So from what i've seen is that the person that leaked would have had to be someone from SOMER to get this email in the first place and disregarding that because of this action he will lose out on all that "future" sponsorship = moar isk he decided to leak this email? and the person he chose to send it to was The Mittani and all this because he had a stroke of conscience, sounds like a bad movie

People crying over internet spaceships...

From what I've seen the source is anonymous, so nothing to lose here.

No.
People crying over what seems to be a repeat of T20 in terms of devs providing favours to certain groups under the table.

So even Somer himself realize this is a bit shady and wouldn't be taken well when it hits the world, why else would he ask people to be quiet about it and not everyone sell at once. Nicely done there...

What separates this from a dev giving his own alliance blueprints...? I'd be very interested in hearing from CCP what made the decision to do this.

People return to the t20 incident like a sexually abused victim returning to the scene but no matter how much they wash and scrub, it always comes back to haunt them.

Get over it.

Get over it.

Read the previous page of this thread. Entity is merely bad at reading names ;)

CCP already gave Somer billions and trillions thru the Eve Vegas Lottery. There is no use to not believe this new incident.
Plus, why do you fail to understand that scamming and lying ingame is completely different to a lying and favouring game company?

let's take bets on how long it is until an isd closes the thread with some transparent excuse

*sarcasm*But hey maybe this was discussed with CSM and they said it was a good idea...*/sarcasm*

What else has been given we don't know about?

or implying favoritism by a CCP Employee.
Case closed, now for the bans...

At this point, I'm wondering what they'll seed the people who have been working on dotlan, battleclinic, EFT, EVEMon, Pyfa, EVEUni, Goons. I suppose Chribba should be given 7 unique ships GÇö one for each insanely useful site he has contributed to the community.

I am flattered that at the age of 58, I can still be considered 'immature'

Thank you.

Immature or not as the case may be, CCP giving any player corp an in-game advantage is wrong.

most likely either a goon spy or this is just a scam, also it is really easy to fake an email, either way entertaining thread ahead!

You nailed it. Over what seems.

People return to the t20 incident like a *redacted* but no matter how much they *redacted*, it always comes back to haunt them.

Get over it.

Some real data. Not simply a name on a screenshot. Who could be any player behind that character now.
An opportunity for CCP to speak on it to present their view point.

Or are we now judge, jury & executioner now simply because The Mittani says CCP are evil today?
I'm sorry, I don't work like that. I actually work on facts, and allow people to defend themselves first.
Then I'll crucify them if it's justified AFTER they get the chance.

Not simply because one of the most biased EVE news sites with it's own major agenda decides to attack CCP's business.

Lol... of course not

So the numerous posts from goonies saying how Evil somer is, how they are a cover for RMT and how anybody who supports them is a shrill on numerous threads is not going after somer...

Of course :)

Again, no. It's CCP that keep returning to it, as if they were a TV series villain of the week. And yes, no matter how much they wash and scrub, that stain on their history won't go awayGǪ

It's nice that you don't care about the game. Other people do.
Bad analogy time: Imagine a game of soccer. If the ref decides one team can field 15 players and three goalies, and the other team couldn't, people would rightfully get angry at the ref.
It's the same thing here. I'm not even mad at SOMER, because to be honest if CCP asked me if I wanted some expensive stuff I probably wouldn't say no either. I'm mad at CCP for not playing their part of the impartial referee.

This is disgusting hate-speech and is without reproach. How do you even conduct yourself in civilized society?
