So do you expect CCP to retroactively ban/DQ the last 4 winners of the alliance tournament? Because I know for a fact that Hydra and PL both have account shared their way to victory. Account sharing in the AT is a time honoured tradition. Hell, the year Gobbins got banned from the tourney for flying around Jove space he finished the tourney flying on one of Garmon's accounts. CCP are suddenly gonna start selectively banning teams that have bitter ex-members outing them? The only difference between this and other teams doing the same thing is someone is crying about it.

Says another bitter ex-Rote Kapelle guy who left over drama.

none of this contradicts the OP's claims

you're just keeping the thread at the top of the forums and giving claire more excuse to sperg.

The rule pertains to characters, not pilots

The character he flew was eligible to be flown

How in the world could you have been in rk for 6 months, and still have the nerve to try to sabotage their efforts? surely you formed some friends in that time, and it's over very trivial reasoning too, it is against the eula to acc share, but I honestly doubt CCP cares at all under the current circumstance, otherwise some action would have been taken already. RK have given great matches, every one has enjoyed them, that's what the CCP tourney team mainly cares about, I will be extremely surprised if anything comes from this, and that's saying something given how biased I am due to recentish events

Fair point.

This is pretty boring as far as drama goes.

+1 Claire, but it's pointless

Cheating is allowed in the ATX. CCP doesn't care unless you get egg on their face.

Python injecting. Collusion. Account sharing. Sure, the logs show nothing, but we all know. It's only confirmed when ppl like Monkey post logs of their hacking (for PL), we see replays of Hydra/Outbreaks final or we hear about this (which I'm sure is a VERY rampant problem. should just be Standard Operating Procedure to do an IP check on anyone competing and check for inconsistancies)

But it's a pipe dream. EVE is full of liars, cheats and thieves. CCP wants that. They advertise it and wonder why the game has people willing to break the rules CCP establishes to get ahead.

CCP will just ignore it. They wont recognize it. They will sweep it under the rug unless the outcry is overwhelming (ala T20, greed is good etc). It is really sad that CCP wont just enforce their rules and impose strict penalties to all who benefit.

This means probably closing eVoke for their moon-goo scam (banning 2-3 people is lol worthy. That's no penalty when huge alliances were built from broken pos') Probably snagging a lot of assets from old BoB members. Removing trophies, ships and the isk profit from PL. Removing trophies, ships and the isk profits from hydra/outbreak. Perm-banning anyone who accountshares etc.

Make it so painful for anyone who even knows a cheater that players start enforcing themselves. As it stands the risks are minor and the gains astronomical. Not like banning a few bitter vets or taking 10tril out of the economy is going to hurt your average player. More likely people will believe the rules matter, the deck isn't stacked and that they too should play EVE.

I'm quite enjoying this thread... would like to see what ccp have to say :)

Then they didn't like the fact that I disagreed with violating those rules, so I left Rote Kapelle rather than fly with people who condone cheating and lying.

So, tell us why you really left RK.

In b4 we find out that Hydra/0utbreak managed to still compete in the alliance tournament by using shared RVB accounts.

Show me on the doll where Rote Kapelle touched you...

If you'd like I can post a copy of my farewell forum post.

Yes please.

Granted:

To the members of Rote Kapelle;

Last night I dropped roles and will be leaving Stimulus/Rote Kapelle in approximately 12 hours.-á A fundamental difference in opinion has led to this and I want all of you to know that I did not arrive at this decision lightly.-á

It's probably been very apparent to all that I've been more than a little agitated over this last week.-á I apologize for that, but I really am bothered by the events as they unfolded, vis-a-vis the ATX Tournament and our team's conduct.-á

I consider what happened in both the RK-RvB match and the RK-PL match (account sharing -- Brent-Bacc, and Booley-Dradius) to be cheating.-á Especially so in the PL match in order to get Dradius around the 'time-in-alliance' restriction that CCP has set forth in the ATX rules.-á Not only is it against the EULA/ToS, but it was against both the letter and the spirit of the ATX rules.

Brent and Booley were warned after I found out that Bacc shared Brent's account during the RvB match not to break the rules in this manner again.-á Unfortunately they decided to ignore that warning and do it again in the PL match.-á

To be honest, I'm not as disappointed in Brent (who wants to win at all costs,) Booley (who doesn't give a d**n about anyone but Booley,) and Dradius (who, while having been a huge help in practice, just wants to fly in the tournament,) as I am with Ripard.-á After reading the majority of his blog I had come to think of him as a principled and ethical person.-á If anyone on the tournament team should have put his foot down and stopped this it should have been him.-á Apparently I was mistaken in my impression of Ripard.

Some of you may or may not agree with my stance or reasoning on the issues.-á That's fine, we're all entitled to our own opinions.-á I just wanted all of you to understand that this isn't some false sense of epeen-pixel-honor.-á Rather it's a part of who I am in real life GǪ I don't cheat, and I won't associate with people that participate in, or condone cheating.-á It's just who I am GǪ how I was brought up.

I'm down to three clones and three ships in TXW, so don't worry about trying to bubble my carrier or freighter in.-á Everything else was dumped into Brent's hangar so I wouldn't have to haul it all back out.-á He should have plenty of ships to lose on his live-streaming, beer-fueled, solo roams.

Finally, at the posting of this thread someone in control of the forum can go ahead and revoke my access, as I won't be looking back over my shoulder to read the comments.-á I've made my decision and I'm good with it.
