"CCP will never do micro transaction"
I've seen this quoted in a number of threads today, but i can't find any links or references to where it was said, all i was able to find was a statement by CCP Shadow on 2010.10.08 that read:
Quote: In fact, to this date, I have not been involved in discussions/decision-making processes about whether or not CCP will ever use microtransactions in EVE Online, how such a system would be implemented, and so on
Linkage
Can someone show me the link to back up this claim that CCP lied to us???

'We do not have plans too' is not the same as 'We will never'. You weren't lied too at all. _______________________________________

OP provided the link.
You know, it baffles me how some people will defend CCP when it is clear as day.
"Our Business Model is not changing .. you have nothing to be worried about ..." Sounds like a lie to me.

While you may be technically correct that CCP Shadow didn't lie to us. CCP did ..
The most generous I can give you is that they promising something to us .. then changed their mind and didn't tell us about it till they were caught.
While that may not be a "untrue statement" .. i.e. a lie. It is most certainly BAD FAITH .. try that with your spouse and see how it goes. "I promised by marrying you not to frack any other women .. but then I changed my mind 2 months into the marriage .. I didn't lie because I never said anything after I changed my mind."
CCP alts are getting pathetic.

Sounds like one year was enough to change their minds about not wanting to change their model. Or sounds like Shadow was unaware of any plans to change the model. Or any other number of things that amount to something unpleasant, but are still not lies. _

If anyone feels like digging, they could always find CCP Wranglers post from about two years ago where he outright promised us that CCP was never going down the microtransaction tree.
I remember it mostly because I was trolling the thread it came up in. _____________________________________ Haruhiist since December 2008

You can't argue with apologists. Fanboyizm is a disease of the mind. ... If you like choice please support this topic in the Assembly Hall. Thanks.

A clever choice of words. All he has to do is say "I didn't know it was going on" or "we didn't have any plans then but the plan changed" and hes off the hook. Hell all your quote says is that he wasn't involved in a decision making process.. not that one wasn't being decided by other people.

For an elected representative of the community, you do a remarkably bad job at it.

Pointing out the factual accurateness of a statement and its structure is not fanboyism get out. Get out.

From the same post you linked:
Originally by: CCP Shadow I work in Community, so I don't call the shots about how CCP operates or how the company adapts to changes in the industry, and thus I make no promises about what the future holds.
Originally by: CCP Shadow Were CCP to finalize some plans to implement microtransactions in EVE Online, there would be a dev blog or official announcement. As it stands though, I'm unaware of any such plans.
This seems pretty clear and CCP has followed this. They announced there would be MT on vanity items. Nothing in the leaked internal newsletter revealed a finalised plan on MT for anything else in EVE, only internal debate.

Technically it is lie.
It doesnt matter if you change youre mind if you say you will/wont do one thing then try to do it you lied.

It's not a lie, but it's not honest either.
+ 1500 votes on MT in EVE | NO 79.03% | YES 5.02% | COSMETIC ONLY 11.23% | OTHER 4.73% |

As are claims by angry Eve players that anyone defending CCP or even pointing out basic facts must be a CCP alt.

Agreed, it's not 'honest' but it isn't necessarily a 'lie'. Things change, CCP isn't a static company nor are its philosophies. _______________________________________

To be fair to CCP, he's still correct, as there's nothing micro about the transactions they've implemented.

Stop CRYING already.
It is optional.
Oh right, you are all secretly ****ed because you can't afford the eye piece.
Never thought I would see such cry babies in EVE, some of you need to go play WoW.
