I have found the perfect picture of NightTrace in this situation:
cap0ne, what are you doing posting EPN propoganda?!?!?
but wait, why would they want to receive The Kid?
Reposco is on, he just doesn't entertain other Organization's Operatives the way Zeissman will.
Reposco is a *CENSORED* nice fella. So is Zeissman. EPN really lucked out in round two.
To be honest, all of the new LESIG members are awesome as far as talent goes, except, well, except the Machine liaisons. There are also some quantity issues, as in people we never see in the game, i.e. also the Machine liaisons (and sadly, I never see Caelifera much, either).
So does there seem to be a common denomenator here?
Honestly... What's so bad about people being IC ingame and OOC on the forums? Rarebit does it all the time, and everyone's fine with it. Maybe those promoted to Liaison status should have a separate forum account for "official" posts, with the "Liaison" rank and all that. Their other account could be for them to function as a player, the way Rarebit uses his dev account to speak OOC and his LE character accounts for IC posts. - Void
Actually, I liked it a lot better when I didn't know who was behind the Live Event characters... but that's just me. Interacting with Live Event characters has lost a bit of it's "magic" now that I know Rarebit is behind them. When you meet a character like Niobe, or Gray, or the Merovingian... it feels like I'm meeting a character played by Rarebit, as opposed to actually meeting the character.
If that makes sense...
Like, when I'd meet Morpheus back in the day, it really felt like I was meeting the character of Morpheus.
I -hate- seeing LESIG characters go OOC. I don't WANT to know who's behind them. I don't WANT to know the player. I like the mystery, and I don't really want to hold a grudge against a liaison because I don't like the player OOC. Because you know that would happen with a lot of people here.
Let's say NightTrace played a LESIG liaison for EPN. Half of EPN hate NightTrace. A lot of people can't seperate that wall between IC and OOC... if they knew Trace was the guy who played the liaison, they'd think that every single time the Machines ruined an EPN plan, it would be because Trace leaked it... which wouldn't be true.
This game generates more drama then daytime television. I think it's bad enough having LESIG comprised of players without having to know who the players actually are.

Dear Torman, You are inactive, you are corrupt, and you are a liaison for personal gain. You have not allowed Recursion Machinists a proper live event in months. Not being able to go into buildings without massive lag is not an excuse. Step down. To my fellow Recursionite Machinists: If you wish to see a difference and receive the content you are paying for, please refuse any and all orders from our inactive liaison officers Torman and Eventual. Tell them you're mad as hell and you're not going to take it anymore. Players corrupted by an ego that has resulted in their inactive LESIG position will not be tolerated. kthxbye

Was it an ingame ban, a forum ban, or just a suspention. Not that any are justifiable but there is still a difrence in the three.
Forum ban/suspension.
Actully after I asked about what type of ban it was on the forums cap0ne told me ingame that it was a forum ban not because of his post but because of his sig. Now yes baning someone from the forums for a sig when you could have just as easily told them to change it is still f-ed up but its nearly as f-ed up as it would have been because of his post. As you can see his post is still around on this thread (meaning eithe A the mods haven't found it and taken it down or B there is nothing wrong with it) and the only reason the other thread was locked/moved was because it turned into a flame war taht had revealed the ID of a LEISG member.
