ò Wrapping up.
For almost as long as there has been T2, N.A.G.A has been running the Stepstone project as a mean to make T2 more widely accessible to EVE players. A 4 years run isn't so bad, but unfortunately it has reached a stop, most likely an end.
To make a long story short, the directorate of N.A.G.A has been hit hard by RealLifeÖ. Namely some of us crawled from under their rock, went straight into the bright light and, apparently blinded, didn't find their way back to the nerd cave.
Without going into the detailed list of such afflictions that have plagued our membership over the past 6 months, it's enough to say our CEO is gone playing golf (the non electronic kind, too), and left me with the keys and a 'very simple' mission: Originally by: Freewheeling Tidy up the house, biotch, we're going on extended vacations.
I'm not one to question the wisdom of our fearless leader (remember, the gods talk to him through smoke signs, and he's packing titanium golf clubs these days), so I'm doing exactly as told.
ò Stepstone is going into hibernation.
Well, it sort of is already: for the past 6 months, N.A.G.A prod has been mostly on hold, partly because producing and selling T2 has become impractical under our current circumstances. All Steps payments that took place from March 08 have in fact been made based on Jita going prices, but out of the corp reserves, for we barely placed any new product on the market.
All Stepstone BPO holders have been contacted in-game on their registered Stepstoner characters, and offered the option to recover their BPOs, or possibly sell them to N.A.G.A if interested. We're also open to act as brokers for those of the Stepstoners who'd like to put their BPOs for sale on a public auction.
I'm sorry about the delay on getting in touch with the Stepstone Project community, it was a hard decision for us to make, and thus uncertain for a few months whether we'd carry on or not, which explains why there wasn't more of a clear-cut timeline.
ò N.A.G.A is going out for a break and a beer on the lake shore.
N.A.G.A corp is not closing, but there's no telling yet what we're going to do next. We see relieving ourselves from any ongoing business commitment as a precondition to figure out our next moves with an open mind. Our T2 BPO portfolio is not for sale, although we may be interested in some trades of BPOs, for the sake of increasing the variety of the collection in exchange for prints we have in duplicate.
Stepstoners and interested parties are welcome to contact me by evemail if they have any questions.
Cheers, Elroy. --- "I really shouldnÆt be operating a keyboard." [Scott Adams]

I remember my very first cheetah. It was a gift from Stepstone. I just want you guys to know that I cared for it with love, shared it with as many as I could, and when it died it died like it lived. Guns blazing. Because of Stepstone I had 3+ years of fun being a shadowed demon. Thank you.

I don't know what your production is like.
But what impact would it have on T2 prices? Would they rise?
Btw: titanium golf clubs? I almost thought you said tritanium :D (A very hard, yet bendable metal. Cannot be used in human habitats due to its instability at atmospheric temperatures.) |
