First off I'd like to congratulate CCP on taking back all the ill-gotten (and good-gotten) gains obtained by the so-called *snip*; a good precedent has been set, one that says that when you feel the Sandbox has stopped being a sandbox because someone is playing it too well, you can ask CCP to roll back your losses and the other players' gains. I invested in minerals a few months ago (morphite, mainly), and am now sitting on a large paper loss. I feel that other market participants' abilities to do basic math and read patch notes has put them at an unfair advantage; I would like my purchases rolled back, as well as the sales of those who sold to me.


Bad word, fixed it for you

The Goon ownership of, and profit from, Tech is a well known abuse of game mechanics. I, for one, can not wait until the alliance is dissolved for clear violations of the 'don't be good at Eve' rule CCP is enforcing.

Goonswarm makes too much money; this isn't fair to dumb players. Take all their stuff!

CCP mostly sucks at their job, but Veritas is a pretty cool dude.

You need to prove the goons made you do it.

In chaos theory, there's a concept known as sensitive dependence upon initial conditions. Most people know it as the Butterfly Effect.

In EVE, we call it the sandbox.



HAHAHAHA just kidding not actually a sandbox

It's only a Sandbox when we do things that CCP can brag to the media about. Once we get out of line, well.

I'm not quite sure of this but I guess the guy making decisions and buying is responsible for he's own choices.

@OP

How many petitions did you send to CCP to give back to the guys you brought stuff, the profits you've done? -Ho, none I guess.
You made a choice, all you have to do now is man up and get over it. Some times you win sometimes you loose.

That's what I thought too! Luckily I was proven wrong by these latest events.

Witch ones and where can I read that? - that would create an unprecedented situation where everyone could come along and ask reimbursements because he failed to understand game mechanics or market operations.

I'm probably wrong but I'm willing to think this will not happen.

CCP can multiply any Goon balance by 100, I wouldn't care.

What worries me more is another example of bad game design by CCP. It's right up there with a heat producing Incarna, half assed replacement for hangar views, the new inventory, and a general disregard for details as background continuity, physics and strict naming policies (not necessarily in that order).

CCP's game. CCP's decision. Personally I think the players involved should not be punished but CCP's game. CCP's decision

I think your idea of what a sandbox is and what others believe a Sandbox is are completely different.
