Rev.
Blatant doctoring of a current game screenshot with an Info Screen of a beta module.
Cut & paste is a wonderful thing.. If only TTI brought more to the game recently.
Seems they've decided to become the big joke of Eve.
LEEEEERRRRRRRRRRROOOOOOOOOYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY! |

Those photos are designed to make silly people look silly by beleiving them at their own expense. Simple.

Ends, if only that were true.
I believe it was a calculated attempt to get GM's/Polaris entangled in suspicion and rancor.

TTI is trying to make forum newbies and the real newbies see them and say "WOW TTI HAS GREAT STUFF, I'M GONNA JOIN THEM!"
Despite the fact most of that wicked cool tech5 stuff hasnt been seen since P6 started in beta. -rei _________________________ Trolling is bad. Please dont do it. -rei |

well at least half the people on this board are good, half the people who non-RPG replied and got the thread locked in amazingly swift time by Pann..... (OMFG three posts in 3 days, whats going on) are good
SO JUST WHO ARE U LYING TOO TTi? Us or have the devs given u unfair advantage? Or did a bug appear and you exploit it? and not report it?
Gotta be one of the three........

Exploits aren't punished enough, IMHO.
A number of people have admitted to using exploits and not a damn thing has been done.

Look at the screenshot closely. There is no way it is doctored. The X's are the drones (post-beta) and the info area is transparent, showing the mining lasers of the battleship behind it.
Everyone knows the grand story line includes Jovians. It's not that unusual to expect the best items to find their way to the wealthiest corps.

Neptunus,
The vast majority of that screenshot is real.
However, the Info Box can be made transparent quite easily by using layers and opacity in Photoshop.

If you open Photoshop and zoom into the "x" on the Info Box you'll notice a lot of suspicious artifacts.

Edited by: Razin on 06/08/2003 20:34:19 The screenshot is probably from the beta since the "Current Location" information is on the wrong side of the screen
And the artifacts around text are there on every screenshot.

The location can be put in the upper right by rclicking "Align Right" on the menu bar.
Everyone else in TTI can see it plain as by examining one another's hangars. I doubt everyone in TTI is a bunch of liars - they have always been excellent businessmen.
As for why it is in the fiction section, I don't think that is because it was a hoax. I think they were trying to put a rp story around the event, so I commend them for that.
I am sure if all this turns out to be true all you "TTI are cheaters" people will have some serious egg on your face.

This,
"Cut & paste is a wonderful thing.. If only TTI brought more to the game recently.

This,
"TTI is trying to make forum newbies and the real newbies see them and say "WOW TTI HAS GREAT STUFF, I'M GONNA JOIN THEM!"
And this,
"SO JUST WHO ARE U LYING TOO TTi? Us or have the devs given u unfair advantage? Or did a bug appear and you exploit it? and not report it?"
Made me question today wether mankind was actually capable of going to the moon.

tti do not have those mining lasers, the best mining lasers currently able to be bought in game are the cu vapors.

So have TTI actually responded in any kind manner or do they just post responses like those above?
I was under the impression TTI where ok, with the TTI nexus, thats a great gift to the community, but why do I see such ignorant responses like the two TTI members that just posted above?
forgive me if i missed any decent interactivity offering an explanation from you TTI, but it's polite to explain peoples beliefs than be so pig ignorant about it, does'nt really air much trust.

I see a lot of people worried that an "unfair" advantage is not on their hands. And believeing this was once heralded as a very mature community...

We have said numerous times that we didn't lie about this and if you read Ragnars Venal at dusk post in the intergalactic summit and take away the RP parts its entirely true.
But people keep with the assinine comments without thinking for themselves.
Hence the the above post by teh necro. _______________________________________________2005.05.02 03:56:57combatYour Mega Pulse Laser II perfectly strikes Sansha's Battletower, wrecking for 1190.5 damage._ |

Well, from reading today's CSM logs, it seems that TTI was near a Jove ship that exploded and droped that.
Now I wonder how TTI managed to find a Jove ship, and why the ship exploded.
The DEV's did say that the items would be removed from game, but what about all the minerals they have been able to mine since finding that? _________________________________________________

Edited by: Doc Brown on 07/08/2003 00:55:15 Also, I think that there should be some ban's of people who used and/or got their hands on them. _________________________________________________

Doc,
TTI did not obtain this device from a Jovian ship. We purchased it from an individual in the game. He claims a Jovian gave it to him. CCP logs will verify we paid alot of money for this device and obtained it legitimately.
You can read about it here:
http://oldforums.eveonline.com/?a=topic&threadID=24366&page=5
I posted a long statement on page 5 which describes how this occurred. We bought the item from another player. Thats it. No great conspiracy or anything.

Good explanation...it holds as much weight to me as the guy's explanation should have held with you (i.e.: NONE)
Conspiracy or not, I don't think you guys are stupid. That's why I think people should be banned. You guys know that tech level 5 items should not be in game yet. What, the dev's decided to skip levels 2-4 and jump to 5?
