Is it true devs cheat ships into the game?

I’ve read stories about ships being cheated into the game by developers.

I’ve heard stories from players about it.

Now I’m asking questions.

Is this tolerated? Do developers take real life money to cheat ships into the game?

If so, I’m affraid theres only one option, Server wipe.

If not, Goodbye. No, you cannot have my stuff.

Even worse, I heard devs cheated an entire solar system into the game a while ago, with connections to all corners of the cluster!

If you’re leaving, can I have your stuff anyway?

I wouldn’t call it “cheat”. Developers have to have accounts and characters for various reasons like testing and evaluating in real 3D world.
Maybe some devs use their own money to play the game on their off time too, but they’re not doing anything more than any other player.
Plus, there are easy ways to get ships and modules in EVE. No need to cheat.

No, i’m speaking of paying real money to a developer in order for them to spawn ships into the game out of thin air.

“Titans from nowhere”

I’m not talking about new systems, features, I’m talking about giving players ships in exchange for real money.

Never heard of such a rumor before.

I heard that whole asteroid belts being scooped up into a venture.

I knew those NPC miners were up to no good!

All such transactions would be logged somewhere and why would a Dev risk his Job to receive probably pocket money compared to his salary to spawn a Titan for someone? As soon as someone notices or talks and it gets reported or just suspected, another Dev could check where the Titan in question did come from (every item has a server history, going back to it’s creation), who has owned it before, where and when it was built etc…

Or do all Devs work together in this grand scheme of things? Have you found a real conspiracy? Tell us more!

As is their right to control the spread of rumors that would negatively effect them. My question is, if this has been discovered before, Why is the server allowed to stay in place. What the local govornment where the game was made allowed such things? Or was this too trivial to consider.

I have an acquaintance who thinks arms’ companies are creating wars all over the planet just to sell their guns and tanks and ammo and get rich.


Sounds like a spawn from wherever Swing Vote came from. There must a village under some sort of a crazy rock somewhere that produces these guys.
