Albetta	Posted - 2010.04.25 13:15:00 - [1] What would you do if, for no apparent reason, EVE online suddenly stopped working, and CCP and it's employees disappeared of the face of the planet? Would you go play another MMO? Curl up in the fetal position? Go into the bathroom and cry while punching your reflection?
Alt Tabbed	Posted - 2010.04.25 13:20:00 - [2] yes.

CCP Navigator C C P C C P Alliance	Posted - 2010.04.25 13:25:00 - [3] Originally by: Albetta What would you do if, for no apparent reason, EVE online suddenly stopped working, and CCP and it's employees disappeared of the face of the planet?

I would wonder where I was, I guess Navigator Senior Community Representative CCP Hf, EVE Online

Allen Ramses Caldari Zombicidal Mania Reckoning.	Posted - 2010.04.25 13:27:00 - [4] Originally by: CCP Navigator I would wonder where I was, I guess Navigating. As for me, I'd probably rejoice as the chains that bind are finally severed! ____________ I'd make a forum signature that didn't suck, but I'm restricted by a character limit that does.
Rakshasa Taisab Caldari Sane Industries Inc. Initiative Mercenaries	Posted - 2010.04.25 13:30:00 - [5] Originally by: CCP Navigator I would wonder where I was, I guess In the cave of a volcano with blood on your hands inundated with the smell of burning bacon and backup tapes/harddrives. I recommend running out before the lava gets you.

I recommend running out before the lava gets you. Wait...are you suggesting that the heart of CCP/EvE is Jim Gaffigan?
Atticus Fynch	Posted - 2010.04.25 13:58:00 - [7] I don't think EVE will ever disappear. Even if CCP folded, some other company would buy it and continue development.

Ran Khanon Amarr Vengeance Innovations	Posted - 2010.04.25 14:30:00 - [10] Best suggestion to fix the lag and put a stop to macro miners once and for all. /supported Help us to make parrots game related today!
Ans Blix Amarr Eleutherian Guard	Posted - 2010.04.25 14:33:00 - [11] Edited by: Ans Blix on 25/04/2010 14:34:05 Edited by: Ans Blix on 25/04/2010 14:33:28 I would come to the conclusion that the Icelandic Government had finally had had enough and begun sacrificing its citizens to apease the volcano god, begining of course with Wrangler and Fear (YOU STILL OWE ME A POLARIS YOU LITTLE PR*K!!!!) but eventaully chewing through the ranks of CCP ------------------------------------ - Ans Blix The battle of Will over Reason* Silence is a true friend that never betrays
Cyprus Black Caldari League of Extraordinary Moustaches	Posted - 2010.04.25 14:35:00 - [12] I'd probably give up MMOs in general. Everything else just seems bland and watered down. Restrictive and railroaded in progression. ___________________________________ "In the land of predators, the lion does not fear the jackal." -Dexter
Nikita Alterana Gallente The Inevitable Corp	Posted - 2010.04.25 14:38:00 - [13] I think I would cry for a few days, mope around miserably, and eventually try to find something to replace the gaping hole in my life.
Helmh0ltz Blue is the New Red	Posted - 2010.04.25 15:16:00 - [14] Smartass answer: I would whine on the forums about the unscheduled downtime. Real answer: I would probably re-subscribe to Champions Online. That game has a great team working on it, and will probably be pretty fun in a couple of years. To bad it was practically in alpha build when it was released. Besides, I'm FB friends with Bill Roper so I should probably be playing his MMO, just to show support. Unfortunately, EVE is way more fun and I simply do not have time for EVE+Other MMo atm. ====== Your signature is freakishly huge for this forum. Please resize according to the forum rules, thanks.

Xyla Kador	Posted - 2010.04.25 15:52:00 - [15] Edited by: Xyla Kador on 25/04/2010 15:52:31 Originally by: Nikita Alterana I think I would cry for a few days, mope around miserably, and eventually try to find something to replace the gaping hole in my life. is it me or does this sound like the default response to a major break up? EDIT: on topic: ...well Black Prophecy Looks pretty cool
Arboreal Feline Nondegradable Tritanium Space Rodents	Posted - 2010.04.25 17:02:00 - [16] I'd probably try out Darkfall, since from what I've seen that's the only game that has near the same game mechanics and player mentality as EVE.
Cipher Jones Minmatar	Posted - 2010.04.25 17:25:00 - [17] who says i dont play another MMO This is clearly a signature.
Orion Cor Gallente	Posted - 2010.04.25 18:20:00 - [18] I would return to my addiction to AstroEmpires, paying to play on 8 servers instead of just this one. ______________________________ "Irpom ignopom ifosis." ~Me, 1992
Imagonnawhupya Emergence Inc.	Posted - 2010.04.25 18:39:00 - [19] I would look up from my PC and realize I just lost my excuse to not change my kid's diapers. /but honey, I'm in the middle of a gate camp, I can't leave NOW!

Arvano	Posted - 2010.04.25 18:48:00 - [20] Well, for the last 8 years or so I've always had an MMO to play. I first started with crappy free ones until I discovered WoW, which sucked several years of my life away, which I don't regret because when I played, before it was dumbed down and everything was handed to everybody on a plate, it was a very challenging, good sociable game. I met better friends through that game than I ever have in real life, all from other countries, and still talk to a few, managed to convince one to come to EVE with me, turns out he likes it, so I at least have one person I know I can trust and do things with and whatnot. When I quit WoW there was a vacuum where I jumped from MMO to MMO for a while, I think I tried them all. Age of Conan, LotRO, Warhammer, some old ones whose names I forget, then I found EVE, which filled the hole. I suppose if EVE suddenly stopped existing I'd try LotRO again, I rather enjoyed it. Not playing in guilds, because as somebody said, guilds in those types of games tend to be full of ********s and kids, but I can have just as much fun playing on my own.

I think a company like Bioware could really make EVE rock.
Kyra Felann Gallente Neh'bu Kau Beh'Hude Ushra'Khan	Posted - 2010.04.25 18:58:00 - [22] Originally by: Albetta Curl up in the fetal position? Go into the bathroom and cry while punching your reflection? Maybe these two. I doubt I would play another MMO, since EVE has ruined all other MMOs for me. I can't play them for longer than about a month without getting bored. Fortunately, I have tons of other non-MMO games to play, so I wouldn't get bored, though I would definitely miss EVE.
Guilty Man Minmatar Guilty People	Posted - 2010.04.25 19:02:00 - [23] An episode from Matrix comes to mind. Where Neo escapes into the sky from the crowd of Smits after the fight.
Ryhss Caldari The Templar Navy SRS.	Posted - 2010.04.25 19:50:00 - [24] Originally by: CCP Navigator Originally by: Albetta What would you do if, for no apparent reason, EVE online suddenly stopped working, and CCP and it's employees disappeared of the face of the planet? Would you go play another MMO? Curl up in the fetal position? Go into the bathroom and cry while punching your reflection? I would wonder where I was, I guess Wherever you go, there you are. I'd go back to City of Heroes.
Killer Gandry Caldari TerraNovae	Posted - 2010.04.25 20:21:00 - [25] I would go past the quickies and have some more extensive enjoyment. Though the talking and cuddling afterwards also get's into vieuw then
Thargat Caldari The Executives IT Alliance	Posted - 2010.04.25 21:27:00 - [26] Originally by: Albetta What would you do if, for no apparent reason, EVE online suddenly stopped working, and CCP and it's employees disappeared of the face of the planet? Would you go play another MMO? Curl up in the fetal position? Go into the bathroom and cry while punching your reflection? I'd go find them. The most likely scenario would be a b-day party gone horribly wrong, or right and them all slouching at a bar somewhere recovering from the hangover. Or possibly a business trip during volcano season. "CCP employees stranded in copenhagen, EVE runs amok and UK confiscates the servers with terrorist accusations against Kaupthing bank and fish eaters in general" Necroing the old 0.0 thread

Ashira Twilight	Posted - 2010.04.25 21:51:00 - [28] I would grab some torches and a pitchfork and go find those asshats, forming an angry mob as I went.
Ninetails o'Cat League of Super Evil	Posted - 2010.04.25 22:03:00 - [29] Originally by: Cat o'Ninetails i would just be glad cos that means no more pirates too lol xx Want to make a bet on that?
Xearal	Posted - 2010.04.25 22:36:00 - [30] I would grab my shotgun, and my chainsaw, head to Iceland, and explore the place where CCP HQ is. And yes, I WOULD grab the shotgun and chainsaw, because if CCP suddenly went 'poof' like that, there is bound to be scary things in that place ( there probably are now too! ). Finally after killing hordes of zombies, monsters and the evil demon that took over their place, I'd make it to the Eve mainframe, and turn it back on, so Eve is Saved :) Then I'd wonder where the bonus level is. :p
5n4keyes Sacred Templars Black Star Alliance	Posted - 2010.04.25 22:40:00 - [31] I would probably open eve, and just look at the status: Unknown for hours and hours and hours, and then days and days...
kano donn	Posted - 2010.04.25 23:16:00 - [32] I would finally finish all my other computer related projects.
VicturusTeSaluto Metafarmers MeatSausage EXPRESS	Posted - 2010.04.25 23:25:00 - [33] Not likely that I would play another mmo single they are almost exclusively based around ***** fantasy themes(orks, elves, wizards, magic etc) rather than being based around killing... I would wait for Planetside 2- however I bet that will end up more like betafield than the first planetside. I would just go play some shooters or RTS if EVE went away.
Manfred Rickenbocker	Posted - 2010.04.25 23:52:00 - [34] Originally by: Allen Ramses Originally by: CCP Navigator I would wonder where I was, I guess Navigating. Flight of the (CCP) Navigator? ------------------------ Peace through superior firepower: a guiding principle for uncertain times.
Taxesarebad	Posted - 2010.04.26 00:00:00 - [35] i would go to iceland then UK or w/e the servers is turn eve on but have dev hax, i would then move all of cribba's ships to amar and allow Him to have his titan anchor and no 1 touch with infront of the station, i would then delete everyone except cribba's veldspar and tritanium, you would also see me, in my jove mothership killing concord in amar.
Herzog Wolfhammer Gallente Aliastra	Posted - 2010.04.26 03:22:00 - [36] I would like, read a book or something.

Tharsgaard Caldari Fukd up Beyond all Reckognition	Posted - 2010.04.29 21:32:00 - [40] Edited by: Tharsgaard on 29/04/2010 21:32:23 Originally by: Cyprus Black Edited by: Cyprus Black on 25/04/2010 14:40:59 I'd probably give up MMOs in general. Everything else just seems bland and watered down. Restrictive and railroaded in progression. Plus the elitism in other MMOs is horrible. Quote: If you are class "X", you're only permitted to do job "Y". Your gear must be up to specifications and uniform to every other "X" class in the guild or you're not invited to participate. You will raid on this day and this time, regardless of your RL job and family. Failure to participate will result in guild kick. If loot drops, you're only allowed to roll on XYZ assuming you have enough DKP. If you do not you get nothing for your time. Yeah, been there done that. Never again. Old but funny as **** e=i haz the dumb _

Toterra	Posted - 2010.04.30 18:36:00 - [45] I would go find my wife and get her to bring Eve and CCP back. I am positive that somehow she had something to do with it.
I SoStoned Caldari	Posted - 2010.04.30 18:56:00 - [46] Go out back and hack the weeds off of the old boat, then go fishing again... which I haven't done since I got roped into this addiction. --- Dreamer: My dream, Freddy! MY RULES. Freddy Kruger: groans Awwwww, f**k. --- Never give up!
