Public service announcement from Darius III

This is a public service announcement from the office of Darius III. When I ran for office I only ever made three promises:

Term 1- I promised to suicide gank someone at leats once a week-A promise I kept.

Term1- I promised to keep the reason that the CCP was designed for in the first place-as a check to CCP cheating- relevant; and do my best to never forget WHY we have a CSM.

Term2- To advocate an arena system.

Promise #2 from term 1 is what this public service announcement relates to. I am doing this because I believe that the players have a right to know certain things, and when I discovered that the information I am sharing was no longer covered by the NDA-I took action.

I will likely be banned from Eve for at least a short while as CCP investigates the matter. I can live with this. If I am perma banned-I would like to tell all the players I had interaction with how much fun I had and that the friendships I made in game will forever brighten my thoughts. Eve is a great game-the best game in the history of mankind with some of the brightest minds of generations playing it.

In mid 2012 I was contacted by a leader of one of the largest alliances in the game and he asked me if it was true that CCP was intercepting player communications.

Indeed that was true-CCP intercepted player communications.


This is the only knowledge that I can share with you without breaking the NDA. I apologize that I cannot give more information, but if I did-I would be breaking the NDA. That is something I will never do. I will likely be banned anyway for breaking the NDA but once they investigate-they will find that I did NOT break the NDA or the EULA.Not that that will prevent my banning-even if I followed the rules 100%

If I do not return, please know that my thoughts are with the many friends I met and I will always cherish the good times we had. Best regards, D3

I'm finding it difficult to rouse myself into a sufficient panic without knowing a few details. Like, any.

For example, does "intercept" mean "prevent the delivery of" or just "read"? Cause a full API lets me "intercept" your stuff too.

For now, my lynching torch remains unlit.

Obligatory 'the logs show nothing' comment goes here.

Thank you for stating the obvious, Joe. Have any other widespread public knowledge about CCP that you can "leak" to us all?

I'll probably get banned for this, but I have it on reasonable certainty that CCP is out to make money.

It was good knowing you friends while it lasted. Remember me well.

On rare occasions I love these forums and what happens in them.

Don't do this to me! YOU WERE THE CHOSEN ONE NATHAN!

I'll probably get banned for this, but I'm pretty sure that you're playing a game about internet spaceships.

I think you'll find instead that it was an internet game about spaceships. Real spaceships are hard to fit into the internet.

Guess it's that time of year for Darius to pretend he's done something, anything, for the past 8 months.

We'll try to carry on without you, somehow Roll

EDIT: Readers may also be shocked to know that Google has copies of all your email on Gmail. I hope i don't get banned from Google!!!

If I could download a spaceship from the internet, I would. I've got my spare harddrives ready.

that was a decent imitation, but I would recommend, in the future, wasting more words and having worse spelling.

I'll probably be banned for this, but I'm perpetuating your meme by reposting it in the thread and later in other threads, thus ensuring that everyone is aware of it.

I have to agree with the first post TBH.

Without knowing what they read and what if any actions they took because of that I can't really be shocked or horrified.

Oh... and shirt combo breaker :)
