Very very sad news, and a tremendous loss for the Eve community.

How on earth could someone possibly get burned out on trying to do anything for the EVE community, it is such a mystery to me I cannot understand it, anyone got any ideas?

Losing Jester's Trek is like losing your favorite expat bar: It will only be missed by the right people, and those who won't miss it don't matter.


PS: Sad news indeed as he's letting Ripard's subscription lapse, too. What?

Q: Should we be worried? A: Nope. (...) Worry a lot if Fozzie, Masterplan, Rise, Veritas, Bettik, Ytterbium, Scarpia, Arrow, or even Greyscale leaves. Worry a little if Punkturis, karkur, SoniClover, Affinity, Goliath, or Xhagen leaves.

Thank God. The guy's an idiot.

CCP Philosophy ==>>

  1. If it works, break it. If it’s broken, leave it and break something else.

  2. Ignore all Forum comments that raise issues and concerns about our "features", and bring said "features" in anyway.

Haters gonna hate & it didn't take long for the usual suspects to comment on this post.

I agree with OP, this is a body blow to community provided content & Jester's Trek will be sorely missed - especially by those that are capable of independent thought.

I realize that a lot of you out there really want to keep New Eden as your own private little club, no noobs allowed, go back to WoW, et cetera ad nauseam. But some of you must feel differently. If you want the game to succeed, how do you not worry about it? Are we so enamored of griefing people that we subconsciously want EVE to flame out and die so we can sit down with some popcorn and watch it happen? In my darkest moments, I feel like this is exactly it. There are lots of current and former EVE players that seem positively gleeful at the prospect of watching CCP implode spectacularly.

But he's letting Ripard's subscription lapse, as he will focus on other mains to do the 10% that still is fun for him. I don't want to blow this out of proportion, but every bittervet should have seen enough buddies take that road as to ignore what it means.
