Shooting your own corp members? Maybe the people doing the recruiting can at least to a quick eve kill check...oops...guess not.

I just talked to him, he said "working as intended".

This is not about the members of my corporation. Just wondering.

Was it about the members of his corporation? If not we're at a loss as to what you're prattling on about.

There's nothing worse than an EVE player, generally considered to be top of the food chain in the MMO world, that cannot smacktalk with wit and coherency.

Well, in that case, CCP likes emergent gameplay. Blink

You are from the CCP? No. Therefore - no. Recipient of the question in the topic title.

As you posted it in a public forum, we can only infer that we all are the intended recipients.

So, that said, I deem this worthy gentleman's killboard to not be an exploit. He is obviously pretty good at AWOXing freighters, but if there was anything illegal about the way he is doing it then I didn't see it.

You're welcome. I'm sure you will be able to sleep easier now.

Haedonism Bot, the erroneous assumption.

In general, I do not agree. I am also confused by the rate of change of corporations in recent times.

No, really. Safari's are legit. I'm quite impressed with his ability to do this so frequently, particularly in corps with freighters. My characters are usually not so lucky.

What is confusing about his rate of change in corporations? He kills his corp mates, and moves onto the next corp to do the same. There is no time limit on corp hoping, only on returning to a corp that is currently at war.

Considering that I can't join a corp against their wishes and you can easily check my history and killboard before accepting me, I'd say it's working as intended.

You'll hear the same from a GM, in-corp killing isn't an exploit. I did safaris before they were cool~

I'll second Mr. Stark.

You need to file an in-game petition if you want a response from CCP.

Since you are complaining about AWOXing, a very long standing tactic for players with evil intent, I suspect the response from CCP will be something similar to this.

Join the New Order, buy your permit today, and follow the code.

This appears to me to be the logical consequence of corps accepting new members without doing any form of background checking. Not an exploit, possibly some skill at smooth talking and BS, and most certainly abject failure on the part of corp execs.

I guess I am almost a 'vet' by now. Hopefully not too bitter and managing to help more than I hinder. I build and sell many things, including large collections of bookmarks.

As everyone else has said, this is not an exploit. There is a long tradition of this in Eve.

And wow, that dude is quite good at it. :)
