You don't give us much of a story, Linus. Were you actually involved in any of the drama you mention? Is there a narrative?
'Ask me anything' is rarely as good as 'It happened like this....'
If your tale goes something like 'Get Roles - Get Rich - Get Out' - we've probably heard about (or done) it ourselves. If there's more to it than that, and you can outdo our own TheInternet TweepsOnline TheInternet - why then, I'm all ears!

Apart from the use of a word which you somehow failed to asterisk-out, I rather enjoyed this diverting piece of drama. I'm not sure that 'enjoyed' is the right word, but you get my drift.
It does occur to me that, in relieving BB of the isk, you will also have affected those people you mention as being not part of the company of folks whom you disparage. I suppose one has to have a sort of 'disconnect' where such issues are concerned.
It was also a failure on the part of the leadership not to spot this coming several leagues off - if not from you then certainly from some other disaffected party.
Internal politics and ego-trumpeting seem to dilute or destroy the effectiveness of many corps and alliances in EVE. My own theory is that the people who adopt roles in such organisations are not always qualified to do so. Even in RL organisations such tensions exist, but they're usually held at bay by having people who are very good at what they do and at managing people. The opportunities to walk away with cash in a RL organisation - even for a Director - are necessarily limited.
It's difficult to know who to trust in this game. They say 'trust no-one', but at some point you do have to give people access to stuff which has some value. You can only do this on the basis of past behaviour; the rest is up to fate.
I'd forgotten about the Pirate thread; haven't looked at it for months (?years). It certainly sounds that sort of story, though I maintain it's an embellished Roles-Rob-Run tale. Entertaining (that's the word!) stuff Linus; good luck with your small fortune!

It's pocket change, really.
Your 'pocket change' would see me through a rather lengthy campaign of Code-enforcement. Pocket change indeed sir. I must be poor, or something.
p.s.
Not a begging letter.....

This is not a surprise at all really. Democracy irl and in games pretty much always fails in the end. 10 people with good intentions < 1 person with a vision and a few loyal captains.
I suppose Democracy has a chance of working in peacetime (irl), but has absolutely no chance of working in a war situation. Even nominal 'democracies' in wartime have had to allow for 'streamlining the decision-making process', in order to be functional in the drastically altered environment.
In EVE - where war is a hard-wired constant - it's most unlikely that decisions relating to warmongering will be subject to broad discussion and balloting. Fine for the day-to-day non-critical stuff, perhaps.
