So I guess CCP knows how to act like a normal corporation when they're telling people to **** off, but not when they're actually running their business. Okay, whatever, CCP. |

I envision the CSM as a volunteer body that can translate the communities' concerns into something reasonably coherent and representative, and then let CCP do with that what they wish. Transforming rolling pages of largely jabbering idiocy into something that is actually useable is about the best they can do.
I personally as an actual human being, as opposed to my usual forum troll persona, would like to thank other actual human beings for spending some of their actual human time to competently and effectively represent the communities' concerns to CCP, which is what I voted for them to do.
Thanks.
Yeah, they were pretty good sports about being totally blown off and deliberately bypassed when they became inconvenient. Definitely real pros. Good job, CSM!

I honestly dont care about any of this, Ive never participated in Somerblink [not much of a lottery guy] but I wish them all the best. I dont mind CCP adding in old unique spacepixels into their game again, I dont mind never having a chance to get them regardless. I dont mind what the CSM knew or didnt know. And I dont mind wether or not CCP was wrong in doing what they did. It simply does not affect me one bit.
*Snip* Please refrain from personal attacks. ISD Ezwal There was not a single personal attack in my original post, there was nothing even close to an attack period in my original post. O.o; I merely stated that I enjoyed all the tears this whole situation has created.
Yeah but that post was pretty terrible anyway. I mean, I don't think it broke the rules either and shouldn't have been ISD'd, but it was bad enough that I'm willing to look the other way. |

If it was anything else, this would've come up during the Somer Blink 1Q celebration, which was publicized widely and showed on the front page that CCP had given prizes to Somer.
It didn't, so stop trying to make this something it isn't. In other words, STFU, wind your collective necks in , stop crying.
As I said in a post on TMC, this is really about the "change" to the ToS meaning that a certain selection of people are no longer allowed to scam in the way they previously thought they were.
Eve is a game of ingenuity. Try using your brains and coming up with something clever, special or unique to make isk.
Oh and just a point regarding trust:
Most of the whining is from a certain select group, let's call them "Scamming little b's" who are trying to cause trouble for CCP because they aren't allowed to scam in the way they used to.
Many of those are pointing to a well known website named after it's founder and shouting that it should also be given *things* to give out.
If you want CCP to trust you enough to believe you will give out prizes they donate, then don't build your bed from lies, cheating, exploiting and more lies.
Edit: Just for the record, I think reintroducing the Gold Magnate & G-Vex was a massive mistake and I'm pleased that CCP has changed the prizes. THAT is the only problem that this whole thing. The rest is just crying.
I guess they don't teach about socratic irony at the Imperial Academy, so when you're considering an alumni fundraising letter you might want to keep in mind just how ridiculous your failure to grasp it makes the rest of your blustering post look. |

Obviously I needed to spell it out for you: From your post, it is obvious that you know nothing about running a business, especially a business that depends on subscriptions, and this is something I know a bit about, having actually done it myself, and you are making yourself look pretty ridiculous to anyone who actually knows anything about the matter at hand. I hope that helps guide your posting in the future, but if not, I am sure I will continue to find it as amusing as I do now. |

I'm terribly sorry (I am an apologist, after all.) I didn't realize I was talking to such a subscription business expert. Does CCP know about you? They should really be consulting you on their business practices. I mean, you've "acutally done it myself" so you're sure to know more about it than a company that's been running a successful subscription game for ten years.
Well since you're here maybe you could clear some things up with your vast expertise? For instance...
If you have on one hand hundreds of players having a little extra fun participating in a give-away contest and on the other hand a dozen or so buttmad forum trolls who will complain no matter what you do ... which of those groups would you cater to?
I don't consult for free, buddy. |

Little Dragon Khamez wrote: Exactly, thats why I take the point that if somer blink wants to give away neat prizes they should be bought or manufactured in game thus maintaining the integrity of the sandbox. It saddens me that the self styled defenders of the sandbox are QQ because they didn't get anything. I point this out and I am accused of hate crimes against the goons. In actuality I have no opinion on the goons either good or bad, they are background noise in new eden, part of the story, that's all.
It saddens me that you do not understand what Socratic irony is, and that you actually think Goonswarm is mad about not getting free stuff. I really don't know what to say about that, except that I genuinely feel for you because most parts of common cultural discourse must be very hard for you to understand.
