The alliance has invaded Orgrimmar. Since this is a COMPLETELY unanticipated occurrence, we have decided to close Orgrimmar for the weekend.
We realize that many of you can only play on the weekends, so you should try getting a different job or otherwise changing your lifestyle to work around our bottleneck issues. You may also try logging in and playing very late at night when normal people should be asleep.
Please understand that this isn't our fault. There are simply too many people trying to enjoy this game at the same time.
Yes, we have been trying to boost our number of subscribers, but we didn't change our underlying systems because we didn't think it would actually work. So stop spreading good word-of-mouth about this game. You only have yourselves to blame for these issues.

The problem here is that good sarcasm is focused toward a single hard hitting point rather than confusing itself and thus most readers by attempting to strike multiple issues just lightly in a single go. So, you are angry that you are unable to log into Jita either due to population cap or fear of destruction and it is hurting you more due to limited play time. I gather you are angry at CCP for letting the situation develop without intervention and feel they should have done something. You are indicating you are annoyed enough to quit and think other players will be too.
I symapthize with you to a degree in that games are played for fun. EVE is a sandbox that lets people play as they want and some of them are going to want to kick down your sand castles if for no other reason than that they are ugly and they can. It's not a static environment though. So Jita is closed to you? Try Amarr, Dodixie, Rens, or Hek for a weekend. There are a lot of unmentioned trade hubs that are popular and some are near Jita. Adapt and find new ways to have fun as it's a big universe. Otherwise, throwing up your hands, getting mad, and just quitting is a win for the Goons. You give them exactly the wall of tears that they want. |
