Well at least it made it to msn: http://tech.uk.msn.com/gaming/articles.aspx?cp-documentid=154248947
My quote made it <------- Famous 
It is utterly shocking that CCP have now removed /Signed to try and reduce the number of pages of peoples discontent almost as shocking as the lag ingame.
Having been an active player from day 1 I have to say I have never seen it in such bad shape with the old school players, CCP might have loads of noobies signing up and milking them like the cash cow they think they are but the core longterm players have finally said enough is enough.
I seriously think CCP have only 1 real option and that is to roll back and dedicate the majority of manpower and some of the millions of úú$$ fixing what used to be THE premium MMORG, I am afraid 18 months and only 7 devs (I think my memory is right) just don't cut the mustard. If they dont I can only see this issue/problem growing into something that is going to destroy the game.
Always open for interviews and comments

CCP reply to save face but fail to let there customers know whats going on!!
'Currently, unsurprisingly, this effort is our No.1 development priority and we have given the specialised team carte blanche in re-attaining 1,000+ player fleet battles that EVE is famous for.'
I guess this must be the 15 dev's that this relates too......the other 107 dev's doing stuff that, tbh, people dont want until the Lag has been sorted out!!
The others!
(4 teams, approximately 15 developers)
Iæve now accounted for 14 teams, but we release plan for 18 teams. So what are the rest doing? Well, we have a team dedicated to testing automation. Currently they are focusing on "fleet fight in a can," which is a borderline sentient AI-testing automation feature that allows us to instantly simulate interesting aspects of massive fleet fights, getting tighter feedback loops to the expert team that is working on improvements on that front (we are talking MIT Ph.D. here). There is a team dedicated to making tools and reporting mechanism for the customer service department. The core infrastructure team (patch delivery mechanisms, among other duties) is in there, and then thereæs a another team dedicated to performance monitoring and improvements.
On top of that we have some (space) cowboys running around injecting code into Tranquility live to debug fleet battles and fix exploits (these are the same people that do code reviews and architectural integrity checks for the EVE codebase). This is where the MIT Ph.D. come into play. This doesnæt fall under the classification of a development team but contains computer scientists, QA people, operational staff and others. They are hard-at-work (often well-outside normal working hours) profiling and diagnosing all sorts of lag-related issues or trying to catch fringe cases that are impossible to reproduce on our test servers. This team will be greatly assisted by the "fleet fight in a can" sentient AI.
Keep up the good work CCP /Sarcasam!!!
