I have been playing Eve for many years now, on and off, and have always held a very special place for Eve. I have watched many alliance tournaments, on occasion while unsubbed even, just to witness the awesomeness that has historically been CPP and the amazing virtual world they have created.
I spent 8 yrs in the US Military, so you will see many breaks in my sub from deployments, but I have always came back to Eve. I have been spending the last couple yrs going to school as a Computer Engineer, and even thought about aggressively attempting to land a job with CCP, as everything I have ever seen (UNTIL now) has been everything I could want to find in a company. Watching footage from alliance tournaments, reading the forum posts about the Fanfest attendees, all of this has always entranced me and fueled my genuine love for CCP.
All of this has changed today..... Every single thing I loved about CCP was thrown in my face like a used "Woman's Sanitary Wipe" after being violated over and over... It saddens me greatly, and I now know that CCP is no longer the amazing thing I once dreamed to be a part of. It is now the exact thing I want to have as little to do with as possible, ESPECIALLY at a professional level.
A part of me wants to think the very thing CCP wants us all to think, it will all blow over and everything will slowly go back to normal (Remember, time is what CCP wants right now, to pacify the crowds). But fundamentally, I am completely disgusted by CCP, and I will never speak of them with the appreciation and love I previously have.
If any of you think MTs are going away, just know, the discussions CCP will have from now on about MTs will not be wether or not to have them, only how slowly and more cleverly can they introduce them. The battle could possibly be won here, but the war will most certainly be lost. How many can CCP milk and pacify in the process? Only time will tell.
The SOLE reason for this entire post, and my distaste, is the leaked views CCP now has, and their shady, sneaky attempts to change their entire business model, which in turn reveals the true character of the corporate professional bull ****ters they have now become.
