Mithridates VI DUST 411 738	Posted - 2013.04.10 03:11:00 - [2] - Quote They're being rewarded for doing something I doubt most of the other major corps would do.

Not a single thumbs up The same night i post and after the devs obviously saw it because they moved the thread it gets fixed. and the credit is givin to someone who posts a video the day after...wow Your welcome [citation needed]
Mithridates VI DUST 411 740	Posted - 2013.04.10 05:42:00 - [4] - Quote You're silly. While usually I would applaud anyone reporting issues, your expression of dissatisfaction with lack of recognition is childish and makes me hesitant to support you at all, so I won't. You want props for your thread being first? It wasn't. The bug was discovered at least a couple of days before your thread was created and Immobile Infantry spent a few days testing and documenting it, while reporting their progress to CCP who were alerted directly immediately. Starting a thread because you saw someone using it? Not quite the same thing as developing and reporting a software exploit. What people are giving props for is II having a full understanding of the bug and using it responsibly.
Mithridates VI DUST 411 744	Posted - 2013.04.10 08:27:00 - [5] - Quote Jack McReady wrote: this is my point of view for this: Immobile Infantry got reported to CCP staff for bugusing and now they are doing damage mitigation by saying "they were doing tests" and taking credit for bugusing in pub matches. they were testing nothing, they only ruined the games of some poor new players in militia stuff. I saw sammus420 doing it several times in pub matches already last week and reported it accordingly... the irony, just check this thread: https://forums.dust514.com/default.aspx?g=posts&m=676057#post676057 and they dared to ask "Do you have any proof to back up your claims?" and now they post the evidence by themself. if you want to test something, make a corp match instead of ruining the experience of new players IDK if you're a student at D-UNI or better represent them but I read bullkitten like this and think less of them. There's public tweets between devs and Immobile Infantry, it was discussed in IRC, there's an easily visible conversation between the two and you're making things up because of some kind of anti-Goon agenda. Why are you so dishonest?
Mithridates VI DUST 411 744	Posted - 2013.04.10 08:59:00 - [6] - Quote Jack McReady wrote: I only represent myself, also I specifically stated that this my point of view and if this is wrong then please answer those questions: if they were testing something, please tell me why sammus420 was using it already last week, why have they used it in pub matches "for testing" when they could aswell make a corp match? and if it was for testing why was sammus420 teamkilling other players instead of his corpmates? as you can see in the thread I linked (which ironically is about II teamkilling others and you could provoke the bug via teamkilling), I already knew about this before so I am not making up things. I'm not a Goon, nor can I speak for them, but I imagine any abuse of the exploit was the act of an individual. I've seen Immobile Infantry leadership very clearly, after they immediately told CCP, pass on a "stop doing this". I've seen Cerebral Wolf dismiss the idea of sharing the exploit until it's fixed. I've seen internal discussion focused on fixing a gamebreaking bug and I've seen conversations between CCP and II focused on solving the problem.
Mithridates VI DUST 411 745	Posted - 2013.04.10 10:06:00 - [7] - Quote Cool, you can have whatever timeline you like. Here's a sequence of events based on time stamped posts. 6 Apr - Cerebral Wolf @CCP_Nullarbor Where can i send you the video of that broken thing i told @RegnerBA about? We have some insane footage with 12 of them. 7 Apr 09:09 GMT Cerebral Wolf passes on a "stop doing that" from CCP who have been advised of the exploit. 7 Apr 19:28 GMT - Jack McReady sammus420 is know for bugusing, teamkilling, several orbital strikes in 30secs of game time and so on. EXPLOIT GETS PATCHED. 8 Apr 19:57 GMT Cerebral Wolf makes public announcement. ...but you're totally welcome to think that despite allegedly being made aware of the issue by several parties CCP decided only to reward Immobile Infantry because something something "they claimed the reward".

The players affected are only left with bad experience while II got rewarded. Funny, according to your timeline I reported I reported sammus exploiting the bug the same day ( link ), where is my reward? Not my fault that CCP is too slow at reading my rants trollface I haven't seen any evidence that it was used before being reported. What is it with the people saying "I saw the exploit in use, I should get a reward." There's a significant difference between being a victim of a software exploit and being the developer and reporter of one.
Mithridates VI DUST 411 755	Posted - 2013.04.10 22:12:00 - [9] - Quote Jack McReady wrote: because you cant use alt accounts for corp matches right? also I only remember you because you were the guy calling the orbitals... the sad part is, your score was nothing to brag about, even after the orbitals, your corp mates did all the work I was hoping there was some legitimate criticism of II's behaviour in here so I could run the other side of the story... but there's a bunch of evidence to support their arguments. Some contested details which there is no evidence for... and no evidence for your side... Then you go and say things like this which make it seem like you have an agenda.
Mithridates VI DUST 411 755	Posted - 2013.04.10 23:00:00 - [10] - Quote If anyone has another side to the story which can be backed up by more than bias against Immobile Infantry, I'd be keen to see it to add another perspective to my current story on them at dust411.com.
