I'm seeing literally thousands of players using the IGB each day. Please keep it in, albeit not updated.
(I'm df on eve-dev, but dont respond to the highlight as you folks talk too much about dwarf fortress.) |

I am not sure what i am more angry about, losing access to WH mapping tools or the deposit function to fund my www.evebet.com addiction.
Jokes aside this is pretty bad and not just for WH users, a lot of other areas of the game use the IGB so they better have an alternative in place when they hit the delete button or **** will go back 5 years. *Snip* Please refrain from discussing forum moderation. ISD Ezwal. |

The IGB is needed. The reasons have been listed here.
Look, CCP, if you have a game that at times is so long-winded as Eve you NEED something else to do. I mean, moving 22 jumps in an Orca to get needed things to a wormhole, or station in LoSec is mostly a non-event. Yet the EULA requires us to still play the game. (So to the gankers, I agree.)
But anyway, who am I kidding.... Eve is dying anyway. ;) |

Oh wow, this is a pretty amazing thread. Mostly filled with a lot of misunderstanding so let me see if I can clear that up before we get to the Jita riots. Before continuing though, please be advised this post comes to you from a phone and is therefore likely to be filled with even more terribleness than my usual posts. I may try and proof read this though.
So, first and foremost the IGB is not being removed anytime soon and defiantly not without a lot of discussion with the CSM and more importantly you guys. When I say not anytime soon I mean there is no plan to remove it, there is not even a plan to look into how much effort it would be to it. Removing the IGB is as best I can tell years away from happening.
So that probably doesn't help this that much as all i have done is confirm we CCP want to remove the IGB and that it is years away from happening. That doesn't help the fact that many of you use the IGB and feel losing the IGB would hurt your gameplay.
So let me try something else. We don't want to remove the IGB until we have CREST up to the point of replacing it. The most common uses of the IGB are things like DOTLAN's radar or wormhole mapping software. Both those really just need your location information, which we can supply in the an even better way via CREST. Better CREST wouldn't require you to have the IGB open. Log into some website, give it permission to see your location, and even when you are not on that web site it know where you are. This means you get your whole corp to sign up and then only those looking at the mail need to open the browser. This is better in so many ways.
The other big thing the IGB offers is the ability to open links in the client. I don't think we have looked to deep into it, but we should be able to have you press a button on web site and then via CREST it tells the server which tells your client to open some window. Maybe a tad shower but again not only is the format and technology better for developers but the number of uses and possibilities is far greater than the IGB.
I could go on listing so many other things but the bottom line is this: CREST is a far newer technology and more importantly one we can maintain far easier than the IGB. We would like to remove the IGB but we will not do so until CREST, or even maybe something else, gets us feature equal to the IGB.
Really the only question and problem with moving from the IGB to CREST is the fact that you can browse the IGB from the client versus alt-tabbing. From our, or mine anyways, understanding most of you guys have multiple monitors and that's not an issue. There are also other applications that will overlay your current web browser with the game. Things like Overwolf I think it's called. The benefits from us doing things through CREST and relying on you guys to use an existing browser are immense. We get to focus on making cool things instead of trying to maintain a customized browser in the client. Not sure you guys realize just how much work there is in maintaining something as complex as a browser and how much of a security problem for everyone this is.
Anyways, nothing is happening anytime soon, when it does it will be because we, CCP and you the players and the CSM, have had a good long discussion about it, and only once something else is in place to replace it.
I hope that elevates your concerns for now. Let's get back to blowing up spaceships and building an awesome universe together and enjoying the sun... Which I might be the only one doing :P CCP FoxFour // Game Designer // @regnerba

This is pretty much what I told a friend today before your response. Well I'd guessed at a browser extension...but yeah however you'll get CREST to work is how you'll do it. But unless there's a component to the SSO thing you all are working on that will help me...then this just makes it more of a pain in the rear...multiple monitors or not.
If all I have to do is be logged into EVE then fine...if it involves more work than current then it is a bad idea/implementation.

Thank you for the response. I still would be bothered by the loss of the I even in the context of CREST. I play full screen and don't like tabbing out. I only have one monitor but even if I had two sometimes I travel and while lugging the laptop is no big deal lugging a monitor would be. Also sometimes like with wormhole sigs a ctrl - copy is used to move the data to an entry field within an application of the IGB. That is likely not going to be possible if working across different devices.

I have removed some rule breaking posts and those quoting them. As always I let some edge cases stay. Please people, keep it on topic and above all civil!
The Rules: 11. Discussion of forum moderation is prohibited.
The discussion of EVE Online forum moderation actions generally leads to flaming, trolling and baiting of our ISD CCL moderators. As such, this type of discussion is strictly prohibited under the forum rules. If you have questions regarding the actions of a moderator, please file a petition under the Community & Forums Category.
26. Off-topic posting is prohibited.
Off-topic posting is permitted within reason, as sometimes a single comment may color or lighten the tone of discussion. However, excessive posting of off-topic remarks in an attempt to derail a thread may result in the thread being locked, or a forum warning being issued.
30. Abuse of CCP employees and ISD volunteers is prohibited.
CCP operate a zero tolerance policy on abuse of CCP employees and ISD volunteers. This includes but is not limited to personal attacks, trolling, GÇ£outingGÇ¥ of CCP employee or ISD volunteer player identities, and the use of any former player identities when referring to the aforementioned parties. Our forums are designed to be a place where players and developers can exchange ideas in a polite and friendly manner for the betterment of EVE Online. Players who attack or abuse employees of CCP, or ISD volunteers, will be permanently banned from the EVE Online forums across all their accounts with no recourse, and may also be subject to action against their game accounts.
I have also moved this thread to General Discussion as this topic is not only relevant to Wormholes, but especially considering the explanation given by CCP FoxFour, to all EvE players in general. ISD Ezwal Captain Community Communication Liaisons (CCLs) Interstellar Services Department |
