It is interesting to read all the replies. I should be surprised at all the "support" postings, but I am not, really. There are no ethics in Eve. Signing a NDA means nothing to a group of gamers that have no vested interest in the commercial success of the game. After all, if Eve were not here, we'd all be playing something else, right? So he is banned. What did he really lose? Nothing. There are no real life legal ramifications. So go for it. Grab your bit of the pie before it is gone. This one got caught, but others will not. That is simply the way it is. Actually, I think he made an epic fail. Why not get others to invest the isk and give you a percentage? They didn't sign some silly piece of legal jargon, so they can't be held responsible...oh wait....did someone already think of that?

EVE is a mirror to real life as usual  Gotta say I found the whole 'I'm just a guy, you'd have acted just like me, hell why not vote for me again' pretty disgusting.

Eve needs people that ruins the game for he's own profit ?!?
Just let me ask you this , if Lark didnt get caught , should be fair for other people ingame what he was doing ?
Resign from the CSM was the best thing he could do ! Get back that position knowing he can act against ccp rules again dosent seems to be a good idea .

This is nothing to get all butthurt about. The dude got drunk, did a stupid thing, got caught immediately, and was kicked from his holiday party, and banned for his troubles. That's it. Nothing to make a lot of hoopla about.
Now little miss substitute gets a bit uppity because she missed out on her holiday trip. Fine, be all uptight about it. By the way you're going on, I'll doubt you'll get enough votes even if you are allowed to run again.
For the rest, take comfort in the fact that the system, as flawed as it is, seems to work.

The Scorpion and the Frog
A scorpion asks a frog to carry him across a river. The frog is afraid of being stung, but the scorpion reassures him that if it stung the frog, the frog would sink and the scorpion would drown as well. The frog then agrees; nevertheless, in mid-river, the scorpion stings him, dooming the two of them. When asked why, the scorpion explains, "I'm a scorpion; it's my nature."
I voted for you boss and I'd do it again.

Originally by: Serenity Steele 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.
If anything, Adam Ridgway's name should, and must, be remembered. Through this debate, we are skirting round the one true issue here.
It was not Larkonis Trassler who broke the NDA and exploited his role in the CSM. It was Adam Ridgway.
Adam Ridgway signed a legally binding Non Disclosure Agreement.
Adam Ridgway broke this agreement, by using his role in the CSM to further his own ends.
Adam Ridgway was caught doing it. And only then was he apologetic.
Adam Ridgway posted on Scrapheap Challenge after this apology, referring to such market manipulation as 'Jew Trading'. Clearly alluding to offensive anti-semitic stereotypes.
Adam Ridgway also posted a degrading comment in the same thread about the prospect of 'spit-roasting' an Icelandic native, all while being supposedly apologetic.
Recruiting employers are not dumb people, and routinely search for applicant names on Google. A search for Adam Ridgway will reveal him to be an untrustworthy applicant, incapable of fulfilling the obligations of any future contract, as well as having issues with regards females and those of the jewish faith.
Given equal qualifications with another applicant, would any employer want to hire the untrustworthy sexist anti-semite Adam Ridgway?
I really hope it was worth it, for Adam Ridgway's sake.
The internet has a long memory.

While I agree this act was bad, but I have to scratch my head. Look at the huge swings in pricing of numerous items when the new CSM group came into office. I specifically noticed a 600% increase in the number of Titans being raffled/sold. Am I the only one that's wondering why no research has been done to find out who leaked this out to the large Alliances? Seems interesting that the NDA all CSM's signed appears to be of little importance.
There now is a rabbit hole, so is anyone going to do research as to how deep it goes?

Very valid and good points Hiro. I should have been more explicit, that any (previous) accomplishments are forgotten within the EVE universe. Long live the memory of the Internet!

Edited by: De''Veldrin on 09/09/2009 19:15:20 I posted this in the assembly hall, forum, but as this seems to be the "official" thread for these comments, I'll repeat myself.
1. All of Adam Ridgeway's (aka Larkonis Trassler) accounts should be permanently banned, the characters deleted from the system, and the resources associated with those characters expunged from the EVE universe. Because I'm in a good mood, I won't recommend disbanding any organization he is the CEO/executor of.
2. The current CSM needs to substantially and publically distance themselves from these actions, or risk removal from office. No one backpedals faster than a politician who might lose office because the guy "who bought me a drink" screwed the pooch.
3. Failure in step 2 should result in the disbanding of the current CSM due to a lack of confidence in their ability to actually keep to their real life agreements. Forget the damned ISK, the man violated a legal binding agreement to try and get ahead a little, and has been patentedly unremorseful about the whole thing; his "apology" is Socratic at best. The CSM can either be replaced from the current ranks of backups, or a special election could be held to replace them.
Unfortunately for the rest of us what Adam did will not end here - it will cause future concerns over the viability of the CSM process. There will now always be doubts that the members of the CSM are simply using that position to enrich themselves and their friends, though the ultimate act of meta gaming, unless the current CSM and CCP act to put a halt to those doubts. --Vel

I saw the title of the blog and I knew it was Larkonis.... that is why I voted 3 times and will vote 3 times more if he runs again.
Funny that CCP wants the Corp and Alliance models to mimic that of the real world by allowing espionage and treason, yet when it actually hits their real world model, they cry foul.
Oh the irony!!!!
Adam Ridgway is a great mind who knows how to think outside of the box. Adam Ridgway would be an asset to any enterprising business or business venture. Adam Ridgway is merely a viictim of his own intelligence and should not be punished for doing exactly what has helped to put EVE on the REAL WORLD map. You are my hero Adam Ridgway.

Anything below a permanent ban of lark and all associated accounts is merely a invitation to future CSM members to try such stunts in much larger scale. Dropping legal action should be the only leniency in this incident.
A 30 day ban is a laughable slap on the wrist for a blatant breach of trust between the CSM and CCP and a permanently staining of the trustworthiness of the CSM.
There can be no tolerance for this. -------- Ideas for: Mining

the idiots at ccp are apparently banning people for posting what this was despite that everyone with half a brain already figured it out because they gave the exact time and isk amount, and once someone figured that out the market in jita rapidly emptied out
I have no inside information but literally anyone can figure out at this point the product is one or both of the unused r64s and that was so obviously it that it was the first thing I checked when I wanted to find out what the material at issue was
just publish the damn devblog already about it since the cat is already out of the bag, I'll make it simple : "we realized the faulty way we designed the moon mining system made two r64's worthless because there is a huge excess of those two when all prom/dyspro has been used that can never be used, so we're rebalancing reactions to fix that horrible mistake/we are introducing alchemy to make there be some use for them/we are introducing new reactions exclusively using the bad r64s, more details to come soon"

That was such a silly argument.
For example If I type my RL name into google. Like 30+ different people come up, none have anything to do with me.

I have once been apart of an Internet Spaceship Fleet lead by Mr. Adam Ridgway. Suffice to say, Adam Ridgway is a very bad FC. I then proceeded to smartbomb said fleet (lead by Adam Ridgway), furthermore proving the terribleness of Adam Ridgway. As such, if You, the Reader, happen to be considering Adam Ridgway for a Fleet Commander position at your establishment, let it be known: you really should not hire Adam Ridgway, for he is terrible.

And the consequences of crossing that line were decided by CCP, just as they decide on how to punisher people who break the EULA.
I just don't understand why people care as much to try and bring his real life into it; he did something stupid, he got punished with a ingame ban and no more free trips to Iceland.

Seriously dude, what's wrong with you? Internet spaceships serious business? Got podded by the guy? Scammed you on a contract? No friends in RL and didn't get any votes in the election? You really need to get some perspective on this. Better yet, step away from the keyboard for a second. Leave your basement for a while. It's really not that scary. Seriously, this is just not very healthy ...
