What do you think it could be, aside from rage rooted in ignorance? I'm pretty sure they changed the server that day anyway, and the effects weren't permanent. Some people still got mad as hell though, because instead of mining Veld or running missions like they normally did, they were exploded immediately upon undocking.

I wrote some true EVE stories! And no, they're not of the generic "my 0.0 alliance had lots of 0.0 fleets and took a lot of 0.0 space" sort. Check them out here:

Could you imagine the joy if it happened to Jita? Or Amarr?

*sniffs*

Cuz even CONCORD needs a day off, you know.

Cool


This has happened before. If I remember correctly, a bunch of bears threatened to class-action against CCP because of the losses they took that day.

If that's true I wonder what their basis was.

As far as I can remember 'Armageddon'-day has never happened on TQ after it went live. Perhaps they did in beta. I've participated in Armageddon day and flew caps in Jita - however this was done on SiSi.

I do remember when Sarum Prime was low-sec though hehehe

Didn't they basically put SiSi on TQ that day, though? You didn't need to use a different client to connect. I mentioned this in my previous post. And like I said, the fact that it wasn't permanent didn't stop people from getting their panties in a bunch.

The hell does that even mean? The subscription is a subscription to access the servers. No more no less. They don't owe us anything other than access to those servers. What else do you want?

Content access?


If you want content, go DO something. It's a big universe out there.

Grrr.

Not that I recall, and according to this http://oldforums.eveonline.com/?a=topic&threadID=614658 it was on SiSi. I remember there was less people online than a normal TQ day, but I do believe you could use your regular TQ install bc they were running the same version.

I remember the Citadel fitted Enigma's... they were fun!

What content do you believe yourself blocked from accessing? Because I can assure you the rest of us aren't.

One need only look at the moba community, or rather the games to realize this sort of "discrimination" already exists with developers. Rewarding/punishing players based on how they act towards others. I for one look forward to CCP UaE and his zero tolerance gimme policy.


Another vote for CCP UaE..Big smile

Let's get rid of all the entitled "Gimme"-kids in the game.

Correct.

And they do that.

You have 1 subscription = 1 set of Xmas gifts.

The extra training of 2nd / 3rd character, is still on 1 subscription.P


And, CCP being there for us 365 days a year... I would say, we owe them a present, not the other way around.

Damn kids and their damn gimme threads.


Gimme gimme gimme. its all they say.


Not one asks "What can I give CCP or the greater Eve community for the holidays?".


Your gift this year is the fact that im not a dev, because if I were CCP UaE, id be keeping a list of the gimme's, and they would get jack ****. If the number of gimme's reached a good percentage of the Eve current population, I would use my 20% time to make a super ******* fantastic Christmas gift for the players.. one that was sooo ******* good it made you literally orgasm with joy, and then make sure the gimme's knew that they weren't getting one.. at all.. on ANY account they had, period. And when they complained, oh and they would complain with the most delicious entitlement whines you've ever heard in your life, im talking diabetes inducing tearful sweetness.. id lock their threads with only a Big smile as the reason.








We are PAYING customers? I have never seen a more skimpy subscription based game than eve.


What the cost of the "expansions/development" that CCP charges? Oh right!

Does it mean I will get 2 sets of whatever the Christmas presents are?
What and/or if CCP has something for us this year, has not been announced so at this point one can only guess what will happen.

On the note of giving extra to those that dual train, I would advice writing a proposal for review and post it in the Features & Ideas Discussion part of the forum.

Thread locked.
