THere currently is a bug.

I do find the timing of this particular bug extremely interesting.

Well, if true, I too find this very, VERY interesting... I mean, what are the odds of this bug happening right now? I mean, really?

Kinda reminds me of my brief stint in Darkfall. Where a server would suspiciously come down every time a certain alliance was about to lose their city. Yet when their enemies were sieged with the same numbers, the server would remain stable as a rock.

Interesting, truly interesting.

I don't know, this may have to do with the massive amount of TiDi, ships exploding, Concord and State Police spamming.

I mean, the greatest shitstorm of our time may have some concequences.

Yeah...I dunno...I really hate jumping on conspiracy bandwagons but this one is just a LITTLE too coincedental. Don't you think? I mean there just happens to be a "bug" preventing people from podding pirates without being CONCORDED the day before GSF's so called Jita Interdiction? Come on...

didnt the system that controls all this get "updated" in the last patch, so maybe a few bugs to iron out, unfortunate timing might be less tinfoil Shocked

Well I hope CCP is on this one fast. I was gonna go to Jita with one of my alts and get me some Goon kills. No point if I can't pod them without being shot at by CONCORD.

Tin foil to the rescue

What if mittans had his CCP cronies code this so that they could kill all day long and not be attacked


I dont normally troll, but when i do i do it on General Discussion.

I don't remember ever being allowed to shoot pods in highsec unless at war?

The change in Inferno was that pods show as criminals now, which was intended

Am I wrong?

EDIT: Escalation, not Inferno

So the question is...now that this is a known bug...is what Goonswarm is doing considered exploiting?

Can't say it is really since they had this planned long before the bug came up but it is still very suspicious if you ask me.

It likely has something to do with the interaction of Time Dilation and the Crimewatch system. Seems that they're not completely in sync.

Put the tinfoil away - It wasn't just Goons benefitting. I saw many, many pods last night, and very few were getting popped - not Goons, not Goon victims.

This bug (if bug it be) benefits all parties equally.

Tell someone you love them today, because life is short. But scream it at them in Esperanto, because life is also terrifying and confusing.

I completely agree, but the timing for such a "bug" or "interaction betweenTiDi and CW" seems kinda coincidental...
