A Thx To CCP & The Players



At present, EVE online is as visually spectacular as it has ever been. Crucible, was a welcomed surprise as is CCP's new direction. Let us not forget what led us here, and what restored a healthy balance back to this game. YOU, the player... sent a message that was heard loud and clear to the highest levels of CCP.



Although the CSM may claim responsibility (in part or in full) for this change, it is the voice of the players that precipitated CCP's return to a perspective that made this game one of a kind. Only here could protests be followed up by (mostly) unedited forum outrage. Only here could a collective voice of untold subscriptions shake the foundations of a multimillion dollar corporation in another country.





The Backstory

For years the CSM has been a fruitless band of individuals that spoke much and achieved very little. As the years past and the frustration of the players mounted, most of the parts of EVE that were being ignored... went ignored by the rest of us. But when the straw broke the camels back, the players finally reacted. And through the efforts of the players, CCP was forced to listen and in doing so, IMHO preserved the game that they created for many years to come.





A Final Word

I just wanted to through that out there, for the sake of all of those out there who helped make this change. Masked beneath "you hate goons" and "CSM emergency... blah blah" and all the rest of the propaganda that floods these forums, is a unique community that can inspire change that not only effects a digital universe, but the real universe as well. Without YOU none of this would have happened. It was a hard transition, but you may have saved EVE online in such a way that it can now proceed into the next decade. That transcends all in game politics, the CSM and anything else that people might come up with.



* Eternum bows to the player base, thx CCP and then flips the CSM the finger.

I'm certainly not a vet player or anything, but this patch/expansion/whatever does seem to actually improve the game a little. Not sure how CCP works, but I hope some people got shuffled and Crucible is just the beginning.

It would appear that you're having trouble with attention not being directed towards you for five minutes. Don't worry the mean man will stop thanking CCP and the players soon.

Thanks Eternum. Your tearful posts about Goonswarm are much appreciated.

You should post some more stuff in the CSM forum.

Agreed. They failed for 2(?) years to convince CCP that they were running down a hill into a wall of spikes. It was up to the players (after they hit the spices/Incarna happened) to drag them off the spikes and tell them that doing so is bad for your health.

CSM basically stood on the top of the hill whispering "maybe you shouldn't run that fast". Silly CSM, U so funny.

Yes because if it wasn't for his negative feelings about Goons (especially the two Goons on the CSM) he wouldn't have made this thread.

well he didn,t mention the goons in this thread .
and in my opinion ,he makes a good point
So maybe he has some hatred for the Goons,but that's not relevant in this post
