Originally by: Inertial One thing amazes me.
People are crying because someone petitioned it when they first saw it, and CCP closed the petition without looking into it, which is bad. But you got to realise that they were probably drowning in petitions about towers at that time, because they had just recently been released. So its not unreasonable that they missed it.
Personally I just think it was a excuse for the exploiter, so he could say "I petitioned it and CCP didn't say it wasn't okay", altough anyone with half a braincell can see that it was a clear exploit.
Well RA exploited complexes for months and CCP didn't ban anyone even thought it was obviously an exploit to anyone with an IQ.
I think farming is a hugely different problem than this which ranks among the likes of item or isk cloning.

People need to bare in mind that we dont realyl know for a FACT how long this has been going on, and if CCP was really awear in the long term.
If CCP were not awear of the issue in the long term, then the buck stops with us the player. It's up to us to find and report these things.

fly t1
Scuse me I make T2, this is going to kill margins across the board for all T2 producers.
How? Once the current supply dries up, raised T2 material prices will lead to some of that being passed to the consumer. In the long run T2 ship producers will actualy profit from this.

Nope, sorry not 4 years. Just a couple of weeks.
So how would you know?
No one does for sure, but there is a little saying. Innocent until proven guilty. God forbid we all deal with this situation with reason instead of feeding the mob...

Ah, but we're talking about an exploited bug here. The real question is, how long has it been in existence? Since the POS management screen was given a mini-makeover? Since the very introduction of POS's? Who knows...the sCrapheap poster may or may not be trolling, but tbh I could actually see it being a truthful statement without stretching my sense of incredulity.
Thats just it we don't know. This is why this needs a steady and in depth investigation, which we won't get from the rabble brigade.
In either case, any answers we get are simply a matter of feeding our curiosity now. The damage is done, so one could ask, what does it matter?

Originally by: Bartfast the exploit was reported 4/5 days ago ... to long but not going to make a huge diffrence
there have been claims that it has run for some time before it was discovered
if this is true then the impact is huge
those player that have been rewarded for cheating should be knocked back into the dark ages and out of game where possible.
Any assets that have been bought or gained through the use of these isks should be reomved and any tatical or material advantage set right titans t2 bpos bought ..just a thought
Stations, systems, assets etc that have been taken by force funded by isks that where from an exploit should be reset or returned if this cant be done all assets should be removed and lets have a free for all claiming what we can
RE draw the political map support those players that that support the community and try to play by the rules
To be honest, exploiters by their nature are greedy bastards. You'll probably find they used most of the ISK to fund their own habits and their alliances saw little benifit. (Beyond perhaps their own little circle of close friends)

Originally by: Millenia Fallenwing Edited by: Millenia Fallenwing on 11/12/2008 19:02:18 Band of Brothers alliance have always known about exploits and have always known and used them to their advantage. 20 Large towers in 3 different systems. With the Same setup as listed how to get this exploit.
So i would request. Can someone please prove that BoB did not exploit this, nor were they involved with this. I have no solid proof. However all of the towers are exact same setup, in 3 different systems. Over the past 6 months HUGE amounts of dyspro has been stolen by directors defecting. So only asking who is involved and how that effects other alliance growth.
You do know that some people use reactors on pos's the way they were intended to be used right? We gonna assume that everyone with reactors and silos on a tower has been exploiting now?

Originally by: James Hetfeild Getting free moon candy is bad mmmkay.
Serious question. Was the exploit only viable with ferrojello?
-JCR
I think it would have worked with anything that used a reactor, but came down to a matter of ecconomics as to what ones the exploiters spanked the most.

Originally by: MMXMMX It looks to me that if this went on like 4 years then the only way to survive as a alliance was to participate in the exploit or die .
Like i always read on these forums ADAPT OR DIE !!!!
That gives me the feeling that the all had to do it so not only 1 of the alliances had the big advantage over the rest .
I could be wrong lol
Sometimes the choice to die is the right choice
