If you need to scout event locations, use Chaos? If you need to test an Event, use Chaos? If you need to do something that will look the slightest bit suspicious to "We're at war and shoot everything...wait, why won't you die?" people, do like most other MMOG developers do:
Use the Test server?
Oh and if you don't already have the functionality, start asking for invisibility? Sa***uarding it from abuse is simple. Trust me

TBH, the whole thing is suspicious to me. As Jash said, why not use Chaos?
I'm sure SA and FA and all the other A' would be equally suspicious if they noticed this, it just so happened that that it occured in CA space first.
And seriously, why would you have an event in a warzone where CA members will kill all non-ca members?? That's just not smart, and this whole thing is fishy. ------------------------------------------- If you kill them, they will die!

If they need to check where roids are for events (as an example), they may need to be on Tranq. Not sure, but I doubt Chaos belts are the same as Tranq. _______________________________________________________________________

Is that possible? Wouldn't testing something out, or scouting locations on Chaos be useless since the conditions on TQ are different?
Like, for example, a few months down the road someone has a player built station in a particular system on TQ (but not on Chaos), and an event is planned for TQ on Chaos in that system - not really practical.
I could be wrong

1) Chaos is not always available. It can be a hassle in that regard.
2) Chaos doesn't have the player centers that TQ has... and sometimes that is what we need to scout. It makes no sense to have an event for no people, or for just 1 or 2. Or to have it for a group of people, in a really unworkable area.
The suggestion is a good one, but not an all-encompassing one. --- Lead Event Producer Hobbes The Aurora Project |

... You can guard it from abuse, but can you guard it from the "Oh my god, the place is slightly more laggy today... there IS a hidden Polaris member here abusing their power to spy so their corp buddies can get us!" paranoia and following* string of petitions and accusations on the forum? ;s

canned response is autoreply. this is unfortunately going to be a furball, because scouting the area for an event and tipping evol off to the mining op are sadly not mutually exclusive activities. I don't like it either but we're going to have to be patient for a bit.

it was a polaris volunteer doing what he is meant to be doing, not someone in SA using the char to scout CA belts. If u cannot accept that then u need to grow up alittle bit or ****off to another game, because EVE doenst need people like u accusing polaris volunteers of things like that.
Just for the record we (SA) also have visits from devs's, GM's, polaris volunteer's etc and we always welcome them because we know they are only doing there job

Wow... the hatred!
I'd like to point out something... the original claim of abuse by Lallante never says anything like "And after Kerren left, Evolution made a beeline right for us. And they showed that they had obvious advance knowledge."
Yes, if a volunteer was scouting out an area, and then player forces were making use of that info, there would be hell to pay. But it didn't happen. All that we have are baseless accusations.

Openness. While ever you Polaris people don't make public who your regular characters are, almost nobody will believe your protestations of innocence.
Unfortunately, CCP doesn't let you do that, so you're bad burnt or scalded.
Look at people's general IRL opinion of their politicians. Unless a politician can prove, categorically and beyond all question, that all of his actions are entirely honest, it's routinely assumed that he is a crook.

As a newbie, just started a few days ago, I'd like to just say I'm a bit surprised by this whole craziness. I read the original post, and thought nothing of it. But when I saw that the topic had been altered by a moderator... That was just ... I'll be honest, I've never seen that on a professional forum before.
It seems that by playing this silly game of locking topics, you only make it look more like you are not mature enough to handle authority. I don't doubt that the volunteer had nothing to do with any spying, but your behavior is surprising in response.
You can continue to lock topics and pretend to sweep things under the rug with these crazy "email support" posts, but I really don't think you're doing yourselves any favours.
My 2 cents.

What hatred? I would certianly expect a team lead to be a little less paranoid, 'cause i'm really weirded out now. Clipping things out of context and, what, trying to convince us that we're all just out to get you for no reason? This is just unbelievable.

Out of sight, out of mind.
People will always accuse volunteers/GMs of less than legit behavior. It's part of the job. About 99% of what's publically suspicious is, in fact, them just doing their jobs. 99% of what is illegal behavior is never seen. Cleaned up quietly and efficiently.
I don't know what the Polaris was doing in CA and honestly I don't care. In the end it's his word vs someone else's, until proven otherwise. Guess what? In a fair world, the word of 2 individuals bear equal strength for both parties: nothing or everything.
So regardless of what may/may not have taken place the suggestions were given on good faith, backed by experience: Out of sight, out of mind. Quite simply put: nobody would have been any wiser if he wasn't ever seen.

It's also dictated by CCP. Polaris don't lock and delete topics because they want stuff kept quiet; they do it because CCP rules dictate that certain topics are not to be discussed here.
They don't even get paid for taking all this abuse, so we ought to be grateful someone's selfless enough to do it. I've been recommended for Polaris and I wouldn't touch it with a 10-AU pole.

Pass me over, I could care less actually. But, does that mean passing over one whole block of players as been suggested? IS that fair?

Would any of you like some cheese with your whine?
SA knows where CA mines, CA knows where we mine to be sure. I would assume Evol would also know.
Does CA have something to hide that would require them to NOT want a Polaris member or GM nearby?
But wait, I guess that means the Polaris I've seen in Amarr, must be scouting it too for hmmm lets see - The __________ Corporations (you fill in the blank) war with The ____________ (you fill this one in too).
But wait, I dont want to make you guys not feel speciiiiiiiiiialllll (church lady voice).

I have a bookmark for you. This one will help you find your head, so you can pull it out of your sphincter.
Apparently "offensive" posts only get changed when ccp doesn't find them amnusing, or something? This guy's done nothing but troll and spew bile across every thread. He hasn't added a single damn thing to the conversation; hasn't even posted a decent rant. Just these 6-year-old insults.
Since everyone gets treated equally, can Eris come down and orange-out all his posts now?
But hey, congrats once more to the CCP PR machine! After IGN (?) rekindled my interest in the game, you've managed to sour me on the whole thing again in less than a week. wtg gg! Make sure to keep putting us in our place and letting the kiddies troll all over us, that'll show us

Sorry, BH, I couldn't resist. 
Seriously tho, enough of a racket has been caused prolly to have them rewriting policy for a week now. I like wielding sledgehammers too, as evident from some of my posts.
I think the message prolly came across 5x5 by now, no?

Compliment taken. Thanks. 
I think it wasnt a complement, I think it was something totally different indeed but since english is not my native language I may have misunderstood it.

I was just wondering if Polaris event staff ever assists the GM's and developers during the investigations of cheat/exploit petitions.
Perhaps there was an entirely legitimate reason for one of CCP's volunteer staff being in "CA" space in the area of a "CA" mining operation.

Actually it's interesting who posted replies to this thread though isnt it? Grid Exploit |

I don't quite follow your logic.... dare I use the word. I was simply wondering about an alternative explanation to the eveningÆs events.

Quote: Hobbes:
I did not read the original post pre edited, I dont realy care what the truth of the matter is HOWEVER:
1: Altering a posts title is a bad idea. If the title is offending remove it and inform that ythat has been done.
2: Altering contents of a post is also a very bad idea but altering a posted log is right out...
Who owns this board? Is it Fester Addams? Why, no, surprisingly enough it isn't. Is it CCP? Yes, I do believe it is.
Nobody cares a pair of fetid dingo's kidneys what rules YOU think ought to apply here. If CCP/devs/gms/polaris want to do something, they can and they will, and what you or I might think of it is worth considerably less than the average lifespan of a moth in the middle of a supernova.

We do our own independant investigations. Anything else could be conflict of interest.

Because "CA" people (amongst other alliances) have asked us for events outside of empire space. Mining operations in 0.0 take big manpower. So, those locations rank up there on the map of 'players in space'. --- Lead Event Producer Hobbes The Aurora Project |

Baldour Ngarr:
If CCP and Polaris is smart they do care what I think, they also care what you think and what random person x thinks.
What I posted has to do with their credibility.
If you alter posts without notifying that you do in some posts how can we the paying customers know that they dont do it often?
Like I posted, I dont care what the truth of the matter is, what I care about is that it gives polaris a bad reputation.
Poilaris needs to be above suspition, you do not become that by doing things such as altering posts made by players.
If you read my post you will see that I dont say they should not remove offensive stuff, I say that they should not alter posts and not inform that they have done so.
Lastly then, maby it is true that what you think of it "...is worth considerably less than the average lifespan of a moth in the middle of a supernova." but I hope that is not true because if it is then this game is already dead in the ether.

usually when devs etc alter posts they put there name in the post and sometimes a reason why they altered it. Clearly this hasnt been done this time..maybe he/she forgot to do it, but whatever the reason theres still no need for some of the abusive posts/comments in this thread

This is why one does not hire the Amarr nor the Brutor for customer service.
 game? customers? paid accounts? Are we supposed to be impressed by promises of the iron fist and the trains will run on time? on a GAME BOARD?
great. whatever floats your apoc.

Hi
If someone from Polaris has abused their "powers", you should report this through support. The email is [email protected]. They will investigate it and take action if necessary.
I don't know what the topic of this thread was before, but if a mod decided it was offensive and should be changed, then it probably was. And the current topic seems to describe the thread rather well.
If a moderator changed someones post without either emailing that person, or writing a "edited by.." line, then I have to apologise. It's in our rules that they should notify people of changes we make in their post either by email, sending a warning or write in the post that it was changed.
