Sup Hemmo? o7

A loyality program would be nice, even though everything on the market is freely tradable. So with enough ISK people could buy the reward and it loses some of the 'value' of getting it.

I agree wholly on the description of the BC though.

The games people rip on here give better rewards for loyalty than Eve and have more subs than Eve. Its obviously not a direct result, but crying about peoples sense of entitlement is all the rage these days both in this game and RL. People need to understand that there's a subtle difference. No country is going to give everyone free welfare money, health benefits and food, because it would take too many resources. People ARE going to play the game that gives them the most for their money.

not sure if he's whining that he didn't get an Apotheosis (OP, that was the "EVE is 5" gift in 2008) or that the Gnosis just has a ****** description.

One of the bitter points of a good bittervet is the realisation that all those SP don't really do much, and that the newbie is having much more fun with what little he has. - Tippia

Your reward for a lengthy subscription is lots of skill points.

Let's keep the discussion civilized.

CCP does not have to give out anything. But they do.

Christmas Gifts, 5 and 10 year anniversary gifts.
We also got Sarum Magnates, festival launchers, and Implants.
We have been given many extra gifts this year, be content with that.

CCP appreciates all of their players, regardless of out of game issues that may prevent us all from logging in every day.

Many players are in the military and cannot play for months at a time.
Would you penalize them for not staying subbed?

I do not expect additional rewards for continuous subscription timeframes, but perhaps.

There are rewards for ISD contribution. If you promote eve by major involvement in the community sometimes they reward that.

It might be nice to get a 24 pack of Quafe Ultra and Starcakes on our Capsular birthday.

I have been here for the past 5 years, having an account subbed for many many months in a row. I have been on your side, CCP, through thick and thin. Created a steady income flow so you devs can do what you love to do and so i can do what i love to do. We enjoyed eatchother for the past 5 years, day after day, week after week, month after month and year after year walking silently with you among the stars.

I still cant believe it that i am playing this game for this long. The resoning for this post is that i think a reward is on its place for the people that stood by your side day after day, week after week, month after month and year after year. A special gift for those that kept the accounts the full 1825 days subscribed.



Your reward is playing EVE.

I thought the hard work ccp does to make this game good was reward enough. Not saying ccp is perfect they live in Iceland you know they eat rotten shark strange people I say.We don't pay for new stuff in game (real life cash wise) They never charge us for new content, They try there best even tho they could do better to fix low sec dang it. CCP does care, but for one to demand something is just silly. If we going to demand something I want to be able to strap corpses onto my ship that be cool ccp.Lol

One would think that people will play the game that they enjoy regardless of the rewards or lack of.

A few comments for you, Gally:

1. I have always loved your name. 4th Doctor, forever.
2. Completely agree on the whole "CCP doesn't have to give you anything"... I've always been one of the players that pushes that thought every time people complain about the gifts.
3. I am one of those military players, and although my first toon (created on Day1) was lost to Basic Training and my first deployement, and this toon has holes in his history due to many military and personal life issues... I complain not one whit (although, in my rare sober moments, I do occasionally forget that PLEX-for-SP is a dumb idea, even if it's to recover time I would have been subbed had the Army not been shuffling me all over the planet)
4. Amazing game world, and I hope it sticks around another ten years.
5. WTF are Starcakes?
