If we don't show up and yell at CCP that they're doing something wrong, then how will they ever know they've done wrong? We need to let them know, or let the game slowly begin to wither and die.

Alright, lets pretend your rearing a child.
Do you yell at them for every little trivial mistake they make? No, you quietly correct them and only yell at them for the big mistakes, because those lessons really matter and need to stick. If you yell at them for every little thing, each day, every day they become accustomed to your yelling. It becomes background noise, they ignore it.

We just had massive fcking forum shtstorms regarding gold magnates, massive favoritism, and RMT on the eve of the release of Rubicon. Also some EULA stuff too. That stuff was kinda important.

This stuff? Peanuts. So some fool that got scammed (or otherwise convinced to give over his API to erotica) got some SP. So what? Oh noes, he'll have a better refine rate or t2 minning crystals or whatever.

Small time, barely affecting one player, in a game with problems that affect thousands. This triviality isn't worth it.


you're right, that stuff was important.
it's a shame CCP decided to not give a ****, provide 0 worthwhile response, and have ignored the issue for the last 3 weeks.

maybe if we point out they are systematically and repeatedly ******* up, they might realise we have legitimate concerns.

The gold magnates were stopped. The RMT was closed down ....slowly (oh, and ccp, fck you for giving somer 10 days to cash out their RMT op). The massive favoritism happened, but we made a huge stink and it may be a while before it happens again.

The forums do have some small influence. It's not worth expending it on some worthless triviality just so Erotica has higher visibility before his run for CSM.

You're right, let's ignore the precedent being set down here. Players of EVE! It is of no importance that you are no longer responsible for your own stupidity! Go about your business as usual.

RMT was never an issue we cared about. except CCP moving goalposts because "RMT" got popular. that was more favouritism again. allowing one group of players to do something until they all do it.

favouritism, the issue that has yet to be addressed, which is pretty much the same issue here. taking one subset of players and treating them differently to the rest of the playerbase.

CCP are simply inconsistent in it's enforcement of the rules.

Yay, this account hasn't had its signature banned. or its account, if you're reading this.

Your absolutely right.

CCP does not follow precedents, it just ignores it own EULA and rewards some players on a whim while banning others for exactly the same EULA breaches.

Makes a player driven sandbox mean so much more.Lol

If you play then lottery and don't have winning combination, you don't lose millions of dollars.

They'll follow whatever precedent gives them justification to appeal to the demographic that brings in the most money. They seem to be swinging towards stealing WoW's players at this point.

Uh, another "revelation"! ...part agitation and part shameless self promotion... funny as always. Still, all you self styled celebrities get a little tiresome.

...face it Ero, it's CCPs game, and they do whatever they want with it/in it and around it. You're opinion is just as "important" to them as ours. Even the CSM can only make suggestions, and CCP is well within their rights to pay them no heed.

It's only a game, and if it's no longer worth the money for you (that's a general YOU), biomass and move on.

You gain SP every second of every day. There is no chance of not getting it, or getting a lot of it.
A lottery is entirely random chance.

While I don't necessarily agree with the SP return, especially if it was in unallocated SP that can be put into something different (don't know, was it?); I honestly can't remember CCP enforcing account sharing between spouses and actual, living together family; all the way back to 2007 when I started playing.

In fact both accounts could be paid by the parents over the same billing information, and the EULA contained an explicit exception for that last time I read it - a few years back I admit.

It's the same thing, you can't claim to lose something you never had in the first place.

Tell me something, do you think an organization that is "inconsistent in it's enforcement of the rules" will somehow change its inconsistency based off of one trivially insignificant case? Do you honestly think that such an inconsistent organization uses such trivial events as precedents for later action?

CCP doesn't follow precedent, never has. Don't believe me? They flip-flop on whether a dozen decloak cans on a gate is either allowed or a bannable repeat offense on an almost weekly basis. CCP does not follow precedent on anything. If they did, they would never have given out rare blueprints again after T20.
