i can't agree with you, this thread ran its coarse about 70 pages ago and it's not the first thread on this stupid subject.
EVE is dying threads are EVE is dying threads and they should be locked on sight.
EVE is dying since the day it began, just like every other game out there, but some people seem to think ah yes, this looks like a great time to push my i want this and that removed to suit the way i want to play the game and the way i want it played by everyone else, because look,, people are leaving the game and (insert random alt) thinks he has the answer to a question that's based on nonsense.
ya never see a numbers are up and more people are playing, why ???? thread. do ya

I'm just waiting for the current "So, Barge Info?" thread which has a lot of useful information and contributions to soon descend into a spiral of claims and counter-claims about whether ganking mining barges is too easy/hard, and carebears/gankers are ruining the game and so no wonder we are losing players, EVE is dying , your fault and people like you, blah blah |

I think the main reason they leave threads like this open is because it becoming a threadnought kinda proves that people are still active and they care about the game.
All the whine and complaining, and the people defending and countering and blah blah blah shows that the forum is active.
That and locking a thread saying, "AYE Dis game is dead yo" kinda looks bad in it's own right.
What would be worse if thread like these are left at page one. With nobody responding.
That or the ISD's are a sadistic bunch and they like to see people fight with each other like some sort of Forum Satan and we all died and this is our version of hell.
Both likely possibilities honestly

CCP do not need a thread like this to prove anything to them. they know people care about the game.
so let's say a thread starts up called "YE Dis game is dead yo" a simple response stating no, the servers are up and EVE is online and lock it.
what if threads like this are making new players think hang on, this game takes a long while to get anywhere (as it should be) and it's putting players off investing long term into our game?
no matter what changes have come over the last few years to make EVE a little more easy for the new guy (and we vets know it has) this new guy we speak of knows very little about EVE and is it possible they jump on the forums looking for advise and see threads like this and think hey,, wait a minute,, what if i invest my cash and time and this game is dying?
free play weekend coming, lots of new guys incoming this weekend. i hope most of them don't see this thread or threads like it.
let's see how many of these new people we can convince to stay ;)
all the worried players on this thread, now's your chance to help reverse this so callled drop in numbers.
CCP have responded now lets see does the community ;)
it's up to us and nobody else.

The ISD generally doesn't lock threads unless they break forum rules or go wildly out of control off course.
Additionally you may have noticed (if you pay any attention) that if you lock a thread like this without giving the OP time to say whatever he/she came to say - they tend to spam-open more threads in response....So instead of 1 threadnought you get 5-10 mini-threads clogging up the front-page of the forum section.
It may also depend if the specific ISD involved finds the thread interesting to read (for whatever reason) - who knows.
But in any case the answer is not to demand they insta-lock all threads like this |

well yea perhaps insta locking them isn't a good idea, but there is a point when a thread like this has run it's coarse and it doesn't take 80 pages for that to happen.
plus it's redundant. been raised many times before making it so.

There have been "EVE is dying" concerns since 2003. I've long though it was a display of anxiety ie people feel like they have 'invested' things (time , money, care) into something and this triggers anxiety because of the uncertainty involving when it may end.
I don't feel any such anxiety. I've spent so much time playing EVE if there was such a thing as an EVE PhD I'd have 2 of them, yet EVE ending would only hurt for a few seconds because EVE isn't my life, it's a just a hobby/game.
But I know something else as well, telling the 'worry warts' to stop worrying is futile. Worry is part of their make ups in the same way that not worrying is a part of mine. |

Not sure if you've played the game lately but it literally sucks balls.
PvE is a turd.
PvP is non-existent unless you consider 10 x svipul and 5 garmurs vs anything easy to kill pvp. Anything not easy to kill they simply fly away till they find something easy to kill.

Haven't people always tried to fly away? Didn't you found Privateers? iirc it was 10 x t1 dessies and 5 Falcons back then right? :P
You are right though PvE is a turd, needs more variety and randomness to it, so people have to think more on their feet.

CCP create balance though, in terms of hull size, speed and dps, damage application and tank.
The smallest ships such as the interceptor were very fast, could kite but did little damage or could brawl but needed to take a scram, they popped at the slightest damage.
The larger ships could do more dps, but were slower, to do max dps they needed to get scrammed.
There was a balance. No balance anymore so all I'm seeing in space are disposable t1's because of the above or T3D's and Garmurs.

I have to admit I agree with this, but also Gilas, Gilas everywhere.

But I see your point, the BS class is now in a very sorry state, stuck in a no mans land of capitals that finally can defend themselves against subcaps (great change tbh) and cruisers that simply have better kiting prospects and applied dps. |

Most people still make the connection, in spite of the galighitng your kind does. That's why they play something else.
Hence this thread.
It struck me the other day, being busy as usual, that the kind of person who has all day to think about messing up someone else's game is the kind of person that is already not being missed IRL and won't be missed in this game either. Ask anybody who left Eve and they won't remember the names of the people they didn't like.
Until CCP gets the rot out that has sided with the easy-kill community and decides to pull some serious changes to save Eve from mediocrity, it will continue to linger on, with the likes of you shitpoasting as if it made a difference.
Or maybe it makes a difference to you, a difference that the world would never know, and a difference nobody else could care about.

Well, that was an angry person upset about how he can't equate ganking to ****. I guess, indeed, for not thinking like this I am rot.
And you're a perfectly good person by calling other people rot.
I must admit that was one of the most well formulated whineposts I've ever read. You even ended with END TRANSMISSION just so you can put an end to it.
You're weak and you suck as a human being. And whenever I see you, I will make sure people understand that you equate ganking with ****.
Well done.

One or two dudes completely run Eve now. Not even players, just some guy that owns a gaming casino. So much for us players having any meaningful impact on the sandbox. Just get rich running a casino and you too can bend this game to your whims.
I didn't shed a tear over the Goons losing their empire, but it was an empire that took years of people working together to build. Torn down in a couple months by bad mechanics and a dude with a gambling site snapping his fingers. That doesn't bode well for anyone and certainly shatters any illusion of making an impact on this game.
As long as CCP continues to force terrible mechanics on us, and allow RMT'ers and gambling site owners to dominate the game, it's going to be a hard sell to get anyone interested in playing. Anyone that had the notion of being the next player to be profiled in Playboy or WSJ better not waste their time actually playing Eve, and just set up a competing casino site instead. |

Really?
You are espousing the sanctity of the sandbox, while deriding those who have simply taken advantage of it within the present rules.
/Doc would otherwise welcome a ban on out of game services for isk, but that is unlikely to happen.
