Don't misinterpret keeping systems running smoothly for advocating the actions of one alliance.


"Last night I got an email - Jita was at 2100. Time dilation kicked in at 15 per cent. And there were people just watching the sh*t that was going down. It was brilliant. It was absolutely great."

Lander added: "We want people to be able to do this. If Goonswarm want to do it, we want them to do it and we want them to have a great time doing it.

"The worst thing we could do is to stop it happening. It would be appalling for the game. It would be against everything we stand for."



What part of the above did you not understand, pubbie? CCP is on the side of the Sandbox.

1) I have an active SA account, pubbie. You got :10bux:?

2) You don't seem to understand that what CCP is proud of is their servers staying up and kicking during this AND that players are having a good time. NOWHERE was it stated that they ENDORSE the actions taken by Goonswarm which is what you seem to be seeing, apparently. They want people to be able to do whatever they want in the game, they never put out details of any actions by anyone.

3) I have absolutely no issues with what's going on in Jita myself, I just want to know how it's going to affect my gameplay, which is the purpose of this thread.

Jita is pretty much full boys and girls.

1850 in local, tidi at 90%, 3505 ships killed since midnight, 285 in the last hour.

Bonanza time for anyone trading in regional hubs Blink

Epic stuff goonies and tomorrow will be insanity on wheels.

A definite +1 from me, well funny.

Jon Lander told Eurogamer today that CCP approved.

Jita will still be there next week.....

Edit - "I tell you what, it's going to be f***ing brilliant," Jon Lander, senior producer of Eve Online, told Eurogamer this morning. "Absolutely brilliant.

"There was one bug [the 'bookmark escaping agro bug'] in the game that meant that if they do the things they're going to do, they could have escaped the in-game consequences. So we fixed that bug about three weeks ago. And they went, okay.

"They're going to do exactly what you're able to do in the game, and people will have to roll with it. It'll be great.

"Last night I got an email - Jita was at 2100. Time dilation kicked in at 15 per cent. And there were people just watching the sh*t that was going down. It was brilliant. It was absolutely great."

If we get 2600 in Jita, the gates to Jita close. IF we get 2000 in the systems next door to Jita, gates to THOSE systems close. In other words, if we do this right, Nothing gets in NOR out of Jita.

Dude the gates are locked right now and the player count in Jita is fluctuating +/- quite a bit. It just dropped 100 and the gates are still locked.

Also since I think we both know that CCP reads the forums and cares about their community, they will respond with answers that are both forward-facing and as fair as possible to all parties.


They did respond, actually:

If it's too long to read, let me sum it up for you:

CCP approves of the Jita burning and thinks you should all harden the **** up.



We'll see how " Absolutely brilliant " Jon Lander thinks it is when people look to another MMO for fun, Muhahahaha


It will be "Absolutely Briliant" when subscriptions go up and you're "Incredibly Disappointed", which I can guarantee that you will be. Here are some more straws for you to grasp at, carry on Doris.

WoW holds your hand until end game, and gives you a cookie whether you win or lose. EVE not only takes your cookie, but laughs at you for bringing one in the first place...

What's up? Is it disrupting your game play? I think that's the general idea behind this, as you were Mabel.

No, but I predict that they will tell you "no", at least to the request in the OP. Actually, they probably won't tell you anything, so you will just have to infer it.

Sounds fairly approving and supportive, even faintly appreciative, to me.

Going to guess that entire statement is thrown with a dose of bias towards his SA buddies. Notwithstanding from a CCP member, so I recede my former argument with a grain of salt.

I like how any time CCP doesn't lockstep fall into line with Carebear demands, they're oooobviously Goon alts or whatever. Because it couldn't possibly be because they have a vision for EVE that doesn't align with Hello Kitty Online: Spaceship Adventures.

Hey Siigari. I saw your Damnation last night playing docking games. Were you having fun with that?

Hah, yeah. Fit had no guns or anything. I was just so happy to finally take some damage in a ship I really enjoy and don't get to fly much any more now that I'm in Push.

I also enjoyed the convo bomb they threw at me trying to get me to disconnect. Really pro-active gameplay there :P

I had to fight like hell to get logged in to Jita, they kept trying to send me to a nearby system.

I have to go to work in an Hr but I will AFK camp it for lulz. Big smile

Since, historically, it's exactly this kind of fun that has made childish, egotistical, griefers look at EVE, he'll probably continue to think it's absolutely brilliant.



Fixed that for you....



And not everyone subscribes to the more infantile the better the game.....Cool

Let me guess you just couldn't last 3 months and 100 posts ?

Fact is that CCP couldn't buy this kind of exposure for the game. This is exactly the sort of stuff that attracts subscribers. If it weren't for exactly this kind of emergent player created content EVE would have went under years ago. Because frankly the game itself just isn't that great. What makes it great is the freedom players have to impact each other.

So of course CCP is loving this, no other MMO can match EVE for player created content.

Took me 32 attempts to get alt logged into Jita at about 16:00.

Insanity on wheels and tomorrow will make today look quiet - total lunacy Eve style Twisted
