Aurum is here to stay. The cycle here isn't changing soon.
That is too bad, because it's going to cost you your job.

That was not on purpose and I sincerely apologize for that. We've asked you guys to digest a lot of very quick changes and did a suboptimal job at walking beside you during the past month. Dev blogs and test servers and AT interviews and such didn't quite cut it for everything. There is NO contempt against our players.I've witnessed some extreme amounts of exhibited patience for the nastiest of the nasties who have threatened lives, engaged in character assassination and such--and that's because we as developers realize there are a lot of hurt/angry people out there.
It has nothing to do with walking besides us. And it has nothing to do with us not understanding.
It has everything to do with a cold, calculated scheme to turn "awesome spaceships" into "sustain our expensive drug habits at any cost"
Yes, I phrased that offensively, and yes I did that on purpose. Don't spin this Ned, it's not going to work. You (CCP) are on a path to just try to extract the absolute maximum amount of cash from us at any cost, with no regard for us, our feelings or your own ****ing original mission statement (read it on your corporate page)

I won't make excuses for those features we know are much wanted or the ones people want us to go back and "fix". Heck, I want some of them. Soundwave and Eyjo and Dropbear and TonyG and Fallout want them too. BUT, making and designing and creating a game isn't pick and choose, especially when it comes to introducing something like Incarna or devoting significant dev time to rewriting old code backbone so we can grow again in the future. We know the other stuff is wanted. We know Incarna is also wanted and are working towards what many of you have wanted out of it. It just takes time.
I call bull**** on this Eyjo and Soundwave only want money, they are part of team :awesome: and :graphs: that just live a self-masturbatory fantasy where they are rockstar gamedesigners.
They are just little failed John Romeros, and we know how that ended up.
I truly believe there is a lot of lovely people at CCP, dedicated and with vision. But you need to cut out the cancer before it kills you. And as you can probably tell, this week will determine if you have homes next summer.
Plan your next move very carefully, and divest yourself of corrupting elements.

I don't think that it's too late to save this special little den of internet spaceships and internet spaceship captains; however, this trend cannot go on forever and it has all the signs of fail cascade written all over it. Word.
CCP, your players really do care about you and about your game. It would just be nice if the feelings were returned. I could profess my love for each of you and really really mean it. Yes even you back there! But we all know its going to be more about showing you and not just saying it.
This is. your last chance.
Heads must roll. They should have rolled already when you released the abortions that are EVEgate and the new Forums. They should have rolled the moment you broke your "no MT ever promise" They should have rolled yesterday when you were celebrating your "amazing and above expectations launch" You are deluding yourselves, you buy your own publicity, but we no longer do.
I know you won't answer me, since I'm you big "troublemaker" but there you go.
Signed,
Helicity -****ing- Boson's Alt.
Needs quoting further for truth. Also Liang has my respect as good poster yada yada... you all know him. Came back to this ****storm from midsummer fest.
