Isn't the absolutely worst thing that can happen to conspiracy theorists if their claims are validated? Yes, we get at least 24 business days vacation each year (and then a bunch of public holidays on top). Many left for a 4 week vacation today and many more for 3-4 week vacations next Friday. We'll be back in early August. (Customer Support and Virtual World Administration will be staffed throughout.)

I think europeans are now the main 1st world country and are now so in charge of the starving africans. I think that is a conspiracy theory to believe in.

It will be a "We're good to go; I have my iPhone and laptop and there will be either 3G or WiFi not only at the destination but on the entire route; and you are driving".

They are the (first-level) system administrators of Tranquility and the second-level system administrators of Serenity.

Oh, I've already poured myself another glass...

The staff of CCP is truly invested in making EVE better. A part of that commitment is to release fixes as soon as possible; release often, release early. A fix gathering dust in our source control system is of no benefit. Hence we are aiming for more frequent but smaller patches.



Then why hasn't the patch for the rollback of this 5h1T UI been rolled out and we get our functionality back if this is what your spouting [The staff of CCP is truly invested in making EVE better] because you epic failed on replacing our functional UI with a piece crap which nobody wants

That's a whole lot of talking for other people that you aren't qualified to do.

You asked me once, what was in Room 101. I told you that you knew the answer already. Everyone knows it. The thing that is in Room 101 is the worst thing in the world.

And to think here in the US we are thrilled to get 1wk of vacation, I want your vacation polices! too bad I do not know programming LOL. well not that any game companies have New Jersey offices.

EVE is like swimming on a beach in shark infested waters,  There is however a catch...  The EVE Beach you also have to wonder which fellow swimmer will try and eat you before the sharks.

Well, it's not programming or having an NJ office; you need to move to Europe. Big smile

Your release system makes sense if you aren't breaking the games with lag and resource usage, or smashing the UI on the regular.

I don't see why you guys deserve a pat on the back for patches that address bugs you allowed inspite of testing.

The entire notion of Q&A at CCP seems to be one big joke on subscribers.

Tears will be shed and pants will need to be changed all round.

30 meg this time which is around 15 minutes.
Why do I have to pay 14 bucks a month to be an unwilling guinea pig?
Untill this programme is running correctly all account fees should be suspended and we should be credited with time for our patience/impatience.
Yes it's a rant, but where else am I supposed to lodge a valid complaint?
A pettition in the round file?
