Eve server graph for yesterday didn't break 43 thousand online, Never seen that for a Sunday before.

Keep sweeping those last few remnants of miners running around the place, see if you can get a few more thousand to close their accounts so next weekend server won't break 30 thousand.

Thank you CCP for encouraging ganking, we're on a roll with all these accounts closing. Good for business huh CCP??
Don't stop nowPirate

Oh and thank you for all those 'INVITE A BUDDY" ads you been posting, seems more than a coincidence at this time, you getting a bit worried CCP?? I thought greifing is all good with you Question
Only thing is, if I'd invite my friends, they'd get griefed as theyre trying to progress in the game, so since I don't wanna lose my friends, I won't invite them P


Um, it was Memorial's Day in the United States. Everyone was having a BBQ and getting drunk.

Can we expand the definition of "Carebear" to people who incessantly complain about EVE? If not, can we call them like, I don't know, "Monchichi" or "My Pretty Pony", or "Fraggles"? Some other ridiculous 80's toy...

We really need to let much more time pass before we can see how the servers are doing. Far too many short term variables in the mix. I am sure the gankers have caused a drop but how much exactly, give it a few months.

Hang on a minute.

I know 4 folks in my Local area have unsubscribed what sounds like at least 3 toons each. One was a 4 year player. This is what I gather just from Local Chat as I don't really talk to those players. And someone I've known since my first year (now their 5th year) unsubscribed 3 accounts and even has a personal email from one of the Devs asking why (apparently they do look at the cancellation reasons on the cancellation page). And I myself am taking my 4 accounts and 6 toons out of here.

And none of them (or myself) are quitting for any reason even remotely related to Hulkageddon.

They (and myself) are quitting over the nonsensical crap going on. Mainly they see themselves as not being able to progress any further into Null andother more advanced activities ever. One coalition is in control of everything worth having, everyone is blue, and not really any action left. Out of boredon, they have invaded high sec, not for real game, but lulz, while holding onto Null like a really large lollipop, out of arms reach.

Why bother. All that's left is endless repetition of the old. And it's signed and sealed to stay this way. And CCP will do whatever it takes, especially for one certain coalition, to keep them bringing in 'the news'.

CCP's solution for me was to join them. Do NOT even begin to tell me they don't want to utterly change their playerbase. Basically, when they were talking to me as I was unsubscribing, I didn't like what I heard at all. Thank god Civ 5 has a new expansion June 12.


This is also one of my major gripes with the game. I never got to see what null was like 'back in the day'. But I assume it wasn't the boring blob fest it is now.

If Diablo 3 - a bad game might I add has caused todays state of OMGWTFBBQ I wonder what the next large FPS shooter will do. Or even Guildwars 2... i know Guildwars doesnt have much interwebs space ships, but its freeeeeeeeeeeee. BTW anyone know when GW2 is released?


*edit*

Next massive FPS shooter... Just thought, what if DUST takes the last few people who sign onto eve.... Eve becomes a wasteland.... The remainders of people playing leave because its so quiet. Dust flops..... eves dead?

Id best dust of that suit might be a funeral to go to

The Damage that hulkaggedon is doing will only show after a few weeks. when the subscribtion of the miners and high sec players runs out.
What i do not understand is that every graph and statistic show that the mayority of players are at high sec.
So why is CCP not doing anything ? 0.0 is to small and after all the fail addons like Dominion there are no mechanics in the game to support a real development of null sec. so why force people out of empire ?

No. They show that the majority of characters are in highsec. Where the players are is a rather different question and the way the numbers look, it can easily be interpreted as a minority of them being highsec-players.

They are. They have this 5-year plan for the development of nullsec mechanics to make it a bit more dynamic and open.

Necroing when bored is a bad idea. I suggest knitting.
