Please get a clue first what you are talking about. Throwing alliance-names into this discussion is not very constructive, especially when you have no clue about MM and Tribute and MM's income as you just have proven. Sometimes I wish all those forum-geeks would come into 0.0 so I have the opportunity to beat the livin hell out of them.
Unbelievable. Jesus...
Here is what I know about Tribute: its a crap bit of space with few resources that can in no way even begin to support the bill for your POS fuel
Here is what i know about MM: they own 10+ titans, hundreds of dreads, dozens of moms, trillions of ISK right there
so you tell me, how exactly did an alliance with the worst real estate in eve outwardly become one of the wealthiest entities?
I don't think we need an doctorate in economics to work that one out...
I'm quoting this, so I can rub it in his face later.

careful what you say, or CCP might just find a little too much ferrogel in your hangar 
Perhaps you should pack a little more ferrogel in your own hanger, it might keep you from acting so butthurt all the time.  ===== * Now I know how George Washington felt when Napoleon bombed him at Pearl Harbor. - Beast Boy |

CCP still haven't learned that trying to cover stuff up is not a good idea.
We want the truth and we'll dig for it till we get it.
You DO realize that if CCP wanted to fund an alliance, all they have to do is click a button right?
People can be so stupid.

Originally by: RedSplat Anyone notice how the vast majority of people saying 'stop whining' or being less than critical of CCP conduct are either anonymous alts or BoB aligned?
Any one else notice how stupid he is?
Yup.
Yes. And I'm neither a alt or BOB aligned.
CCP has no motive to purposely allow this loophole. If you think they would have to jump through these kind of hoops if they were inclined to make cash selling isk themselves is just simply LOL.
I doubt the report some years ago was specific to these events. However, if it were there would be no reason for them to sweep it under the rug. In fact, if they had, why would they plaster it across the front page now? Really, get a grip. A much more likely scenario would be that a GM looked at the petition, tried to reproduce it and screwed it up, and figured someone was jerking his chain.  Regardless I'm sure that vague report will be turned inside out, witnesses and long lost relatives will come out of the woodwork looking for attention, and CCP haters will unite once again.
And yes to the more hysterical segment of our population the only ramifications of this mess (unless you are in direct completion for the reactions in question) is that you got better prices on your T2 ships, so calm down.
Jebus, people are lemmings sometimes.

Originally by: MyOwnSling I wouldn't know, I don't post there.
And neither did your alt, or indeed any MM alt. Oh no, you're an honourable alliance 
Hang in there, eventually "someone" will pay attention to your rants, other than to laugh at you.
Hey, anything's possible....

have you even read the thread? the 'cream' of MM are on maximum damage control, its hilarious
i need more popcorn
How odd. I always though that a prerequisite for employing damage control was for there to actually be damage done.

Quote: It also doesn't surprise me that both Eris and Kieron both posted in a 2005 thread discussing this issue.
Frankly, I don't see anything in that thread discussing this issue at all. I see a reference to an exploit that the poster's corp suffered from and petitioned. I must have missed the reference to free moon minerals and what a burden they are.

And this proves your point how?
How does your trolling contribute to this thread?
The issue I have raised is that CCP go to great lengths to ignore any reports of problems, and don't put in the effort to understand them. If they had this issue would not have gone on for 4 years.
I edited something into that post as an after thought that may make you reconsider. Truth to tell, I'm not the troll here.
In fact, let me put that edit here for you.
Edit: If you look at his post closely, you will see that he quotes statement a dev made about CCP's reimbursement policy for losses. Please tell me why he would quote that if the petition he mentions is about free moon minerals. It makes absolutely no sense.
This is a classic example of "If you throw enough crap on the floor, someone will fall for it".

I think you're trying to read a bit too much into my post. Reread what I wrote in that sentance.
While the 2005 thread is about CCP handling petitions poorly. Maltroc did say that he emailed Kieron about the exploit as the petitions he'd filed had been ignored or misunderstood by the GM who dealt with it.
There are two people that have publically stated that they reported the exploit. It makes me wonder how many people reported the exploit and were ignored.
I'm only pointing out that the QA on bug testing, reporting and petitions needs to be improved.
You seem to be focused on some conspiracy involving CCP which has nothing to do with my post.
And what I am saying is that people are taking as fact wild claims that this exploit has been going on for years, and that CCP ignored petitions about it... pointing at this thread and that post in particular.
Now that you are saying that the point you were trying to make has nothing "directly" to do with the topic being discussed in this thread, that's fine. To get back on topic then "ahem", lets see the proof that this was petitioned years ago. Some mention of it, some post, a single shred of evidence will do. And no, taking the word of people that got banned for using this exploit isn't good enough to qualify as "evidence", not by a long shot.

Quote: As for the use of this exploit, so far it has been Evoke and MM admitting it.
Your post was well thought out, but one minor correction. MM was not involved in this in any way.

Point made. I also have been playing this game for years now. Did not know about the exploit till today. I guess you can throw me into the mix as well. Considered one of the culprits as a friend for many months. Only in recent months did we have a falling out. My interest peak about his situation after I found his suposed renting of 0.0 space. Well guess what ? He was part of this fiasco. I can assure you his involvement was on for only months.
And I can believe you. It is reasonably to assume that not everybody that did it became awareof it at the same time. It is not like this was a great conspirancy. It is more like a disease. I can clearly imagine people in awe discovering about it and deciding to keep their mouths shut,and the phenom spreading as more people get interested in moon materials.
It is a matter of statistics. People need to perform an unlikely task and notice the results. The chances are not in favor of this, but as the number of people interested increase the chance of at least a few of them discovering the exploit increases dramatically.
I have a good excuse to not have noticed, I never tried to assemble a moon mining POS. Maybe that was your case too. Maybe you did assemble a moon mining POS, but did it in a way the exploit didn't appear as ceratinly most people did. But it was the CCP's employees' duty to experiment. It is unexcusable that THEY didn't notice it for so much time. That is the whole reason why they are allowed to play in questionable circumstances.
Or it can just as easily indicate that this has not been going on for a long period of time. See how easy it is to take vague and convoluted logic and make whatever point you wish out of it.
