We are contacting you to remind you that according to our records you ONLY have 18 hours left on your non-recurring subscription to EVE Online.
Yup, and guess what, five years of playing a beta have been enough, the last forum mega **** up exemplify what CCP is, a company good at making promises and awful at delivering results. I never found the game genuinely good, but kept playing for so long because there was still hope for the amazing promises to realize.
I have no more hope, at one point you got to admit that the kid with lots of potential is just another failure and cut your losses. CCP got no grasp whatsoever on their game and they still seem to think that piling unfinished feature on top of each other makes a better game. It doesn't.
There seem to be a bit of lip service now toward iterating a bit more often, but very little in the way of acts. Ship balance is still a joke (and seemingly no one is even working on it anymore), faction warfare is still very broken (ditto, anyone is even supposed to look at it?), living in a WH is a pain and expose you to massive corp thievery because there is no proper way to bolt stuff down while still permitting a decent functionality, the sovereignty mechanics are a joke and it takes an alliance imploding for the map to evolve...
It's just a few glaring example, I could go on with their PvE (in what other game do you hear of people falling asleep playing it so much?) and with their misguided economic interventions (nice technetium boost, either ex Bob devs took refuge in the North in drove or they are completely incompetent).
Oh and yes, they spend most of their ressources on Incarna for which their seem to be no real gameplay planned...
Would more feature have kept me in game? Unlikely. Would the same feature set with a better realization have kept me in? Definitely. So close yet so far to being awesome.
So what's the message of this bittervet for the general community? If you like the game as it is, good for you, keep playing and paying. If you only stay for fear of being behind SP wise when the game finally turns awesome, you may as well leave now. I've been there, it just won't happen, look for other games there are plenty around.

CIHYS?
Secondly, bittervet signing in. Plex is your friend, I'm not paying any money personally to CCP anymore, so I don't have to feel like I'm wasting actual cash on the game anymore. Secondly, the thousand papercuts thing has actually gotten me quite interested, to me it genuinely sounds like there might be a change a'commin.
Either way, I'm gonna plex it out til Incarna hits, and see what happens after that inevitable massive resource sink plateau's and stuff can start happening again.
How many other games do you know that decided to build an entirely new graphics engine for their game, and release it with nary a flutter of the the subscription prices.

Had CCP focused on finishing and improving their existing content instead of piling crap higher and higher they'd still enjoy my 3 CC subscribed accounts. They don't, I don't believe they ever will and no, you can't have my stuff.

You're arguing with (or replying to) an automatic message (like arguing with spam email... or with your computer screen).

The OP fails to give specific examples to build his argument around. So I feel I lack the information to decide whether to ask for his stuff, or sympathise.

lol no, I actually cancelled after that blog http://www.eveonline.com/devblog.asp?a=blog&bid=832 in December (and yes nothing since to make me change my mind), but was on a 6 month sub that was renewed shortly before. Have been suiciding ships ever since. The fit was actually meant for 0.0 sec farming, landing straight on that gang was unexpected...

THIS was your undoing. Why would you play a game you HOPE will be good some day? That's just...well...dumb, to be blunt. One should play a game he finds fun. Regardless your hard work, it's just a game, not an investment.
There are too many good games to waste time not having fun.

Here we go, another "CCP messed up the forums for a day, now I don't like them" thread.
I've been playing since 2003, I've been though it all: all of EVE's expansions, CCP's **** ups, and insurmountable lag. And you know what? I ****ing love them for it.
For all of the endless *****ing in the last month, no one has given CCP credit that they're due. They are, hands down, the most dedicated company to their MMO. Eight years of "EVE Is Dying" and not one person has been proven right.
Now granted, I wish they would do something about FW and Incursions, and even revamp mining like they said they would three years ago, but those details aren't going to make or break my continued experience.
To all the whiners these past few weeks (I'm looking at you Sata) CCP is doing something right, and has been for the last few years. At least when they make a mistake, they own up to it (as if anyone but the forum *****s gave a crap about the new forum anyway).
Goodbye Lubomir, I sincerely hope you enjoy your life beyond EVE, and do us all a favor before you go: Take the other whiners with you and let me, and everyone else, enjoy the bloody forums again.
I Mad.
TL;DR gtfo of my forums.

I stopped actively playing eve because a better pvp game came out.
Who would have thought the game that finally dragged a good chunk of the pewers away from eve doesn't even have spaceships in it.
Saying that I still have my two oldest accounts active and are skilling up for when ccp finally get past this carebear expansion phase and get back to making eve the premier pew pew mmo once again.
Long Live Eve.

You should review my posting history . CCP messing up the forums was just another example of their inability to deliver anything working properly. The whiners will leave the forums when either there is less to whine about or they all unsubscribed in disgust, whichever come first.
Anyway my sub now got minutes to go, so it will be my last post till I start to get those five days offers.

I get the feeling you were also 'subbed' out of the 5 day reactivate mail list.

This. More and more people are starting to see the failboat under the skin of a Titanic.

But will it be enough to actually make the game finally get a negative growth index?
Sure I and many many others have jumped the 'fail boat' for another game atm but even with all the scores of eve players I run into in that game they almost to a man still have an active account.
They, just like me, are simply waiting for CCP to finally finish the game so we can all come back.
