EVE General Discussion

To the CCP employee who manages either of these social media outlets,

I don't want to denigrate what you're doing. Since I couldn't be at my computer all day to watch the New Eden Open, I appreciate having all of the recordings from Twitch uploaded to Youtube so that I can watch them as my personal time permits. And I appreciate getting updates about the EVE universe through Google+ because I recently ditched Facebook completely.

That being said, the NEO II videos are rather numerous. Sixty-eight in fact, at the time of this writing. There may be more on the way. I'm not sure. And thanks to the genius minds at Google behind the inter-connectivity between Youtube and Google+, each individual video subsequently gets broadcasted to the G+ feed of anyone who follows the EVE page. Every. single. one. Sixty-eight videos in succession.

This causes a flood of individual posts from the EVE G+ page. I know this wasn't done on purpose. CCP doesn't strike me as the kind of company to intentionally spam social media to the point of annoyance. This is due to a small configuration in the Youtube upload process that is easy to overlook. All that is required to end this annoying overload of videos is one simple step...

I've seen many commenters on G+ say that they have un-followed the EVE page until the video spam is stopped. We shouldn't have to resort to this.

So please CCP, take that little box into consideration when uploading these long series of videos. Take some time to uncheck that box, and instead, wait until the video playlists are properly set up. Then simply link to each playlist. We love EVE, but we obviously don't want it to become a nuisance.

Thank you for your time.

Thanks for the quick reply, and making sure the issue gets addressed. :)

Yeah. This was kinda funny. +2 (one for the OP, one for the Dev)
