You guys have been crying like babies for a couple of days now, I don't really think you can go back to that "we don't really care" attitude.
we've been filing legitimate complaints about a breach of the rules that was correctly addressed by ccp
where were the tears again?
Yeah, let's go with that story if it makes you feel better

Look up T20.
You realize you are refering to something that occured 3+ years ago by 1 dev (in favor of Bob), however it was not Bob that "influenced" CCP (this one dev) to cheat?
Nitpicking, and you're missing the point. That incident shows that BoB isn't afraid of asking their CCP buddies to let them cheat some more.
Nitpicking? Just pointed out it occured 3 years ago. It was 1 dev who acted on his own. I'm sure these facts are of no interest to you.
We asking CCP buddies to cheat? Seriously? Yes, we cheated by asking CCP to change our alliance name 2 months ago when the change initially occured

Not that the comment of one member represents the whole alliance, but it seems at least one GoonSwarm member also would not be afraid to at least petition what he/she knows is against the rules.

Alliance Name Changes.
I mean come on. These are supposed to be Corporations and Alliance's of corporations. As in a business entity. We see business's change their name all the time. Mergers, hostile buy outs, bankruptcy's, scandles.. they all give reason for a real world business to change it's name.
Just charge 5bil isk for each alliance name change, no more then one every 6 months.
And BAM you'll make tons of players happy.
well, cept the goons. They LOVE this ****. Allow changes. Ops, disallow. Opps, allow.. Opps.. disallow. They LOVE it.
I'd support it. Heck, allow character name changes too. There could even be a delay: Submit name change, wait two months, name changes. For accountability purposes keep any former names in the alliance/corp/character info page somewhere.
People who made a typo, bought a character with a stupid name, or want to RP getting married or something would love to pay ISK to get a name change. Some might even be willing to pay real life money to do so.

Originally by: GM Grimmi We appreciate the feedback from everyone. After reviewing all of these very valid concerns, we were compelled to go back over the information we’d collected in this case and carefully weighed it again against the precedents set in the past. Ultimately, we felt we had no other recourse than to reverse the name change, the key factor being that during this re-investigation we learned that the KenZoku alliance was created several months before the BoB alliance leadership switched hands. That being the case, the name change request was not submitted within a timely manner, as it had been in the legacy cases we were holding up as examples.
Bad, very bad CCP.
Either you are complete idiots (because you didn't know after TWO MONTHS of investigation that KenZoku was created several months before BoB was disbanded) or you are utter morons (because you just do what the loudest whiners on the forums demand) or you just lied about the reasons why you changed and re-changed the names.
But it seems that AGAIN the goons with their threadnaugh whining-campain has massive success to blackmail CCP in doing what the goons want.
Carrier nerf goon-threadnaught? Dev-debugging a goon capital shipyard threadnaught?
I really thought that CCP got professional during 2008 and wouldn't give in into any threadnaught/blackmail-attempt of a very small player base.
Obviously I was wrong.

Well it looks like the argument was not worked out properly at all from CCP's perspective. If sound it out was what they were doing why did they not tell us? Instead they present it as a decision and we go through the arguments for them. They check the facts since we cannot prove anything. They find the best argument and then fit the facts and bingo they sound good......
Seriously CCP it took you two months to make the wrong decision - now suddenly when you see the arguments you think you made all of a sudden the right decision.
Now you descend into farce.
Goonswarm and Kenny are making fools of you.
Spineless in the extreme - sorry CCP but this is really poor.
As for goons and Kenny fans - seriously guys all of you should be ashamed of yourselves. Its a joke. CCP is a joke and so is Eve....

When other alliances lost their name and it was taken the procedure was to give the name back, lets start there. Give BOB a choice, remain as Kenzoku or disband, pay 1bn and get the BOB name back.
Next, ask all CCP employees to stop playing in these two alliances. What you are doing is NOT working, the system continues to get abused and you continue to look like corrupt developers. Who is going to come play this game when ambulation goes in if the public views it as a cheat-box for devs? I'm all for devs playing the game but this just continues to get out of hand. If there are no devs in these alliances then no one can complain. I know it sucks, I'm a professor at a state college and for some reason they wont let me date the hot students. It stinks, but the rules are there for a reason guys, how about you join the rest of the professional world and put some policies in place to protect your products integrity?

Just in case you are still confused, SOV was already reset at this point. It took CCP 2 months to come to a decision, we didn't just request this 5 days ago

Heh, Kenzuko still missing the point I see.
After BOB disbanded they joined the alt alliance Kenzuko that had existed months before the specific point that BOB got disbanded. The point now CCP even see.
It had Sov in place, it had all been setup and organised, yet you wanted to rename via the petition you put in place the moment BOB got Disbanded.
How old the petition is goes against you more then for you in my eyes, as it shows you preempted getting around the alliance mechanics.
You almost got away with it too.
if you disagree with me then you should probably post a response and stop reading my signature. |

nothing to do with goonies; i am not a goon. personally their posting it atrocious and i get so sick of reading forums because of them. but, you are changing the subject from a valid complaint that many players were upset about into a goonie attack because your argument has no other leg to stand on. the CoW incident was not the same; the BoB incident was in game mechanics and legit. but you know all this already and trolling goonies is something you are starting to enjoy more than logging in and playing the game.
I don't troll, I am mearly stateing facts. That if this was the real world, lets say Target buys out Walmart, and decides to remove that name and flag it as bullseye instead, would you, or anyother person complain, and argue, and whine that its not fair, that the corporation has done some wrong doing, but labeling them as corporate ****'s for not keeping the walmart name? I highly doubt that. CCP took two months, investigating, then upon review decided to change the alliance name, for what reason they only know. After that was completed look at all the threads of outcries of people pointing fingers at this company, whom provides us the public, an entertainment service for 14.95 a month, that in most part everyone enjoys. That does not require anyone of us to purchase expansions to this game like other company's do.
I just see this as nothing but a thread of goonie and supporters tears, people whom have been brainwashed and lied too, and are just attempting to cause this corporation hardship, and possibly inflicting financial problems. How many people would have quit over this had ccp not reverted its decision? How many forums has this been brought up on, and has caused numerous possible subscribers to think again over joining "OUR" community? The fall out of these claims of favortism will impact ccp, and eve-online. Not only for them, but for the rest of us, meaning no new players to meet, old ones to leave, and shifting the population growth to a decline instead.
The accusations that are being tossed about this subject are more than just impacting the current playerbase.
So everyone grab a box of tissues, wipe away the tears, ask a friend for a hug to comfort you, and just stop with these silly and unfounded accusations. They reverted the change to make the general public happy, now run along and all those posts that were made bashing CCP as a company on its own, reply to them that you apologize, that your emo rants were out of context, that our cries were dealt with, and that CCP did what you wanted.
In the years that I have played this game, I have enjoyed every aspect, never paying heed to the political or corporate complaints that have been made. But now its just getting out of hand. And my friends, you all must put down your pitch-forks, your torches and break off from the lynch mob you have formed, and instead of trying to destroy this game, and this company's name. Spread word of the good things, and times you've had.

Sadly you miss the point. People have a right to petition a change in the game (ie, a ship reimbursment). It is CCP's job to know and enforce the rules and should have simply denied the request.
I sure hope that next time someone petitions ANYTHING starts yelling how that person is not above the rules.

Wow, CCP great job first with new expansion!
Also great job with willing to look at the whole renaming issue. I am not a goonie or Bobbie, just a carebear trying to build his own DisneyUniverse. So I have no sides on who win. But I do support TOTAL fairplay in this game following rules till they are changed (which is ccp right to do).
So big thumbs up!
P.S. to Goonswarm you won but I politely suggest that the use of the old [BoB corp in forums posting be used lightly. (putting salt in wound idea).
To Kenny hey you don't have much sov. anyway create a new name (just be careful, no takebacks.

I am happy playing and I respect CCP enormously, and I am not afraid to talk about it to others. In fact, I am personally responsible for several of their current subscriptions. But I can't accept what you seem to imply, that we are under some kind of moral obligation to make sure that CCP succeeds as a company and that it's our fault if they suffer bad consequences from their mistakes.
CCP often rightly gets good publicity for cutting-edge features and unique game concepts.
When they screw up like they did here, they will get some bad publicity. That is on them, not us.

Why can't you accept that the original decision was completely and utterly ridiculous, while showing CCP's obvious favoritism for BoB? They had to reverse it because we called them on how they were essentially allowing BoB to cheat. It had zero precedent, zero justification, zero logic.

Originally by: Clone 1 At least Avon will be happy, thats the old 2005 Avon, not the new Avon.
Honestly I wasn't overly concerned either way. Now we have the situation where CCP are selectively enforcing rules in favour of Goonswarm's name squatting, going against previous descisions. That was the whole problem in the first place. The only "fair and equitable" resolution would have been an immediate descision to allow BoB to reform under their old name, which we would have done. As that option was not on the table due to delays, we had to take action in order to resolve standing problems mostly. Sov would have worked out the same anyway - our towers would have been claiming no matter what name we formed under. Kenny was a convenience, a short term fix while CCP decided what they were going to do. Precedent indicated that the name would have been returned to us, but it would seem that CCP decided to go against that for some reason.
If you are trying to make out I should have been as worked up over this as I was about racism in 2005, I don't agree.
Besides, at least now I don't have to change my sig.
