Doesn't matter wether the issue is that CCP secretly donated them or if it's the monetary value of said items. They suck, they are not T2 BPO's that u actually can put to good use.

Yes, it can affect you. Say CCP gave someone 500b ISK and that someone bought up 500b in dreads and carriers and then gave them all to your worst enemy. How do you think that affects your game? I would assume quite negatively.

you're also free to read the thread and try and understand the issue. although considering you've just told me to cancel my accounts even though on the previous page of the thread i've made a post about not doing so; i'm assuming reading isn't your strong suit. Yay, this account hasn't had its signature banned. or i's account, if you're reading this. |

My perspective on the whole scorp giveaway...
CCP has shown the ability to add "trinkets" to the game pretty easily. Things like the christmas collectables, the upcoming in-game trinkets from collectors edition purchase.
Why not quickly toss in a "SOMER Blink Appreciation" collectible/trinket? CCP gives it's "thank-you", it's worthless to the vast majority of folks, and SOMER employees have that token of gratitude.
I mean, TBH, I'd rather have something like that, over what amounts to a quick ship re-skin. Kind of shows a little more "we care" , if you get my drift.
I guess the key part though, was "Worthless to anyone but the people who earned it".... The risk of having your day ruined by other people is the cornerstone with which EVE was built and we want to keep that (infact, this is much more representative of the consensus opinion within CCP). |

Yea, and I can taste the salt in your tears from half way across the globe.
Can't tell the salt percentage though. Are they super salty or just so-so? My interests include but are not limited to throwing rocks at bee hives.

Well I am at least happy for the Fiction contest for the time being, Somer has given EVE that at least.
Just because you have a keyboard in front of you doesn't mean you have to be an angry name calling Grinch. You hurt my feelings, and I need to discuss my feelings with my bear.
This thread has deteriorated. See you on the next one.

You clearly missed the point where this is NOT about Somer but about CCP handing people game changing amounts of isk just because........ |

Game changing amounts of isk? 600 bil? Are you insane?
I'd completely understand if this was BPO's because people want bpo's. Who, in their right mind buys a Ish Scorp? Prices on those will drop rapidly now that CCP has stated that they will be given out again.
They are only worth isk to collectors, to me, they are garbage. My interests include but are not limited to throwing rocks at bee hives.

They didn't give out BPO's man. They gave out painted scorps that isn't worth more than a regular scorp. In fact, even less because they refine into 1 trit. BIG difference.
Sure, it was bad that it was done under the radar but, the ships are useless. Do try to realise that. My interests include but are not limited to throwing rocks at bee hives.

I'll add another person to the 'I'M AGAINST CCP GIVING SOMER FREE GOLDEN TICKETS' pile.
I do feel on behalf of CCP this is pure favoritism, to create the most expensive EvE gift to date and to give it out to a relatively recent community entity.
EvE has been around for over 10 years and in that time there have been countless community based projects, going off their own back, of which i don't believe have had such a CCP boost as this.
If it's the case that gifts are being handed out to community based projects shouldn't Chribba be given a monumental gift for all his community work all this time? Or the guys at EvE radio? or EOH poker crew?
I'm all for giving community projects rewards but it needs to be an open-to-the-public deal that the public decides on, if it's the community that got that entity to the place where they are now then it should be the community who decides should be rewarded not CCP. If others have been rewarded for their contributions can we not have a blog release to list those too? |

no, i totally understand that. that doesn't mean we have to accept it, however. it's perfectly reasonable for us to say "wait, that's not right. that shouldn't be happening."
why is every one's response "if you don't like it: leave"?
how about i don't leave, how about i stay, voice my opinion and attempt to make the game better. i don't want to quit, i love eve. put up or shut up is not a solution it's just ******* ********.
if you don't like people trying to improve the game that's fine, don't come in here posting complete crap because you don't understand the situation and then end with "put up or shut" when all we're trying to do is improve the game we love.
we post because we care, and you're just trolling because you're quite frankly ignorant of the situation and clearly don't give a damn. if you don't have anything better to do than troll when we're trying to improve something that we love then i honestly have nothing but pity for you.

This thread is providing exactly that: players expressing that they're unhappy with the events.
Quitting now would be premature, as we have yet to hear anything official from CCP. We don't know how they will react. For all we know they could reverse this giveaway tomorrow. Quitting without a word is a childish reaction. Being open to discussion, stating our problems and wanting to hear the other side's story is mature. |

Big difference. A Leviathan is actually useful, a Scorpion is just a Scorpion.
Also, what do you think would happen if they flooded the market with 30 Ish scorps? It's not like people are buying those that already were available on the market at 14 bil isk. Using that value to describe the item value is wrong because it would take a year to sell all of those at that price. My interests include but are not limited to throwing rocks at bee hives.

Because they have been conditioned to never ask any question, to never think. They blindly follow what the guy in (pick your favourit) chasuble, military uniform, white coat, suit and tie... say. That way, they can be endlessly exploited and fooled without ever rebeling. Favoritism is good - CCP 2013 |

except you can sell the scorpion and purchase things that are useful. not to mention there's no limits on what ccp can spawn to players, and therein is half of the issue and subsequent danger. Yay, this account hasn't had its signature banned. or its account, if you're reading this. |

Dude, I'll contract 5 scorpions to you right now. They're exactly the same as Ishscorps only the paint is slightly different. Would that make you happy? My interests include but are not limited to throwing rocks at bee hives.
