Simple really...

We would have had the following:

- Planetary flight.
- Fully opened stations
- Comet mining
- Atmospheric environments ( Flight within giant asteroid formations)
- An entire new POS system/mechanic
- A redone SOV system.

I could go on...

I'm not trolling honestly. I simply believe you don't have an honest point. Why shouldn't CCP diversify? Why should CCP invest all its chickens in one basket so to speak?

TBH you got the last lock because you were raging and I think you are again.

CCP ?

Chicken and eggs in the basket are fine if edible.

Dust is a rotten egg in the eve basket and we are paying for it to stay there.

Don't get me started on vampires lol.

You're whining about how CCP manages their investments. You can't argue with their money. It must be irritating having someone telling you what to do with your money, isn't it?

That's how a company and developers roll, they have a lot of ideas to market.

No matter how loud anyone rants and whine isn't going to change their roadplan or their minds. Mind you, EVE is their flagship so they would not hinder it. Granted our Expansions are free on a regular basis.

how has the real life cash you've spent worked out when the company to you payed it too reduced the resources on what you were paying for and devoted it elsewhere?

Heh. Funny thing is if i recall the specific misdemeanour in question was involving an isd giving advice to players warning them about certain players thus tampering with the sandbox


That seems a bit...odd. I mean hey, if I crossed a line I'll hold my hands up. It just seems...I mean really? I could just message them in pm, warn people in local or in any of the chats, but mentioning a well loved single person Eve Institute is smacked wrist worthy? I actually adore characters like Spaceship Barbie, mainly because they're fixed points in Eve which you can mention and everyone gets all warm and fuzzy about 'em.

Right, deep breath and let me try this again. If I say one trick pony do you understand what I mean? Do you understand one trick pony Corporations (Which I might add CCP is trying not to be) Don't, well survive? At all?

I should point out at this point out that, at this junction I can find no other option that, you are either raging (against forum tos) or trolling (again against forum Tos)

I don't know. I think your last thread touched a nerve of the powers that be.

You see, I've seen plenty of ranting and trolling in the high-sec versus lowsec threads and the threads go on for 40 pages, but when you question business models people get mad.

Looking to talk on VOIP with other EVE players? Are you new and need help with EVE (welfare) or looking for advice? Looking for adversarial debate with angry people?
