Ok I have noticed a few threads now where peeps are whinging and whining about how CCP just want our money.
To be frank this is ticking me off! CCP IS A BUSINESS. They exist to make a profit. ThatĘs what a business does. I am enjoying paying CCP for the services they are providing me. I have even taken out another new account because of the Power of Two offer. I did this with a happy heart, knowing I am getting great value for money.
The servers have been intermittent with this new (FREE) patch and the service is suffering. Do you honestly think CCP staff donĘt give a ****? I have a pretty good idea that the staff are working really hard to get the service levels to a high standard. GIVE THEM SOME CREDIT!
CCP is the only game company I know off where the DEV's and GM's are as passionate about the products they sell, as the customers they SERVE.
For Gods sake take a look at all the info we are provided with in the form of patch notes, dev blogs, and dev input on these very forums.
CCP are making money from me and I am glad they are. I get many many hours of entertainment from this game and its worth every penny.
Finaly, I hate as much as the next person, brown nosing post's but I am getting tired of seeing people whine about how CCP are out to rip them off in some way. They so clearly are not.
SUCK IT UP and give them a break and then, thank them for all the hard work!

p.s. please get the avatars sorted CCP or I will cry and stamp my feet!

Maybe they should take a few days off after a rollback and then deliver quality work and test their stuff thouroughly instead of just adding more and more broken content?
And after testing and fixing it, you have to check that it does what it is supposed to do again.
There was allot of testing went on before. Many many bugs do not show up until itĘs rolled out a server that has a large population. CCP are working hard to fix issues. This is a long term game and if you lose a few precious hours of your game time (without wanting to sound flamey) then Buuu huuu. CCP want you to be enjoying there game. Give them a bit of time and credit.

Two corrections:
- Businesses exist to maximize their shareholder's returns. Maximizing profits is not always conducive to this.
- The patch is definitely not (FREE). Although we did not pay a one-time fee for it, we have and continue to pay for it in our monthly fee.
But, yeah, I agree with your post. I find it appalling that so many people think making a buck is something to be frowned upon. This is especially puzzling since EVE itself is all about that.
The content is free. Checkout how other games charge for expansions. Whilst we do pay our monthly fee CCP consistently release new content. Much of which is ideas coming from the very community it serves.
I am just a bit peeved that people are so fast to spit out their dummy's as soon as there is a problem. Hence my post. I am sorry if others do not see it this way.

CCP Is a Business? Thats news to me.
Up to this point I thought CCP was a charity organization providing whiny people with a forum they could whine.
Just like you are doing now.
Did you read my post? No you didnt! Your post seem always to offend me Slaveabuser!

When I created my new Character I had all the skills. Yeah thats right they didnt test it at all did they?

You know what Fanboi? No one gives a crap what you think or who you give credit too.
That is just plain rude and sickens me. Why do you have to flame me? You big and tough behind your PC I guess.
If by fanboi you mean I kiss ass, you are mistaken. However if by fanboi you mean, someone who trust CCP are trying the best to get things right then I must be.

And by the way, all the self made CCP Defenders, what do you think would CCP do if you only would pay
12$ a month cause of a leak in your wallet. Would they complain or would they think he will get it fixed soon ?
Please go take a break were talking a couple of days disruption. For a game thats a long term one like eve its really a drop in the ocean.

I just wanted to offer my willingness to take anybody's stuff off their hands if they felt like quitting. I feel it's the least i can do.

I know CCP is passionate about their game, as I have played several games for long periods of time (UO and DAOC). Four years plus on each. To question their compassion for the game.........
You have some valid ideas which you really should take to the ideas forum here
If you want to convo me ingame I will run you through sorting the enemys from everything else part of your overview panel.
CCP WILL get it right with the server problems they are having eventually. There are things bought up in this discussion that are very valid and should be debated however. I think I have seen enough of CCP to know they do not just disregard what the player base is saying to them. I think they would agree that more needs to be done in terms of QA. So Oveur lets hear your thoughts maybe in a blog about how you see the company expansion and how you a going to cope with the problems it brings.
