Calathea Sata State War Academy	Posted - 2011.04.09 23:53:00 - [1] Dear CCP, I'm quitting your failboat
Calathea Sata State War Academy	Posted - 2011.04.10 00:03:00 - [2] Originally by: Mortania I posted this elsewhere, but opening the old forums is sort of pointless. Other than posting fail boat and other lulz. Anything of consequence seems of little merit. It's like going back to bang your ex or something. It feels good and exciting at first, but then you realize that it's a completely pointless exercise because there's no future in it. I think that's the whole point

Calathea Sata State War Academy	Posted - 2011.04.10 00:43:00 - [5] Originally by: CCP Wrangler It has been an interesting weekend so far. Our shiny new forums havenÆt worked quite as expected and they have been going up and down a few times. We have opened up our trusted old forums for your posting pleasure and we will be keeping the new forums down until they can be sorted out. There will be more information on this on Monday. We apologize for any inconvenience this may have caused you and we thank you for your patience and understanding. CCP needs to apologize for throwing out untested unfinished unpolished rubbish at customers as well, to a community that is so dedicated to your company's product and expecting nothing but excellence and deliverance, this is an insult.
Calathea Sata State War Academy	Posted - 2011.04.10 00:57:00 - [6] Apology accepted. CCP now please prove your sincerity by your actions. Excellence. Deliverance.
Calathea Sata State War Academy	Posted - 2011.04.10 01:37:00 - [7] Originally by: Miilla Originally by: Calathea Sata Apology accepted. CCP now please prove your sincerity by your actions. Excellence. Deliverance. I'm waiting to see it on the CCP YouTube channel... in HD. The corruption that is now present within CCP is not just a temporary illness but a defect that is manifested deep from a more fundamental level of managements/how the company is run/how the top levels decide how the game is going to roll out. We customers are not stupid, in fact, we can be many times cleverer than the staff in CCP (see the recent forum drama) and we all know what we signed up for. There is a limit of our patience. There is a limit of our tolerance. CCP promised 18 months until the phasing out of "EVE beta" (aka the dream game) we said ok, we wait. CCP rolled out empty frameworks of features we said ok because CCP surely is going to polish it. At this point, all is fine, because we still think CCP is actually a competent company that is really going to push out the polished stuff eventually. However this forum drama have proven, at least to me, that they are just a bunch of conceptual visionaries that have grand ideas but no clear goal and no ability to deliver it. 75,000 man hours producing this kind of forum that has no BASIC security, has bad codings/features not ironed out after two beta tests that are IMMEDIATELY improved by some scripts written by players, has a "like" function that serves absolutely NO function and is proven to be a lagsause/obviously a bad idea to begin with/a lolfeature that has GOT to be removed some day or other. Really? Excellence, deliverance, with the current ways of CCP, they are impossiblilities. This is a very obvious conclusion from this episode of epic forum fail. Now with CCP proven to be without excellence and deliverance, the 18 months promise immediately doesn't seem so attractive or even FEASABLE anymore. Incarna will be walking in your own room. Dust will come out with only 2 maps initially and 2 guns from 2 of the 4 races, and no orbital strike. 18 months they will start saying there is too much broken features in EVE that they are simply going to reinvent them all making it a totally different game, and will happen only 36 months later. EVE is dead. Not now, not soon. But unless CCP change their ways of doing things, all the possibilities, all the potentials, the grand visions of an ultimate sci-fi, the epic 1000 ships lag-free battle everyone dreamed about, the exciting individual features that can be fun for all types of players... they do not seem so much of a realistic probability anymore. Regain our faith CCP. I do not wish to see such a great internet sci-fi simulator in the future getting crushed by incompetance and poor management of its mother company. We all want to see the day coming. But you guys are the ones that need to reconsolidate among yourselves. I hope this message can serve as a gentle slap in the face for CCP, and wake up the dreaming giant within you to build us that untimate galatic kingdom that we see in our dreams. *the statistics are probably wrong but they are not the mainpoint here.

Calathea Sata State War Academy	Posted - 2011.04.10 02:16:00 - [9] Originally by: David Hassan Eve Online, greatest vaporware ever sold. How many 'expansions' have we gotten now that are entirely broken upon launch? -Faction Warfare -Dominion Sov mechanics (not just bad, but didnt work for weeks after launch) -PI and Facebook faux content -Incursions CCP is Committed to something, but it sure as hell isn't quality. At least you put back up working forums after the new ones fell apart at the seams for 2 days. I guess that whole 'testing the new forums' thing was just your devs pretending to work. They are either lazy or incompetent, which is it? Just keep pouring more money into advertising, the actual quality of services rendered doesn't matter at all. Also, funny as hell that you advertised the new forums with a really th'uper gay unicorn banner. Honesty in advertising. This. It's a proven and undeniable track record that CCP has shown us over YEARS. This path leads to nowhere.
Calathea Sata State War Academy	Posted - 2011.04.10 03:18:00 - [10] Originally by: Habaticus Thanks for being proactive on this CCP. Many companies would have to tried fix on the move to avoid the trollfest. Kudos to you and your hardworking people. They don't deserve kudos. Kudos are for people who can deliver excellence, they cannot.

Calathea Sata State War Academy	Posted - 2011.04.10 03:58:00 - [11] CCP broke my heart

Calathea Sata State War Academy	Posted - 2011.04.10 04:30:00 - [13] Originally by: Spyke BlackIce I usually keep my arse out of whine-fests, troll parades, and general rock throwing, but this fiasco warrants grabbing my pitchfork and joining the mob if only because of the fact that after the two test runs of the new forums, they were released not only with HUGE, wide-open security problems, but little if any of the testers' feedback was heeded. I took part in the first test run (unfortunately I couldn't find enough time due to RL issues to help with the second) but when the forums opened, I could only find a miniscule few examples of the user feedback actually being used. Why bother with tests CCP, if our input is thrown out and disregarded along with the garbage? It is becoming obvious that someone in upper management doesn't have a clue. They want their new toys - the way it was designed, regardless of flaws and lack of features - out the door and to hell with what the customer wants, needs, envisions, or finds lacking, and worse, to hell with the silly 'polished' idea. "Get it out so that we can move onto the next new toy and we'll finish fixing it later (maybe)", seems to be this person's (or persons') motto. I actually have a lot of respect for most of the dev teams at CCP, and I applaud their apology and acknowledgement of the problem here as well as their dropping back and punting the old forums into service again. Many companies (no cough S.O.E cough names here) would have taken the stoic, we-know-best-and-you-couldn't-grasp-the-issues route by simply reopening the old forums with a message along the lines of "Due to technical issues, we will be using the old forums until further notice." and that would be that. I'm not implying that the web team should not be tarred-and-feathered for this MAJOR coding ineptitude they called a forum, but I seriously believe the issue began and ended in the top echelon of management. Something this bad quite frankly should not have happened, not even in the devs' worse nightmares. The issue HAD to be a time/deadline/personnel squeeze. Plain and simple. __________________________ ~~~Spyke Liked
Calathea Sata State War Academy	Posted - 2011.04.10 11:30:00 - [14] I too along with many others (in fact MOST of the forum users) would like to keep the old forums.
Calathea Sata State War Academy	Posted - 2011.04.10 13:18:00 - [15] Originally by: Ellen Woods Please, keep the new forum offline forever. The new forum is pain to read, oversized portraits, bad layout... This old forum is much smoother and comfortable to read, and imo it matters. Agreed. Now that I have tried both of them I can honestly say I will be much more happier with the old forums because of all the reasons people have stated. Also the two minute timer does a good job of keeping the posts more intellectual and free from redundant jubberish. Also Verdana > Arial. Keep the old forums pls.
Calathea Sata State War Academy	Posted - 2011.04.10 13:51:00 - [16] Originally by: Akita T Originally by: CCP Sreegs My job is security therefore that's what I blog about. The reason we shut down the forums was security related. That aside, which version are you more comfortable using personally, this one or the "new" one ? And why ? "I like the old one more, obviously, but I cannot say it because you guys will start taking my words as 'CCP's' and use it againt my company, and that will get me fired!"
Calathea Sata State War Academy	Posted - 2011.04.10 13:56:00 - [17] Originally by: Miilla You all got what you wanted, the old fourms back, why are you all still whining? CCP is killing EVE

My job is response, not reviewing every single line of code that gets written. Hm. CCP Sreegs has some explainations to do.
Calathea Sata State War Academy	Posted - 2011.04.10 14:59:00 - [19] Originally by: Helicity Boson Edited by: Helicity Boson on 10/04/2011 14:54:40 You're also being lied to. While your customer data over at CCP was indeed safe, the new forums put everyone that visited them at risk. Saying we were completely safe is, demonstrably, FALSE. I've written up a blog post on the subject here: http://www.machine9.net/blog/?p=592 After posting this, I suspect this will mean goodbye for me, so let me just preemptively state that I will miss you all, and for all your flaws you ARE the best game community in the world. You are not alone in the escape pod. Get onboard before the failboat sinks!

Guess not as yer sposed to be ***in me ofs but all yer doin is making me laugh lol so who fails in that case? Guess its both of us lol Not at all, I always win and I'm always right, read my bio. puts up a sticker of troll warning*
Calathea Sata State War Academy	Posted - 2011.04.10 23:26:00 - [22] Originally by: Sullen Skoung I found something more fail than CCP's fiasco what is it
Calathea Sata State War Academy	Posted - 2011.04.10 23:39:00 - [23] Oh I see it now
Calathea Sata State War Academy	Posted - 2011.04.11 04:55:00 - [24] Originally by: Yuki Kulotsuki You know soundwave used to be goon director too right? Here's most of the reply to the question if goons are trying to break eve. Link. I'm suprised that I'm not entirely suprised at the conspiracies hinted above.
Calathea Sata State War Academy	Posted - 2011.04.11 05:05:00 - [25] Well Goons or no Goons I think EVE is already on its way into the abyss. It's jumped off the edge and slow motion flying in mid air now.
Calathea Sata State War Academy	Posted - 2011.04.11 06:34:00 - [26] But but EVE IS REAL
Calathea Sata State War Academy	Posted - 2011.04.11 14:50:00 - [27] It is all CCP's fault. They know this themselves so they put down their new creation for good.
Calathea Sata State War Academy	Posted - 2011.04.11 23:05:00 - [28] Originally by: CCP Sreegs Originally by: Elyssa MacLeod Apparently they chose to publish the CSM blog over his blog lol that strikes me as damn funny Like even they dont give a **** about informing us to what happened cause we already KNOW thanks to Helicity Boson I just had it published... Confimed

Calathea Sata State War Academy	Posted - 2011.04.11 23:28:00 - [31] They need another 72,000 man hour... to fix the problems they have created. So here goes another 18 months!

There were no multiple threads, your argument is invalid. INSERT COINS
