Adophnil Amarr Dark Reality Unified INVICTUS ALLIANCE	Posted - 2011.06.24 01:01:00 - [1] Originally by: CCP Pann The newsletter was not fake. I guess this is how it feels when someone reads your diary, something you hadn't intended anyone else to see. Not to deflect the heat but to explain why what I'm about to say, I wasn't involved with writing it. The only reason I mention that is because I am not going to presume to know the minds of the people who did have comments in there. I am not going to throw people I love under the bus or to the lions or whatever. I can't/won't answer questions about what they said or why they said it. Our newsletters are written as a means to bring about discussion (that sometimes can even become heated debate) among our coworkers. That's really all I can say about it. I am not a game designer. I'm a mouthpiece. I'll admit it. By the time I get involved, the decisions have been made. Not making excuses for myself, just explaining. Then you are completely incapable of doing any damage control, so why even try? Your first response/post is a laughable joke. The rage is not about the Noble Exchange or the prices in it. The mere fact that you would suggest such a thing is exactly why I have gone from zero bitterness and an avid fan of this game to full time bittervet instantly. GREED IS GOOD (And the biggest issue that we have is that your products are overpriced? They should cost less so more of us can buy them? LOL). The problem is the insulting blatant lie about microtransactions for non vanity items. Broken promises and an utter disregard for thousands and thousands of posts and customers who made it abundantly clear that they didn't want to see that sort of garbage in their game. GTFO.

Do you understand how we might be a teensy bit angry about that? About being treated like imbeciles, children who'll lap up any shiny as long as it's presented properly and introduced slowly enough? And most importantly: Do you understand how, on a basic level, this destroys the promise of EVE Online? Quoting myself so you see it. Quoting Reed so that you'll see it. Can we make it more obvious?

Adophnil Amarr Dark Reality Unified INVICTUS ALLIANCE	Posted - 2011.06.24 03:25:00 - [5] I'm still in shock and disbelief that I could be so absolutely flipped from CCP Whiteknight who supported Incarna merely for the fact that iterations of it would be good for Eve as a whole in terms of keeping and attracting new players to the place of bitterness that I now reside in. Microtransactions, lying, failure. If they go through with this I will laugh when their company burns.
Adophnil Amarr Dark Reality Unified INVICTUS ALLIANCE	Posted - 2011.06.24 07:30:00 - [6] No matter how much we scream, you as a company have made it very clear what road will be traveled when it's all said and done. I have absolutely no faith whatsoever anymore than anything you say can be taken even remotely at face value. I'm thoroughly not looking forward to reading your devblog post tomorrow only because it seems so clear that your going to ram MT down our throat no matter whether we like it or not. Threadnaught = Roadblock. That is all. Carry on with the rage.
