Like the Subject says, whomever at CCP made the decision to give and keep giving paying customers gifts that are worth jack nor have any significant meaning needs to be kicked square in the there marbles. All that makes players do it waste 2secs of play time to trash CCP junk...that 2secs could be spent elsewhere :)

You just became my new best friend. I love threads like this.

Children are starving in africa, being shot dead in the middle east, and living on the streets in poverty around the world, and you're seriously going to sit here and complain that your free stuff isn't good enough?

Biomass. You are a blight on society who only cares about what he can get, never what he can give. The fact is, CCP is never going to give us anything 'useful' for free. All of that stuff is player-made and filtered through a player-driven economy. When you magic useful stuff into that dynamic, you throw it off balance. Doesn't matter if it's christmas, it's not happening. Ever. So quit your whining, you ungrateful hamster-turd.

"Oh poor me, I had to waste 2 seconds of my life trashing stuff I got for free, I'm now going to waste another 90 seconds writing a whiny forum post about it." Grow up.

What the **** is wrong with people this year? We're getting some good stuff, some random stuff, some jokes... same as the past few years, right? Does this overwhelming tide of entitlement happen every year? Have I just blocked it out in the past? Should I just stop opening GD?

Yeah, and I was always against them being introduced the way they were, but I'll use em. Geckos are also limited edition and tightly controlled as far as I'm aware. Same as Gnosis and Sunesis, although they were better implemented by virtue of being made of only 1 trit. You've got my agreement on that, though, and it was a dumb move on CCP's part, because it puts drone manufacturers out when everyone starts using them but nobody is actually building them.

Pretty much yes. It's mostly from people who are young enough to still think Santa exists though.

Dear Bob, I want containers full of salt, smelly fishes to feed the trolls and a neon sign on top of my ship like the "fly save"-ones on Citadels. Let us set the text like the ship name, mine would say "you mad bro?" most of the time P

Might as well get used to the gifts being useless trash seeing as anyone can create unlimited amounts of alpha clones now if there is anything half decent and push the price down.

please don't be a d!ck!

when you receive a gift all you have to do is say, "thank you', that's it, nothing more, nothing less.

Yeah there are people like this every year.

I just wish CCP would stop forcing them to redeem the Xmas gifts at gunpoint. If people who don't like souvenir items weren't forced to accept them, then they'd be happy and would have no reason to complain.

Ball is in your court, CCP!

They could just not redeem them. I mean...they do disappear.

Holy **** you are an entitled little ****. some people enjoy the lore items, sucks that you didn't, but ccp is under zero obligation to give you something that you particularly would want. or even to give you anything at all.

and so what, you spend 2 seconds deleting them... is your ship spinning REALLY that important that loosing out on a couple full rotations is such a travesty?

I'm guessing troll, since the OP probably knew what the response would be.
