Originally by: Sim Frost I am not a newbie, but I whine and I will continue to do so, not because I don't like EVE, but because I love and care about EVE. I love EVE and I want it to get bigger, better and freer of lag, bugs, macroers, etc. So I will not sit in a corner and be quiet.
However, my strongest whine is not towards CCP but to the old gamers who have been quiet! CCP truly listen to the customer base while they are shaping the game. This game could have been in another stage if only the base of old customers had unified their voice and spoke up as one body.
Why do drones stubbornly and mysteriously get borged after "every" patch for many years? Why do CCP insist on releasing large patches in long intervals which break many things instead of releasing "small", weekly fixes, easier to make and and easier to track? How can fonts evade quality assurance at almost every major update when they are the first thing you see when you log ? etc. etc.
You see, I ask questions, (you call that 'whining' and CCP 'constructive criticism') because I love and care for this game and will not be silent about it.
And why do I use public forums instead of private reports to CCP? Because the unified public opinion shouts louder than the individual voice.
And if I am told to go away or stop whining, I will only whine (NOT rant) louder

QFT
What the fanboys and apologists (I prefer to lump them all together under the title "toe-suckers") keep forgetting is that many of the players who hop onto the forums to "whine" are also long-time players who have seen countless screw-ups and fubar'd patches. Those players have every right to come here and complain, providing they follow the forum rules and guidelines.
Just like the OP has the right to make yet another post whining about whiners.
As a side note, I can't believe this thread hasn't been locked down yet.
