I've gotta say I'm f---ing impressed at the backlash of the PAYING customers to the attitudes and behavior of CCP's powers-that-be. It's about time someone in one virtual universe or another finally stood up to this F2P 'pay to win' madness.
People that play subscription based MMO's pay their subscriptions faithfully for one reason, they work hard to become their better selves in a world where the day to day real life is so mundane and uninspiring. People want to be CHALLENGED to become their better selves and if the people behind the scenes take that away in one crushing blow for the sake of greed and the next dollar sign then it's honestly the duty of the paying customers to do exactly what is being done here and now in Eve-O.
People that jump on board with those F2P **** pots of the MMO world are largely the filth and waste of the degenerate society that have thrown away all hope for self-worth and personal fulfillment, They lack the personal fortitude to commit themselves to the difficulty of a hard-earned boss kill or some rare reward be it a title, achievement or whichever else.
I personally admit that I was entirely bored with the 3D station environment Incarna features in a matter of 10-20 minutes of trying to move through the 'Captain's Quarters' with any manner of swiftness and promptly disabled it only to be further deprived by the lack of even the previous 'spinning ship' in the hangar and forced to stare at a single poorly represented hatch in the hallway picture.
Wake up CCP and do what you know is the right thing by pulling the plug on any future plans for this s**t-storm of a virtual money market and get back to doing what we are paying you for, meaningful content and continued high quality of service so that we can keep on fighting the evils of the endless space rocks and player-driven wars in the shadows of lawless space.

Almost ten years is too soon? _____ This is one of the moments where we look at what CCP does and less of what they say. Innovation takes time to set in and the predictable reaction is always to resist change. |

CCP planned on this happening, but we hit them 9 months too soon. It's evident in the complete lack of damage control and only largely observing the player base at this point.
I can tell you for certain that no " expert " could ever tell you correctly how to deal with this community. In a game where people will lay siege and pillage vast swaths of glorified rooms for months to years CCP made the mistake of thinking we wouldn't burn it all down the minute we understood CCP wanted to **** EVE and deceive us.

Change the title *******. If there's is one thing I don't want to see on this forum is piece of s-hit internet trash dragging the memory of 9/11 through the mud with your posts. And go to hell you lazy ass moderators, you should be editing that ****. "The man behind the mask is a Maverik Letting off buck-ten shots for the hat trick."

I have heard of several trade centres. The fact that you are stuck in the past enough to cry at a synonymous term is not my problem, not is it the OP's. YOU are the people bringing up real life events, not the OP.

It's the same with racism. I can't say nig.ger because I'm not black but the truth is anyone who gets upset about stuff like that, THEY are the real sickos.
So the haters in this thread are the true sickos. You are at the heart of tastelessness even though you accuse others of it.

WHILE WE ARE AT IT CAN CCP STOP REFERRING TO WAR DECLARATIONS SINCE SOME OF THESE SANDY FRAGINAS BOYFRIENDS DIED IN A WAR AND CALLING IT A WAR IS INSESETIVE TO THE PEOPLE THAT DIED IN REAL WARS. ALSO COURIER CONTRACTS SHOULD NOT BE CALLED THAT SINCE BOMBS CAN AND HAVE BEEN SENT IN THE MAIL IN REAL LIFE AND PEOPLE DIED BECAUSE OF IT. ~~~

You're asking for respect in the EVE forum? Tell me, how much respect have you seen people show the past 4-5 days? Very little.
It's true that it's very disrespectful to speak ill of the dead (unless they really were hated/disliked) but no one is talking about them here (well, other than you that is, and the guy who posted the Hulk Hogan thing).
EDIT: And that love picture thingie.

Honestly, when I read the title I didn't even think "World Trade Center." Not even a bit. When then next post said "too soon" I didn't even catch it. It simple seemed to refer to everything going to **** in Jita, nothing more. I think folks are being a bit overly sensitive. I realize some people are still going to be hurting over this and that is fine. But don't get all butt hurt if much of the rest of the nation, not to mention the world isn't as sensitive to reminders about this.

Also you people getting butthurt need to calm down. Us Americans have killed thousands of innocent men, women and children in Iraq and Afghanistan, yet in America it's perfectly OK to make jokes at these people's expense. But when someone makes a 9/11 reference (if that was the OP's intention) you all suddenly go off about 'respect for the dead' and 'too soon.'
TL;DR **** your double standards.

Would you stop with the sensitivity training bull**** please? I agree that the thread title was not the smartest idea, trade hub would have been better. But this undoubtly leads to a spiral of accusations and insults. "Euro Trash" is maybe not a smart move on insulting an entire demographic that did nothing against you, just to get to a single individual.
Coming up with ****s i just cant understand, you lost people in that war as well, you know?

Originally by: Geoseph Honestly, when I read the title I didn't even think "World Trade Center." Not even a bit. When then next post said "too soon" I didn't even catch it. It simple seemed to refer to everything going to **** in Jita, nothing more. I think folks are being a bit overly sensitive. I realize some people are still going to be hurting over this and that is fine. But don't get all butt hurt if much of the rest of the nation, not to mention the world isn't as sensitive to reminders about this.
This. It took me ages to figure out what was being complained about. Then I realised it was some American being hypocritical again and if you don't understand why it's hypocritical then I'd like to add the adjective "idiotic", too. I don't disrespect your lost loved ones nor the families who were left behind, but I do disrespect hypocrites. There is far too much revealing truth in this thread. Even if OP was making a joke I'd be very surprised if you've never ever made a joke about any of the wars America is been involved in that others might be sensitive to (anyone who says they have never done so is lying, by the way.)

Why the **** is everyone derailing this thread? IT WAS NEARLY 2000 PEOPLE WHO DIED, THE WAR THAT WAS CAUSED BY YOU INSENSITIVE ****S WAS As MUCH WORSE DISASTER FOR US DEATH WISE. You complain about a country fed up with our capitalist ways and religion who wanted a little payback for the previous incidents with them, so due to 9/11 you guys who complain about this **** support the need for a war that caused much more deaths to your "relatives" then 9/11 ever did.
And then you go and blame the muslims for it, FOR ONE, That was what their religion told them to do, thats what the christian bible also says to do to non believers, enwhich they dont follow, but thats not important.
Seriously, If you hadn't embraced "omg 3000 people died in the trade center" there wouldn't be an on going war that is hopeless fighting.
Let's count the death toll on all soldier deaths since 9/11/01 relating to the incident.
Now, stop using "omg 9/11" as a blanket to protect yourself's from this amazing speech and actually listen and respond in a mature manner.
I have had it with you DUMB*** 12 yrs old - 18 yrs old ****s who use simple excuses and make it much worse in a political manner to contain for smaller things such as this game.
Hearing "god forbid this or that 9/11 this or that" to cover up your shame and put downs by someone on a thread is not supporting your side on a simple EVE argument, YET supporting a larger politcal argument worldwide. Now you're the insensitive ones.
I unsubbed not primarly due to CCP mostly because of the dozens of annoying pieces of **** in the community
NOW let's get back to ranting about CCP and EVE MT instead of 9/11 shall we?

Wowww i didnt think ameri***s can be that sensible about that subject. It tooks me awhile to actually understand some people are seriously mad because they think the title refers to 9.11.
Come on people, dont get offended by some comon phrasing on a MMO forum. That's pathetic.
To answer OP : completly agree. If I play non-F2P MMO is because i think it's normal to pay a subscription (nothing is free you know), and because i think, once the subscription is paid, you should have access to the ALL game.
If you can pay to access some extra part of the game, it ruins the all gameplay imho.

Actually the only time i've seen this kind of uproar and protest going on, Blizzard had announced that people's real name would be displayed on their forum for everyone to read. The intention was to make the forum a more friendly place because people couldn't hide behind annonimity anymore.
People where outraged ofcourse and lo and behold there are no real names on their forums now...
SO PROTEST DOES WORK!

Technocat, that is going too far. No one's death should be mocked, because there is always someone that cared about them. Yes, I am an American, and very proud of that fact. I served for 21 years in the Army, fought in Desert Shield/Storm, OEF and OIF. But, unfortunately, my fellow Americans sometimes forget the the right to freedom of speech extends to even those that disagree with them. And to my fellow Americans complaining about the title of this post, Don't get wound around the axle about it. It was a poor choice of words to us only. Let us get back to the topic at hand, CCP and MT.

This is all very fascinating but why the **** are you talking about it in a thread about internet spaceship trade hubs. Try to stay on topic. If I gave a **** about your stupid real life I would go look for it in OOPE. ~~~

@op
Totally agree I'm completely fed up of games with microtransactions. Eve was supposed to be different and now it seems like they are diverting resources from eve to use them on introducing things like this. Get back to improving and maintaining the game we are actually paying for. Stop adding totally pointless features (captains quarters) until they arent pointless and are finished. Stop spending time adding ludicrously overpriced vanity items, that have ZERO impact on the game.

I agree with you Mi Sing and everyone else who understands the point of my post/title.
To clarify for all the ignorant raging kiddies, I am a flag-waving red-blooded "yank" as you eloquently called it, having also served a term in the military as well. I joined the military in direct response to this WTC "bombing". ten years have passed its over move on already, I have. Lets just chew on this for what it was meant to be, a post about what CCP is doing and how its being dealt with.
Eve Trade Centers (read: Jita, Amarr and all else besides.)

They never had to, say what you want about blizzard to they don't really hide anything from the player base, you can read about all changes months in advance. The only thing in wow that would be compared to the current situation in eve, was the realID which didn't get released do to forum rage.
Blizzard may not have a lot direct communication with the player base, but they did'nt build the most played mmo of all time but not listening to what the players want and giving them exactly that.

Im sorry but whats all the fuss about? 9/11 was not a bombing of the world trade centre! it was airplanes hitting it! they were not full of C4 or semtex! it was not a bombing!
Someone earlier in this post mentioned the 1990 bombing of the world trade centre by AQ operatives! WRONG it was radical Islamic fundamentalists that bombed the trade centre!
Americans need to grow up.
Otherwise you are telling the whole world to ban reference to anything in history that killed people!
Didnt an american director make a film about 9/11? therefore someone made a profit!

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Godwin's law (also known as Godwin's Rule of **** Analogies or Godwin's Law of **** Analogies)[1][2] is a humorous observation made by Mike Godwin in 1990[2] which has become an Internet adage. It states: "As an online discussion grows longer, the probability of a comparison involving ****s or ****** approaches 1 (100%)."[3][2] In other words, Godwin put forth the hyperbolic observation that, given enough time, in any online discussionùregardless of topic or scopeùsomeone inevitably criticizes some point made in the discussion by comparing it to beliefs held by ****** and the ****s.
Godwin's law is often cited in online discussions as a deterrent against the use of arguments in the widespread Reductio ad ******um form.[citation needed] The rule does not make any statement about whether any particular reference or comparison to Adolf ****** or the ****s might be appropriate, but only asserts that the likelihood of such a reference or comparison arising increases as the discussion progresses. It is precisely because such a comparison or reference may sometimes be appropriate, Godwin has argued[4] that overuse of **** and ****** comparisons should be avoided, because it robs the valid comparisons of their impact.
Although in one of its early forms Godwin's law referred specifically to Usenet newsgroup discussions,[5] the law is now often applied to any threaded online discussion, such as forums, chat rooms and blog comment threads, and has been invoked for the inappropriate use of **** analogies in articles or speeches.[

Ok, Americans in this thread need to calm down. References will be made. Don't go all Glen Beck on folks because of it. That being said, the anti-American stuff in this thread is just as ridiculous. So, all of you, SHADDUP, and get back to the topic at hand, which, in case you've forgotten in your rage over folks posting insensitive stuff on a forum (like that's something that never happens), is CCP's epic stupidity.
And yes, I'm an American, a very proud one who was DENIED service in the military due to a health problem. And I'll gladly debate America's merits with anyone from any country.

The title is not great, It would have been better if it was 'Eve trade hub bombings'.
As far as I know nobody shot the Jita trade hub, they shot at a monument.
However, PC Gamer reported that the protestors were shooting the Jita trade hub.
