I don't think the guy needs to lose his job and make his whole family suffer, but I do think they should change his name to CCP NodeDropper and make him come to B-D in an officer fit Nightmare every day for a week.

You are not a very bright person I take it...

This was before you guys decided to try on big girl panties and decided that meant becoming goon pets. It's ok if you don't know what I'm talking about.

keep calm men and lets try keep things civil.

It's better to be a goon "pet" than say a soco "ally", hbc "member".


Even if we are pets, which we aren't because we are not obligated to nor do we owe anything to the CFC, I would not mind at all. You guys have been nothing but bro's to us since we have allied.

You don't quite get what I was getting at. When test were our friends, they were our pets too.

When we were blue with pl they were also our pets.

I for one would like to thank CCP for looking out for our wellbeing. Players had been sitting at their computers all tensed up for 5 hours or more. That's just not healthy. You can get blood clots in your legs and stroke out. CCP cares enough about their customers to force us all to take a much needed break.

Thanks CCP.



It's actually a new feature. Play for more than 3 hours and you get a black screen with red letters saying, "Go to the gym, nerd!"

I would like to point out that Michael Bolton of Test fame was recently recruited by CCP. Could he be manipulating the servers via having friends in the right places? It would benefit CCP to take a serious look at their internal affairs and recruitment from the eve community. They will always have a bias in the matter. Not to mention that CCP screegs aka DARIUS Johnson being fired over some trivial matter? CCP are on a fuckgoons roll right now.


Confirming that the best way to deal with a total disaster in a GAME is to accuse someone real of being responsible by name on a public forum, without any proof whatsoever. You really have your priorities straight.

So he can help TEST keep their killboards green?

I'll take any attempt to improve the situation over sitting on their hands and just hoping nobody screws up again. Stories of these kinds of battles are a part of selling Eve to people, and that's not going to happen when the story ends with "and then some dev accidentally took the server offline and everyone crashed".

I'm sure the next server outage will be done at an opportune time to help CFC with some timers.

The pendulum swings to the left, the pendulum swings to the right.


On a more serious note, why the hell is node balancing even done manually? I mean seriously, you guys dont have a few propellerheads you can lock away for a few days to write some automatic balancing monitors which do this stuff on the fly??

#1 is fairly likely. I give it, hmm 3:1 odds in favor of it happening.

Node remapping by CCP saved entire trapped TEST capfleet in the midst of a battle larger than Asakai. Not amused. #tweetfleet #eveonline

^ This guy is gonna have a hard time adjusting to losing as frequently as he is going to in this engagement.

Yep, it'll help us save our VFK station timer.

At one point PL bailed on test so they starting bleeding carriers

Then they jumped back in with N3 and Tribe and started bleeding rokhs

Then someone batt phoned CCP and they pressed the ultimate I win button :-)

CCP, please TEST your engineers that they know the difference between a Z and Q. We may need them to push the Z instead of the Q at some other point.

I know, right? Soon I'll be able to afford buy a Drake and run some security missions.

Do you guys use Drakes?

No, wait I got it.

Not only keep killboards green, but some TEST people who happen to know about this "officer spawn" in advance will get some officer mods to bring to Jita to sell.
