes? |

*shakes fist at fallout* I've had to wait 5 mins to post this, so you all have to go read it where I originally posted it..
TL;DR: Lark did a dumb thing. CCP were chill about not banning him for life. Lark has been very grown up about it since. Respect++.

...My actions in some way have undermined that which is why I have no choice but to resign from the CSM. It is a voluntary act and not a case of jumping before being pushed and I will be allowed to run for another term in the future if I so desire.

To those those claim its 'just a computer game'. CCP is a real life business that sells a real life service (in this case, a computer game) and they have real life competitors. The MMO marketplace is becoming extremely crowded and there is the potential that any changes to the game will effect CCPs position in that market place.
The NDA that Lark would have signed would cover telling people about any upcoming game changes. The resignation was not really due to him purchasing x amount of virtual whatever, it was because in doing so he release information about a game change to the public. In this particular case it doesn't look like its "world changing" in any way and its unlikely that any of CCPs real life competitors would gain anything in the MMO market place by knowing this information before it was released.
The NDA is however a blanket legal agreement that would cover anything the CMS learns that is not public knowledge. If for example CCP were planing on doubling the size of the eve universe it would be HUGE news.. Unless blizzard found out about it and announced a week before hand that they were going to triple the size of the wow universe. This would make it look as though CCP is just trying to copy blizzard who would then sell themselves as the market leaders, where in reality it was the other way around.
Stop thinking of this incident in terms of in game gain and start thinking of what it represents in terms of potential out of game loss for CCP.

Is that really you Lana? Have I been trolled sublimely because I agree with the above?
NDAs transcend games really - it's not "cheating in a game", you're breaking a legally binding agreement. The fact that NDAs breaches based around games rarely seem to be persued through the courts doesn't mean they can't be where there is financial or punitive harm caused.

Applying for a position in CCP marketing.. Gota make myself look good.
Seriously though, Larks know what he did was stupid and I think CCPs response was appropriate for the situation. (based on both sides of the story that have been presented to me)

The sad part about this is he only invested 2,5 bill. Even if such item increases price 10 tiems he will only earn 22,5 bill.
Lark you're an idiot, not for doing this, but because you were way more usefull inside CSM, because the lack of good representatives and you had good ideas and cocnerns. So yeah, **** you 
Very funny anyway. WIS is an expansion which allows EVE players to wear leather and walk around stations.

What really annoys me is I didn't get to go to Iceland and find out what I should be speculating on! I expect is that stations will be adding nonnis sandwich outlets which you can rent and then sell the amazing lamb subs, and that planets will let you raise lambs. I expect the lambs were going to be fed some trade good and Lark bought a bunch of it all up!
So CCP, can I run again after getting dragged into this? Or at least can I get the inside Iceland info so I can get rich?

This sounds like a made up drama. We all love eve drama bombs, and sometimes they even make it into the news, which is good advertisement. But this one doesn't have enough spice, you should have added something more to it.
The guy in question wasn't very bright, that's all, doesn't mean that the other CSM members are any better, they probably do it with other accounts or via friends, so they can't be caught.

I can say without a doubt for me this is not a made up drama. An active CSM can expect to spend 20 or more hours a week participating in the process. Just being in the CSM makes you the target of random war decs, It is a job.
So now I have someone that clearly was not committed to the process,that wasted a bunch of peoples time, got sent to Iceland and blew it all away.
So I am the person that gets to pick up the pieces. I have months of meetings ahead of me knowing I never had a chance to raise any of the issues that I think mattered to the folks that voted for me with CCP face t face and that because this clown was elected I may never be able to be elected to be in the CSM again because my "second" term is now the dredges of Trak's.
This is real for me,
Issler

I wouldn't say Lark wasted peoples time, he (apparently) put forward ideas & suggestions according to his piratical manifesto. The fact he made a mistake and resigned doesn't mean those ideas are now off the table.
Issler: You're presumably still getting a free trip to Iceland and are participating in something only a fraction of the playerbase will ever be involved with. Also (sorry to say) you were a runner-up to begin with so this latest development is a positive move for you that may have otherwise never happened anyway.

I really don't like this Issler tool already. He has like, 5 "look at me, I'm in the CSM" posts already, all the while pretending it's some tremendous terrible burden that he's been stuck with and doesn't actually want. Plus he's a bleeding heart carebear.
How about all the people who voted for Lark (3 times!) get to recast their votes for one of the alternatives, instead of being stuck with Issler

Good move on part of CCP. NDA FTW.
As for Adam Ridgway (aka Larkonis Trassler); you're a disgrace and unworthy of the responsibility of CSM, let alone your own signature on an NDA. I hope you're name is quickly forgotten.

Can we have a by election instead of just picking the next person in line? Cat seems like a much better alternative than what I have seen of this new CSM by default member..
