Originally by: Cat o'Ninetails I think you would do well to realise that a business is nothing without its customers. You could apply your remarks to almost any business - there are people that complain about nearly everything. They're called "critics" or "reviewers". It just happens that Eve players tend to be a lot more vocal than most, but we should consider something else...
CCP suggests they have ~300k subscribers, and even taking into consideration the number of alt accounts etc, there are not anywhere near that many people on these forums, or any other, complaining about the state of the game. It's a fact that people are less likely to notice and/or comment on positive changes. I imagine that your boss is more likely to notice a mistake and comment on it, than if you just did your job with nothing going wrong. People like complaining.
CCP seems to be learning to admit when they are wrong, as is the case with a recent dev blog. I'm sure this is greatly appreciated by the community at large, but there is still some way to go. Sometimes it feels like they make arbitary and sweeping changes, and often all the players really want is a better explanation as to why. It's not all about "they don't listen" but more about "they don't tell us" in a lot of cases. YMMV.
I'm glad you're not in charge of CCP. Maybe this is Hilmar and co's baby, and they want to see it through. Some people raise a business purely to sell it on later, others will raise their business and go down with it at the end. I hope in their case, it is the latter.

I guess I have a mission for next fanfest
Cat still used an x, so you should be off the hook. Plus technically you said:

Like said before I will dye my hair blue for fanfest if you post in this thread without saying "lol" or "x" and actually being normal.
Since this is not that thread, you are doubly off the hook. ----------
