Of course they are, why do you think they're disagreeing with you? Hmm... Perplexing...

It's like you filter out literally every valid point people make, you're an incredibly fascinating being to study.

There are people in this world who are different than you and like different things. Where you see an improvement, they see a detriment. The important thing for CCP to weigh is how many people will a change in YOUR favor affect in a negative way? You don't see that, though. You just keep saying "I want these changes for me and that's all that matters, no one else's opinion counts."

Hehe. I haven't asked for specific changes. I've only asked if if other people see a need for a change.

Do you feel like a fool now? I don't.

"CCP ignores feedback. That's the whole point of this thread.

I am not capable of running away from problems. If something needs to be fixed, I do the best I can to fix it."

So what's the basis on that statement if you've asked for no changes? Please, help us help you, or you will continue to flail about here going on about how nothing's changing when you ask for nothing. People asked for what you want changed and you mentioned hi-sec ganking. Good job, there's one, and people told you their opinions, you called them wrong because you have no idea how anything works, and then went on this same thing of "stop having different opinions than me, guys."

So no, I feel like you should either get to requesting specific changes or deal with the game we have now, because for a guy that can't leave problems lying around, you're making absolutely no progress in addressing them.

I'm sorry, but opinions like yours are not the ones I am interested in. Try looking for the posts that agree with me. There aren't many, but are we the crazy ones? I wouldn't keep posting if I thought we were.

People, save yourself some time. If you don't like the thread, ignore it.

(1) "Only post if you agree with me."
(2) "CCP, look how everyone agrees with me"
(3) ???

I don't agree that more shiney upgrades are going to save the game, though. It appears to me, and maybe me only, that when CCP reaches their goal, whatever that is, we're all going to be neck deep in faeces in an uninhabitable universe. Then the games of 'Russin Sleigh Ride' will start, excpet that people will be volunteering to be thrown to the wolves.


I don't get this, you say that you don't know what CCP's goal is, but somehow you know that it is "wrong".

Could you expand on your rather vague comments on what is actually wrong in your opinion in current EVE, and what kind of changes you suggest to make it better?

I've got a 'metric' I'd like to see CCP reveal that does not suffer from any inaccuracies or abstract difficulty whatsoever, and that's the number of accounts that are presently active, minus trial accounts.
You mean the metric they do reveal with some consistency?

Not Politically Correct wrote:
I didn't mean the number of individual players. I meant the number of paid accounts. All they have to do is count money once a month to figure that out. Ooops. Forgot about PLEXes.
PLEXes make no difference in that count (and counting the money would be inaccurate anyway since there is no single fix cost for an account).

…but which doesn't tell you anything since, again, it's not unique or tied to a single person in any way. If you're saying that you want the client to start mapping its close-by network, I'm sure there is a nice collection of privacy laws that would classify EVE as illegal spyware at that point…



Ok. Let me put it this way. Is there any way for US to find out how many active, non-trial, accounts there actually are?


Why do you need to know? Do you want to see how small in the world you are?

CCP says 450K active accounts, if they lie their investors get pissed off, theres laws about misleading investors you know.

Forum Rules wrote:


5. Ranting is prohibited.

A rant is a long-winded, redundant post, often filled with angry, non-constructive comments. A free exchange of ideas is essential to building a strong sense of community and helpful in the development of the game, but rants are disruptive and incite flaming and trolling. Please post your thoughts in a concise, clear manner and avoid going off on rambling tangents.


6. Personal attacks are prohibited.

Commonly known as flaming, personal attacks are posts that are designed to personally berate or insult another. Text of this nature is not beneficial to the community spirit and will not be tolerated. Corporation, faction and alliance members and other players are cautioned to avoid allowing “in character” disputes from becoming "out of character" personal attacks. The game is designed for role-playing and/or portraying a role and it is sometimes easy for tempers to flare when the lines between the virtual world and the real world are crossed. Please keep in-game disputes in the game and off the forum unless it is clearly a mutual, in-character exchange.


7. Trolling is prohibited.

Trolling is the word used to describe a post that is deliberately designed for the purpose of angering and insulting the players. Posts of this nature are disruptive and do not contribute to the sense of community we want for our forums.
