Some spiteful people out there, kinda rubs me the wrong way someone would report you for that, dick move imo by them no matter who it was. Was fun kicking it with you on teamspeak even though I haven't been on much lately, if you ever need an EvE favor dont be afraid to hit me up. Be easy. | ||

If someone in corp reported the somewhat serious transgressions against the EULA that I've performed, and I got banned for it, I would shrug my shoulders and start over. Breaking CCP's rules isn't a sin by any means, but if you get banned for it you shouldn't get annoyed, no matter the circumstances. It's a risk, and getting banned is always a possibility. | ||

The idea that a tight-knit group shouldn't report each other for crimes ("keep it in the family" "don't air our dirty laundry") has always seemed flawed to me. If a person is a threat to society in some way I have no problem removing that person from society. And your pot analogy is flawed for obvious reasons. If you tell me you are smoking pot of course I will say nothing. If you tell me you are stealing pot from other people I might very well report you. and this is why im leaving the corp. Be more specific, please. Are you leaving because you don't like the fact that I don't agree with what you are doing? Are you leaving because you feel that I should support corpmates in everything they do, even if I see it as morally wrong? | ||

My point is that if you do get reported, why are you getting mad? It was a risk you took breaking the EULA. Why does CCP have a rule against botting? It's because it gives people an unfair advantage, causes inflation, etc. That sort of thing rubs me the wrong way, and apparently it rubbed the person who reported Tassadar the wrong way! This is an eventuality that Tassadar should have known was easily possible.

Then, looking back on your previous posts, it looks like you're leaving because of the "principle" of your corpmates ratting on you. Well, I guess that fits. Your corpmate likely acted on principle ("botting is morally wrong") just as you are acting on principle ("betraying corpmates is morally wrong"). Seems like we've got a bunch of principled people in this corp. | ||

I don't think hes mad at all that he got caught... I'd be fucking furious if someone in the corp reported me for ANYTHING. I guess that's just my nature, and my trust in the corp im in. These are the ships I fly with and die with etc... why the fuck would they run and tell the "police". One person isn't going to cause inflation. ETT's feelings aside, if anyone in the corp reported me for something, I would out of spite dedicate 100 percent of my allotted assets and time to make their life miserable. Whether that would mean sabotaging their pvp or pve ops, getting them killed, just generally destroying their rep etc. ETT taking the high road here, I'm still disgusted anyone in the corp would rat on another member. "community corp" also known as, home of the snitches, dont trust other people corp? | ||

Well, with the whole "it's EVE" thing, and of course the laughably misguided sense of e-honor that some people have with regards to exploits/botting in video games for personal gain... You had yourself a recipe for disaster by admitting it in GA chat. You shouldn't have really treated this corp as an actual corp - meaning, you know, with a sense of loyalty or anything. Never give anyone else ammo to use against you for no reason. | ||

"community corp" also known as, home of the snitches, dont trust other people corp? WTF. There are limits to trust in EVE, always. You do not trust just anyone in corp with 10b, you do not trust just anyone with details of EULA violations, you do not even, currently, trust just anyone with basic ops channel access! The trust we extend to one another in this corporation is quite generous and I trust my corpmates with things I would never ever ever EVER trust people with elsewhere in EVE. Billions of isk are bandied about daily. Trade secrets that are worth billions of isk are discussed openly in corp chat. You know this first-hand. However, just because I take liberties with trust in intracorp situations does not mean that the trust extended is limitless! I would never disclose EULA violations publically if it were not necessary. As far as ETT's situation goes, I am saying that when ETT extended an extremely high amount of trust to his corpmate, and was betrayed, that this is not something to become enraged or huffy about! What I am trying to say is that in situations where trust is betrayed, the correct attitude to have is that the entirety of the blame, or close to the entirety, is on the person who extended the trust in the first place. Let me provide an example that makes what I just said less ridiculous. Once, I loaned a 1b CNR to a corpmate. He ran off with it. In that situation, the entirety of the blame was on me -- the person i loaned the CNR to was not an active member either in-game or on TL. It was stupid to extend to him the level of trust that I did. I didn't even ban him from this website when it happened. The trust that is extended to corpmates when assets are lent to them is the same trust that is extended when informing them of EULA violations. | ||

I dont believe motbob or pufftrees were there when it happened but that was the series of events. It was not just an immediate petition or anything. Heck ETT probably couldve just lied through his teeth and nobody wouldve been the wiser. | ||

It's a dick move but it's just one guy, not the entire corp. But apparently this is all done. I spend an evening playing sc2 and I miss all the drama. Personally what I would do here is stay in corp and assassinate the guy from time to time (when it didn't get in the way of ops). In fact, smartbombing pirate implants is probably the way I'd go. | ||
