It does not take someone with superior intellect to see what CCPs true goal is they feel they are too large to rely on the buddy program this mass invite thing is just an excuse to stop paying out rewards for successful upgraded accounts
if say you start a trial account for your secondary or alt account through a buddy request U get a Plex exactly like the power of 2 but going about it a grayish way intern then U keep the account running, correct? so CCP wins ? yes. CCP still makes a monthly credit..
if a person sends out a mass request that would not hurt the game as what percent of people stop playing after purchasing 1st months account, not many, more people stop playing at the end of the trial.
the majority of player who play this game already play 3-4 other online game some of which already pay subscription and the money side is irreverent
CCP YOU may never read this cause you are big enough to not care what your loyal subscribers think :
-WHAT POSSIBLE GAIN DO I GET NOW FOR INVITING PEOPLE
-WHY SHOULD I GO THOUGH THE TROUBLE OF ADVERTISING TO ALL MY FRIEND ABOUT THIS GAME
AND ACTIVELY TRYING TO GET PEOPLE INTERESTED
-DOES CCP NEED US OR DO WE NEED ccp
I love this game but this relationship is a little one sided |

AND ACTIVELY TRYING TO GET PEOPLE INTERESTED Either because you want a PLEX/gametime, because you think they'd enjoy it or because you'd like more people to play Eve or possibly even a combination of all that.
Quote:-DOES CCP NEED US OR DO WE NEED ccp No clue, but I got another one: Does a smartbombing battleship in Rancer make a sound when there's no-one around to hear it?

Actually, it's probably to stop the proliferation of 51 day accounts which make CCP /no/ money, while taking up server resources.
(create buddy account. upgrade it with a plex. get a plex in return. use it for 51 days, let it lapse. start another before it finishes to get some training done before you need to switch. People have done it for mining alts.)

Yeah, buddy!
The buddy invite is the cause of spam on many forums and community sites, I don't call that a success. Seems like thousands of players are spending more time spamming forums then actually playing EVE.
New players in EVE = great. CCP inciting everyone to spam the internetz with buddy invites = bad.

Seems sort of strange, that if I invite a friend to the game and send him a bil for a plex and ships, I dont get any game time in return. |

I've got some good and some bad news for you. Bad news first: you didn't read the devblog you're commenting on. Now the good news: you still get game time.

The URL seems to be a pretty good way for getting the name out, but using that as a guise to nuke the PLEX-for-PLEX under the banner of "we're sure you understand" is simply not putting out enough effort to ~really~ gain understanding. It is an asinine assumption -- something that CCP culture over the past few years has been inclined towards. Specifically, CCP has been making erroneous assumptions about usability, what players want / don't want and how customers will spend their hard earned RL currency on in-game currency.
This is a business culture and set of behaviors which can be changed for the better by wider player polling using controlled methods (NOT forums and NOT the ******* CSM) as well as ensuring that business decision makers and designers generate initiatives based upon facts and research rather than their own inclinations or unfounded assumptions.
There is a pattern of assumptions being the rule rather than the exception within CCP decision making. That has seriously hurt CCP's bottom line AND the quality of their subscription based EVE entertainment service.

Dunno if it was told yet, but IF somebody uses the new Link for Invites, he will just get in the Accountmanagement an Hint that someone has used it WHEN he has Subscribed.
Its quite difficult to bring the Player wich send me some Mails to claim the Reward for the Buddyinvite in line with the Information wich i get in the Accountmanagement.
Normaly i get the e-mail from the Buddy so i can compare it with the e-mail in the Accountmanagment so i can send the new Player his reward to the right Character.
Would be nice when i get the E-Mail Information from the Buddies witch uses that Link because it would make it safer for me and the new Buddys if i uses the Link for the Invites. As long as it is like now i will be forced to use "the old Method" to have an secure and serious Offer.
I apologize for my bad english, but its not my Mother tongue.
Greetings
