"Cities became washed with a sea of virtual dead bodies GÇô both player-controlled and NPCs. It didn't happen in just one random location either like some twisted planned event by Blizzard: death came to Stormwind, Orgrimmar, Tarren Mill, Ragnaros, Draenor, Twisting Nether and other servers."
TLDR;
Hackers used a exploit to insta kill entire towns of players and NPCs alike.
Imagine the carnage and mayhem that would ensue if say, every ship/pod in Jita, Amarr or Rens insta-popped simultaneously.
What would you do?
1. Run to the forums and whine. 2. Petition it. 3. Figue BAH! whatever and continue on your way. 4. Grab your Noctis and go on a salvaging spree. 5. Realize **** my clone needed updating months ago.

This happened years ago with AoE doomsdays.
If it happened again, I'd log out and wait for them to remove it again. |

1. I'd run to the forums and whine. Then I'd defend CCP against the people whining and then I'd attack the people defending CCP. I'd pick on particularly vulnerable posters and generally take advantage of the situation to stir up as much drama as possible. |

^^^ Win! If I tried to make a type of coffee that made all of you happy, and you rated it, the group score for it would be about 60 out of 100. Break into 3 or 4 coffee clusters, and made coffee just for each cluster, the scores would go from 60 to 78. The difference between coffee at 60 and coffee at 78 is a difference between coffee that makes you wince or makes you happy. |

If the action that caused the destruction was unknown to me at the time, I'd dock up and try to figure out what happened.
I'd check the forums for the first thread regarding it, look for Jim Era to say "wat", then see if Devs responded in regards to when a fix would be in.
If that failed, or if it was simply a matter of sit and wait for the issue to be resolved, I'd set up a long skill in the queue, and do something else like catch up on reading, try out another MMO, or something along those lines.
It certainly wouldn't be the end of the world. Profit favors the prepared |

Tell the hacker to undock EVERYONE in Jita.... then kill them all. Change isn't bad, but it isn't always good. Sometimes, the oldest and most simple of things can be the most elegant and effective. |

Considering death in wow means nothing, i can't see them having a reason to whine, other than wasting their time.
In EvE however, such as exploit could cost alot of people alot of isk! Not to mention all the time CCP would have to spend giving it all back..... Thankfully, i can't see something similar happening in EvE. |

I would have about 17m isk left... that's awesome "A genius throws a Molotov cocktail and soon realizes that he's going to die choking in a maze of smoke and flame.

I believe the most common reaction woud be to run to the forums and whine and then blame goons. primary target is broadcasted, put all drones on the warp disruption battery. If you are in a frigate you should be at the gate, who blew up? |

Because CCP has such a large player base and is dependent on trade hubs, it would be stupid to assume that they don't have backups or logs that they could use to revert to right before the incidence. |
