Chriba`s ship getting nerfed is just another step in a long line of banality.
not related to this latest mess but my three accounts run out next month and then that will be me finished with this place and i cant say i`m unhappy to leave either... no whine, no tirade, just no accounts...... three years has been more than enough.
p.s. whatever stuff i have gets to rot in my accounts till they get deleted.

To Chribba: Sorry for your loss, bud. I'm sure the legend of the Veldnaught will live on for years, though, as long as someone is still playing who saw it.
To the rest: A grip. Get one?
The "I'm quitting and I know an army of un-named people who are quitting" posts are wearing pretty thin.
Here's a little clue for you: Every MMO in the history of MMOs that have player forums have the same phenom of 28 page emo threads every time something in the game changes. Every. Single. One.
There is damn near no change that CCP could make to this game that wouldn't cause someone and all of their friends to quit. Which makes the Eve community no different from the EQ community, or the WoW community, or any other MMO community in that regard.
This particular change is pointless. It is also impactless. Sucks for Chribba, and I feel for him. If his "claim to fame" is the reason he plays, he'll probably quit. Doesn't impact me, or anyone else posting here, at all.
To CCP:
I hope you had a good-faith reason for making this move. Maybe you know of an upcomming change that would give caps in high-sec an unfair advantage that we don't know about. If not, I wish you'd have used the time you spent on this to do something that actually effects someone's game play other than Chribba's.
Beyond that, it's your game. You pay the bills, and take the risks. I hope you make changes to it based on your good-faith perception of what would be good for the game. I also hope you give some weight to people actually leaving, and absolutely no weight at all to those who threaten to.

The forums are not an accurate representation of the subscriber base, just the noisy ones.
It's the best feedback that CCP are ever going to have even if it isn't an accurate representation of the subscriber base because they have NOTHING else in place to gain feedback (the CSM does not count here because LOL its on the forums).
Really, you think they have nothing else in place to gain feedback? Are you working for CCP or something or are you here to spread rumours?
Quote: You may think this is ego; it is not, it is simply having a lot of time (and money) invested in a game that many people feel is being destroyed by poor development choices and a seeming change of direction towards a game that none of us subscribed to.
I don't see how not being able to have a dreadnought in high sec is going to ruin an EVE experience. Dreads aren't supposed to be in high sec, deal with it. They don't siege stuff in high sec, anything they "could" be used for can be done better with something else. It's petty sentimentality, ego, greed.

Quote: If chribba, who's invested years of non-playtime into the game community for little to no gain himself can be shat upon from such a great height, then you can see what CCP think of the average player handing over their $15 a month per account.
Chribba isn't a more important player than anyone else in the community. He pays for his accounts, you pay for yours. I'm sure he tells his friends about Eve, just like I'm sure you do yours. We're all just players, regardless of what outside projects we engage in. Now, he's won some trophies and has a legion of followers in this community for all his work and investment in Eve related projects. Do you really think his needs outweight those of the "average" player, or even the vision for Eve that the developers have? If anyone seriously thinks they do, you need to give your head a serious shake. If I'm wrong, and this is just a case of CCP ****ing shit up, I'll eat my hat, but this thread is so serious and hysterical that I'd swear it was a mass troll.
It is a troll right? Right? I'm ok with finding out it's a troll after making a serious reply here. Just tell me. Cuz this is pretty silly, in the grand scheme of things.

I didn't read past the second page, but I find the timing of this peculiar...
Could this have something to do with that hammerfail idiot that tried to gank the Veldnaught?
See his thread here: I will pod Chribba (failed, Will come back with greater forces)
Is this CCP's response to, say...a petition whining about not failing to gank a Chribba? ------------------------------------------

That attitude is why this game has degenerated into ego stroking and ****waving. I've never seen a bigger collection of overfed egos and self-entitled people than this game's playerbase. _________________________________________________________

What the hell CCP? Why?
When I started playing, I got a convo from a GM asking me how I liked the game and wishing me all the best. EVE is not what it once was. Slowly but surely we're drowning in the sea of all the other MMO's and CCP doesn't have the strength nor will to stand by something they've said in the past. What a shame.

Chribba, you get my vote of appreciation.
Dunno who's steering the CCP ship atm, but its been going way off course for a while it seems. This is just totally indicative of that fact :(

It's even worse now that people are acting as if CCP owes them something other than a month of playtime for their 15 bucks a month. If the game is so bad then stop paying them! Go play a game that is more in line with what you really want to play and leave the rest of us to a game that we actually enjoy! _________________________________________________________

So, back to our old point, why should CCP pay any attention to the forums?

You fail to realize that CCP is a money making venture, and as such, like every other entity of this kind, is vulnerable to an organized consumer movement. There is no problem bending commercial entities, you just have to hit where it hurts the most: their wallet.
For example, if EVE's vets would decide to suspend their subs for a month as protest, we are not talking about a trivial sum since they all run multiple accounts.
Besides, the average stay of a character in EvE is 6 months IIRC. So it's the vets which compose the skeleton of the dedicated player base CCP has been able to count on since their prime time. From a management perspective, only a fool would take the risk to alienate the very people which has allowed CCP to get where they are now.
But maybe you'll understand all that the day it's not your parents who are paying the sub

Hey, I agree with you. If they all decide to suspend their subs for a month....wait, pigs may fly! As much of a deliciously dangerous threat that is, I tell you sir, so long as 0.0. is worth holding, a sudden bank-breaking mass suspending of accounts will never happen! People don't want their space to go into the hands of people who can get over these ridiculous protests, and come back to find they're spaceless, moonless...etc.

wait, people that don't know about ccp or EVE some how knows about a guy that works on pet projects for a game no one knows about run by a company no one has heard of. tell me how that makes ANY sense at all!
People that don't know someone but some how fully trust him is a fool. Imagine in real life going around saying that even though you know nothing about him.
CHirba does not represent the community. Last I checked im part of the community and no one represents me but me. so please pull your head out of your butt and realize your being over dramatic.
seriously if this "landmine" goes off, can you all please contract me your stuffz? I expect more veldspar then i could ever imagine using.
again, you guys are emoraging over someone that did pet projects. Pet projects should never buy you sway with the company running a game. Its funny that in this game people love someone that people believe has say in what ccp does. Yet in another game such a person was loathed by the vast majority.
this landmine of yours is never going to go off. its to stupid to know when to actually go off so its clearly a dud.
Stupid Troll is stupid.
whiney **** sucker is whiney.
seriously this whole thread is pathetic. If you guys really think someone else that plays this game is so important that your going to leave the game because that 1 person was effected by a change, then you guys gotta unsub!! RIGHT now, no not when your sub conviently runs out, I mean RIGHT NOW!!
