Give CCP K1 desk right beside CCP Dolan's desk.

Ah, sorry. Let me rephrase:

Fail to give CCP K1 desk right beside CCP Dolan's desk.

Make it mandatory for new players to post an entirely new AFK cloaking/Local thread before being able to upgrade their subscription from Trial to Full.


I have also removed some rule breaking posts.
The rules:
6. Racism and discrimination are prohibited.

Racism, gender stereotyping and hate speech are not permitted on the EVE Online Forums. Derogatory posting that includes race, religion or sexual preference based personal attacks and trolling can result in immediate suspension of forum posting privileges.


26. Off-topic posting is prohibited.

Off-topic posting is permitted within reason, as sometimes a single comment may color or lighten the tone of discussion. However, excessive posting of off-topic remarks in an attempt to derail a thread may result in the thread being locked, or a forum warning being issued.

New module: Duraglim Ship Cleaner

Brings targeted ship up to a wonderful gloss and hi-shine finish after a number of cycles dependant on age of target by cleansing corrosion/rust/dirt etc.

Side-effect - can be used as a weapon against minmatar vessels as it removes the key structural elements holding them together

Why Bastion units and new Mobile structures with reinforce ability are working without Stroncium Clarates? Where is balance? Why old modules and structures needed some fuel and new are able to work just on "holy spirit"? Space elves and interstellar magic again?
Give it some time; CCP has reserved that 'fix' for a game update in a year or two. 2016: [1 Dev pushes 1 buttan and says] "The code is outdated and was difficult to re-write, but WE managed to fix bastion units and mobile structures so they now require strontium clathrates for reinforce mode. Wow, WE really worked hard for the players. You guys need to give us praise for all this work WE did." [Dev goes back to playing golf]

Not the first time.

Adds new 'feature' to game, waits until enough people are addicted/can not live without the feature, and then releases the last part of the feature to totally f*** them over.
