I think they started it when FW was introduced. The idea was to allow certain player volunteers to keep other players up to date on the real happenings of FW and write up reports and what not. That is as far as I remember.
Not sure why people are busting a nut over this. |

Oh hell no. That was dredged up from the far reaches of my memory. Gonna have to take my word for it or go find some stuff yourself from back in 08 :P |

Gonna have to take my word for it or go find some stuff yourself from back in 08 :P I've never heard of anything of the sort. So far as I know, TQ reporting by non-CCP employees has always been done from player ships (usually by players involved in the event making the news). There have been some occurrences of GMs and Devs getting decloaked in various Polaris ships (at least once even dropping a Polaris frig as loot, though CCP worked out a trade with the person who got that loot), but those were all them watching fleetfights to get an idea of performance. If you want to assert that CCP gave special spy reporter ships to players, you're gonna have to come up with the evidence to back it up.

In the time it took you to write that post you could've searched for it yourself. |

I'm familiar with the IC program. I see nothing in that about special ships.

That's what Ive found besides my own memories of seeing ISD IC in polaris ships. But there's no doubt that you won't take that as "evidence". Should I take the time to petition a written statement form CCP or would you like get off your arse and do something yourself? |

You do realise those are two forum posts detailing the sightings of IDSs in Polaris frigs right? Forum posts from personal experience. What exactly do you think my original post was?
Quote:As for doing something myself, go ahead and Google "Philosophical Burden of Proof." Basically means that if you make a claim (like "ISDs have access to Polaris Frigs"), you have to provide the evidence (like a post saying "Hey, this ISD guy was hanging out in his Polaris frig"). As someone who's simply responding to your claim, until you provide that evidence (as you now have), I am not required to do anything other than say "Show me.".
Thanks for assuming I didn't already know that. But then again I was simply providing input from personal experience (which oddly enough is exactly what the links I provided were doing... you know... the one's you treated as evidence.) Maybe if I'd wished to enter into a drawn out philosophical discussion of the existence of a potato I would've cited several agricultural articles on the cultivation of the Solanum tuberosum plant. Instead I wanted to provide some semi relevant input to a half baked discussion about the apparent human rights violations by a CCP partner. |
