So you're saying that you're a bad person since you made the same choice, then. Does bluffing in poker make you a bad person and a compulsive liar? No, because I do not lie to, or steal from people. The OP listed a clear situation where she was lied to with the intention of ruining her gameplay. I make the choice to not treat people like that. Am I bad person for something? Of course. We're all imperfect in one way or another. Mine just happens not to be my interaction with people. And since I make the choice to treat others fairly and with respect so long as they demonstrate their objective isn't to try and hurt me, that makes me a good person. I do not play poker. Any reference you choose to make about poker I will remind you with the fact that it is a game I do not play.
You are an arrogant ass hole, which makes you a bad person. |

No, I think that one will last them quite a while. No, the mechanic by which they are scamming CCP into not banning them, which is most definitely breaking the spirit of the rules. And if they ever do make the impact they claim to want to make we'll see, but they will probably eventually realize that they are only depriving themselves of content by harassing newbies. And may grow some balls for shooting wars eventually. You speak of technicalities when you should be talking about the massive gray area that is left in the interpretation of EULA regarding harassment and griefing. The gray area and ingenuity of griefers to utilize existing game mechanics is why, from my viewpoint, GM's can't be arsed to do anything. I have yet to hear of a case where an actual line has been drawn.
Prime example of this is to go 1 jump from virtually any rookie career agent system and you'll see a flashy yellow "pro pvper" farming newbies who don't know better. There have been topics discussing this emergent form of game play not far back.

Thats like saying if they where bad guys IRL, they wouldn't need to boost their ego by being a bad guy in EVE.

Not surprisingly, it's the same character flaws that make people like that crap up a thread that makes the game unenjoyable for the very same people. They never seem to quite figure out that the problem is them, not the game (or the people simply telling them the truth on the forums). |

Personally I feel the recurring theme of people landing in EvE and then railing against it's mechanics is one of a failure in education.
If CCP had a stark Tutorial #1 (like so), combined with an 'acceptance', there would be much less knock-on sperging later on...
We have all seen this in real life, tell a client up front about 'paper-cuts' and they are seen as paper cuts. Hide them in the short term for them to discover on their own (like crushing TiDi..ahem), and they are perceived as grievous arterial wounds.

Because they're bad people. CCP set up an environment where bad people can do bad things. Being unable to do bad things IRL because of consequence, they flock to this game as an outlet to be their true selves. But that's what makes people like you and I that much better at life and for the game. Because even in a cesspool of filth, we remain clean. They're illogical and irrational. There's no other explanation. Trying to understand is a waste of your time.
There's no such thing as bad or good people. |

You'd think that would work, but the last decade and a half of my own IRL experiences lead me to believe that it's just not true.
In game as in IRL some things are self evident, rules are posted and easily accessible and any amount of common sense would keep people out of trouble or away from situations where they'd be victimized. Yet time and time and time again I and people like me deal with easily avoidable situations involving people who didn't spend a single second of their time thinking about their situation or the consequences of their choices.
In other words, CCP could introduce mechanaics that would warn people EVERY single time they undocked that they are undocking into a situation where loss can occur, they can make the tuttorial as close to the real EVE experience as possible ect ect and people will STILL complain about the nature of the game and it's mechanics and the in-game policies of CCP (a company made of vikings, by vikings, making a game FOR VIKINGS)

I know for a fact that there is a spreadsheet that lists the names of all permit holders, and who sold them the permit.
Whether or not the spreadsheet is available to all New Order permit inspectors and still actively maintained would be a question that only CODE. members can answer.

I'm unfamiliar with Jared Lennox, it's been a while since I was an active participant in the NO chat channel. It may be that he's unaware of the existence of the records, has no access to the records for security purposes or that they are no longer maintained, either way permit holders are required to place a note in their bio listing the date of purchase and the agent who sold them it.
Any queries you have about the New Order's records would probably be best aimed at James 315, he'll be able to tell you whether or not the New Order still keeps a record of payments made for permits, if it's available to all agents or if the records are still actively updated.

That is EXACTLY my point. They are no longer being maintained, so they have no way of knowing who actually has a permit or not. |

That's my post on their forums that you are taking the reply from. I have called them out, They are full of ****. That is just an excuse. You refuse to believe what we already know, and that NO is actually quite unorganized, and has no clue about who has a permit and who doesn't. They failed at maintaining their own records. They are incompetent at best. If EVERY member had a copy of the record, there would be no need for fear of retaliation against permit data holders, as everyone would have the information, so that is logic fail.

The issue isn't retaliation against agents or anyone who has access to that list. The issue is retaliation against the people on the list itself. It is incredibly easy to become a new order agent which is part of the point of the movement's design. We want people all over high sec to take matters into their own hands and represent NO. Making such a list accessible to anywhere close to the majority of agents would lead to insanely easy targeting of permit holders. Having the permit in the bio is dangerous enough, but handing our enemies a list of targets would be particularly stupid.
