This company basically promotes griefing and trolling. They IP ban people for online stalking, but then temp ban people for trying to rally the community behind them in promoting the suicide of a depressed player.

Consider this scenario: Some jerk won't stop lamenting a player with insults because he has no empathy and enjoy the reaction. The person being insulted gets very upset over time and starts "harassing" the bully to get back at him. CCP bans the victim and allows the bully to carry on.

The amount of times I have seen such vile, horrible unwarranted things said in game... only to report it... only to see that player still active with no consequence. The ToS is a joke, quite honestly. They pick and choose what they want to enforce. The result is some people get IP banned for standing up for what they think is right, while others get no ban at all for turning on their game for the sole purpose of bullying people and laughing as they get upset.

Think about this CCP. You can't deny you indirectly promote online bullying by acting in this way. It's a good thing you allow us to buy PLEX in game. No one with a moral compass at all would hand you a dollar of theirs.

My calculations state I would have coughed up just over $200 by the end of the year. Your loss and I hope others feel the same way as I do and add to that loss.



you don't ge t eve. Eve is a game about making other people SAD.And its intentional.. and i thanks CCP for that.

OP is a hypocrite. How are you posting on these forums if you are not currently paying for at least one product on a monthly basis.

I don't buy stuff from CCP because it's a total pain in the ass.

From putting in the order, to doubling the cost in delivery charges, to waiting six months for it to show up, it's just not worth it for a firickin' key chain.

The fact of the matter is, unsubbing your account in rage does NOTHING. it shows that you plan to come back eventually, so why would CCP give a **** about your unsub. Now, if you REALLY want to make a statement, BIOMASS all your characters and then unsub! Only then will CCP get the picture that you are truly mad and truly mean what you say.

Unsubbing without biomassing is like the 3 year old laying on the ground in Walmart throwing a tantrum. Yeah, we know youre upset, but frankly we are all just going to ignore you.


Since the cessation of their usefulness is imminent, may I appropriate your belongings?

Unsubbing works just fine. You have no WIS and Microtransactions because of mass unsubs. Biomassing is absolutely not essential and to suggest it is your lame ass attempt at alienating someone displeased with the game and voicing their concern.

And also, you aren't ignoring them nor can you speak for anyone else.

If the guy was continuously harassing this other guy then he needed to be banned, you can't use excuses like "well he did it to me first" if your actions are only worsening a conflict instead of resolving it.

I'm confused as to what there is to buy anyway. I have 3 accounts, soon to be 2, which I pay a subscription for. I have ships, modules, ammo, and over a bil isk and I'm not 11 months into the game. The "clothing " store thingy is crap mostly because I never see my char or anyone elses except as forum avatars. What is it OP would be dumping RL cash into the game for? Please say it is for an officer fit raven to grind L4s with...also what system.
