Quite a ****storm when I check eveO forums this morning. First I would like to say it is somewhat a step forward to come out to the public, but far from what is needed.
A couple points, after spending hours scrolling through the posts:
CCP, you still do not directly tackle the main problem. That being if Aurum will be used in the future for non vanity items. I am not going to be dumb here, and I already know this will be implemented. This has been decided up high in CCP, and there are alot of ego's at stake at CCP who refuse to back down on this idea.
This is why you, CCP Pann, or any other CCP representative has not answered this issue directly. This because the answer you are supposed to give us will enrage the player base to a point even higher then the last week. You can't give us the answer we want to hear at this point, because your management still keeps a stiff lip on this business model.
Now the sad thing for you, and for CCP is that depending on the answer of that question you will be on the verge of losing your veteran playerbase here. Your player base has had enough crap forced down their throats in the last 24 months, and this single issue here will be the making or breaking point of your veteran customer base.
CCP Pann, as you already have noticed, this is not the generic emo raging about some changes or half assed/broken features. We can handle that. This issue, and the combination of PR failescades of the last weeks, is something that your playerbase is taking very seriously, and are willing to act accordingly to it. So I hope your bosses + bizdev's start taking this serious as well, before the mass exodus goes at full speed.
Now concerning the handling of this epic nuclear fallout, I do not hold this personally against you, or CCP Soundwave, or any other dev who has been posting on this forums. You are all entitled to your opinions, and you are just doing your jobs. You are not the ones who need to take the fall for it, your management & bosses need to take responsibility. However, at this point it will be too late to fix this by simple PR or some promises + free SP package. Your management has ignored the player base, it has ignored the player base's spokespersons (CSM), and have brought EVE on the verge of going down the drain. This cannot be fixed, and God help you with dealing with it. The only thing that could turn this around is a radical & progressive change in direction from your company. You once were great, daring, and bold. Now you simply became EA 2.0 who wants to milk the cow.
So please, I implore you, take this seriously. Get your bosses to wake up & to smell the ashes.

What did she get perma-banned for?
Read her twitter. http://twitter.com/#!/HelicityBoson
She was speaking out against the MT, and helped making the MT article available. CCP banned her straight after, and now is confirmed to be permabanned. You can find the whole story linked on her twitter.

Ah well.
We have been screwed over 3 times by CCP in the last 24h.
First, promise for communication by CCP Pann, who gave up after 15 replies.
Second, failed devblog that missed the whole point.
Third, leaked Hilmar letter who openly screws us over even more.
GG CCP, you just lost your community. -

Originally by: Kharontos Can someone explain the gravity of the Hilmar e-mail to me? To me it doesn't even come close to admitting non-vanity items for cash.
His TL;DR is that CCP will not be bothered about our feedback, and that he will keep CCP on thesame path as intended.
CCP has not denounced non vanity items, and Hilmar just said they will go through as planned, thus implementing that non vanity items will coming to Eve. -

My take is that any damage control that comes now, is too little, too late. -
