"Anti-Ghettoization Front" or something, because that's what the "more subs" people want but don't realize they want lol.

I've asked many times why these "more subs" people think that millions of people playing EVE (well, actually playing Tidi lol) would be a good thing and they never have a good answer for it.

EVE is like Hawaii, it's cool because it's small and has nice features to play with. Hawaii , like EVe, would be several thousand times less cool if it suddenly gained several million people lol.


We could call it the New Eden Defense League.... oh wait

But more seriously, i can't even put a number to the amount of bad ideas I've seen about EVE, and it's no wonder CCP ignores most outside ideas.

The problem isn't the idea, it's the fact that the people support ideas think they are infallible. They are so infallible that "nothing could possibly go horribly wrong if ccp just fixes the game the way I tell them too".

I've had game ideas before, but actually being an honest adult human being I sat myself down and made myself consider all the possible downsides and unintended consequences that could happen with the idea and then realized that If in just a few minutes I could come up with all this, what happens when that idea get implemented and 10s of thousand of EVE players get a chance to try to break it?

End result is I end up NOT posting a stupid idea. lol. Most of these idea people are too dishonest or too arrogant to ever do that.

Introducing more modules for gate-camping without introducing modules to counter them.

Anything that involves players having or gaining advanced Jovian tech.

Reaching or being invaded by Terrans/Earth.

Yes. So yes. Because clearly these same folk that are voting in politicians in Europe and America are doing a tremendous job making decisions on how things should be run in the real world. No of course you don't have to ever be wrong.

More modules?


Which modules are specific for gate campers already?

I meant that people pitch ideas for new modules and there will be a stupidy overpowered one on the list that they've suggested for gate-camping and don't suggest any counter or balance for it. I'm fine with adding stuff but you've got to balance it at least a little.

Wasn't there an idea to make a pure non-PvP server a couple of months ago?
Surely you can't get worse than that?

Worst idea that hasn't been implemented: NPC banks. In itself the idea of banks is good but any CCP involvement in the financial market is bad.

Worst idea that actually GOT implemented: seeing probes on d-scan. Anyone who thinks that was a good idea should click here

Probes do NOT show up in Hello Kitty Online.


Not until they are well on their way to your colon.

Most things i've read come from people wanting things made easier. Press butan, receive instant bacon stuff.

I am against things that make the game easier. I'm in this game for the challenges. To get the big rewards in the game, you have to be smart. You have to be informed and you have to study. The EvE learning curve is what attracted me to this game.

So many times i tell people. READ about and STUDY the game. The more informed you are, the better you will do.

My 2 cents anyway...and the 3 cents i took from one of Ramona's orphaned kids. Hopefully she wont notice.

They weren't orphans before we took them in.






Also when you are around the orphans, the cents are called "chocolate buttons".




Without eyes and tongues they cant tell the difference lol

EVE having forums.

Pon Farr Memorial: once every 7 years, all the carebears in high-sec must PvP or they will be temp-banned.
