You do realise they don't have to give you anything.

I am just gonna accept a ship and give it to a newbee in one of the starter systems.
It's a gift that keeps on giving.

Just confirming that the OP is a self entitled douchebag as is any other asshat that is complaining about the gift options.

1st of all I didn't came knocking on your doorstep and started to complain about how crappy your lawn looks like so be nice.
And I'm really sorry for the lot of that don't get the point of the post. Don't really care, since I'm expressing my view on the matter not asking for permission or acknowledge from you.
I feel that if one has to show gratitude to another, for whatever the reasons are, one should be at least polite enough not to make the gifted party feel, well unappreciated i guess.
And I don't mean to be ungrateful or something, I'm just saying how this act from CCP left me feel.
A gift is a gift, but this isn't a date, and i'm not impressed.

Firstly: OP still has no idea, still feels entitled to his own misguided opinion

secondly: My lawn looks awesome, I like it wild.

thirdly: I feel that "never look a gift horse in the mouth" should be explored more thoroughly

lastly: You don't get a date.

@Op

Good grief, what the........

You are correct Sir!!

There are NO Tinfoil hats in the gift list, what bad treatment is this ?
Not even a set of crap-post filter spectacles, you know, the one's we use to automatically blot-out crap posts like yours.

Look up the definition of the word "gift".

They started this new way of doing things with a bang, it doesn't mean that the expectations the opening event created should have to be exceeded or matched every time they give us free stuff. By keeping the odd gifts small it remains easy to meet expectations in the long term, I wouldn't expect a choice even approaching the scale of last years to happen until at the very earliest christmas, if we're lucky.

Besides, hopefully the news articles about recent events will lure in some new players, those free gifts are going to be extremely important to them. A cruiser is the attainable future for noobs, not the distant past. Noobs are important, without them no game would ever have become a success, simply because we were all noobs once.
