There is the test server and a bunch of players who trying to contribute to the cause.

Originally by: Rod Blaine Oh, you really did miss it ?
Sorry then.
Yes they are allowed to play, in fact i think some of them might even be required to actually.
Their accounts are also continuously checked for abuse btw.
Thanks but is that fair for the rest of the community, dont they suppose to have a better knowledge of the game because they can actually adjust it to their liking?

Originally by: Stitcher Besides which, who would enforce it if it WAS illegal? To the best of my knowledge, there is no law in iceland that prohibits the creators of a game from playing that game.
I mean, that's like prohibiting a musician from hearing himself playing.
Huh if it was illegal then someone should be able to enforce it. But its not illegal for devs to play with their devs accounts i guess.
What i was asking was if devs are not allowed to play the game with another character that actually doesnt show that they are devs.

Sure, but i bet i still beat the guy in charge of pixelshading when it comes to finding officer spawns :p
Most devs work on some obscure stuff that's got very little to do with stuff that could give them an advantage.
Like complexes or BPO's for example . I am sure you can test that on sisi

According to what was posted by various devs in various threads, they are allowed to play the game with another account/character than their dev character. If there's public connection made between these two (i.e. someone figures what 'regular character' a dev has and posts it all over some public forum) then the regular character is being put out of game. (they can't do that to developer's "dev character" because people would still figure out easily Tuxford under name Drofxut is the same guy because he's still tweaking the ship balance and such ... so it's the 'regular characters' that get the axe in such case)
So they are not allowed to play with another char besides that of the developer?? Iam confused really

Thats what iam afraid man. Thats unfair for several reason that i wont explain here since you are all very smarts peeps.
Now to clarify something, i love this game i like it the very much and thats why iam playing and i thing everyone done a great job with it, but saying that the devs can play the game with a non dev char that they cant reveal to the rest of community that alone holds some dangers and correct me if iam wrong.
Something else that strikes me as odd is although most of you agree that the devs should play the game but noone mentioned why they need to hide their characters if the only thing they do is improving the game.
and last ofc its an ethical matter and not legal but lets not forget that the world is what we make of it and not what the laws dictates.
