Originally by: Khamal Jolstien The words "never will be plans for non-vanity items" seem to be missing. Fix this.
They also didn't say the sky is red, or that the Earth is flat, so obviously this must be true as well.
It is simply impossible to come up with a statement that some idiot can't rip an imaginary hole in.
Actually, "never will be plans" covers it just nicely. Back to your bridge, troll.

Originally by: Slaghead I appreciate the CSM's coming in here to supplement the blog messages. Is there any indication that CCP will keep at least you guys informed on upcoming changes to their 'plans'? I'd really hate to go through this again in another year when they decide to launch their non-vanity MT plan.
IMHO one of the takeaways of this crisis and of the summit is that CCP has to run a lot more stuff by the CSM. Pay2Win is very hard to nail down in a legalistic way, but everyone "knows it when they see it". Alas, when you get into the grey areas, reasonable people can come up with very different opinions.
This means that getting an outside view from the community (via the CSM) is just smart business.
Originally by: Heavenly Blues How much is CCP paying you? Or is that part of the NDA?
We get one account free for a year, plane tickets, hotel, and food&drinks. Everything else, including all travel incidentals, comes out of our own pockets.
Originally by: Moria Kethar Trebor - I am not concerned with the pay to win aspect of direct CCP --item-- sales, as that is a oversimplification. The issue is that it would be bypassing the player-generated economy, which is the backbone of Eve - right now, if you want a ship, guns, ammo, ect, someone in Eve had to work for it. THAT is the concern for me when CCP refuses to say No, never.
During one of the dinners, a CCP dev made exactly this point -- that if it was game-affecting and disconnected from the player economy, then P2W alarm bells should go off.
Which specific CCP dev said this? And why wasn't there a commitment to no future "non-vanity" MTs?
