  • Here's what you don't get:
     
     1. People find out, legitimately, that there's a problem related to Devs and Bob.
     2. The incriminating evidence gets posted, which has happened tons of times already. Many times Goonswarm's private director convoes, due to spies, have been reposted all over eve-o. This was never an issue before.
     3. When BoB's messages get leaked, the leaker gets banned. Keep in mind he had done this 4-5 times to other alliances and no one ever gave a poo poo. Suddenly he's banned.
     4. Kieron tells the community that they're on a witchhunt, that all of this is unproven, and they're just "bashing band of brothers."
     5. Kieron proclaims that the investigation is over and the appropriate parties have been punished, and deletes 90% of the responses that are negative in both the COAD post and the Eve Announcements forum.
     6. T20 is fingered as one of the main culprits in the drama.
     7. All posts RELATED to that are deleted.
     8. Finally T20 fesses up, and it turns out that:
     1. BoB was wrong
     2. Kieron was wrong
     3. Everyone shouting at all the people investigating this as "Accusing for political gain" were wrong.
     
     So basically, the eve community forced CCP to do the right thing, all the while they were kicking and screaming, and while BoB professed innocence, claiming it was all lies. Only none of it was made up, and neither BoB nor CCP are really trying to take any real responsibility for it. CCP has had the guilty party come out and admit it, and the CEO has implemented some new policy, and that's about it. Where is DBP or SirMolle's mea culpa, for lying to the community? After all, he said this was all lies - when he knew flat out that it wasn't. So wait a sec, BoB will lie to all of Eve to keep their shady dealings secret, who knew?
     
     And if you can't understand why people are upset that legitimate claims take mass bannings, suspensions, and deletions to get investigated, and the investigation is half assed every step of the way, and that the "Devs in BoB = basically untouchable" myth gets PROVEN TRUE, then it's quite clear you have a slanted point of view and the only reason you see it as no big deal is because you happen to be in BoB.
