Political science is not a science.
Now that I've dropped that bomb, I will go onto what I was going to say. They made a terrible fo-par referencing the features and ideas section when not only is there very few WiS threads in there, but the ones that are opened are closed as duplicates very quickly. I might point you to the first page of General Discussion instead, where there are currently two threads. One of which is one of the largest non-stickied threadnaughts to ever grace the Eve-O forums.
I'm not using that to assert that 'WiS' is the most requested feature blah blah blah, but it is talked about a lot. I could give more examples of why WiS is a popular topic, but that will do for the time being. I am not really trying to prove a point, just being conversational. |

Political science is not a science. No contest there. Real sciences do not need to flaunt how science-y they are. You see economic or social "sciences" postulate that garbage, a phycisist will say physics, geologist will say geology, chemist will say chemistry ... no need to add "science" since - newsflash - it already is and people instantly recognise it as such. Furthermore, pol.sci. barely even uses the scientific method. Weeee~, we can predict ****, turn out to be wrong, and still be correct, just not the way you expected! Statistics? Only trust those you've made up yourself!

I could give more examples of why WiS is a popular topic, but that will do for the time being. Well, I'm not contesting that it's a requested feature, and one could say that it's actually not a feature that is requested but rather a fix (improvement/overhaul etc), but the poster who postulated that WiS is the most requested not only did so contrary to my own experience, but also gave evidence contrary to the posters' own position when pressed for it. Which is a bad way to show the truth of any claim.

We have this thing going where one of us might say something, and most often by accident make a minor mistake, which the two others jumps on. Rinse and repeat. Conversation ad Correction? |

It might all be a lie though (citation needed) Also WIS would only have any value if there was any player interaction. - mugging fellow capsuleers - stabbing fellow capsuleers - harvesting fellow capsuleers' intestines and putting them on the black market - casinos Back when WiS was just an idea called "ambulation," I was set to become my corp's bartender. Well, a few of us had dubs on that job, but I'd claimed it first. Still waiting.... |

Don't have to actually be fired to be shown the door. And two, you may 'lol wis', but it's the most commonly requested feature for Eve after 'Fix X broken feature'.
Hehe, the door. See what you did there. Give a man a match and you warm him for a day.

Don't have to actually be fired to be shown the door. And two, you may 'lol wis', but it's the most commonly requested feature for Eve after 'Fix X broken feature'. That's because most people are out playing the game and creating their own content instead of asking for CCP to create content for them. The WiS crowd is a special exemption to this. You realise way back in 2003 people where sitting at gates trying to kill me, 2004, 2005 ad nauseam. It's 2013 and people are still sitting at gates trying to kill me.
You may call that 'creating content' but I call that "boring as", "old" and "identical to every other fps / PvP mmo".
It's not "emergent player content" ffs stop fooling yourself :). The developers create content and always have. |

A few people posting feverishly in one thread is not indicative of widespread interest. It's not even indicative of it being talked about a lot. It's indicative of a few people having an obsession with a single issue. |

Yo I heard CCP TomB was here! LIKE ALL HAIL BEASTNERFER TACHYON GOD OF EVE!!! *worships*
You've been highly missed!
if you've still got it, TomB, you should kick in CCP Rise's door and show him how the old gods work. Maybe see if he can salvage battleships into being useful again. Or maybe balance 100MN afterburners, Tech 3, and frigates (as in their OP'ness).
Also nerf plex, monocles, and Nex Store. That stuff has tainted all of our beloved WiS dreams.
Also, Jovians. We miss them. We miss how they put us all in our place. Many of us also believe the Jove wouldn't tolerate half of the stuff CONCORD has been doing of recent. |
