I'm done. I have 3 paying accounts in this game and have had them for over 1 year. After this, I'm through. CCP has done NOTHING to correct the problem from last time and they still exact a "ban 1st get to the facts later" when allegations against them come to light.

Dear players.
Forgive us for being brief, but there has not been much time to prepare this statement.
Our forums have now been taken down due to the load generated by player response to allegations of developer misconduct. We urge people to wait until the facts are out, rather than taking sensationalist statements at face value. Our preliminary findings indicate that what happened what simply a developer doing his job ingame. He joined the corporation in order to access their POS, which was bugged.
We humbly ask our players to trust that the internal monitoring of our employers is being taken seriously. The current allegations will be fully investigated and we will publish our findings at the first opportunity. Please understand that this may not be today or tomorrow, but this issue will not be ignored.
The forums will be brought up again as soon as possible. Thank you for your patience and understanding.

CCP Internal Affairs
Now this was was removed within an hour or two. Their initial response has been to comment on one of 3 specific allegations of misconduct and ignore the other two entirely. Somewhat surprising.
