The landscape of power in EVE has been undergoing a lot of changes lately, and doing so at an accelerating pace. With what appears to be BoB and D2, and all the combined corporations each name represents facing off in the North, with Redswarm Federation, and an ever increasing number of alliances joining them, facing off against Lotka Volterra in the South.
One of these alliances, have people who work for an Official EVE Online site, and who have cross referenced IPs and log ins to that official site, against IPs and Logins for their Alliance TS, and completely eliminated several spies when doing so.
Want to know more? Keep reading.
Originally by: Blacklight
I have until recently, due to some of my spies all getting ganked at once by various different circumstances, had one of the most comprehensive spy networks in BoB and I want to get it bult back up again.
If you have alts in other corps/alliances can you convo me in game to talk to me about it please.
Those of you with spy alts please also follow this simple set of rules:-
1. Never tell anyone other than yourself and myself that you are running a spy. 2. Never directly refer to any intel you have in corp or alliance comms, always distance yourself from what you know. 3. Never let anyone use that account.
So if you can help me rebuild my spy network let me know please.
I cannot stress how important it is to never tell anyone in game about it even your best online mates, just keep it quiet and feed the intel.

It is a fact that XT uses this forum and the IP adresses of the users to match them against the d2 alliance forum. This is how my alt got uncovered. - by Matuk Jela / BNC - 11.01.2007 9:51

Originally by: "Clizz"
my research revealed that this incident happend (sadly) - ovaron asked one of the staff members who has access to the webserver and the database to give him the IPs of some persons. the staff member told ovaron to talk to me but he refused and he finally got the IPs from an account in this forum. they matched the IPs against multiple forums (e.g. the d2 alliance board) which led to this result.
whats left for me is to say the truth (regardless if ovaron will be angry about this) and I hope that we can get back some credibility for eve-online.de. Ovaron asked me to keep quiet about this but due to all the effort I made for this forum in the last years, I decided to make this public. I personally feel some kind of abused now and so is the member who gave out the IPs.
I want to apologise and hope that this incident won't happen again in the future - otherwise, we could just rename this forum into d2 board. clizz - 15.01.2007 11:13

Interesting, wouldn't you agree? A bit more...

What happened is not that surprising. But to be honest, in the past we had people boasting about their out of game abilities to hack killboards, get illegal forum, killboard, TS etc. access.
Now we see the evolution when things technicaly out of game mechanics, are not only allowed but even encouraged. Remember, no one was forced to register their accounts on eve-online.de and only IP-adresses were checked with IP adresses of D¦ members.
Whoever is now crying out loud, should keep in mind that they are themselves not without guilt.

So they used an offical eve-online resource to get private IP addresses. That seems a bit much, in fact it should get some bans. Thats uncool stuff right there. How do you know they didn't just get IP's after all.

Seems so.. the site is on CCP's name, so this is really bad. Do players also have the same access on eve-online.com? |

As an inconsequential member of D2 I would like an answer as to what happened here. If it is as seems, this a bit out of line. But, as is typically the case, there are some facts that haven't seen the light of day yet. Bueller?

BoB uses out of game methods to spy, D2 uses out of game methods to catch spies. Not sure what the big controversy is.

You're missing the point where players get access to the official userdatabase of a CCP owned website. |

The Difference is that eve-online.de should be a neutral entity. If they would check IP adresses of the BoB board they got with their spies against their own IPs, then it'd be fine, but not using a NEUTRAL, from CCP supported webpage to acquire the IPs and use it for ONE-SIDED purposes.

I think everyone is familiar with how uncomforting it can be to have spys in your alliance, and I've seen folks use methods to try to match up IP's using forums and TS etc in the past in an effort to track down infiltrators, but the thought of it being done through a CCP forum (if my understandings is correct), makes me rather uncomfortable.

BoB uses their forum mods on eve-o to remove Kugutsumens blogs when they are harmfull to them. Just assign a empty D2 account as your scapegoat and all is well. Play to win any way possible wasnt it? We are the best in everything we do and we will win any way possible? Should make future fanfests a lot more fun.

I agree, infact myself and everyone else should stop posting on CCP run forums straight away

O.o
Such actions like this are against everthing we believe as a eve player.
for me this is cheating / exploit.
Since eve-online.de registrat is under CCP, i hope that the same GM/ISD rules will be used.
GameMasters & ISD
One thing is using alliance forums, corp webpages to try to get spys, that i can accept.
But using oficial CCP resources to change EVE in their own advantage...thats sick..... Im very ****ed off as a player about this.

No, BoB use social engineering to spy. That may lead them to be given access to OOG resources (forums / TS /Vent), but that is very different to hacking those resources directly.
This is actually quite a worrying turn of events .. although nowhere near as worrying as the OP's actions. He should have been banned by now.

Oh wait, that's actually uncool too. --- Mandatory disclaimer: These are my thoughts, not my corps/alliances. ---

Trying to win/lose with honor went out the window so now everyone is going as low as they can to get the edge. DDOSing TS servers is the new way to win a war. The only people that will hold 0.0 are people willing to lower themselves to that level. Glorious times ahead, but i think ill take the sideline

I was always under the impression that eve-online.de is a privately run forum board and not an official CCP resource. However if you look at this you will note that CCP owns the domain, but it is fully player driven.
The german community is a very strong one ingame, and this website is one of the best community sites ever. The moderation is great and you have a lot of more freedom of speech than here.
Btw. What D¦ did there lead to loose all their reputation for me. They are not "the good guys" or anything else, just nothing better as this kind of players I am very common with which do not hesitate to cross the RL/game border very far to get an advantage in the game. Forum information like IPs or RL names are RL stuff and in no way connected to the game. People using this are just loosers in RL and also unable play a good game. In the end this type of characters will also loose in EVE.

Heh, brilliant move.
I can't blame D2. If spying is allowed, then counterspying also needs tools to be effective. If that takes a bit of inventive use of IPs and resources, so be it. I have sympathy for any counterspying effort because I consider spies despicable.

So if i understand you right ... Someone in Xtraders basicly owns the IP/site , therefore no rule is broken ?
