+1 to learning how to fit a hulk properly. |

But there is other MMO's on the planet & subscription numbers continue to improve. Every. Single. Year.

It wouldn't be like EVE if it didn't accept asshattery. |

Most people don't consider being killed repeatedly or having to do research on setups that won't keep them alive anyway much fun. Even a 32k EHP tanked Hulk setup won't keep you alive long enough to run away if the ganker has a partner. This isn't rocket surgery.
eve is a game where information matters
if you can't be bothered to gather basic information you will lose, repeatedly and painfully
"having to do research" is a basic feature of the game and if it's too hard for you might i suggest a nice game of tic-tac-toe |

CCP seems to be the sort of company that values players who are actually dedicated & enjoy the game, over sheer numbers of people playing. Slow, steady growth is better than an explosion of growth quickly followed by an equally massive slump. |

Eve playerbase could increase by 50% every year and whiny little ***** would still use the "this will bring more people" argument to push their ****** idea of balance. |

OK this degradation of the player base... is it this game in particular, or MMOs in general or... society? It's rough out there. Joblessness, tyranny, wars, and in the USA, more women are fatter than ever. (I had to put something on the end of that but statistically it is true) Collapsing societies breed assholes. Period. Now, what does "CCP" mean? It means "Crowd Control Productions". And it just might be a service to the world when internet space pixels are being destroyed instead of cars being keyed, dogs being poisoned, and houses being burned down. Sometimes I wonder if it was planned (and I have the patent for the deluxe grounding strap made for tin foil hats). Whatever the case, it's global. The world sucks. it's full of people. People play games. They are going to makes those games suck. They at least make it interesting. Chances are, everybody could enjoy the game if they would stop taking themselves too darned seriously. And I do mean EVERYBODY.
I live in the city of Philadelphia and i can see where this post is coming from.

Best line.
Took a drive today and saw 12 women along 2 blocks. All hot, flabby steaming POS messes, and all wearing something they shouldn't.
People in this game are quite... meh , but other people can't just play a game and not understand the rules.
Anyone recall a game called RF Online? That game had neutral zones where PVP was open and rampant. It had a "Concord" system where a giant muppet protected miners of the race who won the chip war within a specific map. The problem was that if you rushed enough people into the mines you could effectively kill everyone inside because the muppet could only target one person at a time and his attacks were AOE attacks that grew weaker the further one stood from the center of impact. The "entitled" miners cried foul and it became a bannable offense to treat the game like a sandbox.
Guess where that game is now? Sure as hell in a state of obscurity. |

Whiney, self entitled players who want to make this game the same as every other sterile, fluffy MMO are to blame for much of the discourse. Thank god that CCP knows what happens when these players have been given what they demanded in other games. |

Clicked link expecting Firefly related topic.
Left disappointed.
On a serious note, welcome to the internet. I'd like to think I'm one of the more helpful players out there but don't blind yourself to how the net has evolved, you can largely blame anon for that. The power of anon compels a lot of people to.. well, I've long believed Eve to be a reflection of how society would be if it were more lawless. If people can get away with it, they will and people like us will get stomped on eventually, so it's a case of do what you can to avoid drawing attention to yourself, or get stomped hard.
Adapt or die, as they say. The Gaming MoD - retro to modern, console to MMO, I blog about it if it's a game and I'm interested in it. Yes, I play games other than Eve and I don't care if you think I'm wrong. |

In truth, people were saying exactly the same things by the end of 2003. When I check troll in the dictionary, it has a photo shopped picture of you standing somewhere in the vicinity of a point.
