I really can't bring myself to login after reading that...
Really considering un-subscribing both my accounts, and i'm sure other people are as well after this...
what have you done to our game ccp? OUR GAME! WE PAY YOUR ****ING WAGES!!!
Quote: You can develop a friendship by "Spending" your time, or you can pay to get the same benefits that friendship would otherwise allow
This is probably the most telling statement of the whole document... paying for something instead of working for it?
OUT OF GAME STATUS SHOULD NOT BE ABLE TO AFFECT IN GAME MECHANICS! You're lucky you got away with the plex system for so long...
Eve is no longer art... it's a profit making exercise

Originally by: Hans Jagerblitzen GASP you found me out. My secret identity (CCP FANBOI) has been uncovered. Y'all are geniuses.
I was waiting for someone to accuse me of that :)
Here's a dirty little secret - everyone else who isn't ****ed at Incarna and posts in support of CCP is a fellow CCP alt. They just dont have the ballz to whistleblow like I do.
Sooooo.....now that its out of the bag and my time is limited before CCP fires me for revealing my true identity, I will now host Q&A session until the moment of my banning from this thread and forum.
Ask away, community, and I shall leak all our master plans!! (Limited time only....price is 1 plex per requested leak. You can contract all your plex, with your question or desired leaked document, to this toon)
Reported for impersonating a CCP employee.
Against the rules.
LOL

Originally by: Pace eGuerra An interesting read.
Based on my own experiences with EVE players I'd say we play EVE to get away from life, not to extend it. You, dear CCP, trade in TRUST. We, up until now, have trusted you to maintain our world of escape. If you turn our world into yet another place where we are encouraged or enticed or chased to part with money for items that we don't care about you'll turn us off big time.
I (and all of the players I know) do not play EVE to gain some level of validation. Most of us have extremely validating careers and lifestyles. In fact, many of us are working in industries that are typically populated with exactly the type of people who turn their back on that sort of "buy your self esteem" crap. Just take a look at the average EVE player (fan fest, EVE TV, etc. etc.). We are not into vanity items. We're actually quite happy with a black t-shirt and a pair of jeans. Ok, we might have a nice watch, car, house and some super hot gaming PC and a lovely woman on our arm but generally we're not your average sheep-like consumer who wants to look like they just dropped out of Second Life.
For us there is no rush in owning a virtual leather jacket and I doubt many of us would want an RL equivalent. The rush comes from making that perfect intercept, or devising a strategy that manages to take out that annoying Drake gang, or predicting a rush on a given mineral and making a mint out of the market. It's about taking out that POS, seeing your Corp name on a station or watching your alliance colours spread through the influence map.
It has bugger all to do with anything but getting away from life, having a beer, swapping crude jokes on TS and blowing **** up. And we do this in the rough, unforgiving universe that is EVE. We won't buy into vanity items so don't bother please.
well said... structural engineer over here, making more money than any of the ccp devs, (if money's the language ccp are talking now). As soon as creative content is overtly monetized... its inherent quality diminishes... this is the case for everything.
Eve will die if you go through with the plans in those documents... if not through players unsubscribing? then through the failure of the ingame market when industrialists are royally screwed over.

CCP 1st Post No. 1549 :p
Also... most of that document is based around the (false) assumption that ccp have made saying they sell "Experiences and Identity"... they do NOT sell us identity... they sell us Experiences... and unfortunately for them... they'll struggle to EVER monetise the experiences we have with our corp mates... Gaming guilds are more than prepared to switch games and cancel subs and one would hope that a major alliance drops sov in game over this, to completely submit to the metagame this has become.
