It is ludicrous to try and link this game to real life. Even weirder to say that EVE somehow reveals who "you truly are" if society didn't exist. If we didn't have social conditioning - we wouldn't be human. That's what humans do - they form communities. Communities create expectations and standards. At our core, we don't have a moral bone or something - we are just as moral as any animal but we are lucky enough to be pretty intelligent and social. Anyways...
Up to you Kalashnikov. You can still organize the ops for a couple weeks and see what your CEO does. Worst case scenario is that you have built some respect with the other active members as the only person willing to do anything. Best case scenario, the CEO realizes this and either starts getting his act together or feels willing to increase your role/access in the corp. If the worst case scenario is realized, talk to the other active members about creating your own corp / joining another corp. Shoot me a mail if you want suggestions.
Cheers!

this. i mean seriously guys.. if you play a thief in dungeons and dragons are you a thief in RL? if you take the evil route in infamous are you evil in RL? If you play Grand Theft Auto are you a sociopath in RL? The game was designed this way for a reason. It's the same as saying "you play the horde in WOW, you must be a bad person" Dishonesty is a game mechanic.. in this way EVE is similar to poker.

People are saying "its just a game" and "its just internet money", which isn't entirely true. Thanks to the GTC/PLEX system, 500m ISK can be valued at something like $15-20. Petty theft by player standards, but it has a connection to RL resources all the same.
Steal from them if you wish, but don't expect a pat on the back for it.
