Hey CCP

Remember back when you guys had the 4x training time bonus for new players til some set SP limit? Any chance you could turn that back on for all the boys and girls as a Xmas gift? Downtime to downtime? Or just leave it on if you guys aren't planning on working the 24th til the 26th.

It would be nice if they let us all fit one during Xmas holiday regardless of sp count.

Im glad to see that everyone is getting a nice case of the Gimmies already.






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

At least they aren't asking for Vindicators or something which is what happened last year.

Now, more than ever, we need a dislike button.

... hangs one big mucking Xmas stocking on the mantle -- per alt -- and puts a keg of beer, with buckets of chicken wings, by the chimney with care...

I support the OP's idea. Dew eet!

I just turned into an egg, did I level up? I spent an hour trying to salvage a wreck, when in local a guy said "Stop it, this is my Tempest, I was AFK"

No.

That said, 65k free SP would be a nice christmas gift.

People are starting their begging early this year for free gift. Do it once and suddenly people expect it to be the norm.

I would like some remaps...

It would be helpful.

Side Note:

It would be so awesome if you could sell remaps, like bookmarks and kill rights.

Oh yes...yes indeed.

I would prefer a remap over a SP bonus. A remap can help you for 6 months or even a year or longer, instead of 3 days.
That said, I would not say no to an SP bonusP

Pff 65k? meh.
650k or just 5x boost is more like it.

You know what would be fun? CCP providing an expansion for free for christmas! Allowing all players to keep up with the game, without the need to shell out money!

Sorry you got it wrong, they are providing a 'patch'. That being said, i am looking forward to this patch and gifts are always nice, despite the constant bitching. Don't like the gift ? Sell it on the market. If you can't sell it it is probably something useful (like a remap).

Looking for a group to pew with ? Have a chat with me.

I propose that as a Christmas present to smart bomb manufacturers, CCP pod kill every character and move everyone's medical clone to Jita 4-4.
