It seems Seagul isn't the one to save EVE, it's the one who is dunking EVE into terribleness going far beyond any shittery any previous DEV ever managed. A Trojan horse.
I HAD decided to come back in full and to become, once again, a content creator but this is clear proof that any sort of long term investment just isn't worth it, CCP simply can't be trusted to do the right thing for the game and instead focuses on bad solutions to problems they themselves created in the first place.
Post on your main if you want people to care what you think.

Team Size Matters wrote:The CSM heard about this concept just a couple days ago--basically the same time you are, but we are communicating now specifically so that they can help gather your feedback and bring it to us for the summit in September, where we will be flying out the entire CSM for the first time. If you would rather talk to us directly, the forum thread for this blog is a great place to start and we will be opening up other channels, such as a Reddit AMA, in the coming weeks. But do please tell me why the hell do we vote for CSM again when they aren't even notified of this. I mean English may be a second language to me but it does seem to me that you neither thought nor really wanted to bring in on such a game-changing decision. Also they are now relegated to "ticket counters". Nice work! They notified the CSM and us at about the same time with 2 months before this is implemented. This way they can get maximum feedback. What is the problem here, you'd rather be kept in the dark longer? Especially considering that if the CSM was informed weeks before us people would be accusing them of collusion with some kind of CCP plot.
Neither the CCP or CSM can ever win. Everything they do is 100% evil 100% of the time.

Free play means more people to kill and buy my crap! Yay! I doubt I will even bother owning an alpha unless maybe an extra scout or something. yeah tell that to SWOTR.... god that game went down hill You sir are 100% correct SWTOR has become nothing but a meh game attached to a Pay Shop. In that case, however, the free-to-play mechanics came in AFTER the game was already headed downhill in a hurry, and that was entirely related to the lackluster design of the original game. It was basically a 4-player co-op game that attempted to also be an MMO and failed.
I think you guys are getting your causation mixed up. Yes, in the majority of cases where an MMO went free-to-play, it came in after a dramatic loss of players associated with bad design decisions, but that isn't the case here. EVE has experienced a slow decline in players primarily due to old veterans growing up and moving on with their lives, and more people deciding they don't want to get locked in to spending $15 a month for years to play a video game.
The whole thing of every reduction of the PCU count being as a result of CCP driving away their customers is bullshit. That's the same bullshit that was brought up before EVERY update this game has ever had even while it was expanding in player count year after year. As many people have pointed out before me, EVE Online is the game that has been dying and in it's last few months of life ever since it launched in 2003 if you believe the Forums.
Again, pointing out your concerns so they can be addressed is exactly what CCP has been requesting multiple times in each of these last two DevBlogs, but throwing around doom prophecies because you're scared of change isn't going to help anything.
Yes, when Skill Injectors were first announced, I had a STRONG knee-jerk reaction and thought it was a terrible idea. Then I took some time to think about how the idea was presented and how it would function and realized that it would actually have no impact whatsoever on my day-to-day experience and would be quite beneficial for others. Everyone here in this thread right now needs to give themselves the time to calm down and think rationally.

also, t1 production could not be more dead when you can scale t1 production jobs infinitely for free The DevBlog specifically states that you CANNOT extract skills from an Alpha Clone!
How many of you are just reading the title and then clicking the Comments thread to scream about things you don't even understand?
EDIT: Okay, I see what you're saying about subscribing them afterwards, but how do you make a profit with that? PLEX cost more than Skill Injectors.

Pretty much what is happening yes I'm so happy more people are starting to realize this. It's really not going to change anything that much. We'll just have more people to play with.
