Goons are in bother! 
Originally by: Taliesyn
No alliance - not Goonswarm, not Bob, not anyone else - should be in a position where they can have direct access to a dev regarding in-game issues, be they good or bad.
So you want to remove the petition and the convo system in game?
How about not having the ability to call up a dev no matter the reason?

If a member of the EVE community finds he or she cannot accept our current level of transparency, we bid you good luck in finding a company that meets your needs.
I am afraid on this point he is right. This is an extremely difficult issue to address because quite frankly there are things the players never need to see..
Then there are cases when things go so far that if stuff is NOT made public it only perpetuates the perception
I was indirectly involved with quite frankly a case as bad as this over in another game. I have no NDA to prevent me from talking about it as my information came second hand. It lead to the resignation of the AO events director and quite frankly one hell of a coverup in the intrests of not tearing the entire Roleplay situation in that game into pieces.
It involved a simular situation to what has happened here. Player A bragged about director B being an RL friend. Various other events occured and when player C (Significant storyline player.) found out and tried to do something about it he got banned. Player C would not be denyed however going over A and B straight to D Senior ARK Director. C and D played a bit of phone tag got things organized and evidence was presented. At about this time player B attempted to enter said group. And messed up massively. The lynch pin was removed and all hell broke loose. The end result director B was forced to resign (would of been thrown out on his ass and worse for massive NDA violations from what i understand) This in general was covered up by the company because situations like this serve no purpose to those outside of it other than to disrupt and ruin many things in progress. The scale was not as grandiose as what has been alleged here but the point remains the same
Transparency can only go so far without resulting in permament and unnecessary damage for the players and the game.
This being said: I would like to see CCP adopt the following policy. Should a member of CCP be fired for misconduct in the game the termination and the general reason should be posted on the forums. Show players that house cleaning is happening and i think a lot of this calms down.
Though bad form CCP for launching the allegations you have. If you got evidence of it post it ASAP. This would have astounding affects in game if true.

Put on your tinfoil hat but:
3) Why does the first e-mail show the green and red grammar/spelling error squiggles that one usually only finds in a word processor (ie. MS Word) that is currently in edit mode?
Are these really the e-mails that were sent, or have they been "manufactured" to "prove" the allegations baseless?
Of course, all of the above could just be my over active imagination combined with an interest in conspiracy theories 
See the highlighted bit, I'm sure it's something innocuous, but I can see how that could be seen a questionable...any comments? Something to satisfy the tinfoilers.
By the way, Bob, MSN, etc...how's that investigation going?
MS word can be used for emails in conjunction with the outlook program if that was the program used then it would look as you see it there. Just a theory here on why it would look like that. Not everyone uses hotmail and yahoo or gmail. Some prefer a more secure network.

Pretty sure that only happens when you are editing or writing the e-mails though. If you are just looking at mail that has been sent it doesn't do the spelling/grammar check stuff shown in the screen shot.
likely i dont use the system myself but if it was saved then called up (covering your ass is never a bad idea) it might look like that anyway. Also if it was a direct screenshot it would also look this way. Not saying they arent right or wrong. Just giving other explanations than omgconspiracy

1. What email client is showing spell/grammar errors while reading email? I presume GM didn't take, by chance a screenshot while writing an email. I know, it's silly detail, but it bugs me.
As i stated earlier in the thread most likely a combination of MS outlook and MS Word I have very little experience with the program other than it was used to help setup my highspeed ISP and i had a very simular looking window at the time for that situation. My posts on pages 3 and 4 would explain it a bit better.
