I've never done any espionage, I've never read up on any spy stuff.  Even I know it's dumb to do something like that real time if you don't want to burnt he spy.  :uhrr:

How do you timestamp to burn a spy? There's so many people in fleet seeing what's happening at the same time, could be any one of them

With enough evidence it shouldn't be too hard.  That said, GIA burns a lot of innocent guys (lahaine), and misses a lot of other folks that just keep their heads down (my parachute accounts for example).  It's only when people start to trumpet their intel that burning happens, and for some reason no one outside of GS has realized that said trumpeting is really dumb.

No, you see, *I* could never be found out, since I'm so awesome. All those other people wasting their spies do inflate their ego's just sucked.


Or something.  :awesome_for_real:

if that post was at me, all my parachute accounts got detected as soon as i used my normal home ip instead of piggybacking on someone else's wireless signal, and i was busy posting in epsilon each time as well.  good spies who keep their heads down aren't going to be detected (unless the guy they relay info to puts it in the open to show off ala jake noble)

[ASK] us about the f13 member who is a Bobby Atlas alt!

I don't think anyone believes that the spy was burned purely through convo timestamps over that short timeframe.  But I doubt if we'll find out the methods any time soon.

One thing I'd love to see far far down the road is all the GIA type stuff put out in public, after EVE online shuts down.  Sadly, people will be playing other MMOs where those techniques are useful, so I doubt it'll ever become public knowledge.

When EVE-Online shuts down and everything is made public we will get all the bitches.

Who would admit to that????

I still think the funniest spy outing was the one that got caught by Mazzilu's avatar text.

Oh, I agree.  Not just because of the means, but because of who it was (a Bob director... I seem to remember it being SFShootme) and the amount of posting he had done about the personal cost and great trouble involved in getting the spy in place.

Is there a link to that? That has to be pretty funny reading.

It was Cflux, Ex shinra and major BOB FC. The scary thing is he was their major spy in goons that they depended on for everything tactical.

I'll seArch for the posts later, if no-one beats me to it.

Thanks for that.  And it's ok, no need to go reposting that stuff again: it's all easy to read on kugutsumen.

There's a link somewhere, but it's a pretty simple story: Mazzilu's title is one of those that says something like "$name is awesome" where $name is whoever is logged in and reading it.  Spy screenshotted the forums with his name emblazoned on her avatar text.

"_____ is a spy"

Which is what made it hilarious.
