Just look at your post lol

You really can't help yourself. Lol

Ed: Though it's not for our benefit, Jenn. It's so they can keep making money. ^^


I see the problem and have underlined it.

The guy behind the counter is not the corporation raking in millions in profit, he's a person (who took a job with that corporation so he can eat and sleep inside), who would rather be on a beach somewhere, but instead is struggling with a stupid coffee machine so entitled Gen x and Millennial types can have some coffee.

Those guys who got up on a cold ass night so you could fly ships and I could kill Blood Raiders are likewise people.



I'll leave it alone, because I know I'm old fashioned (and proud of it, screw your modern ways). But it's stunning to me how many people have no concept of basic decency. The OP thanked CCP for their efforts and some people can only poo poo not only on that, but on the entire unique and special thing that is EVE. That's $%^&@ sad.

Misread the title... Buy CCP a bear.


Lol me too! What?

But in all seriousness CCP should buy ME a beer for being such a good subscriber and paying every month on multiple accounts, on time, every time, despite constantly getting let down by CCP.

But I guess noobs do owe them a beer for the free SP.

They got up on a cold ass night because it's triple-time and a half on the out-of-hours roster, which they probably signed up to because they need the extra cash.

The guy fixed the coffee machine because his boss told him to, because without it they will make no money, failing to provide the service they claim they do, which will make them all look silly + broke.

The person who should thank him for fixing the coffee machine is his boss. Even then the boss likely won't (and generally doesn't) because again - they're paying them to do it.

So I started this in the server status thing. As I already stated there, I will immediately take it down if a CCP member requests that I do so.

So anyways, despite all the crap that we give CCP, over the past almost 12 years, CCP has done an amazing job supporting and growing this community. At times we may be angry, at times we may be dc'd, some times we even blow up as a result of them. But despite that, they've in general done an amazing job, keeping content fresh, updating the game, and making it what it is today.

Let's show them our appreciation.

Edit* I'm an idiot, didn't post the link.
https://fundly.com/buy-ccp-a-beer/




In the event that CCP doesn't shoot this down, I'll need someone in CCP to contact me on how to get them their monies, even if that entails completely handing over the Fundly account to them.


Fixed link. ISD Ezwal.


Got payday coming up, i'll join you in this and yea contact ccp to see how they want to handle it.

But only the one 'cause you did volunteer for this, afterall. Blink

I don't get the hostility. If OP wants to tip CCP then they can. It really doesn't effect us in anyway. It's their own mony anyways why do we care how they spend it...

People are getting so angry! "I already pay CCP enough" ok sure. Don't tip them then? No one is forcing you to

When i go into a restaurant, i do not shout as I leave, LEFT YOU AN EXTRA TIP, I AM KIND!

CCP do a great job, never said otherwise, I just don't see them as the holy saviors that people seem to think they are, I congratulate them every month with my 2 accounts.
