@TheGunslinger42 - I'm pretty much in agreement, except to say that a decision of this magnitude certainly had to have involved more than one decision-making individual at CCP. There's real reasons why your Eve character doesn't do /dance. |

I like that you agree that nothing has changed, because looking at some of the raging in this thread, you would assume that the sun was never going to rise again all over New Eden! However as regards to what should and should not be, I'll have to check the Eve rule book and see if there is a chapter listing what should and should not be. However before I do check I'm already pretty sure it'll say something like, if CCP wants to, then they can.
The workers at sommer worked hard, and got a little reward. Good for them. I will still continue to undock. I'm sure the people who run BIG lottery, Eve-Bet, etc work very hard as well. By what criteria did CCP Navigator decide that Somer were his chosen winners and their competitors the losers? CCP: Not out to ruin your game, out to ruin their game. |

Oh definitely, it couldn't have just been a single person doing it. There would have been more people involved in that decision. And all those people apparently do not understand the history of this game, the playerbase, or how the game itself works. Or they understand all that and simply don't give a toss. Either way, it's pretty abhorrent.
It's a shame those people - which I assume is only a fairly small set - manage to trash the reputation of the entire company so horrendously

i'm sorry, since when were AT prizes secrets? and since when were ccp able to just give AT ships to whoever they liked?

Did you just compare a tournament requiring skill having a prize to a racket for the stupid being given hacks? Its official you're absolutely brain dead. |

CCP don't hand pick a particular corporation and secretly hand them prizes in the AT
Who the AT prizes go to is entirely dictated by the players themselves - it is their organisation into alliances, their practice, their tactics, even their spying and meta-gaming that decide the outcome. It isn't ccp going "hey I like you guys, heres hundreds of billions of isk"
are you trolling or do you seriously not see the difference |

Might as well get my .02 ISK into this argument...
I'll firstly admit what CCP did was wrong, favoritism in anyway isn't cool! BUT, if you look at what was given away /exactly/ what was given away. Then I'll be honest to say all I see is a bunch of kids crying!
If it was a game changing element to a SOV holding corp/alliance/coalition, ok, burn this ****** to the ground! Now sit back and think about it for all of 1 minute, they gave 30 NERFED BSs (same stats as original, different skin, refines into 1 trit.) to a non-combat entity that in NO WAY HAS BEEN PROVEN TO FILTER ISK TO A COMBAT ENTITY AND IS INVOLVED IN RMT! Then people do have a point that they're worth some ISK, that will go down in price with every ship introduced into the game. AND CCP has stated to be doing this more in the future, so the prices will go down even further. But it's not even a game changer with the ISK of the ships. Why? Look at then entity that they were handed to! filthy ******* rich people! I know some SOMER Directors IRL, I can vouch they're not doing any RMT and the amount of ISK they have...this is just a drop in the pond!
I strongly believe that CCP went through all of SOMERS accts with a fine tooth comb. If anything caused a red flag to be raised, this would never happen!
With alot of people doing IRL stuffs for people, and improving the community, which is all cool! Believe you me! They should get something ~cool~ aswell, but I think CCP already has something in the works!
I have to admit, SOMER does alot!
Their site is top notch, they've never ripped off ANYONE! (Looking at you GSF here, even being allies, I get you ******* still trying to rip me off and scam me.) and they always deliver in a insanely fast fashion.
Also, one thing that everyone fails to notice, one simple little thing. CCP can literally do whatever they want with this game and everything inside it! We all agreed and signed to the Terms and Conditions for this game.

TL:DR
- SOMER is a good entity that does alot for the community in the way of donations, and they drive the sale of PLEX! - It's unfair and they showed favoritism to a group with shinys. BUT what the group received and who the group is, it really doesn't bother me the slightest. AND IT IS NOT A GAME CHANGER - CCP can do what they want, by the Terms of Service that we all signed, we said it was OK to do so! (Granted that it's not a game changer in anyway!)

that's actually exactly the point. if we say it's ok for them to give it to somer that means we, by extension, say it's ok to hand ANYONE isk under the table.
it's not who it was given to, it was how it was done and the slippery slope it represents. Yay, this account hasn't had it's signature banned. or it's account, if you're reading this. |

I dunno what's more hillarious , people being surprised CCP does these ''secret deals'' or the guy above who thinks CCP could not possibly be doing this blindly ....
My 2 cents on the matter , i don't give a toss what they do as i stopped giving a toss about them a long time ago.As long as something doesn't interfere too much with my game and i keep enjoying it then i don't give a damn , the moment this stops i'll just unsub and move on.

The bad news is that CCP surreptitiously gave SOMER Blink Ishukone Scorpions x30. The good news is that CCP just gave me tritanium x30 which (according to CCP) is worth the exact same thing! There's real reasons why your Eve character doesn't do /dance. |

Good to see same old CCP. Favouritism, ruining the sandbox and the extreme ostrich syndrome. They think that if they ignore it players will get less pissy?
Not sure what CCP thinks makes us play EVE but they can be sure that ruining the sandbox with favouritism is not going to bring more players or keep them current ones. |

At what point is it not acceptable to you?
Since you don't believe giving items worth billions of isk is a game changer then I guess a titan or a BPO is also okay.
Also the line about not replying is a kin to a child sticking his fingers in there ears going "nah nah nah"
Very grown up of you. |

I'm waiting for my Titan BPO's as apparently being given items that can sell for billions is fine. Also you cant refine a BPO so its even better then a ship :) |
