Do this. Bam. You're done. Everyone's happy.

The submission process should be made lawyer-proof, that's for sure.

How ever it gets resolved, it should get resolved soon because a key component of EVE is the sense of belonging to something bigger than oneself. The alliance structure is a significant part of that.

Look, just sticky this thread so we don't have to bump it. We're not going to forget, and more importantly, we're not going to let you forget.

well put.

but for now bump is what we can only do to keep this thread somewhere on the top hoping ccp notices it...

I mean about a month ago, this is what I was told

Quote:
All alliance logo submissions are on hold, which means that no more alliance logos will be added to EVE Online until the issues at hand are taken care of. You can read more about it in this news item:

http://community.eveonline.com/news/news-channels/eve-online-news/alliance-logo-submissions-on-hold/

Apologies for not being able to assist further, but we cannot add new logos to the system at present.

If you have any further questions or comments, or would like this support ticket closed as resolved, please feel free to reply.

basically pointing u back to square one with no real info or what so ever

I understand that CCP Legal is still sulking because their grand design didn't go down with the players as well as they wanted it to, but maybe it's time to tell them to shut up and do their job?

Gallente born and raised, and tutored as a pleasure slave and courtesan to the exotic tastes of the Amarri court. Jade's career veered violently off course when a diplomatic envoy's transport was blown to pieces in mysterious circumstances and she was rescued from the escape pods by the enigmatic genetic mastermind Athule Snanm.

i payed for my Logo (waiting for submission process to restart) which i am happy to allow CCP to use as they see fit from now until the end of time

as long as they realize it is MY IP and i can ALSO use it any way i see fit until the end of time

on a side note....CCP must not have been taught about sharing as a kid

As I slipped my finger slowly inside her hole, I could immediately feel it getting wetter and wetter.

I took my finger back out and within seconds she was going down on me.

"I really need a new boat," I thought to myself.

Falcon, since you have asked that we keep the discussion of this issue to this thread, could you please sticky it so it is easier to find, and helps prevent people creating unnecessary new threads on the same topic.

Edit: you may also wish to edit your OP to include the advice you gave in James thread for ease and clarity, and to show that it's still on CCP's agenda.

This is the part that concerns me most:

For now, the alliance logos that are in game will remain there


and

In terms of a resolution to the issue, we'll be looking at it as part of a rehash of corporations and alliances in an upcoming release.


Which makes you appear as though you're considering, at some point in the future, the removal of alliance logos as part of some replacement system (a system similar to, say, how corp logos are made).

Do
not
remove
alliance
logos
EVER


You will make a lot of people extremely angry if you do this, and doubtless some people will leave the game over it.

Template logos like what we have with corporations cannot provide the same sense of individual expression and identity that custom-designed logos can. If you go this route you will be making a tremendous mistake and alienating a large portion of your playerbase even further than you already have with this fiasco.

CCP didn't read what happened with Facebook, and now the same thing's happening to them too, only they don't have the muscle to **** the users while at the same time keeping the userbase, unlike Facebook. They also are hiding behind lawyers stuck in the 14th century where a name was all you had. Not good.
