In the light of the recent ban of player Erotica1 and recent admissions by "Formerly Known AsAC" that the bonus rounds are still going,

{Snip. -- ISD LackOfFaith}

It becomes obvious that Erotica1 is still around and is familiar with advanced real life scam/psychological manipulation techniques such as FITD (foot-in-the-door)

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Foot-in-the-door_technique

Note that these are basically psychological mind control weapons and players fate is generally not up to them once they became susceptible.

Combined with evidence that Erotica1 is still running the show in particular as some CODE members are the same group of people associated with Erotica1 and willing to employ FITD techniques on players.

Could it be that CODE is the new Erotica1's Stanford Prison Guard experiment using EVE as a sandbox? Something to think about.. Some evidence is definitely there.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stanford_prison_experiment

In such setup, Erotica1/James/other scumbags are the lab guys/guy, who runs the experiment while CODE agents are the prison guards who are instructed to employ FITD techniques to indoctrinate hisec players with prisoner mentality.

If this is true it's highly disturbing and we are in the moral (and legal) grey area.

Watch out.

I smell DARPA.

Also, I'm calling the Great Karnak for a prediction
