I don’t want to play a game where people connected with the company Devs or the devs themselves play against the regular players by cheating using tools regular players don’t have.

🤷‍♂️

but it is not like the devs made war on you or tried to steal your stuff. he simply wanted to get away from danger.

That’s only what we _can_ see on the video and in my experience what we _can_ see hides a whole lot of what we _can’t_ see.

And as far as devs making war on me or not, what happens to any player can happen to any other player. I’m not one of those “it only happened to the neighbors so we’re cool” no, I’m one if those “if it can happen to them, it can happen to us” kinda guy.

Plus, that GM-chocolate’s face reminds me of a dude I owe an unpleasant visit to so I got double triggered by that… person.

That would get him into way worse trouble if he ever wanted to do anything with that info. It’s scary how crazy some people get over video games.

Sneaking in after the lock to provide this response:

Whenever we want to do events which involve messing around in the sandbox like this we need to get approval in advance from IA and we have to be pretty specific about what it is we intend to do. For this one we were green lit to take some shiny spaceships and mess around in highsec and abyssal deadspace but we never sought permission to sacrifice a titan in lowsec.

Yes, going into Rakapas was a mistake, but once the 'bus got tackled CCP IceCream faced a dilemma - either get pitchforked a bit by players for bugging out or explain to IA why we didn’t stick to what we’d agreed were the boundaries for this event (and thereby potentially make it harder for us to get permission for these kinds of events in the future).

I’m sorry folks felt they were denied content but IceCream made the right call.
