You guys are silly. And when I say silly, I mean idiotic.
CCP is not EVER going to admit who the Devs play as, or what they do. PERIOD.
The reason for this is very simple. If a dev admits to being in BOB, everytime bob won a fight there would be a dozen morons on the forums complaining that the DEV cheated. Forget the fact that BOB has like 3k members and a PVP hardon. Thats not relevant to why they won that last fight.

For BoB, also read: ISS, D2, MC, IRON, G, ..... errm actually, I could save time and just post the alliances page.
Many people would rather fling accusations of cheating and hacking rather than face up to the fact that they got owned.
Certainly. I used bob as an example only. I'm sure the devs are in many alliances, and probably have alts in other alliances. They are players, just like you and me.

1) They're sitting on the server, almost literally. At the least they have an optical trunk between CCP HQ and the server farm where Eve is hosted. Lag drops & slow reloads? Not for them, no.
2) There are indeed CCP employees in game corps under falsified identities. They're all in BoB. Except Eris; she's in Contraband.
1). No. You have no concept of what you speak.
2). Shut up. Not because you are giving away secrets. You aren't. because you are a twit. You are.
Also, any idea how much it would cost for a dedicated frame relay line between iceland and london? Now... any idea how much it would cost to have a dedicated fibre? Thats well more than CCP makes in a year for sure.
Do they have dedicated lines. You bet. Are they any faster than your standard office internet or dedicated line? I doubt it.
I would assume a T3 frame relay. Or something on that scale. Maybe even an OC3. But a dedicated Point to point oc3 would cost a few (like 5+) grand a month.
