A Paxist Treasure - Pax Ammaria - Collector's Item

Free worthless fluff, aka vanity spinny ships. Rage at CCP
Some free monetary value items that are useful to some degree. Rage at CCP

Sooooo, yeah.

Choice of both, better... yet then rage for even more free isk is certain.

at least add a remap as a gift

Aaah the snowflakes. Hey they don't HAVE to give anything. Ever hear about the gift horse? But then again you DESERVE things.

If I gave you a broken TV for Christmas would you be happy or would you complain that now you have to carry it to the curb for the trash truck? Why is clogging up my sell orders with useless crap and bending over the cruiser manufacturers something I should be grateful for?

I wonder what you get if you don't select anything. Could solve your trash problem right there.

I wonder what you get if you don't select anything. Could solve your trash problem right there. And just because it's not the 50" LED TV you bought yourself doesn't mean that 19" CRT is broken.

I'd fix it, and then I'd be saying: "Hey! Free TV!"

NO WAY! +2 IMPLANTS AND ALL THE CRUSIER SKILL BOOKS I HAVE ALREADY TRAINED> **** YEAH CCP!

Something interesting will be here soon ...

I love useless spinny ship! Go zephyr!

Free worthless fluff, aka vanity spinny ships. ...

..vanity spinny ships...

You, sir are a genious!

Something like:
Battlecruiser Skill: +10% bonus on spin count per level
Role Bonus: Cannot undock

...
Anyway, of all the gifts being offered, this one looked interesting:

A Paxist Treasure - Pax Ammaria - Collector's Item

I wasn't sure what the Pax Ammaria is so I did an Evelopedia search and found this page created by CCP Abraxas:
http://wiki.eveonline.com/en/wiki/Pax_Ammaria_%28Chronicle%29




I imagine the Pax Ammaria will be similar to the Pax Amarria. I have that item and still can't find a use for it in-game.

Pathetic

yeah remap please ! :D

I wonder what you get if you don't select anything.

Eligible pilots who do not select a gift during this time will receive the "Plug and Play" set by default at the end of the offer timeframe.

I didn't read this thread or the OP, but when can we claim our free stuff?

EDIT: I'm going to get the processing skill books, just in case you guys were wondering, which you probably were/are.

Thanks and all that but couldn't you think of something that would be of some use or treasure to someone who has been playing more than 6 months?

Apart from "Refine your skills" which i think is worth the most, there is nothing there that excites, titillates, inspires or makes me even care about EVE's 9th Birthday beyond, click, sell thanks for the free 50 mil.. Assuming of course that the implants are not a typo in which case it's more or less pointless to anyone over a certain wallet balance/age.

Free stuff is nice, but stuff i have and can get already get ad nauseum is pretty meh. I'm sure the new people will appreciate it though.

Corpse Launchers for Christmas plox

That's it. We're all getting coal for the winter expansion.

Just as long as the collector's Pax Amarria isn't the same as the signed Pax Amarria, I'll be happy.

Ok, if you don't like the current offer here is my counter proposal.


CCP negwallets every active subscription by 50m per account - removing 15 trillion isk from the game. This reduces inflation making everything cheaper for everyone.

The forums would also ensure it was a birthday gift to remember.

These forums actually disgust me...

As a 4 month old player, thank you CCP The only one pretty useless to me is the Gallente set, as I have yet to cross train in to any of the other races at all, or bothered to go industry. Heck, nice bit of free money all around anyway!

WOW - YOU HAEV ALL THE CRUISIER SKILLS ALLREDDY TRAINED YOU MUST BE EVE GOD OR SOEMTHIN!

If I gave you a broken TV for Christmas would you be happy or would you complain that now you have to carry it to the curb for the trash truck? Why is clogging up my sell orders with useless crap and bending over the cruiser manufacturers something I should be grateful for? Both my suggestions were things that would be useful for everyone and wouldn't screw over industrialists.

ur right

this is Eve

they should steal some of ur ****!

I agree. It's just a bunch of stuff that's only useful to newbies. Couldn't we get a bonus remap or some free SP or something else that would be useful for everyone?

9 Years in game, 146 mil SP and 358 skills trained, hmmmmm what to get as my 'gift'

Thanks and all that but couldn't you think of something that would be of some use or treasure to someone who has been playing more than 6 months?

Could this be the whiniest thread on the forums? There's a lot of competition, but I vote YES!

What do YOU think, capsuleers?

complain much?

Corpse Launchers for Christmas plox

Oh no! Why did I wait a month after beta to create me eve account? Granted I not played for 9 years solid, but I do think CCP could at least compensate me.

well, i say "thank you" to CCP.

I choosed the skillbooks, and splitted up the gift anong my characters.
