Because this game is filled with more Warcraftians than old timers anymore.
These forums are absolutely nothing like they were just a few short years ago, and while change is a way of life in EVE, that does not make it good by default. The change to the forums has been incalculably bad, even if CCP did everything flawlessly, these forums are useless anymore, filled with a vast sea of useless memes and irrational discussion, and me-me-me mentality.
Bet you could calculate the average player age ingame these days and find a huge swath of subscriptions that are under two years old for a game that is nearing its ten year anniversary.

Originally by: Cipher Jones I apologize for not citing my source
You're not citing a source because you haven't got one. People are complaining that game has become unplayable because, for them, it has become unplayable. Maybe if they change the way they play they wouldn't have this problem? The point I was making is that some of us don't want to be made to play the way you like to play it, because the way you like to play it happens to be unplayable to us.

I addressed that. Asking CCP to release something that has more advanced code will require more advanced hardware. This is true of all software developers.
Another point you missed. It's not just about backwards compatibility. Some of us, who are perhaps a little more mature and have saved up to buy a modern PC, would like to see a little forwards compatibility for a change. SLI? DX11? HT? My other games make use of the resources I provide, yet EVE still ignores 10GB of free RAM and insists on swapping in and out of it's "cache" instead.
Pretty soon some of us are going to have to start underclocking our CPUs and disconnecting our graphics hardware before we can play EVE. Then it will be unplayable, except for those who will pedantically insist that "it will run if you're not too lazy to go out and buy an old second-hand PC that supports it".
There's so much hyperbole in your posts that you could make a theme park ride of it and sell tickets,

Cite your source.
Wouldn't bother trying, some people can never admit to being wrong or even that they can BE wrong or they will come into an argument on semantics using syntax to make a point or vice versa, then cry foul when you call them out on it. Bet you dollars to cents that you can never get a word edgewise out of them no matter what you say.
No one here I think is trying to argue completely dry and empirical facts, so using the lack thereof of said facts as a blunt object to batter people with intellectually is frivolous at best, but that won't stop them from trying, will it?

Originally by: Bloutok I could not careless about what or why CCP may or may not do things A,B,C ways..... I know for sure they could have used that time for something else.
Where were you the past few years when the forums were frequently smoldering over the fact that no one believed CCP would ever release avatars and that they were an evil vile company for not delivering on their promises?
