This is very likely a bug, as we migrated all mission data between systems. As far as I know nobody did any intentional changes to the payout from missions. I'll take a closer look tomorrow.
Just confirming that this is indeed a bug and a fix will be included in the next update for Singularity.
Thanks for the report!
As far as I know we (CSM) weren’t told about this, so hopefully it’s a bug or an error. It’s been brought to the right people, we’ll see what happens!

How can i opt-out of sending my crash data to ccp ?
Here:
ESC - General Settings - Crashes - Upload Crashes Automatically
I personally would advise against switching this off, as then we will be unable to know about crashes, which are happening for you and we will have less chances to fix them - but this is completely your decisions and feel free to do so, if you are too worried about your privacy or similar (but it does for example not include any information what else is running on your machine, well, except if for example the crash is directly caused by some other application like an overlay, then we can often see which application crashed it).
So no comment on the actual topic of the thread?
This topic is unfortunately outside of the scope of my team, so I cannot comment on it, but I can ensure you that it is being read.
Here is a weird break that happened with the formation of Pochven.
Level 4 Distribution agents on random days, start giving out level 1 missions with level 1 ISK and level 1 LP Rewards. And that will continue for the whole 24 hours until the next downtime.
Good Job CCP.
Hey,
FYI, my team managed to tracked down this bug today and a potential fix is currently in code review. This is a quite weird bug, where in very rare cases the agent information fails to load correctly and the level is falling back to the default level 1.
This problem is as far as I can tell unrelated to the Pochven region, but related to internal refactoring on how agent data is stored. As this was done by my team, I am very sorry, that this bug slipped through my testing (I have actually still not managed to reproduce the problem in a test environment, but I was able to find information about it in our logs).

What would you consider your biggest achievement in EVE as a player
probably spending like 2-3b on a new abyssal sacrilege, decking it out, jumping into a t4 and then realizing i got the wrong missile types and dying because i couldn't kill anything.
the most satisfying thing i've done is finding like 1b+ in loot in a easy guristas high-sec site (like 3 or 4/10 if i recall correctly) - like to run these in a jackdaw but it's been a while since i did this.
Can you put the aeon back to it proper size of 9km and upsize the rest of them?
px cant ship ship changes. (that was fun to type out)
Hey, I love the game and love the community but I would say botting empires are probably the biggest existential threat to the game right now. - What new steps are you taking to further combat botting? - Do you have any big plans for a better system than player reports, because when a group has eyes at the base of a pipe, there will be characters never caught and reported.
peligro here, salty old dog - been banning bots since i got my first ethernet cable at the age of 4 years old!

Without naming names (you guys already did it!) - I dismantled 3 corporations from a problematic rental alliance earlier this week. This is not really visible to you guys as players, because as you said, one corp vanishes - another one replaces them. I also seize the ISK they pay in rent but it usually doesn't dent the wallets of the facilitators. This is happening behind the scenes on a daily basis but outside of the email sent to people who report bots which CCP takes action against, there isn't much for you guys to go on.
When a corporation is dismantled anyone who isn't involved in whatever cheating activity was taking place is removed from the corporation. All assets in space are blown up.
A lot of this is manual and takes time... That's why internal tooling is really important.
Also bots can't delete the character and create new ones - their accounts are permanently banned. Most of CCP's actions against bots result in BANS - almost all of which are permanent.
Usually they will make new accounts, using virtualization or something else.
Fair, but like we've seen with groups like kids with guns and a number of the rental alliances in the past they just end up cycling characters through either the same corps or rejoining the rental alliances with different corps once one gets banned/neg walleted. The rental managers know whats going on and facilitate them doing it but we never hear of them being reprimanded for it? The major problem of alliances and alt corps being setup for the sole purpose of distancing botting from the main alliance won't stop until the repercussions are felt up the chain

I think most of us, myself included, are total videogame nerds.
At the risk of being judged by the PC master race, GM Fate and I have an unhealthy addiction to collecting platinum trophies on playstation... please send help...
i'm on the other side of the spectrum: serial unfinisher, never plat'd anything, don't finish most my games
And why nearly 50 % of the Goon Bots killed in Yulai seemingly knew their fate and managed to drop corp right before ?
to
if they dropped corp before they were teleported it's because a GM kicked them out. this isn't done when they are banned as bots really.
The greatest concerns I hear about are, can my graphic card "insert name" run this game on high settings?
hello yes will my voodoo II handle EVE on supa dupa?

Thanks for your reply. I'm a Security Analyst working on EVE and I deal mostly with bots and RMT.
I can't really give away too much here but CCP is tooling up heavily in this department right now; we are also actively investigating client side detection but it's still too early for Real News on that.
What's the best story you experienced as a GM?
my best GM story is when i was hired as a GM in 2006 and now its 2020 and i still work at CCP
When will Faction Warfare get a proper rework? Aside from the non tethering in hostile space nothing has happened to FW since the inferno patch. In particular how easy it is to abuse FW missions.
are you seeing bots abusing fw missions in particular or is it players? please report bots in-game with the good button: https://support.eveonline.com/hc/en-us/articles/360000249125-Reporting-suspected-bot-users
another one, though probably not directly for GMs: supercarrier size rework when? the larger aeon model was amazing
hmm probably nobody from the PX department can answer this :(
- Nope, sorry :) I don't think I'm exaggerating when I say that there have probably been CCPers in every major powerblock over the years though. I personally used to be a member of one, but it's been a few years now since I did nullsec wars.
- At least 20!
our hamsters all live in the cloud now
Why were so few botters dropped into Yulai?
had a hard time finding more as they had all been nuked from orbit :(
1) How do you keep motivated when we are such a bunch of whinging narcissists 2) pineapple on pizza, yes or no 3) what’s your biggest challenge and how can we help
