i disagree with this change. CCP should keep the language channels. Now some random ppl going to take ownership and rule it as their wish. Terribad idea.

Might as well ban the use of any ingame communication in languages not officially supported and be done with it. Do you really think the problem will be less in the 'unofficial' player-run language channelsRoll

One Game, one Universe, one server......so one language then? English?....again CCP is missing the mark in my point of view of what could be a great opportunity for revenue. Embracing diversity, Making a game that breaks language barriers, even more....making a true human wide sandbox game addressing all.

More than a year a go we had this POST by one of the DEVs where CCP was looking for PAID translators!

.....that was then and know this. EVE Online is a great game, CCP has lots of opportunities.

There is no shame in saying you don't know something, and there is no glory in keeping knolege to yourself.

Ok, you close our language channel. So I cancel the subscription with this reason.
Never think I will come back without any support about this issue.

There was at least 100 capsuleers in channel, but now new channel have only 16. Now you will see what you have done.

This wasn't good, CCP, wasn't good. I'm logging in tonight to set a long skill. Might be a while before you see me in New Eden again. If at all. Just don't have the heart for it.

"Enduring", "restrained" and "ample" as designations for starship components are foreign to the genre of high-tech science fiction and don’t belong in Eve Online. (And as for “scoped” …)

"Español" population on Sep. 29th: 109
New "Spanish" population on September 30: 15
New "Casinos y furcias" population: 16
CONCORD population: 2
Noobs in all channels: zero

Language channels succesfully consolidated into a wasteland. Roll

The situation for German language channels is similar. Around 5 (rather even more) channels with German having the highest population (around 70 yesterday at prime time), Real Old German being next up (12 yesterday).
And there already were some individuals that appear to envy that there are so many in the German channel. People's nature. Roll

And once again, CCP is its own worst enemy, doing stupid stuff that hurts them and their own game.

I still don't understand why they have this keen autodestructive attitude, and who's in charge of pulling the trigger of the gun aimed at their own foot.

Or maybe I know.

And he ordered his devs to NOT come here and explain/discuss.

Italian channel has already been poached. Who could ever have imagined? *eyeroll*

And all of this, officially, because russians and ukrainians can't really behave, and CCP washes its hands at it.

Yep, -F <3 you, too.

Guess I'll just take the hint - you neither want feedback nor discussion.

Can some ISD please move this thread to the EVE Information Portal and out of General Discussion?
Ah, CCP > rules, nevermind.
Anyway, have to report it.

What a terrible idea this was.

Nyjil's corollary to Malcanis' Law:   "Any attempt by CCP to smooth the learning curve of EVE Online will be carried out via the addition of extra factors and 'features' such that there is a net increase in complexity."

New players are being punished without them even knowing.

Killing an idea is worse than anything else!

Ah well look at it on the bright side , page 68 and counting on the day the thread is created for the new ''power projection nerf'' off capitals .


Yup , we got such a great community mostly looking out for the newbs and not our own ass .... Blink

We are all born ignorant, but one must work hard to remain stupid.

As someone who frequents foreign language channels, it is great to have this large fracture in the community. Before, I only needed to have a single window open to have a general public chat with other people. I think there are only six or so vying to be the main channel for a single language. There is no way that this will be problematic at all I don't think. In a socially based game, it is important to keep the community as fragmented as possible.

We don't want people to have too much fun.

People have stopped caring about the issue of the next person.

Minds infected by decadence.
They forget that at one point, they too, will be the next person.

Making things happen together is easy ...
... the hard part is making the "together" happen.

The foreign language channel change did/does not have any impact on me as i rarely visit it andd mostly know it from the days when i was new to eve yet i felt the need to stand up for the newbro as most of them can't stand up for themselves as they haven't even discovered the game yet.When i noticed the lack of posts this thread had gotten i was ''shocked'' and after a few days i could only hope that they made a change that would hugely impact the veteran players as some kind of retaliation to their ignorance.

I got a LOT more then i asked for , that i can assure you.
