I have a bigger piece of cheese for you if you want to leave that ship. These guys aren't working at CCP for the satisfaction of forum space nerds. They are there for the paycheck. If someone offers them a bigger one, they leave. No conspiracy, just looking out for number one. I wish good luck to Jon in whatever the future brings for him. Mr Epeen
Well, that, or the environment is no longer suitable, which in turn leads to self-preservation as you already pointed out.
No conspiracy implied or offered.
The accumulated filth of all their sex and murder will foam up about their waists and all the ho's and politicians will look up and shout 'Save us!' and I'll look down, and whisper 'Hodor'. |

He was posted to the Atlanta office. Odd that they didn't re-absorb him back into EVE .. or perhaps he had a better offer. |

That's how I remember it, too. I think they said last year, they'll have something ready this coming fanfest. Oh, well. |

That's how I remember it, too. I think they said last year, they'll have something ready this coming fanfest. Oh, well. Looked it up, here's the transcript of the Crossing Zebras interview from September 2013: https://forums.eveonline.com/default.aspx?g=posts&m=3580551
Quote:[...] Valkyrie kicked off and just looking at the opportunity we have with that in the short term. It's definitely something I've thrown my all into to get the project up and running. But the intention is GÇô like I said GÇô I'm gonna be handing over so that I can actually go and focus on mobile for CCP and all the various projects and products that we've got planned under that. [...] It's going to be happening this year. By the time I get to the end of this year I should be completely transitioned over and looking at what mobile means for CCP and how we should start building things. |

Replace Disney with Blizzard and you have Eve where when your ship blows up it "respawns" at the ship graveyard! |

To carve a successful niche for yourself in EVE you need to be able to out sell, out produce, out fight,-á out run, or out wit your competitors. If you can do none of the above, your only option is to complain on the forums that somehow you are at a disadvantage using the exact same tool set-áas the rest of the player base. |

Good luck. The job market is brutal right now.
I can't help but notice that CCP has stopped trimming fat and started on muscle.
Unless your thread is limited to how 'awesum!' Eve Online is, ISD will lock the thread.-á You will find it is particularly common if CCP might have to make a public response to the thread subject, as opposed to bury it in the GM que for the forseeable future and then prohibit telling anyone what the GM said, if it's ever answered at all. |

CCP is dying not just eve now :) You know that expression ''Don't put all your eggs in one basket.''? Well CCP took all the eggs out of the EVE basket and threw them against a wall, then they set fire to the basket. The only important thing is that all the eggs are not in one basket so mission accomplished.
This particular brand of cynicism has always amused me. I think CCP is restructuring due to the well known ambitious projects that all flopped. All of them. DUST and WOD and monoclegate.
An analysis of their operating practices probably identified a lot of fat in the system including presumably overlapping roles and skittish leadership. The accumulated stress on the system leads to internal pressure on non-vital staff who eventually leave on their own merits or are exciseed.
CCP Atlanta was excised. The question here is did this guy get cut out too?
A more focussed direction for the game should be pursued. A more lean and clean company that's hungry for success like it's earlier incarnation, tempered by embarassing failures in design and PR. A much preferred situation instead of this gawdy and arrogant CCP from 2010 that allowed itself to become complacent and self obsessed. LP store weapon cost rebalance |

Doesn't matter why he left... corporate down-sizing or career choice... CCP needs to focus.
Ironically, he himself seemed quite focused.
