I do enjoy a cheap bottle of whine every so often... but the flood that will be coming in concerns me.

Can we get a new general forum subsection specifically for paying players? Preferably one that the unwashed masses cannot view?

We need a proper gentleman's club where our level of shiptoasting can be maintained... and to openly laugh at the plebeians below.

How does one define negative post quality?

Take a post with positive quality and subtract it from zero.

I would say C&P because the threat of catching a dose of the "Getting-shot-in-the-face" is high this time of the year.

With no barrier to entry, there could very well be a significant drop in the post quality around here so prepare yourself.

There is no way that the majority of the posts in here could get any lower in quality. Unless people with rail spikes in their heads learn how to post.

The CSM gets in the way of CCP communicating properly with the players of this game.

After all we are not just players, we are customers.

Time for the CSM to be disbanded.

A hug? No thanks. Last time it was suspiciously poky and generally of awkward length. Your rubbing of my back the whole time didn't help, either.
I am concerned the ISD guy will quickly get alcohol poisoning from taking shots everytime the people are stupid. Safety first.

I was wondering about that. If Alphas get full forum access, we'll see a lot of whinging about the game being unfair, ganking being too easy, PLEX being too expensive, Eve being nothing like WoW and lots of "solutions" to percieved problems with the game. Now that I'm reading what I just wrote, it doesn't sound like there will be much of a difference after all. Move along, nothing to see here.

This is such BS. I think you are confusing vets and noobs here. Only vets care about stuff like this. PLEX prices high are bad for vets and pay their sub with it, but noobs sell PLEX to get "crazy" money. Enough ISK to buy a PLEX for us is a drop in the bucket. When I was starting out though, I remember losing my first Badger mk1 and thinking "Fraaack! That was like 10 million ISK! This sets be back hours!!" Basically what I'm trying to say is a PLEX worth of ISK is worth a hell of a lot more to a new player than a month of game time. Also, if they play WoW (which I've admittedly never done) they read enough gaming news to know EvE's reputation. We've been here awhile. I haven't seen comparisons drawn like that on the forums in years.

And who is going to gank a noob? Who does that? I gank for ISK. Sometimes lulz or boredom, but mostly ISK. CODE. ganks because that is what they do. Still, even they have standards. Newbs won't be using the mining barges CODE. likes for a while. I can see CODE nixing a few ventures for sure though... but SOMEBODY has to do it. It'll be a great life lesson in EvE for those guys. Hell I was in minerbumping the other day and some guy that ganked me posted a rather embarrassing killmail in chat... me on autopilot in an unfit frig (ran out of shuttles) and my 400mil pod. Flying an unfit ship on autopilot is dumb. The newbs will learn that. Maybe someday I will too. I don't think anything is going to go down like you say.

They will need to haul stuff, and they can only fly T1 industrials, and badly at that, so ... you telling me people don't go for shitfit T1 haulers?
