@OP, submit a petition with details of the Wiki page.
It was impersonation, Chribba's wiki got damaged and someone impersonated him as vouching for fake 3rd parties. A CCP Employee just locked the page, The same will happen to this. Most will happen is a rule will be put in place stopping scamming from happening through the wiki.

I don't think it was a CCP employee who locked the page because it keep getting different edits like "PRON IS BEST PRON", "don't get rekt", "DD got dunked" etc.
Exactly you said it yourself, It was indirect impersonation. Anyone with a brain can click a single button and see that the edits were made by neutral characters. For extra cookie points you would notice that the lock button was forged.
Good luck with the petition |

Which is in case of CCP/ISD employees is forbidden by the EULA. So we'll see who will be laughing in the end.
Hardly as the name of the character who editted the page is named derp mcgeeee, and trolface d1ngus. No CCP/ISD in the name therefore not impersonation.
Ninjaedit: Also No CCP was impersonated as there was no CCP name mentioned |

And that someone might insert an image that says "Locked" inside the body of a page when the page actually isn't locked at all ... in EVE of all games! I am shocked. (If you have trouble following me - compare the location of the "Locked" image in an actually locked page like https://wiki.eveonline.com/en/wiki/EVElopedia_policies and in the fake "locked" page http://wiki.eveonline.com/en/wiki/3rd_PartiesOn the "3rd party" page it is just an image that has been inserted into the page body, the same way you would insert any other image. ISDs had no part in this.) CCP's official wiki as a scam means - I think not the best way for it to be used, especially if all the fake ISD referances are made by the scamming players. Besides, acting as a CCP (maybe even ISD) representative while not actually being one might be forbidden by the EULA, not totally sure though, needs checking. Anyway, this thread is not a discussion of how dumb my corp mate acted or a call for justice, it's just a warning to all other players which might fall for the same scam. So now the wiki page got edited, which means the creators suspect that might not be totally legal. I'm totally sure CCP has page edit histroy logs, so it might be worth a petition just in case.
Just because barracuda said its ccp's official wiki doesn't make it so, The wiki page said contact ISD Something to get your name added, no where did it say the person who added the line of text was ISD Something so therefore its not really impersonation.

Unfortunately the page got edited and I did not save a screenshot, but I'm 100% sure CCP has the change log for it, which can be used for investigation. The other indirect evidence of that action being illegal is that the page got edited almost immediatly after the scam, that means the creators suspect themselves for violating EULA. Otherwise, why the hell would they do that? Please go through the page history and show us where it mentioned ISD support.
Exactly your friend was dumb enough to trust a forged wiki page. Deal with it. Also can i use his erebus on the test server? |

Xavier Higdon wrote:I'm all for losers scamming in EvE. It gives people someone to point and laugh at. Going so far as to edit the Wiki to perform a scam, and then edit it again to hide, is something that should definitely be considered for banning those that do it. In game we protect the new player systems, while allowing scammers to spam local in hubs, the idea being that when you finally make that trip you should be experienced enough to avoid the scams. The Wiki, however, should be holy ground. It is, in its entirety, a new player resource. It exists for the sole purpose of providing basic info to new players. Exploiting the wiki in such a manner has the potential to adversely impact EvE in a manner that in game scams never could. People on trial accounts probably visit the wiki every day, it's the page the in game browser opens. Now imagine if people started editing it in a manner to nudge new players into a specific Corp. Is it ok for TEST to edit the corporation page, stating that their member corps are the only officially supported corps? Can they edit the alliance page to say that the Goons are known scammers that prey on new players? Can someone edit the page on RMT so that it appears to be a supported service, providing easy to follow links to one of the many RMT services out there? Can I create wiki pages about players I don't like? After all, so long as I don't embed the official CCP or ISD tag I'm not actually impersonating them, right?
Your whole entire post is ******** as CCP have rules specifically for the wiki to counter these points. Scamming however isn't banned from being on wiki. Thing is they person who editted the wiki never 'impersonated' anyone they just put a ISD name in the post and told them to mail them so yeah. |
