HerFirefly	Posted - 2010.08.19 07:01:00 - [1] I'd say mine was definitely getting trapped in null sec. My CEO at the time mouthed off to the alliance. Then he proceeded to destroy two haulers full of alliance materials. The alliance kicked our corps out and told the entire coalition to fire on site. I had to sit in station for 3 days waiting to quit my corp and find a new one. The Insane Pen! http://theinsanepen.blogspot.com/
Musical Fist Gallente NAP Coalition	Posted - 2010.08.19 08:13:00 - [2] Mine was joining a razor fleet and have everyone brown nose the FC, im all for ass kissing but some people make it too obvious -- Recruitment now open!!
Vernn Miller Caldari Volition Cult	Posted - 2010.08.19 08:18:00 - [3] Was two or three months old into EVE and undocked in Y-MPWL (lolprovi) into a xdeathx hac gang that had the station bubbled. Rigged drake went down (rigs were expensive at that time) and so did my pod with +4 implants . Being a newbie meant cash was always not enough so I was like . Good times! Looking at it now that sort of thing happens quite often and I don`t get THAT gutted when it happens .
Sazuka Kirr Caldari Trans-Solar Works Rooks and Kings	Posted - 2010.08.19 08:37:00 - [4] I've had a lot of bad experiences in my time, but looking back on them and realising that this is just a game, they don't seem so ... well ... bad. Picking out the 'worst' ... mmm ... I guess it would be quite recent. A friend of mine kept bugging me to resub my accounts and I kept saying no. Then, finally, I gave in and resubbed one, started playing EVE and then resubbed the second. About 3 weeks later, my friend noticed I had scored a few kills in-game and asked how the 'sale' was going: "What 'sale'?" I asked. "I thought you were selling your accounts so I could buy myself a Hel." "No," I responded. "[insert generic emorage]" He hasn't spoken to me since and seems to have left EVE as well. This was a real life friend, I should add. Someone I'd known for over 10 years!

Darek Castigatus Immortalis Inc. Shadow Cartel	Posted - 2010.08.19 08:58:00 - [6] Originally by: Louis deGuerre Reading that CCP more or less abandons EVE for 18 months which is wrong, stop being an out of date troll. My worst moment was getting a gila blown up in a level 3 mission because i fell asleep. http://desusig.crumplecorn.com/sig.php
Anddeh McNab Matari Department of Gun Control	Posted - 2010.08.19 08:59:00 - [7] Originally by: Louis deGuerre Reading that CCP more or less abandons EVE for 18 months And we're hitting the shots early this morning... My worst experience in EVE was when I first played on a trial account; few days in and I'd finished buying up the bits for a shiney new Rifter. Unfortunately the last piece was in Amamamamammamake and there was (I assume) a pirate gang lurking on the station when I undocked. Boom boom :(
Intense Thinker Minmatar	Posted - 2010.08.19 09:24:00 - [8] The last 24 hour downtime, before that the 24 hour downtime before that one Signature locked for editing a moderator's warning. Zymurgist

Antihrist Pripravnik 4S Corporation Morsus Mihi	Posted - 2010.08.19 09:50:00 - [10] Edited by: Antihrist Pripravnik on 19/08/2010 09:51:54 Having to haul a large deathstar POS setup to my first 0.0 home system from another 0.0 system that was 6 jumps away in my blockade runner. Since I was the only one to have a cov ops transport ship in my corp and I was the CEO, I "took one for the team" and dedicated my whole play time to hauling the damn thing for a week. Much later I found out that the alliance that was holding space there (Sylph) had a jump bridge in that station system leading next door to my system, but they didn't let us use it while we were moving in. I so wanted to shoot them all, but found out that Sylph was nothing more than a bunch of inactive alts and Ushra'Khan spies at that moment. A couple of months later Sylph disbanded. But, following the "Always look at the bright side of life" that POS looked like this.
Dr Sheepbringer Gallente	Posted - 2010.08.19 10:32:00 - [11] Didn't put a 30 day skill when a patch came out... Stop whining.
Minchurra Caldari Feudum Chalybis The Spire Collective	Posted - 2010.08.19 10:34:00 - [12] Setting up posses, its less of a specific event but just hatred in general. I envy how the logistics people manage to set up and maintain a chain of hundreds of posses <3.

This was a real life friend, I should add. Someone I'd known for over 10 years! True friends dont let friends buy Hels. On topic id have to say that my worst experience was seeing an alliance i had been part of for a while collapse around me. Failure cascades are never particularly fun.

MSC Darklord Minmatar Shadow Company	Posted - 2010.08.19 11:20:00 - [15] First time in 0.0, have ATUK camp slam torps into my omen and getting insta podded due to splash damage from torps and losing a set of +3 implants. __________________________ Originally by: CCP Tuxford my bad. Rest assured I'm being ridiculed by my co-workers. Said after a 60 second shut down notice that was then canceled.
Aera Aiana Amarr	Posted - 2010.08.19 11:28:00 - [16] I'd say the UI is the worst experience in EVE. There should be a global ban on nested context menus:) -
Hari Markkus Freelancing Corp Confederation of Independent Corporations	Posted - 2010.08.19 12:05:00 - [17] Reading the thread "Quarterly Economic Newsletter Q2-2010 PVP curious number..." on this very forum. I could feel my brain seeping out of my ears.

It's right, and I'll keep spanking them for it. After reading the entirety of that dev blog I still cannot see where you're coming from. Would you mind actually confirming your argument with quotes etc. that show that CCP have abandoned Eve for 18 months?

Would you mind actually confirming your argument with quotes etc. that show that CCP have abandoned Eve for 18 months? If you insist. Some gems from the last CSM minutes : It was mentioned by CCP that the data does not seem to support that polished quality sells better than new features. CCP stated that once Incarna and planetary interaction with its link to Dust are fully implemented, focus will probably shift far more towards improvement of existing features. The CSM suggested a dedicated 'polish team' to be established, with players being informed as to what they intend to work on during each expansion. CCP¦s answer to that is that there will be no polish patrol team for the next 2-3 expansions even though players feel there should be. CCP stated that FW is not a priority and no FW-related changes will be considered until after Incarna and Dust. A specific Low Sec expansion is not on the 18 month plan The winter expansion will focus on polish of existing features, mainly planetary interaction, and preparation for coming expansions. The aim is to include new character modeling, which involves new technology and new artwork. CSM remained unconvinced of CCPs commitment to excellence, even after Nathan's arguments were heard. CSM firmly stated its belief that CCP is on the wrong track in directing their development power into new things that the players have no faith in while acknowledging that the old things need attention. Regarding the 'damage control' Dev Blog : Thinly disguised team working on stuff for another MMO : Incarna (9 teams, approximately 70 developers) Stuff I couldn't care less about : Dust 514/EVE link (1 team, approximately 7 developers) EVE Gate (1 team, approximately 10 developers) I had planned on using them to fix fleet lag but was talked out of it - Epic Damage Control Fail Total : 87 devs working on useless crap vs REAL EVE stuff In-space features (3 teams, approximately 22 developers) The others! (4 teams, approximately 15 developers) Total : 37 devs working on EVE proper I've read every blog since then and the (few remaining) devs working on EVE do fine work. But nowhere does CCP say they will allocate more resources to EVE. If more than half your devs are working on Sims X, Farmville Y and COD Z instead of your core business, i.e. EVE I call abandonment a fair description. It's CCP's money so they can do what they want with it. But I paid it, so I feel justified in expressing my opinion on how they use it. Sol: A microwarp drive? In a battleship? Are you insane? They arenÆt built for this! Clear Skies - The Movie
Cuchulain Spartan	Posted - 2010.08.19 13:47:00 - [20] Got podded will drunk, updated my clone straight away but picked a cheap model clone by mistake then got podded an hour later haha. Few days later I couldnt figure out why my I couldnt fly my Golem, oh ya, BS 5 was gone lol I was a cranky fella that day
BrundleMeth Caldari Temporal Mechanics	Posted - 2010.08.19 14:13:00 - [21] Originally by: Louis deGuerre It's CCP's money so they can do what they want with it. Exactly Quote: But I paid it, so I feel justified in expressing my opinion on how they use it. Completely irrelevent. It's their money now and opinions are meaningless to them. Kind of like I work for my company and they pay me but just try to let the company "give me their opinion" on how I should spend it. Pure idiocy...

Then I guess im fully justified in calling your opinion selfish and moronic then arent I. By the way I bolded the part where you really start talking utter *******s. A full third of your dev staff does not = abandonment even on a major project like EVE. CCP have never said that EVE would be the only project they ever worked on and god forbid they should acutally try to expand their own market share by developing new concepts and making a game for a platform they dont currently gain anything from. The fact that you dont care about it doesnt magically make it a bad thing for EVE, nor does it make it a bad business decision for CCP. http://desusig.crumplecorn.com/sig.php
