Athena Dare Revenge of the Fallen IMPS 17	Posted - 2014.03.25 04:35:00 - [1] - Quote So CPM Kane Spero now rules over Molden Heath in Dust, tell me how CCP doesn't see this as a conflict of interests? CPM's get advanced Intel about the future of the game the rest of us do not get. Yet CCP doesn't see it as a problem that somehow Kane has effectively become king of Molden Health. You can no longer own a district in Molden heath if Kane doesn't want you to. He controls the best corps in the game AE, TP, NS, ERA and others. He can get them to take any district in the game. If doesn't get your district the first time he can keep you locked down until he finally beats you. Now his plans are to keep, farm and hold all of Molden Heath except PFC (Oddeluf) and Thunder-dome (Bosena) which will net him and his friends in excess of 2 Billion ISK a Day(DUST ISK) Now the average player doesn't know the details of the road map for Dust 514, if we did I suppose it would kind of like being able to see the first 4 numbers of the next lottery. There is no way this information has not helped Kane Spero do what he did. NTM somehow make corps like Ancient Exiles, Team Players, and Nyain San do his bidding, all the while somehow making it seem like they are in charge.

Is knowing where the Heavy Laser is in development help him take over districts currently? No but knowing exactly how PC 2.0 will work in the future, can get him a large amount isk being the guy the controls dust.

What you do in the game has nothing to do with you in reality. Wow Eve references from long ago in a dust forum

I am not looking to get anyone "kicked off" But looking to change the way CCP can just grant some people overwhelming power over the game, which in this case breaks PC once again. Now PC has a king and you are only allowed to live on 2 planets, if you are not among his elite.

He's a player. Jenza was a CPM member when she did the same thing with Chronos. Didn't make it bad then, doesn't make it bad now. Yeah it kind of did make it bad then. Jenza used her advanced knowledge to give her alliance an advantage. Not quite as large a problem as this is, but still gave one person an advantage no one else had. PC IS BROKEN now again, and if Kane had his way he will farm most of PC until 2.0 comes out then he will profit from being the premiere provider of dust mercs to eve corps that want the resources Dust districts provide!

Every decision he made was logical based on the public information at the time, and a common sense assumption any 13-year-old could've made about what's coming next. CCP takes it very seriously, and has an entire Internal Affairs department dedicated to ensuring people under NDA with CCP, both employees and CSM/CPM, do not use insider knowledge to advance their in-game status. Back this accusation with evidence, please. No Accusation was made, the statement was "Isn't it a conflict of interests for a CPM to rules all of PC" IT IS A CONFLICT OF INTERESTS! IT DOES GIVE HIM AN ADVANTAGE OVER THE AVERAGE PLAYER! These are simple facts.

Or one that doesn't Meta game is not part of a CPM's job description.. CPM can play the game as they see fit. Thank god. Having a CPM that is Good at DUST... is exactly the right candidate as long as that doesn't get in the way of the CPM duties that have been committed to. It's has nothing to do with Kanes skill at dust (which if you talked to anyone that plays with him knows his skill at actually playing Dust is, not good) It has to do with the single question does he get an unfair advantage knowing what he knows, that the rest of us do not.

CPM is something that I do in real life and has no relation to me in-game... Anyone that knows my record knows that I wish passive ISK would burn in a fire. It's just not a very good design. The irony here is that we were actually making better money picking locks and selling districts. Locking going away was a negative to my organization's business model of selling land because it greatly depreciated the ISK value of a district. That business model of capture sell is something I had used since NF's landing on MH. Yeah no you plan on making the real ISK in eve when PC 2.0 comes out. When people/corps/alliances will have to pay you, if they want any of the resources the Dust Districts will provide. OH this wasn't an accusation, just stating the facts, but that was a beautiful politician's speech.
