And 15k bots.

I wrote some true EVE stories! And no, they're not of the generic "my 0.0 alliance had lots of 0.0 fleets and took a lot of 0.0 space" sort. Check them out here:

When you are going to make bold claims and false numbers, you should link the information that CCP gave you on paid accounts. Big smile Any two bit nerd like yourslef can make bold claims. Now since CCP loves you and shares all of their financial information, you should be kind enough to share it with everyone.


By the way, EVE has been dead since beta. * and yes I am a nerd also* So do not take offense, just back up your claims.

I'm a nerd, you can check my stats!! Skilling Int/Mem at 45 sp per minute is how I mack!     I'm like a lapdog, all bark no bite.

As long as people "whine" it means they care, because they have an opinion. As soon as everybody thinks your work is perfect and there's nobody complaining or disagreeing with what you do you need to start getting worried. VERY worried...

Wrongs questions. Real question is why do MMO gamers complain non-stop?

Clearly someone hasn't noticed how during this time of year eve does tend to quieten down then once the colder months set in and people are getting back to work, kids back at school etc the amount of players online increases.

The same pattern happens every year.

Because your mum just couldn't say no.

It's funny how people always blame low numbers on being busy getting back to work/school in the fall, winter vacation and being preoccupied with the holidays in the winter, spring break and then later final exams in the spring, and going away for the summer vacation in the summer. No matter what time of the year it is, the apologists always find a reason for why less people are logging in. Yet somehow, they forget entirely that MMOs are traditionally non-cyclical goods.

~18K pilots online currently at 5am my time, but this goes back 24 hours. Interesting how many ships have been killed in Highsec compared to other secs.

Don't worry with the Drake/Tengu/Cane nerf numbers should soar. I know I'm telling how awesome it is.


Even if you're not excited about that, I mean who couldn't be excited about The Minitard.

Do not assume anything above this line was typed by me. Nerf the Truth, it's inconvenient.

Guys, Eve is dying and you all mock this guy. His numbers are all wrong anyway, its actually only 2k online a day during the week. Anyone that says otherwise clearly hasn't seen the player count when I log on just after dt.

People only complain about what they care about.

Still waiting on some facts, I have been searching cannot find where CCP gives this information for suscriber numbers, can the op please provide the link. I really do not think it is to much to ask.

Posting in a thread where some guy complains about people who are complaining all the time. Good times GD, good times.

On the topic of bitter vets:

Also yes, the whiny vets totally ruin this game. Staying in the game for almost 10 years and still enjoying and caring about the game surely will be the reason for EvE to die.

If vets are complaining about something it is people who make silly statements about them. I can assure you the few people who are still here from the old days are not the ones who come to the forums and whine about every little change ccp comes up with.

A vet is not someone from 2007 or 2006.... a vet is one of the guys who started back in 2003.. someone who has been there the whole time while EvE has been growing and tagged along in the process. The old players who did not start playing a fluffy version of eve where you get everything handed to you right from the start. Are you really surprised that those old Vets are getting bitter, when they hear those silly outcries of people whining that they do not mine enough ore, make enough ISK, got suicided, get their ships nerfed or whatever reason they can come up with?

With this I do not want to say the game was better in those days because it was a lot harder to be able to afford something bigger than a Rifter, something that was better was the player base.

And if this developement of whiny little cunts flooding in from other games keeps going that is something that will kill eve in its core. No matter how many subscribers there are, no matter how many people log in at some point. If EvE turns into Space Hello Kitty Online, then EvE really is dead.

psst, 2003 here. I just keep creating new pilots...new accounts...new care bear rage...

Games change, player bases change too. Getting butthurt about it is all rather pointless I think.
