Some of the hacks on the eve client you would not believe they were very impressive and who knows what some of these alliances are running now

Now EvE servers (as all MMOs should) log every request from the client but this little hack went for 6 months without it being caught. They used the internal web-server in eve to stream a copy of their display to a website. This is 2005 maybe a little later. I guess now adays this is not that impressive and stuff but 2005 it was so useful.

The idea was that we could have one 'page' where we would collect the feeds from different scouts. It worked

CCP banned the developer once they caught it, they were rather reasonable, if he wanted to reinstate his account they wanted copy of his code. They then told him what rules it broke and even recommended how he can make changes to his code to stop the violation. They were really rather good about it.

The line was at the time that you could modify the client as long as you did not modify the way it handles data between the server and the client.

Miss eve :( but it becomes life
