Sarina Rhoda	Posted - 2011.06.15 16:51:00 - [1] My understanding might be completely wrong but from what im reading you only need the license and only have to pay ccp if you plan on charging people for the 3rd party service. Ie sites that run on donations or offer their services for free do not need a license and do not have to pay the $99 fee... At least i think this is what all this means :S (please please please correct me if i am wrong)
Sarina Rhoda	Posted - 2011.06.15 17:11:00 - [2] A lot of the 3rd party apps are what make this game actually playable and enjoyable :S evemon killboards eft evefiles If I had to start paying for these as well as my subscription fee I don't think I would bother personally :S Its almost impossible to play the game without eft for example (unless you want to spend billions on random mods until you get your ship to fit properly). It annoys me because stuff like eft should be something ccp included into the game rather than relying on 3rd party developers!
Sarina Rhoda	Posted - 2011.06.15 23:19:00 - [3] Edited by: Sarina Rhoda on 15/06/2011 23:19:49 So you are charging people who actualy cover up your mistakes and make this game enjoyable and playable... GJ A list of tools that i think CCP messed up on by not having somthing similar in game include: EFT Dotlan Evemon killboard If had to pay for these tools to make my game work as well as my supscription fees i would de-sub in a heart beat. also QFT Originally by: You are charging people who work for free to make your game better you asshats Originally by: Chribba ok seriously, I've like Ctrl+A, backspace this post 5 times now, tbh I'm out of words. I would like to know how many 3rd party developer/sites are doing it for the **ing awesome income it generates?! Seriously, this if anything WILL kill development of sites and services. As a creator of sites/applications/services for New Eden since well over 6 years now, I can tell you that I have never once created something with the goal to make money off it, this whole thing about needing a license to make something for the community is just ing **ed! Just hearing this makes my interest/will for developing things crash. This is not about the $99, this is about how you want to charge me because I want to do something for the community out of my free will - does that sense? Do you feel I am stealing your IP, making massive amounts of money off your IP? Then tell me straight up, don't try to bind it into some fluffy clouds and call it "great news". Every IPO in Market Discussions will now require a license, since after all, it's donations. Corporations should get a license too, I mean having a corp tax of >0.0% could be seen as a donation to the corporation... And yeah, I guess me and everyone else with an EVE IP tattoo will need a license, I mean, some other geek may think it's awesome and want to buy me a beer... I'm just very sad to see this even being discussed, talk about a punch in the face. Don't get me wrong, I see your point of EVE IP, and yes I can agree that it may need to be controlled to some extent, but this is not the way. Not by far. /c Originally by:** You need us more than we need you. Do NOT charge the people who are covering up your incompetence. Food for thought CCP........
