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.

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. |

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? |

Hey hey now, Shooting people in highsec would mean you'd loose a 4 million isk ship to Concord, and everyone knows the only reason to ever play EVE is to cause your wallet score to rise -- it's a measure of epeen length, after all. That's why Goons and other PVP players are obviously sociopaths, they do things that don't cause the wallet score to go up. |

I lost 11 ships total, killing 3 gift ships (that won't be coming back, ever) and about 5 loaded freighters. My Pilot Efficiency (ISK) is 96.53% even without those extra ships loaded into the killboard, with them it would be closer to 99.5% or so.
I feel smug as hell about this especially knowing that in a few hours I will quite literally be paid by Goonswarm to have participated (as I was making my own Thrashers for less than the reimbursement cost). That puts my efficiency at well above 100%.
Not only that I had a blast hanging out with everyone, got to be part (however small) of EVE history, and finally drove my Sec status from 5.0 to -0.9, the only reason I didn't get it down to -3 or so being that I ran out of time.
And I got to play Used Car Salesman a little bit -- I was making Thrashers for such a low amount of money that I helped stockpile the alliance contracts so others could get right back into the fight without having to build their own, and made ~6 million each ship. And they'll be reimbursed as well for their purchases.
In short: I had fun in EVE yesterday. Can you honestly say you did? |

What I find cute is the fact that you bite at every single troll and go on a limb to spread dissatisfaction for the event, by yourself I might add.
So I'll be serious for just a moment and ask you, why is it so important to you to run around yelling fail?
If the reason isn't that you lost something, have you fallen to a goon recry scam sometime before, or perhaps a bitter victim of some hulkageddon, or did they just not let you join? Entertain us :) |

Hint: 99% of EVE didn't care, and they didn't care so much that they can't even be arsed to post. For every post I make, there's 10,000 other people who can't even be bothered.
I'll be serious for a moment and ask: Why is it so important for you to stop me from pointing out that it was a fail? I mean, if it was such a solid success, surely the words of some NPC-corp alt wouldn't be so important that you'd make yourselves look like idiots with constant "umads"? and "what ship did you lose?"'s.

I mean, if it was such a solid success, surely the words of some NPC-corp alt wouldn't be so important that you'd make yourselves look like idiots with constant "umads"? and "what ship did you lose?"'s.
Narh man you got me all wrong. I don't even want to try to stop you, I simply asked why, and you failed to answer my simple question.
It's true 99% of eve didn't care, but who ever said that they should? Goons said they'd hit jita, and they hit it with enough force and caused enough damage that it's pretty much unparalleled. They never said they'd kill every single one person who showed their face there, nor that they would be on the lips of everyone in the entire game, ever.
They did what they promised, what more could ya want.
Also, I'm still curious, why do you care so much? |

Already read that exaggerated press release and commented about it in another thread. My reward is a thriving Eve? I didn't know Eve was stagnate.

I've got to ask. Why are you posting on two of your alts in the same thread? Seems rather odd to me. |

Actually dude, you're wrong. They claimed in multiple threads they were going to crash and burn Jita to the ground, break the market and gank all Empire citizens, ship class didn't matter.
It was nothing more than a little intermission, a mildly entertaining distraction from the normal humdrum of usual activities. The press got more hyped on it than the players. It definitely has been running this forum for the past month. |

You're welcome. It's why we play too. (Let's face it, parts of the game didn't age too well, besides never having been that polished in the first place. But the core rules of the sandbox - well that's alive and kicking. Just not used most of the time). |

LOL, other than goon alts, didn't seem to be much in the FIZZLE in Jita. Boring as ****, except if yer a spam fan. The OP & alts attempting to patch it up with this thread is even funnier. |

Publicity is a good thing.
Sandbox is a good thing.
Reminding everyone that grows complacent that there is a sandbox is a very, very good thing.
Player driven.
PLAYER DRIVEN.
Nice job, CFC. It affected me in a negative manner (Pretty broke and live near Jita for now) and I find that awesome. AWESOME. I was quite disappointed that there wasn't more of a resistance. Not because of some misplaced hatred, but because that would be EVEN MORE PLAYER DRIVEN STUFFS. AWESOME
Just like the ice interdiction was awesome, ya nonces.

EDIT:
The live events sponsored by CCP definitely benefits Eve players. However, a bunch of null sec players attacking defenseless industrialists on the undock of a station doesn't benefit Eve, at least for the Industrialists and from where I'm standing, I see no benefit for myself either.
The coverage from numerous gaming news sites with what has happened is better advertising than any video CCP can produce.
Not only that but it brings the right kind of player, the pvper who finds fun in losing ships. |
