Terminal Insanity Minmatar Convex Enterprises	Posted - 2011.06.27 23:12:00 - [2] Originally by: Yarrrrrhh Another very personal note: Thanks to the EVE sandbox for teaching me how to do stuff like this. Learned how to run a corporation in EVE, done the same IRL after that, now I get a shot at helping save CCP's own ass. i lol'd. No seriously, you learned how to run a corporation.... in eve online? Seriously? And you took the knowledge from running eve corps and applied it to real life? I hope this is a troll, because lol. also: Originally by: Terminal Insanity Should random videogamers be dishing out financial suggestions to a company that has managed to stay in business from the same product for over 7 years? Probably not. The last thing CCP needs is a bunch of spoiled brats telling them how to run their company. They've been successful so far. If you don't think they have, then what the **** are you still doing here?

I think CCP have actualy sold more monacles through people just wanting to troll the forums than through vanity. If there hadnt been such an upoar I don;t think anyone would have brought one, now owning a monocle is the equivalent of sticking 2 fingers up to the EVE community. A valid point. I initially was wary of the NeX Store, but after listening to the mindless drivel coming from this lot on the forum, i realized i am indeed above all of you silly fools, and bought myself a monocle to secure my place among the elite.
Terminal Insanity Minmatar Convex Enterprises	Posted - 2011.06.28 01:04:00 - [4] Originally by: Josh Bolder I am a producer and very often sort out money for new films and completion of budgets in excess of 20 million pounds. I have not seen this supposed annual report, but you all seem to be speculating on a cash flow forecast. Which may have many varying aspects, not to forget that the engines (Carbon) and code, itself will be sold to other markets e.g. the quake engine or the Unreal Engine and many more. Also the company most likely have A class Shares and B class Shares for investors in each project, with each project also being supported by other projects and products. Plus the projects will also have completion bonds. The loan itself will already have a refinancing option built in. In other words none of you know what the F your talking about so for gods sake move on and concentrate on other issues. the 'terrible financial situation' is the context chosen by a bunch of kids who are on summer break from highschool. We're dealing with people here who cant stand the idea that someone else might be wearing a monocle that does absolutly nothing. This group saw one word about loans and automatically thought CCP was going under. Infact, many businesses take out loans. It happens thousands of times each day. Welcome to the real world kids.
Terminal Insanity Minmatar Convex Enterprises	Posted - 2011.06.28 01:11:00 - [5] Originally by: Miilla Show where CCP is planning to license the Carbon engine, licensing it to your competitors is not really a good idea, unless you expect them to bail you out, but that could back fire. Huh, i guess ID Software, Valve Software, Epic Games, Turbine, etc, etc, never got that memo. Good thing we've got these brilliant eve players here to show these industry fools how to run a corp! I'll bet they'll be glad to know they need to stop selling game engines.
Terminal Insanity Minmatar Convex Enterprises	Posted - 2011.06.28 01:23:00 - [6] Originally by: Misanth Originally by: Yarrrrrhh A personal note to CCP: One way out of this mess would be to just be honest about all of this and let us buy those idiotic scorpion skins to solve your darn cash flow problem in the short term. Granted, the words 'Sorry, we ****ed up, please help us keep this sandbox alive. We'll do vanity items only, forever - ok?" would have to be spoken. Just my 2 cents. That's: a) sensible, and b) honest Neither of em seem to be part of Hilmars world. Unfortunately. Funny, im pretty sure that all the devblogs and ccp forum posts have been saying they'll sell vanity-only items in NeX and specifically stated that there will be no non-vanity items. But hey lets act like they didnt, and keep throwing the question up!
Terminal Insanity Minmatar Convex Enterprises	Posted - 2011.06.28 01:28:00 - [7] Originally by: Josh Bolder Thanks for the support, but really a monocle? lol saying that if they brought out a Penguin toy for my cabin I would buy it, MT sure fine a business got to grow, PtW no way. Even though I am inching for more SP You're goddamn right a monocle! lol I agree though, as long as theres no special extra-damage ammo, or faster ROF guns or something. I'm completely ok with vanity-only items or repainted equivelents in the NeX store, i don't care if they make a top hat that costs 50 plex. Go for it! It doesn't effect the game world, and doesnt give anyone an advantage. It puts cash in CCP's pocket. and it puts more monocles and content in my game, that tbh needs it after all these years =P

How about BRASS? Can we have BRASS instead? It looks almost like GOLD. I heard if you talk in really large colorful letters, you make your point more valid. So im here to tell you all that CCP has officially stated several times on the devblog and in forums, that they will only carry vanity items in the NeX store. I also think Pink is a more valid color, and therefore your yellow arguments are now void.
