In another thread, the subject of MD history came up. EVE has been around for 9 years and that's a lot of history. The old and new forums contain a lot of historical information, most of which can only be found if you know what you're looking for in the first place.

In an effort to preserve the greater story of MD throughout the history of EVE, I'm creating this thread to solicit links to the big scandals, scams, or other greater MD issues of the days of old.

Please put me down for one vote for "a thread to discuss the topic is great, but please make the actual history in the official EVE wiki ('EVElopedia'): http://wiki.eveonline.com/en/wiki/".

Also, here are a couple of links to help your research:

First, here's a link to an existing wiki page about MD that includes a bunch of historical bumph: http://wiki.eveonline.com/en/wiki/Market_resources.

Second, here's a link to one of Haskell's "History of MD" threads on the old forum; it links to his earlier editions, too: http://community.eveonline.com/ingameboard.asp?a=topic&threadID=1415008.

This is a fantastic idea and it has the official stamp of approval from Forge Investment Services and Pastry Shop. Also, Thoraemond is spot on that this can be discussed here but the wiki is the best final medium for the collection.
