I have an additional point that may motivate CCP into shoring up the foundation before they add another floor to the trailer house.
For every new expansion, they are introducing new bugs. Those, compiled with bugs from previous releases, drive players bat-**** crazy. At some point, every player will eventually reach a point at which they will no longer be willing to shell out hard earned cash to play.
As the number of bugs increases, the number of players declines. I would be interested to see how many new accounts are started with the release of every new expansion and how many are allowed to go inactive within a couple weeks.
FIX THE CRAP CCP!!! Or sooner or later, you'll have no one left to develop new features for. It's not like there aren't a gajillion other MMO's out there that wouldn't be more than happy to take our money.

Gotta bump this back up.
More ******s starting new threads saying essentially the same thing, distracting from the threadnaught that (we hope) has the potential to get CCP's attention.

I think the CSM minutes and CCP's conspicuous lack of a reply to this uber threadnaught are evidence enough that Management is hell bent on cramming more useless and unwanted crap down our throats. They wave their newest buzz-word (stake-holder) about like they'll actually listen to anything we're saying.
CCP says they listen to the CSM, but the minutes say otherwise. I know the CSM brought this issue to their attention and CCP then told them as politely as possible to, and I'm paraphrasing, 'Shut the **** up. You're getting Dust and Incarna and you're all going to love it you ungreatfull little ****s."
One of CCP's concerns is developing new content to draw new players. Does that sound stupid to anyone else? A:) If they're new players, EVERYTHING IS NEW TO THEM!!! EVE is complex enough, they don't need more **** they can't use to confuse them further. B:) Most new players never stick with EVE that long anyway and all this new crap and all the broken old crap is exactly what's preventing CCP from growing the player base.
Apparently, several members of CCP management are console gamers who don't play EVE and another portion are more interested in trying on outfits and fancy hats all day rather than actually 'playing' EVE. On the other hand, I guess that seems perfectly reasonable when you don't have to worry about how much ISK is in your wallet and you can just roam around in Jove Battleships all day or just materialize 50 billion ISK into your wallet.

Well, a friend in UK pointed me to this article that explains exactly why EVE is being left to rot at the moment and why DUST is being jammed down our throats.

Basically, the profits from all of CCP's ventures are going to pay down one failed business man's HUGE debt. WE are the bail-out.
The CSM and every player in EVE can pound their fists and scream until they're blue in the face, but ultimately, the person who REALLY calls the shots is an incompetent idiot who was responsible for Iceland's financial colapse in 2008 and has managed to run several other companies into the ground as well.
I for one am tired of the smoke-screening and excuses from CCP and will not be renewing my subsriptions. Way to stay true to the dream CCP.
