 A disturbing trend I need an explanation

I, and other members of my legion have noticed a disturbing trend over the past several weeks.

Multi hacks/raids by different members of the different legions in the same battlegroup within minutes, and in some cases, seconds of each other.

I did not think it was possible to share information from a BT to other members of your own legion, much less to other legions.

Before you ask, I have committed on offensive actions against anyone in the past week, so it cannot be from that.

I have screencapped the latest time. I have greyed out the names.

Can someone explain how this is happening?

Coincidence.

Same happens to me:

4 hours, 49 mins ago From: Meery Minion
1640 Research Points were hacked and stolen from your database by Meery Minion
4 hours, 49 mins ago From: Slade
984 Research Points were hacked and stolen from your database by Slade

If any of them are by me I'm sorry. I have the memory of a goldfish and will often forget who I attack. I have recently got into the habit of posting on coms after I disable/hack to help me remeber.

The problem is not being multihacked/raided by any one person. Shoot, I am thinking about opening a spot for some EOTS people for Thanksgiving. I see some of them more often than I see my legion mates on my comm.

The problem is getting attacked by different people in different legions at the same time. I don't know how this is happening.

OK, great. HOW do they do it? It's three different people in three different legions. How is the information shared? I haven't attacked them and you cannot share people from the BT.

They communicate.

Who knows. In the screenshot you posted, you were flared. Maybe the others waited for someone else to do it and checked back every few mins.

But how did the three of them know 1) I was there and 2) I was flared? They would have to be able to share scans.

Also, this is not the only time this has happened. This has happened to me 3 times in the past 48 hours. Other members of my legion report the same issues and multiple raids on a disable, again by different people in different legions.

This is not supposed to be possible between legions. I suspect someone has found a loophole in the program.

There are no loopholes. Like I said earlier; coincidence.

Here's something for you that happened to me a while back:

Image

Two people with similar names (they're related, actually). They were in different legions and different rooms when this happened. If this can happen and be pure coincidence (which it was), anything can.

It's a simple thing, and makes sense if you're trying to limit your actions. 2 friends talk in FB Chat, looking for common ships on the BT. One artis, they both hack, attack, and or raid.

They use chat groups, etc. Happens to me on a quasi-regular basis.

I find this coincidence a little hard to believe. I suppose it's possible it could happen with one of the mega-battlegroups. But it sucks.

It NOT a coincidence. Some players get together and coordinate stuff like this. On purpose. For fun.

Here's another one then... These guys got the ban faster than they could blink when they showed up side-by-side on my BT.

It is. I'm just trying to explain that coincidence occurs far more often than you'd think.
