Not at all, sounds like a waste of dev resources.

Ah Leader, how fare you today?

Question, how would you feel about the removal of barges/exhumers from hi-sec as a carrot/stick incentive for Industrials to advance into low and null?

LOL ... How about removing BS's from Hisec as a carrot/stick to get PvP'ers to move to low and null?

And while we're at it, why not remove a bunch of other functionality from the game as a carrot/stick method to get less people to join?

What is your standpoint on the fact that bug hunters keep closing the bugs that report that EVEs sound engine doesn't uninitialize when closing EVE, which causes reproducible sound card hangs with every single Asus sound card?

(This isn't specifically about this bug, it just serves as an example; it's about the fact that 'the bug hunter issue' STILL exists, after years of volunteer bug hunters, they still close numerous perfectly valid bugs - repeatedly.)


Obligatory 'eve has sound' joke goes here. From what I understand the bug hunters are volunteers, but I haven't looked into this as your post is the first I've heard of it. It might also be a known issue - ie, they know it's broken so they close it, but it never gets fixed by CCP, since bug hunters can't fix bugs, only find them and dump them on an issue list.

Lateass reply, but here's another example of "bug hunters are broken": https://forums.eveonline.com/default.aspx?g=posts&m=609699

2 months. I mean, common.

Edit: Also, here's a semi-troll, semi-serious suggestion in relation to that: Get CCP to look into ITIL for some of their internal processes. Not necessarily to implement it, because god knows implementing ITIL is like implementing SAP, it mostly ends in catastrophic failure unless done extremely right, but to steal what useful process ideas it has.

I don't think "carrot and stick" means what you think it means.

Will you ask CCP to double the current size of 0.0 space. I believe it will allow players to get involved in null sec shenanigans with the feeling they actually have a chance to effect and drive game content. I also believe that the current blocs would not be able to hold all that space, lead to the the breaking up of some power blocs. Hopefully the combination of fresh blood and dispersion of power blocs might attract new players to the game who feel like there is a new frontier to conquer so to speak.

Nope. Most of nullsec as it stands is empty and uninhabited because the risk/reward balance is so ****, most folks park in hisec doing incursions or running L4s. Doubling the size of nullsec will just dilute a thin population more.

The issue you want to solve is risk/reward balance so there's a reason to live in null, make money, and fight over it.

it's not really a 'regular' part of what you do.. but I'd like to know if you have any ideas or plans to help out industrialists and their eternal war with the UI to make more ships to blow up, as well as ways to make Industry more feasible in null-sec.

As it stands, the horrible UI is one of the main problems that industrialists face every day, more deadly than suicide gankers, more annoying than griefers, the clickfest and counter-productive UI for making items in Eve is always there. Improving this UI would make it a whoole lot easier for manufacturers to do their thing and less need to spend time clicking and wrestling with it, thus giving them more time to do other things, like sample their own product for various ends.

The second thing I'd like to bring up is null-sec industry. As it stands, manufacturing things out in null-sec afaik is a horrendous nightmare. Geting good logistics is a challenge ( and a welcome one ), but setting up a profitable manufacturing system out there is difficult at best, mainly due to the lack of easily available manufacturing slots, lab slots etc.

Major alliances are ( rightly so ), wary of giving people POS rights, because of the damage that a single person can do. Thus for an average alliance member, making things in a POS is a nono, meanwhile, because there's so few manufacturing slots available in stations compared to the number of average joes, using these is also not very feasible if you want to do large scale manufacturing.

The only other option for such a person would be to set up a shell corp and set up their own POS, using this POS however means being in said corp, which precludes being with your bro's in the alliance, or using 'dedicated' industry alts. Neither is a good prospect.

I like the idea of being able to checkbox pirate vs faction mission types. I'm not a big mission guy, but I love checkboxes.




I think we can all relate to checkboxes. Make it so! Smile

Timers, now checkboxes.

We need checkbox poll education here as well.

Indeed, an impressive amount of votes, and I hope your 2nd term will be as successful as the first one. (though with less shitstorms to clean up than the last one )

It's called damage control.

I think he needs a term in a mental asylum himself if he thinks his behavior is ok.

Thank you for your sincere and heartfelt apology. I feel you have gone a log way in wiping out the dark stain your presentation spread over the otherwise corny but wholesome dck and poop jokes of Fanfest.
