Nice job breaking roles CCP. You created a bad bug. Fix it immediately.

Well, I came across this interesting bug which this is game-wide even in other alliances and it is obviously broken. When I was checking my mail on Eve Gate, I looked over to my right column and saw that there was a bunch of calendar events. I naturally thought that someone had way too much time on their hands and decided to check it out. Turns out that it was all of the towers within the alliances that displays when they run out of fuel. I go up to the guy that's in charge of assigning roles and it turns out I have not been granted any whatsoever lately. I thought it was odd why I was seeing this information that is exclusively limited to Starbase Fuel Technicians. The reason why I noticed this and other people even with inferior brains like my fellow goons didn't is because I used to work QA in the software sector. If it's not supposed to do that or is just odd for functioning that way, it must be a bug.

"But my calendar doesn't show this so you're a liar." Here's the trick, just leave up calendar up for more than 10 minutes and all the crap will probably start filling up the calendar. Here's a quicker way to check. Go check the eve gate and see if your calendar is showing this same information about all the towers that needs to be topped off with fuel.

Now you may ask "Why the f do I care?". The simple solution is that spies are a natural part of this game, right? Your alliance leaders work hard to keep information private especially when towers run out of fuel. These information are critical and the backbone of your alliance to keep it going. You're not going to be happy when your CSAA Tower pumping out a baby titan had 12 hours left of fuel and you were planning to do it within that time frame but the enemy finds out this information and blockades your tower to oblivion.

Now in the end, I've already sent petitions, bug reports, even had other people send petitions and they haven't been answered by CCP. So right now, I'm going to assume that either CCP intentionally broke the system and allowed anyone within an alliance to see this information or they just don't care. Well I'm hoping to inform all you pubbies, null-sec, low-secs, and high-secs alike about this bug and get the message out to CCP that they need to fix this bug immediately.

If you got nothing to contribute, please point out why you guys love the GoonSwarm Federation.

It's not only eve-gate but ingame calendar is affected as well.

I, Personally, Find it curious that you were fine with displaying your Chrome, Internet Explorer, Pidgin, Excel, Notepad & Eve [and one other I cannot identify from memory] Icons on the taskbar, but there was an Icon you deemed required painting out.

Oh you goonies.

he's probably hiding the skype window that he uses to communicate with hostile spymasters because he's a SPY

There's three possibilities
1) CCP don't care, they already have your money.
2) Working as intended. It's all a trick to make life easier for CCP spys in major alliances.
3) They thought there were something more important to fix before this bug and they're all busy making client updates.
