Just wanted to say thanks to the Goons, TEST, and their many friends and allys for a kick ass event and weekend.
I immediately resubbed for it when the idea first started circulating on the forums and I'm happy to say I was not disappointed. There was little doubt of it going sour anyway .
EVE benefits from emergent gameplay like this and we all should applaud and encourage it, even if some of our precious loots happen to explode on their own . Events like this definitely sets the game apart from many others out there because of it.
Seriously, do not let this be a one-time thing. Cheers and fly safe!
PS. I'm not an alt or anything, just wanted to post my appreciation. |

I must admit that it worked as intended...
My kiddo who plays other MMOs even came to me and was talking about the event. I had to go into the whole story about Mittens and the banning and the misinformation between the event and his return.
However, This event has sent waves through the MMO community in a way that CCP has never achieved (to my knowledge - Excluding BoB).
Good job for that.
Too bad that there is not a way to bring high sec excitement to EVE more often that does not include CONCORD interference and cost a bunch of ISK in wardecs. Industrialists seem to be the brunt of the punishment from other players to gain publicity that stretches beyond the bounds of the game. Will there be some imagination infused into the next event that does not include blowing up industrial ships? Hulkageddon tells me no... However, I have hope for the future. |

No, that's my explanation of why I'm not going to play your game. Burn Jita was a major disappointment. We expected more from Goons, but they let us down. It wasn't even worth the time instant-undock I created in preparation for the event. If you're really going to try arguing about it, then I'm sorry for you. |

1) Didn't lose my freighter, despite 3 trips I made during the "event". 2) When you try to troll, you could at least be original.

We burned literally trillions of isk worth of ships and trade goods, and more or less shut down a market hub for a weekend. What more did you want?
Yes, things got through. But given the lag, that was always a given. Yes, we ignored empty ships. Did you think we would waste Tornados and Thrashers on empty hulls?
I'm just questioning what you think we could have done to make your Burn Jita a more festive experience. Or is this merely more pointless bleating of a Carebear who is a bit too mad?
Or, to put it more succinctly:

See, here's Jacob Staffuer's mistake.
He talks about how he had to make instant undocks and prepare to survive this event, and then warp his Freighter through a gauntlet of enemy players calling out for his blood, dancing through a second camp of the enemy on both sides of the gate out of Jita, never quite losing the feeling that he's going to die and lose billions of ISK ...
... like it's a bad thing.

I'm not mad. Like I said, I didn't lose anything on my three trips to Jita during this "event". I even said I was disappointed with the way things turned out. I expected a lot more.
Sheesh you people are terrible trolls. |

Yup, he mad.
We did as best we could through ~4 years of CCP listening to bleating carebears demanding Highsec be made safer and safer in violation of CCP's own corporate vision: "Harden the **** Up". Deal with it, nerd. |

Trolls want some attention. Mmkay.
I'm more than willing to give you all the attention you need.
Just as soon as you post something original, give me at least a 6/10.
Get to it. |

You say we need attention, but you're literally posting in every open thread about Burn Jita trying to convince someone, anyone to believe you when you say it wasn't a success.
I'm sorry we didn't get around to killing your ship, with TiDi and the Lag outside of the undock, well, frankly we missed a few. A terrible tragedy, I'm sure.
But then again, you might just be too spacepoor to have made a good target. Just what were you carrying, anyway? |
