Is Psychobilly the smartest person in the MO universe??

PB does nto want to give SV his ID and neither would I.  Especially since in the past they have multiple billed people and have done many other shady things.

Also why keep testing so secret??   This is not closed beta last time I checked.  I mean I know and everyone else knows it is a paid beta but whats the big deal??

Also classic SV response.

Not giving Starvault my ID

---

Among other things, I am a data privacy expert here in the US as part of my daytime career. I have much experience with the payment card industry and the regulations around storage of private data. I can tell you that safe storage of private data is no simple matter, and is subject to hefty regulations around the globe.



Starvault: You should not be requesting ID cards for your test program. You are subjecting yourself to legal liabilities you do not want. Proper secure storage of credit card information is difficult enough, but scans of ID's can contain additional sensitive information.



I strongly recommend people not provide scans of their ID's; Starvault is a software development company, not a security company.



Starvault you should be thinking of other ways to verify trustworthiness than someones ID. Participation in the historical bug tracker is one way. Long term play is another.



You also need to be realistic here: people are going to tell their guild mates and friends about what happens on the test server. It is 2011, and we have the Internet - if someone want to anonymously post a video of the test server, they can do it and get away with it, regardless of signing an NDA. That shouldn't matter. People should be able to post their test server experiences publicly (it should have its own forum), that way the information gets out to everyone. You are looking at the test server process completely the wrong way: you should WANT open public discussion of the results. Right now it just looks like you are scared of what people might say.



Chill out on the test server process. Customers will respect you much more if you open up the process and let information flow freely. I want to help you guys test, so please come to your senses.

If you believe that your ID will not be given the proper care and security, then once again simply do not participate in the program. I am closing this thread, as there is nothing else to discuss. __________________ Share MO with others
