Someone should get fired over this. Seriously. This one a total ****-show and CCP pissed off a huge number of people today, people who will in future think twice about plexing or subbing their accounts. No renewal = loss of revenue. And for this, the revenue drop will be significant.

So... bye, bye event organizer! The door's over there.

Just FYI, there was more than "ONE EVIL FLEET OF NULLSEC MAD SLAUGHETERERS HARVESTING HISECCER KILLMAILS" (tm), perhaps the initial onslaught was done primarily by Razor alliance, but later on a full-scaled battle between nullsec powers broke out at the gate, and resulted in destruction of 3 capital ships and loads of battleships, not to mention the smaller vessels.

If the event was better coordinated, it could have been a great experience for the new players, giving them indeed a taste of pros and cons of the nullsec warfare (yes, TiDi, lag and 300+ enemy blobs are our common life, but so are sweet, sweet killmails, seeing capital ships melt under your fire and so on). So I can imagine people's frustration at CCP and it in fact makes me frustrated too, because instead of providing fresh and eager blood to our nullsec it caused many people to turn their backs on the null and come back to their silent loathing of the "EBUL ZERO ZERO EMPIRES" while mining veldspar.

So if I may suggest something - CCP, next time ask your CSM contacts who are the right persons to talk to in the nullsec powers, ask them for support. Some may ignore the call, some may react in a completely adverse way, but I am sure there will be nullsec players and forces happy to assisst you - just to annoy other nullsec forces, if not for anything else.

Oh you baddie...
