Don't have anything else to say in this thread except who the **** are you that CCP should talk to you before dealing with another customer? Talk about having your entitled nose in the air.

First off "Travesty"? Secondly, AND?

I'd love to know what some of you people have accomplished to warrant this degree of entitlement. Are you perhaps all princes and princesses?

I was pretty clear in what I said. You're a pubbie so you're obviously slow but you can't quote someone then say they said something they didn't. At least edit/remove it to fit your invented narrative. Nothing you said answers in any way the question which is who the **** are you to be privvy to the communications between CCP and another customer? Least of all to the degree that you demand they speak to you before doing their jobs?

If the answer you give isn't "Nobody" it's the wrong answer, because in this instance that's exactly who all of you are.

:edit: for the record I agree that if the facts are what they are the dude shouldn't have gotten any SP back. Not disputing that just disgusted with how some of you plebs present yourselves.

Who are you? Some kind of Mittani alt or something? Erotica 1 is a public servant and a future CSM member. He's a pretty big deal.

There has always been backlash whenever CCP reimburses a carebear for stuff they lost by being terrible. It takes no level of entitlement, and it is to be expected. After all, the amount of whining on the forums is the metric CCP uses to measure whether a decision of theirs was good or bad.

Read much?

Given that there's very little difference when questioning one's sense of entitlement I guess I'll just go ahead and lean back.

You may want to look up "entitlement" I don't think it means what you think it means. Especially given that in that context the insinuation was not that I was "Somebody" but rather merely that you are "nobody" in the context of a communication between CCP and another customer. It was pretty clearly stated as such.

In a casual sense, the term "entitlement" refers to a notion or belief that one (or oneself) has a right to some particular reward or benefitGÇöif given without deeper legal or principled cause, the term is often given with pejorative connotation (e.g. a "sense of entitlement").

You should probably look that word up as well. Calling your "CSM Candidate" or whatever the OP out for acting entitled doesn't confer any entitlement on me. I'm presuming this is what passes for some pubbie attempt at being macchiavellian but for the record you look pretty dumb.

"Hee hee they aren't in my super sekrit goons club, they're all dirty pubbies!"
So tell me, where did you get your sense of entitlement from? You're in Goonswarm, good for you. Point out to me why your opinion is suddenly the top notch in this thread.

you say that like CCP care about setting dangerous and dumb precedents.
see the sticky that has been abandoned for nearly a month.

The problem here is it doesn't fit Erotica 1's attempt at creating a scandal if it's not a tremendous deal. This is pretty transparent and silly.

It's certainly an issue and CCP should go over it and probably reverse their decision but holy christ is this a ham handed attempt at manufacturing drama.

Self proclaimed.

From CCP's point of view:

"Wow, this guy got scammed good. What an idiot. Let's just give the moron his SP back as a one time favor, no harm done."

From the entitled forum trolls' point of view:

"FAVORITISM! CCP is giving out free SP to random players! SCANDAL! T20 all over again! This player now has a MAJOR advantage! OH THE HORROR! Biomassragequitunsubcan'thavemystuffgoodbye!"

For the love of god stop blowing **** way out of proportion. At the very worst CCP took pity on a player who was so ******** that he let himself get podded over 50 times and gave him his SP back. Big whoop. If this is what constitutes a scandal these days we're in deep sh*t.

Honestly, if you think CCP follows precedents, you haven't been paying attention.

...face it Ero, it's CCPs game, and they do whatever they want with it/in it and around it.

Like I said, see you guys in Erotica's next publicity stunt threadnaught.[/b]

What most of you geniuses fail to comprehend is that CCP is a business.

As a player of a sandbox game that is popular for being harsh I too would say; 'The idiot had it coming, screw him. No-one that stupid should even be playing this game.'

However, for CCP this person, no matter how stupid, is a paying customer. If a slight interference will ensure he remains a (happy) paying customer then so be it. When it comes to the bottom line that's an easy decision to make. As long as it doesn't affect the game's economy or otherwise tips the balance in someone's favor.

What you people label as a 'scandal' is in reality just a business trying to keep its customers happy the best it can. You really need to keep a firm eye on where the game sandbox ends and CCP as a real world company with real world employees to pay begins. Those two don't always go together.

The term 'player driven' is exactly that. Driven. EVE is not player created or player managed. It's player driven. The reality is that CCP gets the final say in absolutely everything, including the decision to give some poor smuck his SP back. Agree with it or don't, luckily it really doesn't matter a tiny little bit.

Welcome to the real world. Please name one business that does not work like this?

Go into Wallmart, complain about something and if the manager thinks it's economically justified to give you a gift card for your troubles then that's what he does. But the manager might just as well tell the guy to get lost and lose a customer. That's his decision and his decision alone. Coincidentally you have the same type of people in Walmart as on these forums. Person A got a gift card so logically person B should get one too because it's only fair

So tell me, if you get a gift card from Walmart for some kind of inconvenience, you think every customer of Walmart should get a gift card too? What world do you live in?

Is the train out of control ?

I would pay closer attention to 1.3 "Reimbursement will only be granted if a loss is attributable to a bug or server error. "


Did the player in question loose his skillpoints due to a "bug or server error"?

I didn't say it was right.

I was just pointing out that it likely wasn't favoritism.

Mr Epeen

Err...a random act of kindness?

Mr Epeen

why is this thread still alive

stop posting, just admit you are jelly and want free sp

Favoritism is not random...

BUT the reason I left CEO for Steelfleet had absolutely nothing to do with what they did nor did they ruin our Killboards. Pods, ruin a Killboard... seriously?
Cryptic Powers,
Steelfleet Member.

and I did verify previously that Kiarrah/heavy/whoever he/she is now days... that they did not give you access to any API codes... so I'm a bit confused here. How did you come across said emails in your story? and where did you get the false information that I left steelfleet CEO because of them?
Either way, I thought I'd pass long here and help inform the readers of the truth behind this intergalactic drama filled falsehood/scam this individual did. I do suspect you will reply to this and attempt to defend yourself or give some blind excuse why you lied about me or Steelfleet.

Hey CCP I was there(tm) at 6VDT, where's my Ishukone Scorpion? Oh dammit, wrong thread..

Hey CCP since I'm bad at PvP and get podded often, do I have to worry about updating my clone anymore? Up to 17m sp, right? Or, rather could we like 10m sp.. would boost my skill training and seeing as how generous you are lately with ships and refunds.. what's 10m sp between friends? Not even 17m. Or maybe a Ishukone Scorpion?

Thanks guys <3
