I was on after down time, fiddled around , moved some assets, plugged in some implants on a blank clone, did a little ratting, you know, typical kind of chores.

Checked on iClone, and all my assets are back where they started, implants are still in the hangar, and no . Just wondering if API is borked, or a rollback thing happened.

EVE doesn't do rollbacks, its the delay in the API.

To be historically correct and if my memory doesn't trick me,
they did it ONCE, a long time ago, when CONCORD took a day off.

Most likely just a API delay.

I don't think they did it then but even further back.

And IIRC, CCP said due to their experience with that, it will never happen again.

i was there for the concord malfunction.. they didnt roll back but i remember them suspending accounts of people who were ganking people in hi sec.

Well that's BS. If it was the game bugging out that's not the fault of the players. Disappointed to hear that.

This was not an isolated thing.

If CCP tells you that a certain action is considered an exploit and you go ahead and do it anyway, you learn what 'consequences for your actions' really means.

Plenty more examples of this from over the years. EVE attracts the type of people who try to get away with whatever they can in twisting game mechanics into something they were not intended to be. It's good for the game but can come back to bite you on the ass if you push it too far.

I guess I don't know what "too far" means, sometimes.

For persistent problems like the old POS cycle exploit that makes good sense. For an isolated glitch it doesn't seem very sandboxy. Everyone should always be on their toes in EvE. I guess I don't know what "too far" means, sometimes.

Well, Gogela, I'll tell what too far means to me.

First off, someone discovers a clever exploit and uses it to their advantage. (Have to give the Little Bees credit here. They're probably the best at this) Then as the word gets out and more people start doing it, CCP decides they don't like it and announce that until they can fix it, they will ban people for using it.

But the little dweebs that can't think for themselves and discover these things before they are considered exploits cry 'unfair' and go ahead and do it anyway and get themselves banned. That's the pushing it part.

As to the one off things like concord taking a day off , it's only common sense to not take advantage as you know it's going to get you a vacation as well if you run around ganking everything with immunity. It's a game breaker. Granted, common sense is in short supply in this game, but CCP can not be held responsible for the stupidity of some of their players.

...outside the bounds of what is expected..

So just because the police are on strike for one day makes it okay to go outside mugging people left and right? Because that's what you're saying.

Within the context of EvE, that's exactly what I'm saying. It's a game. Like GTAV. You know that you are not actually in a real spaceship right? Do you understand that? Might be something you want to give some thought to. Not tellin' ya what to do. Just sayin'

Do you blow people up in real life? Maybe you should visit that link for yourself there, guy.

I don't think they did it then but even further back.
