I passed links to those Scope reports around to several people I know, and at least one has resolved to give EVE a try as a result.
C'mon guys - you can't argue with new subscriptions, can you? ^_^

We won't talk about how many cruisers I lost this weekend, nor how many nice railguns, or T2 enhancers. We're going to skip right over that. We're going to talk about my new Raven. It is like flying a small city, and the city's only export is missiles.

I love the reports thus far. As for reporting objectively, I say just do your best. Your not a pro news service, just a game news service. It adds so much when we get an overview narration of current events.

Ambassador: Beats me. Try getting a job and earning some money. That's what *I* did. By the way, ambassador's taken.

You can't hope to report everything, not even in the real news. Please bring it back!

The one useful thing that's come from this boards lately and they bury it.
jesus christ.
So, if I want to get something removed from this board all I have to do is raise a little "corporate favoritism" whine? Just how WEAK is Polaris? Is there even a single one of them with anything like backbone?
Okay, Polaris, let me educate you on the reality of the game, because it's obvious you are too busy cringing under a couple of whiners.
EVE IS BORING.
You have to mine for DAYS to be able to afford a ship, only to get it blown out from under you in 30 seconds of gate-camping. And when it DOES get blown up, it doesn't mean a damned thing. That's right, NOTHING. Just some loser whose teacher yelled at him who's going to take out his anger by ruining someone else's day. "Why did you pod me?" "Because I could." Yeah, that's GREAT gameplay.
Or some little "raid" goes on that maybe 50 out of the entire playerbase get to participate in. Oh yeah, baby. That fills me with confidence that I too will get to participate in a 30-second fight, the culmination of my Eve career! Earth to CCP: Your "live events" are weak and irrelevant. They lack meaning, they lack impact, and they lack interest. And nobody gets to participate! They might as well never exist.
So, FINALLY, the players make something happen that isn't deadly dull and boring. FINALLY there's a war for a REASON. Everything that makes us watch the History Channel is happening right here. The news is big, the news is relevant, and the players are doing exactly what CCP had hoped would happen. The reporting was well-written, and made me actually want to play the game.
The first good thing to happen in Eve, the first event worthy of coverage, the first event worthy of telling the outside world about...
And you fall silent on it, because of a complete lack of courage.
More education. No matter WHAT you do, someone out there is going to haul out a "favoritism" whine, because you've taught them that this is the way to make you jump through hoops. Do what you're told, or we'll cry "favoritism!" And you WILL do what you're told, and you'll do it NOW.
The online game biz is rough. You're going to get criticized. If you can't handle that, then get out of the way and admit that you don't have what it takes.
Oh, wait. You just did.
The Scope is now completely irrelevant, in the same way that the rest of the one-paragraph "carefully constructed backstory" is irrelevant. Scope is going to dry up and blow away, and nobody will care or notice.
Good going. Good decision. Yup, well worthy of respect.
Either restore Scope to what it was, or shut it down and go back to passing off one-paragraph zero-relevance "news flashes" as content.

Qball puts his X on the paper.
I found it to be a good read. And that was a really fair look at the Venal Region also. I know I've been in the middle of it the whole time.

I would add my signature to this as well; not to report on some player events simply because it is impossible to report on all player events is an absurd argument, indefensible either in an in-game or real life context. Does Polaris not run any events because they cannot run events for all players? Do real news services cease to report on events because they cannot report on everything happening in the entire world?

~signed~ Very entertaining reads, and not at all biased IMHO. Yeah I noticed how TTi is silent here too.. Pretty pathetic of them.

Look fella, Eve may be boring for some people, newbies and non-roleplayers mostly I'd say...
But a LOT of us really enjoy playing Eve.. it's a question of involvement and immersion.. I roleplay heavily and interact with other players.. If you don't enjoy mining or npc farming THEN WHY DO YOU DO IT???? Nobody is forced to do all that crap. You don't need a battleship.. And even if you do there's no need to be a grunt to get it. Plenty of ways to make cash and have fun at the same time.
