So, I'm putting together a list for my local CSM rep, and need some input.

CCP has decided that it is comfortable once again giving away rare and valuable in-game items to favored corporations. Kudos to them - they got kinda burned last time, and it obviously took them some time to recover. But now, CCP is ready to trust/vouch once again, and I think the community should do what they can to ease CCP back into the game of patronizing select corporations.

So, if you could, please answer:

1. What corp do you think deserves free stuff from CCP?

2. Why do you think they deserve free stuff from CCP?

3. What types of free stuff do you think that corp needs?

4. What do you think that corp will do with their free stuff?

Honest and sincere answers will be appreciated.

EDIT: CCP is now also giving out free BlinkScorps to favored corporations. Feel free to consider this in your answer as well.

Do CCP not realise that even if a corporation/group are totally 100% trustworthy and legit that giving them special treatment like this destroys the competitive nature of this game?

The benefit to that group of players in the long run is incalculable - more so than the raw value of the limited edition things CCP handed them.

I think I deserve the same freebies given to any or all other corps.

Everybody should get one golden magnate, fair and square.

Ugly mafia stuff, CCp is astonishing in its ability to disappoint me even more each time i think that they have reached the bottom.

And the babbies did come out unto the forums and cried "why is EVE so unfair!?", forgetting previously their cries of "EVE is a game where you can be the villain!"
And the babbies did rant and they did rage, making many a clone thread to try and sway the fickle GMs.
And lo, did CCP come down unto the babbies, and they looked upon their posts, and not one **** was given that day.
And the babbies fell from the grace of their god.

Not only corps - as long as CCP is giving away billions, why shouldn't they give it to one of us?

CCP can make this work, imo, by doing two things:

  1. Creating several new rare ships rather than tarnishing the classic ones, and
  2. Asking SOMER Blink to purchase those ships. They're a for-profit, fer gawd sakes, and they're going to make bigtime isk on those ships. They for damm sure can afford it, and I for one will quit complaining if they do both these things.

There's real reasons why your Eve character doesn't do /dance.

Then why shouldn't everyone have a chance to purchase those ships and just Somer Blink?

To be honest if auctioning super rare ships via Somer Blink is necessary, it should be done by Somer buying the ships from their current owners, not by dev's spawning them for favourites.

I have no objection to giving everyone a chance to purchase them - not only SOMER Blink - but they should be priced more or less according to their true value. Which would be A LOT. Still, if somebody's got the isk for the job, then sure.

1) NPC Corps
2) Because you shouldn't have to play with others in an MMO think of the noobs!
3) Wardec immunity
4) Avoid consequences of their actions

I don't think I'm doing this right, am I?

They can give Chribba and his corp all the free crap.

All you other corps can burn in hell.

Looking to talk on VOIP with other EVE players? Are you new and need help with EVE (welfare) or looking for advice? Looking for adversarial debate with angry people?
