Well, on behalf of those who appreciate the effort put in over the last year: thank you. You did a good job and it is appreciated.

So yeah, here's the thing.

I've just come back from FanFest X. I had a really good time*. I went to some panels and presentations and whatnot (btw: apologies for the craptastic CSM panel; there was supposed to be a presentation and stats and facts and such, but there was apparently a technical difficulty, so we got stranded in "So... er... any questions?" mode). I spent most of my time talking to other EVE players. Not just devs, not just CSM people, mostly just ordinary EVE (and some DUST) players.

Here's a thing I discovered that you need to know: there are players out there who genuinely like this game. They're able to combine scepticism with enthusiasm. They can see the upsides of change as well as downsides. You can discuss development with them, and even people who are worried that their current profession is threatened or challenged can have a sensible conversation about how to adapt and even profit.

It's possible.


Who knew?

You told me that you regretted voting for me before the election was even over!



Anyway the moral is: never read forums.

Just stick to one. And don't read them sober. Same as playing!

Well, the only thing this new set of lobbyists does is ensure that high sec is wiped out at an even more accelerated rate.
Naturally, a year from now, and subs are down even more, I am sure it will be the fault of the high sec casual player for not willing to adapt.

That is unless, of course, the null sec cartels don't mandate all their serfs to open up a new account, solely to boost the subscription base.

It is abundantly clear that the cartels have directed CCP to give up on the concept of growing the width of the base, put instead pin their hopes on hard core players opening up even more alt accounts, at least until Valkyrie is ready for release.

Dinsdale, three things.

Yeah, that first part is what I also predict will happen, and the forum response.

The second part I don't see happening as it's impossible to enforce without CCP getting sued, laws of Iceland or no.

The third part I agree with again, as that's pretty much what happened with Ultima Online, so there's precedent there.

Not sure why you're getting all worked up. I voted like everyone else who took the time to read the platforms and pick their candidates. CSM is decided. Even as ex-CSM, I think your behavior should be classy. You're an example to the rank and file of EVE, like me.

Or, stomp up and down and flag posts to ISD like a GD pubbie.

Lol what?

Yeah, I'm not letting that one pass.

Ultima Online is one of the greatest examples of a game sacrificing it's loyal playerbase at the altar of "mainstream appeal". It was the first game to truly kill itself for the sake of casuals, and remains one of the most painful examples of this as well, as no game since has had such a depth of player freedom as UO once had.

If hisec is wiped out at an even more accelerated rate the game is vastly improved at an even more accelerated rate
