There were other circumstances involved in that case that were not readily publicized. This is not the time nor the place to debate this topic but please at least research topics before formulating opinions about them.

I don't necessarily disagree with you there Wiz, but if they wanted to play, I'm sure they could have got enough devs together on test to make a guild and not bring it to the live servers. Instead of leaking the Trakanon info and giving it to NPU who plays on a live server, they should have tested it themselves and kept it on test or beta. It all really disappoints me. We look at NPU as a WW guild and awe over the disco's we see. It's like watching a football game where a team is unbelieveably good and undefeated, only to find out that the NFL staged it all. Imagine how disappointing that would be. The devs have built NPU up to that caliber imo.

Are you a fry cook or the drive-thru guy? Thanks for making sure McDonalds isn't unfairly criticized. This thread was getting carried away with Snark's outing Hamburglar.

I just noticed a bit ago on that DIGG article listed in the 1st post...

if you click on "Who Dugg or Blogged It?", Kimbial (one of the GM's for EQ2) is listed.

Although like many others, I don't understand outing Domino. Let's not lose scope of the real issue -- broken epics and how devs leak info about beating them (and/or have a hand in beating them themselves). Tradeskilling is small potatoes in comparison to raiding and character "balancing" aka nerfing.

The real issue isn't just raiding, it's the entirety of SOE's culture. The outings are beings done indiscriminately.While I was cool to the idea initially, even the outing of Domino has proven relevant and valuable since she's posted under her player account to support her perspective/official positions, play booster and bash a former dev. Check Gaige's posts on it in this thread.
