Or it's about giving CCP some free publicity for quickly addressing a problem while also sharing the story of what is possible in the sandbox from time to time? Our goals do not have to be so different from CCP's all the time. We waited to post until it was fixed.

Eve, yea sure why not, it means nothing.

IRL I doubt it, but I'm not going to waste my time going tit or tat with you on an obscure forum about a game a couple of hundred thousand people play. Point is, in the grand scheme of things, w/e you do is completely irrelevant, cuase your space gold will soon be gone, and your account well soon be ban hammered.

Good day space hero. I'm sure your mom thinks you're cool though.

I believe that this is the applicable section from the Terms of Service, aka Rules of Conduct:

23. You may not exploit any bug in EVE Online to gain an unfair advantage over other players. You may not communicate the existence of any exploitable bug to others directly or through a public forum. Bugs should be reported through the bug reporting tool on our website.

Note that the general definition of a software "bug" is not limited to coding errors, but includes design errors, as well. In CCP's case, anything that CCP decides to be an "exploit" and for which they implement a code fix is considered a "bug", with regards to this section of the TOS. Also, note that CCP makes no distinction between exploiting a bug before or after it is discovered and announced by CCP - ie. exploiting a bug at any time is considered to be a no-no.

In the past, CCP has been rather strict about exploit violations. They end up costing RL money in terms of dev time to fix any damages, and it usually isn't good business to encourage players to look for and exploit similar bugs in future releases.

"Goons are better at Internet Spaceships than I am; therefore they are cheating."

The barely literate masses of pubbie filth continue to show that whining is the only recourse they can come up with presented with our superiority. Forget trying to outperform or show appreciation for clever game play usage, let's just ***** and moan and hope CCP gets rid of them all so we can go back to being mediocre and boring.

You asked me once, what was in Room 101. I told you that you knew the answer already. Everyone knows it. The thing that is in Room 101 is the worst thing in the world.
