Stop peeing in the pool.

Jita riots of last year had nothing to do with highsec whiners... Had to do with ccp and its attitude towards us.. Not listening to the player base.. Few other issues too.

But I agree that concord needs to go.. If Eve is to be a true sandbox game No more police.. Let players dictate how this game runs... Those highsec whiners have been crying for years..

It will be ugly and cool and exciting... Those who have the will and intelligence will survive.. The rest will die.. Twisted

I wish ccp and its players the best...

I'm leaving eve for a while.. Maybe next year there might be some more cool stuff. Maybe not.. But one can hope. Lol

You have to be relatively intelligent to realize how stupid you really are!”

Until a decent rival game is released CCP can get away with World of Eve(tm)

Just have to hope this game remains playable until such a rival is released

Well, when you put it that way, it certainly seems like one way to approach the issue...

It's pointless, totally pointless, to play a game where every single gate is camped.
You're an idiot who has never been to lowsec. I get in and out of lowsec all the time with nary a gatecamp to be found.

Try Otelen to Huola. Or Aurcel to Egghelende. There are never gate camps there, unless a freighter has been spotted.

I'm not saying that people can't play their game. People can happily run incursions in highsec. People can happily mine in highsec. People can happily mission in highsec. People can happily haul in highsec. My complaint is that the risk/reward ratio is becoming increasingly skewed to more reward for less risk. That is not EVE Online. And if CCP continues down that road, it will eventually kill their game.

When I first started to play in early 2007, folk were complaining that Eve was becoming too easy and that Eve would die.

Eve numbers have actaully increased quite considerably since then.

The game is called EvE,
The gate that brought us here is called EvE,
The universe you fly in is called New Eden.

I've only received one angry letter from PETA, so far. I think they're too busy right now with their rage over Pokemon.

Eve is a bit like being at the beach. Most people want to go for a swim out into the sea and go on little boats and stuff but they also like to come back to the beach to eat an icecream or whatever.

Take away the beach and it's just sea, and no-one will come. Take away the sea and it's just a desert, and no-one will come.

You compare EVE to a beach at the sea but conveniently forget to mention anything about the sharks?

Shame on you.

Sharks are a perceived threat, as there are less than 10 fatal shark attacks worldwide each year it's a non-issue... now encountering an orange very tall oompa-loompa around New Jersey. There's the real risk

Oh I wouldn't call tens of thousands of sharks flocked together a mere perceptive threat, although that very notion in itself would also be very very accurate for EVE Twisted

I have my doubts about this claim. You'll have to give some examples of what players felt was being made easy.
