Why not?

Plenty of people love spaceships, why not start a kickstarter promising people the world, and then some. While you're at it, give me a job as marketing leader of leads, and I'll promote your game several ways, the street gang ms13 uses graffiti to declare their turf, so I'll go to their turf and spraypaint CCP, and eve propaganda, maybe even kill a few gang members to let them know CCP is for real, we'll start collecting tax on the local drug dealers/hotdog sales men. Before you know it we got the police backing us up to raid the competition with swat. Lets turn CCP into the criminal organization it needs to be.

Really? You can't be serious.

Why don't you go suggest to Rovio, EA, or some other tech company how they should run their business and raise revenue?

Just because you play the game doesn't give you much leverage to suggest how CCP should be managed. That's what the owners do.

A serious proposal doesn't involve 30 sec to click 'New Topic', write a sentence and then hit 'Post'. That you did that clearly demonstrates the level of thought and analysis that has gone into this suggestion. That's why it can't be serious. If you were serious about it, a public forum wouldn't be the place to propose it. Write a detailed business proposal and submit it directly to CCP.

Because as a company with a product that already makes money, they don't need to.

Who would give money to a company which cannot deliver anything but debugs with $16mil R&D budget?

Have you loaded the client lately? loads of delivery in it, whilst it's fine to criticise an aspect of the game you'd like to see improved, writing the whole game of as undeliverable is unfair. CCP do great work and whilst I take issue with some of their decisions I usually come around to their point of view in the end and recognise that ultimately it makes the game better.

Kickstarter is not the solution to ****ing everything. Take off the skinny jeans, people, they're starting to cause brain death.
