A short term solution might be to issue announcements on twitter then have an auto feed here (like the new eden link bot) to pull through crossplatform posts/comments from devs.



No. The main, short time, long term, most important and only solution is to use their own damn forums. I'm sure there's people who are cut off from this forum when at work or other situations but there's probably a good reason for that. In the mean time they're cutting of their actual customers and players by actively choosing to avoid using the official forums.

I have multiple installs so I can have multiple client setups for each account I run. I am hoping I can still do something similar with this.

Examples

One install has it so all the accounts are configured identically and I use it for when I box eve in windowed mode.

Another install I have setup for when I run a low number of full screen clients.

The last install is a test install where I test window setups and custom window configurations per character for specific uses.

If there's a way to manage the window/chat/etc setup for each character and have a choice when logging in that would be fantastic.

Dev's probably got tired of having their posts over censored and moderated by trigger happy non-understanding ISD's.

Make sure it includes import/export of settings so I can easily move/sync stuff between computers and cloud

On reddit I could downvote this.

What you have is multiple sets of settings per account.

So you can configure all the settings of setting 1 for all accounts to be the same, for windowed mode.

Then set setting 2 for the settings you'd use with the full screen clients.

Then setting 3 can be your test.



you can pick the set of settings per account, just before you launch them.

Woo! CSM XI!

Don't worry yourselves, when we're ready to provide solid information it will be provided through the official channels you're accustomed too.

So the next time an exploit is discovered, we'll just discuss it on Reddit until we're ready to clue CCP in with a bug report, but CCP you can rest assured that we'll file a solid bug report AS SOON AS WE'RE READY don't you worry.

Look, thank you for posting here but please let me articulate what we, your paying customers, are asking for:


Important (or indeed any game information should)

- be posted on these forums as a primary best practice
- not just be posted on Reddit or Twitter or whatever social networking thing you think is 'cool'.



We don't pay to look at Reddit etc to get our game information. We pay for you, the company, to post it here, not to send us on a merry goose chase to external sites.

Thank you

No, it's ok, this forum is shite anyway. Slowest piece of crap, especially since the beginning of the year, eats posts, lacks features. They're right, might as well move to Reddit.

Nonetheless, this is still the official EVE Online forum - their own mouthpiece - and yet they persist in using Reddit. It speaks volumes that they'd use that than improve their own systems.

Realistically though. You could shut down the official forums altogether and use Reddit instead. Compared to Reddit, eve-o is a step above its own corporation section. You know, the one no one can seem to make work for their own corp or alliance. Most players would probably enjoy the Reddit chaos with its lack of topic categories.
