By interfering with the latest Goon project of using FW to farm LP, CCP has proven that they hate the sandbox.

That was kind of stupid for an OP don't you think?

Disagree. It just means when the sand falls out of the sandbox they like to put it back in. Fixing one area that can be abused does not mean the game is not a sandbox.

The uproar over this by a very small segment of the gaming population is hilarious.

"I could have put this single mindless statement in the other thread about this topic, but nah its enough content for a new post of its own."

You asked me once, what was in Room 101. I told you that you knew the answer already. Everyone knows it. The thing that is in Room 101 is the worst thing in the world.

Given he is pubbie filth I don't see why would want him in our flock... its not even a flock. More of a herd really. A herd of kittens. Have you ever tried getting a herd of kittens to do anything?

You're assuming that this was a problem. It really wasn't. It was emergent gameplay.

Emergent gameplay is what exits my rear after a night of boozing.. so I guess that is an apt description.

Hey OP, it must suck when the people you're trying to impress don't like you, huh?

I'm indifferent really.

Just annoys me that CCP only calls EVE a sandbox when its convenient.

That's okay it annoys me when people pile on new definitions to the word sandbox every time CCP does something they don't like.

By the by it means non linear gameplay. and free roam worlds.

We could also stop with the jumping on mindless bandwagons. The assets in question have only been seized for investigation. A prudent tactic on CCP's part that will almost certainly backfire when they find out math is hard. Even when Aryth and his bros are cleared of any wrong doing something will be screwed up somewhere.
