Hey remember the years worth of ferrogel found in corp hangars of stations BOB lost in period basis during the Tortuga fiasco?
Not such a great mystery anymore 
Yeah it was pretty awesome when we got all that back out when we recaptured the stations from failtuga. I have some stuff in AZN area that I want to get soon too!

Why aren't you banned yet? Hey, new name for your alliance: Band of Banned. Nice ring, dontcha think? 
unfortunately for you, jokes aren't funny unless they have a bit of truth in them.
True, I figger a dozen peeps might be banned, at most. Probably all of them alt accounts anyway.
But yeah, the new BoB moniker is too fitting.
Oh, and snag those super-rare faction ships & give them to people who actually earn them, not cheat their way to financial exclusivity.

Agreeing with the bobbit (however much it pains me) There are people admitting to using this exploit if you look, and it's not BOB.

I was wondering why people would run POSes using fuel not found within 25 jumps from the tower itself. Guess I know now as gallente seems to be the one to use to maximize the isk/effort in this exploit 
The cool thing is.. CCP does backups every DT. Which mens they can just restore it to an inhouse server and do the proper thing.
Offlining the stuff just before news hit the fan shouldn't let people off the hook because they got early warning from those 'in the know'.

Hmm reply from CCP will probly go something like its not a bug its a feature we just considered it low priority until now but we have decided to remove ghost moon mining from the game.
We have investigated this matter fully and in light of xmas 2 weeks away are taking no action whatsoever.
Merry xmas

Perhaps the patch was delayed as CCP had to upgrade the hardware that runs the forums due to the incomming Threadnought.

Some math..
4 years is 35040 hours of production of a pos.
if ferrogel price was 30.000 isk / pu, and you would get 400 units per hour.
35040h x 400u = 14.016.000 units x 30.000
And there your math fails you.
Ferrogel was actually worthless most of the time because the fuel costs of the poses to run the reactors were more expensive than the revenues from selling ferrogel and all the other stuff.
No one wanted it because no one used it. Only 1/10 of t2 items were built most of the time during these 4 years. A few t2 bpo holders had the stuff, perfectly researched bpo's as well. And there was compared to now almost no demand for t2 because it was so expensive.
Your 400 bil profit for 4 years for every large pos is completely out of scale. It might be 60 bil prt pod for the last year and 0 bil for the last 3 years (because no one needed that stuff). Still a big number and quite unfair, but not nearly close to 400 bil you mentioned.
Furthermore ... everyone benefit from the cheap stuff. Except of course those big alliances who had all the control over the dys moons - they did suffer because they couldn't sell their products for the price they could have gotten.
All others, especially those who use and buy t2 items greatly profited from the cheap and abundant supply of these materials.

Oh great, lets make a database rollback to 4 years ago... I was already there, who else? ^^
Ban each and every account which has made direct profit with this. In case it was alliance-wide: immediately freeze all corresponding alliance wallets, assets and stuff. Destroy the alliance itself and all corps within. Fire the ccp guys who worked on the petition. Let's blast this universe back to stone age again and start it all over again!

I have always wondered who was intervening in the Dysprosium market. I could always see it artificially being propped up. No matter what hit that market it always stayed artificially high. Which brings me to a VERY disturbing conclusion.
Wars may have been fought over dysprosium, not in order to sell it, but to keep it off the market so that it wouldn't crash the reaction prices. Otherwise, there is no need for this material, they can spawn all they want, why bother controlling it at all! This is seriously sick. It also means that anyone who is sitting on a dysprosium moon may be sitting on a material artificial price supports, and people were meta gamed, tracked down and harassed, some times in RL over this in order to keep the price unnaturally high. Whole alliances were crushed because of this. There is no way to know if there is a glut of materials, or a small supply, because its all a fallacy, a fabrication in order to channel profits to certain people.
CCP needs to deal ruthlessly, swiftly and severely with these people. I think now is a good time for a "rogue drone invasion" to wipe out some areas of 0.0 space.

Unfortunately for you, I'm not really joking. Seriously, how many POS's were BoB running in this fashion? What about the confirmed 20 in J-L that were setup EXACTLY as described in the scrapheap thread?

CCP just need to fix the exploit and if certain peeps have been found to be using the exploit then lock down the pos's
in question then it be fun if CCP hired a random bunch of players on a daily basis with dreads damage etc to take out the pos's
and keep the proceeds.
CCP just magics the the avenging fleet into the system(s) in question and clears the system of the offending corp/alliance or
nosey bystanders whilst punishment is administered. Could be a concord busmans holiday type affair with normal players deputised to administer concords business.
Bans not needed, its up to CCP to keep on top of these kinds of exploits.
Perhaps the t2 market will revive to what it once was instead of dirt cheap and so plentiful that piracy becomes
more viable in terms of loot collection from ebil bears.

Does it not make more sense that the people running around like chickens without their heads pointing fingers are the ones who have been using this exploit?

-Helfix
Hey am just stating the obvious, who are the ones here by the dozens pointing fingers and etc? BoB or Goons?
I don't really care for either of your sides, but if CCP ever did release the information am sure there are BoB members in there amongst Goons and many other major alliances....
It's nice to point fingers and all but if information comes out that your alliance is also one of the ones who used the exploit it will hurt you so many more times :).

What a crazy exploit! I fully expect to be informed by CCP of the parties involved. Those parties should recieve harsh penalties. Anything less would be a complete dis-service to the eve community.

As I said, most of the people exploiting this probably haven't even paid their monthly dues since. If they abused this to get ahead of everyone else who's been playing fairly, they shouldn't be allowed to keep their account. I can see going easy on small exploits, but this generated an absurdly unfair advantage over people not doing this.

So you produce 50 or 100 times the amount the moons will produce, literally flood the market with stuff and then buy off those people who flood the market in the same way you do? To finance wars to keep 1% more materials comming from a few moons off the market?
Yeah...very reasonable indeed... 
But the more I think about it, the more I wonder why no one from the economic department noticed the huge amount of materials comming out of nowhere.

I'm not sure how in-depth we can discuss it, but it looks like a pretty standard hands-free reaction setup to me. Unless you possess x-ray vision, I doubt you can determine who was haxploiting and who wasn't
