It's a pretty fair assessment. Some folks are having issue not being able to dictate how CCP runs their company, and thinks that taking the appropriate step (when not satisfied) of leaving is somehow important or noteworthy.
Business as usual, just a higher entertainment value than normal.
heh, thanks dad. I thought you left for World of Tanks months ago. So basically, the way I see it is that people are really ****ed off because they're looking at all the information as it was released in the last couple days as opposed to the last few months like it actually happened. Silly kids with their pitchforks. I hope everyone who is saying they've cancelled their subscriptions actually has. We'll have alot less crybabies around. good game

I will just leave this factoid here... For all those still asking questions about VANITY ITEMS AND Mictotransactions... HINT: we passed that stage ages ago
The reason why CCP are not ANSWERING your questions now, and responded the way they did, by ignoring the issue is...
THEY ARE STILL EXECUTING ON THEIR TIME TABLE... their time table does not have disclosure on these issues at this time.
That is how CLOSED CCP management is, they do it their way, nothing interrupts their schedule, that was committed to.
THE MT EXECUTION TIMETABLE IS STILL IN EFFECT.

It's been one hell of a ride through space. I've enjoyed every minute of it. However -unless this turns out to be some cruel sadistic joke my 5 accounts run out a few weeks of which they will not be reinstated.
For the ones who don't quite grasp why so many are upset... before you judge let me suggest a task that you complete before you go on a rant of how stupid I must be:
Go, train up the skills to research, mine, refine and manufacture a capital class hull. Go out, mine the ores required to be refined into minerals for said ship. Then... take the minerals and your research capital components bpc/bpos pop them in the cooker. Once the components are built pop them and your hull bpo/bpc in the cooker.
Once you've done all of the above watch out! Someone with more RL money will come and gank your ass with the one they just bought through the Aurum store. What.. you can't buy a ship that way? Not yet you can't.... not yet! Greed is an amazing thing and when CCP sees everyone buying monocles and dumbass shirts etc they'll have you some shiney new ships in the shopping center soon enough.
I'm just a 2006 player... what do I know anyway.
P.S. CCP you lost my 5 accounts unless this is redirected or you say it's all been a big joke. It's not fair to the long time customers who've paid your bills, we want our sandbox back!

(strt)
We live in interesting times; in fact CCP is the kind of company that if things get repetitive we instinctively crank it up a notch. That, we certainly have done this week. First of we have Incarna, an amazing technological and artistic achievement. A vision from years ago realized to a point that no one could have imaged but a few months ago. It rolls out without a hitch, is in some cases faster than what we had before, this is the pinnacle of professional achievement. For all the noise in the channel we should all stand proud, years from now this is what people will remember.
But we have done more, not only have we redefined the production quality one can apply to virtual worlds with the beautiful Incarna but we have also defined what it really means to make virtual reality more meaningful than real life when it comes to launching our new virtual goods currency, Aurum.
Naturally, we have caught the attention of the world. Only a few weeks ago we revealed more information about DUST 514 and now we have done it again by committing to our core purpose as a company by redefining assumptions. After 40 hours we have already sold 52 monocles, generating more revenue than any of the other items in the store.
This we have done after months of research by a group of highly competent professionals, soliciting input and perspective from thought leaders and experts in and around our industry. We have communicated our intention here internally in very wide circles through the Virtual Economy Summit presentation at the GSM, our Fearless newsletter, sprint reviews, email lists and multiple other channels. This should not come as a surprise to anyone.
Currently we are seeing _very predictable feedback_ on what we are doing. Having the perspective of having done this for a decade, I can tell you that this is one of the moments where we look at what our players do and less of what they say. Innovation takes time to set in and the predictable reaction is always to resist change.
We went out with a decisive strategy on pricing and we will stay the course and not flip flop around or knee jerk react to the predictable. That is not saying nothing will change, on the contrary, in fact we know that success in this space is through learning and adapting to _what is actually happening_ and new knowledge gained in addition to what we knew before and expected.
All that said, I couldnGÇÖt be prouder of what we have accomplished as a company, changing the world is hard and we are doing it as so many times before! Stay the course, we have done this many times before.
(end)
Paging additional CCP Damage Control. You guys need to tell us are you going to sell in game advatage or not? Are you willing to sell Faction Standings, Skill Points T3 weapons and ammo?
I don't care of some morans wants to spend $60.00 and by and in game item that does not effect space combat, access to items ect, but if you are will to sell Skill Points Faction Standing and "new weapons" and "new ammo" That is where I am going to have a problem.
This is what the "community" is upset about and Zulu apparently either doesn't get it or doesn't care we have a problem with open the wallet up and make your I win button.
CCP I was looking forward to World of Darkness and I have played Eve for years, if you are not going to draw a line in the sand with what this new noble exchange will sell, then not only will I leave this game once you start selling items like skill points but you will have no chance of getting me into any other games either.

Do you really think they're about to wake up in an hour and have expected this to go away when they log in to work? That we'd just roll over and drop it?

Moraguth > let me get this timeline straight: internal newsletter debating pro/con of MT. Dev blog saying no MT for non-vanity items. Incarna - high monacle prices. hilmar Email predicting complaints/stay the course. zulu devblog doesn't answer questions. rioting.
I enjoyed the rioting.. And the laser show is working, I had a conversation with a nice guy undocking who was asking what was going on and informed him. He was in full support of what we were doing, I had to open a new convo with him on another character though as the one I was on originally got gagged by.. you guessed it, our favorite GM Horse.
Anyways, people are noticing, keep it up. I'll be back at it tomorrow I'm sure.
Orrr.. I'll be banned, and won't give a damn.
Get a brain CCP, aren't you already in financial trouble?? Won't losing our subscriptions hurt? Btw, we're big boys and girls.. we could handle it if all the mining bots were banned, we're the eve community, we're strong, stronger than you btw. Something for you to think about.
Just so you know, I'm definitely NOT on the side of the rioters. They're acting like children. 1- they're ignoring the facts. 2- they're being impatient. 3- they smell funny. 4- They're taking the theorizing and supposition of others to be fact, especially the conspiracy theory posts. Okay, maybe I lied about number three, but still. People need to grow up. good game

They did a survey and the results likely showed that even if they lost the anti MT people, they would make more money from the people that accept it than they loose in subs.

One of the really cool things about dropping my subscriptions is that, since this is the only online game I play, I won't have to put up with any more nimrods like you.

They don't expect it to go away in an hour. Or a day. They expect it to go away in a month, or two, or six, when there's more stuff to focus on and time has soothed the wound. And most people will. A lot of people will cry and whine, but most won't unsubscribe. Get your anger out now so that you can enjoy the game later when you decide you like it. There's not really any option for you as far as other MMOs, if EVE is your niche.

Well i partially agree with you . But we as human species are basically lower animals driven by fear. The whole hype started by some "strong" theories crafting to the point of break of CCP. Thats alone is quite productive for CCP to see where to stop or never go.
From sociology, wait for few years about 20. Since this will happen in Real World. Basically Middle-class being ****ed over so hard and for so long they giving up, once the "rulers" cross the line its GAME OVER.
And to repeat myself .. free those who get to high in "brainstorming" activities. Thanks in Advance CCP.

edit - i got rid of the obnoxious size and color.
I suppose it's not possible, in some strange universe, that the following facts have no bearing on the lack of a post: 1. It's summer 2. It's the weekend 3. they just released an expansion and might be taking vacation since i'd presume they weren't allowed to for the past month or so
I could go on, but the pitchfork holders won't listen to anything that doesn't answer their every burning desire immediately.
Yes, if the CCP employees worked the same hours as the people stoking the fires of these riots, things might be different. But I'm willing to bet they don't, and it's pretty unreasonable to expect them to. That's not to say I don't want answers too, but I'm not going to throw a temper tantrum like a twelve year old just to make my point.
Talk is cheap and Actions speak louder than words. good game
