Thinking they would actually do this is just plain dumb..
Having ships and implants pop up out of thin air would destroy the market and make +5 implants worth 1 isk eventually and the same for ships.
Not that I wouldn't mind being able to fill my head with +5 implants and go around flying a faction bs full with faction/officer mods and not worry about a thing... it just isn't how EVE works.. thank god.
Honestly though, they had me fooled untill I started to read the comments. __________________________________________________

I really dont understand your sense of humor. I think at CCP there is too much beer. Why dont you fix the insane lag wich is occured since 1.4 patch everywhere instead of wasting time in these immature things?

YEAH CCP! I mean..come on! We pay for these services! We dont expect you to have any free time at all. In fact, you should devote yourselves to running and fixing eve, EVEN WHEN YOU ARENT BEING PAID!
Failing that, you can ignore the nubtard here, and pat yourself on the back for having some community relations. Some people..

Here I was thinking "Wow, I can not only insure my Ity V but a great answer for Gate camps..."
It would be so fun to jump a concord insured gate scout into a gate camp, then follow them with the hauler to clean up the wrecks left by concord... and if the hauler gets popped, I get it back... all 200 million ISK worth...
Oh well...

Yes all CCP employees should have there sence of homour removed how dare you make a joke my god how horrible. You could be fixing things instead of having a sence of homour. Actually stop eating lunch thats not fixing things. No sleeping either. Hell just live in front of your computers and fix things.
Seriously though you had fun with this most of us see the funny side. Why do people assume that the guy wrighting stuff on the forums could fix problem X. Do they think you just open the code and untick the **** the users option?

You bastards!
You had me until I read the last bit.
Unfortunately the death penalty is one of the things that keeps the player base from growing. I know lots of people that play EVE love it, but I suspect that the majority of MMO players worldwide find it intolerable. It's a shame really.
For better or for worse, it's one of the things preventing EVE from becoming more than a niche MMO.
If the goal is to BE a niche MMO and "be true to EVE" whatever that means, then you're doing it perfectly. But if your goal is to gain large MMO market-share, then it's not going to happen the way things are now; as is evidenced by such a relatively small player-base.
I'm not trying to imply that I know what EVE should be - that's up to you guys at CCP, I wouldn't presume to do that, but I hope you don't mind me sharing some insight. - Better UI! Faster skill training! |

Even better than the post, the moaning and crying that ensued. I especially liked the 'I am gonna quit if you do this' posters. That stuff just slays me everytime.
Thank you so much for the great laugh CCP.
If you dont make me laugh like this every April Fools, I am gonna quit.

It was the abuse of the word "epic" that gave it away for me. Epic fleet battles" or "epic levels" (the optional D&D rules) i can take, but please don't use it to describe objects.

Maybe post times vary depending on individual time zone settings, but this is what I'm seeing in the original dev post:

So stop complaining about how he didn't actually post on April 1st
As for me, I was pretty aware of the date beforehand so I came into the post ready for some lulz.

its simply amazing how many retards fall for the same jokes every year. its almost as if you could tell them the sky is falling, and theyll go get thier umbrella, because they dont want the sky to hit them in the head. and tell them this once a day, every day, for a month. and theyll fall for it every day.
i mean, come on. i look forward to april 1st, just so i can point and laugh at all the morons that believe everything they see/read.

Originally by: Shigawahhhhh Seriously anything on a website about a major change on april fools is not serious EVER!!!!!
In a brilliant move, Google#s Gmail was announced on April 1st. Slashdot and other geek communties of course ridiculed it as an april fool joke. Who's laughing now... :)

It's one of the first interfaces (betas, first retail, there was an even earlier one well before that) from an old version of the client. Going a few years back now...
The different ones are cool but I have to say I would miss our modern conveniences a lot. Like the overview! And actually seeing / accessing all modules at the same time.

Huh, I've gone my whole prank-filled life without having anyone mention a "before 12pm" rule on April Fools. Must be a European thing? Or is the U.S. midwest off in its own little world again?
If one is limited to before noon, that would be horrible, I'm usually not even up by that time! 24 hours of pranking privelege, that's what I believe in!
This blog got me, too.
Eve is primarily an experiment in social engineering, and if the devs want to change every rule to suit their whim, they are free to do it even though it'll drive people away. Doing it for mass market appeal? That is one motivation I wouldn't believe for a minute. Unless those guys in Iceland are into Mindflood. I was on Crash myself, so they snuck this one by me

Well, it got me, even now... Rushed to Vent to talk to my Corpies about it... Lucky, they commented on the April fools part before I embarrassed myself too much...
Somethings I was like, mmm, ok, I can manage with that... Then you took it too far! Had I read it all before I had to talk to someone I would have laughed at it!
