Official CVA Statement

Because there’s a lot of signal to noise at the moment I’ve reposted this from Hardin’s post on Scrapheap Challenge.

OFFICIAL CVA STATEMENT

I can confirm that CVA was folded and yes we are almost 100% sure it is an account hack for several reasons

1) We have contacted the relevant player out of game (we have ‘real life’ contact with him) and he is denying that he did this.

2) The account owner is late US TZ – the disbandment and robbery occurred in early Euro-TZ

3) When the ‘hacker’ logged in he was only in the basic channels and none of the usual channels that this member is in, indicating that he logged in from a different EVE client.

Of course he could be lieing to us but the member in question is, as far as we were aware, a loyal member of the executor corp and the CVA for over three years. There was no indication what-so-ever that he was in any way disillusioned with our mission and is indeed one of our more active and effective PvPers.

We do not believe that he would have done this. However, as with Haargoth – you can never be definitively sure – so yes – at this stage it is possible that it is simply a betrayal.

Nevertheless we are of the firm belief that this has to be a hack and we have asked CCP to investigate. No doubt all will be revealed in due course.

Obviously it sucks to be us right now and there is no doubt that this is going to cause disruption. However CVA is nothing if not resilient and we will prevail despite the obstacles that will probably be thrown in our way…

    More from CVA on Scrapheap Challenge.

    As one of CVA's official spokesmen, I can tell you this:

    This was not a betrayal or a rogue or any other action taken by the human being who owned the account in question. This was not spying, or bribery or any other in-game activity.

    This was a hacked account, pure and simple.

    No whining, no complaining, just facts, and no, I cannot provide you the specific eveidence myself (spokesman, not leader or the poor guy in question who got hacked). Nor would I, frankly, as this is a serious matter for CCP, not forum whoring (although I do so love forum whoring).

    We absolutely want to have our name back, and the damage done by this violation (and IMO illegal activity by the hacker) restored by CCP and we will be fighting for that as hard as anyone ever has in this game (and yes, we know it's a game, even though we're RP lolz).

    CVA will not be destroyed by this, nor are we going to allow this to hurt us. We have always been far more than just a name. We will survive, and we will fight for what is right in this case, in the appropriate and proper ways.

    Be assured, CVA, and Providence, will be around, under our old name or a new one if needed, for some time to come. And I personally want to thank those who have expressed their support against this type of out of game hacking attack. we in CVA have always said, want the spoace, we'll fight you for it, happily, win or lose. But out of game shenanigans like this, is not how ANY of us, me, you or anyone, wants to lose in this game.

    Thanks for yout ime guys, I love scrapheap, even if I don't say much here.

    Their statements sound reasonable and not like loltearz. Assuming they prove true (an assumption I can't quite make just yet), I certainly hope CCP restores things as best as can be.

    Either way, Providence sounds like a lot of fun for the next few weeks.
