Wow, over 30k accounts logged into EVE this evening and rumors say over 700 of those were in Jita! Not bad, not bad at all!
That's not all that happened today, but all that is in Hellmar's Dev Blog. I'm going to turn it over to his Blog to explain it further, but I wanted to get a big, "Thank you!" to everyone, from the players to the volunteers, GMs to the Devs. It was a group effort getting this far and credit goes to each and every member of the EVE community.

Congratulations, CCP.
With current growth trends - EVE will have 60k in a year, but from the looks of it, with the extra publicity recently, most of the last years growth has been in the last six months... Nice work to marketing, they are doing a very good job atm - organising all these trips for devs to conventions and interviews is really paying off.
My only concern with this level of growth, is that CCP may forget what makes EVE the game that it is. Please, never shard the game, never make PVP consentual, never do anything like that no matter how many people beg for it... It will only come back around and bite you in the backside shortly after.
♥ you CCP.

Even in the time that I've been playing Eve has grown immensely, and it will hopefully continue till the day that we beat World of Borecraft.
Congrats to everyone at CCP and keep up the good work.

My only concern is that the code updates and such to deal with issues that ultimately result in lag aren't keeping up with the increase in players, and havent been doing so since that awful period of 100% unplayability last September-ish. This will only get worse as we get more and more players.
The other issue is the supply vs demand issue, which, if the new fixes for tech 2 supply and demand don't address properly the first time, is going to become a serious problem.

I'm not sure Testy, now that Dragon has settled down it does seem to be an improvement.
Still, let's not take away from CCP's achievement .. keep the positive in this thread, and stick the negative stuff somewhere else.
Oh, it was nice meeting you btw.

Congrats CCP!
Its a bittersweet moment for me, as I would love to see more players in Eve, but I am concerned about the lag the network bandwidth, database issues, and server hardward cannot handle the higher loads. As of last night when the barrier was broken, it too broke my eve wallet (I was testing my T2 cruiser in a Level 3 mission which was not hard) needless to say its my second major loss after the dragon patch.
I am seriously considering a long long break from Eve until performance improves; I am an international player. Hence those are not suffering from lag could be from local, i dont know.
I really hope CCP fixes this issue.

well congrats ccp, it was good to see, i remember it barely getting over 20k not so long ago
my concern though, is that i lagged out and when i tried to connect i was in a queue, as were some of my gang members who also lagged out. Is it going to get to the point where im going to try and log in and have to wait half an hour before i can play. or if im in a fast moving gang in hostile space, im going to lag out and get left behind because im 10th in the queue or something?
how is this going to work?

Whow, that is great can you imagine when we where looking at 5000 players and thinking it wa a lot 
I was wondering why some systems felt like flying in a big tub of lard... must have been all the n00bs copying their inacurate bookmarks. 
So what is the next target? Are we aiming at the 50k or should we just keep going till the 100k (at which time we will all get a free carebear launcher to complement our snowball launchers )

Congratulations CCP on 30,000+ concurrent players, Oveur on his 30th birthday, and Hellmar's daughter turning 3!
Seems 3 and 0 are the lucky numbers!
I'm glad to be a part of the ever-expanding EVE community; this game has held me for over 2.5 years and will continue to have my subscription for years to come.
It really is something special that you've created here CCP. A persistant state world that manages to place every one of its players in a single universe together. I love it when I describe the game to my friends and they ask "Sounds cool, I guess I'll trial it. What server are you on?". Every time, they're stunned that there's only one.
So seriously CCP, keep your technology on the bleeding edge, and keep breaking those records! While other MMOs charge for expansions and new content, split the community among dozens of different servers, and retire their title after a couple years, EVE continues to give the rest of the MMO industry the proverbial finger by setting new standards.
Hats off to you folks! Keep it up!

Well done CCP! Congratulations on reaching your goal.
I have to admit, when I logged in this last afternoon to 30,5k online, I was pleasantly surprised. Logging in was prompt, without delay, and gameplay itself was very smooth in several nodes. Quite a feat considering the sheer number of database requests per second, npc functions, and all concurrent capsuleer state calculations. My hats off to you folks.
I have been playing since beta (with fond memories of Armageddon Day), had many different characters, and watched as Eve has evolved into what it has become today. One thing is certain; It only gets better and better every year. You have my thanks and appreciation for creating such a wonderful place for us to enjoy.

yihaa happy to see more then 30k players ...(how many of them where alts docked in stations making copy of bm sets? LOL /me thinks a new record has been set...)
I wish for all players many happy times to come and that the dev's let us party along with shooting confetti (or some other funny stuff) into eve-space or each other ... (mmm could be hamsters or other server/cluster running rodents that have recently been crashed ...)

OK, the ball's in your court guys. What do you say in reply to 30k+ players on-line?
Well done, and a huge thankyou to everybody who has worked hard to make Eve into the giant that it is

Congrats to the Eve team, whatever part you play.
There are problems with lag and various gameplay issues to address but hey, it's Eve, and Eve constantly evolves. We have the good times and the bad times.
You can please some of the people all of the time (fanboi's)
You can please all of the peope some of the time (The rest of us)
You can't please all of the people all of the time, no matter how hard you try.
(There are also some you can't please ever, they're the ones on the forums or playing WOW)
Keep growing, keep evolving.
PS: Happy Birthday to Hellmar's daughter and Oveur aswell, did he get that champagne or did it go to Hellmar's daughter in a terrible mix up?

Congrats to Oveur for achieving all this before his 30st birthday. Quite amazing actually, especially since it probably wasn't easy to find funding for his nice spacegame
Good luck, keep up the good work, even when all of us seem like a bunch of whiners. I think the whining is mainly because most players actually care about this game.
Oh, fix instabookmarks please TY

How is this a good thing again? The servers are worse than ever and CCP has the nerve to celebrate. I'll take 15k online and a stable server over your 30k anytime.
Get this game running better before you go slapping yourselves on the back.

thats actually along the lines of what i was going to say.
sure its cool, 30k people in a game world at the same time, but horrific lag and instability that comes with it are not.
yes i know it says im in a nube corp, but i assure you this is my 1 and only char.
i just havent found the right group of people in a corp yet. only 2mos old ffs. |

lag issues will sort themselves out soon (CCP always bring in extra capacity when needed tkaes a bit but they have a scaleable up system available to them )
Ie more ramsdans - more nodes - adding more high sec and now 0.0 x 8 regions in kali (like to see more low sec systems added perhaps one to each constellation and a few new NPC corps associated with some of hte pirate or new low sec only factions.

1.) 50% of that 30k are macro miners or other exploiters.
This is a primary reason CCP won't touch the macro slaves... they'd loose huge ammounts of $$$.
2.) If there are so many players out there learning skills, why have T2 BPOs not been seeded to keep pace?

Hum, wrong supposition dude... for instance Kaunokka (a 0.5 system), is often so slow.
That's a pity because I really like flyin' inside this kind of system, where there's many ships, many pilots, activity and... life. We are playing to an mmorpg, aren't we? ^^

Do you play the same game ?
We were 8 in the same system (in 0.0 ....). Yes it's true 8 is a big number.
Please CCP, Can we have 1 system per pilot ?
I love this game, and I wait the fix that will solve the Lag problem. But please dont lie, we have a lag issue. I just hope that CCP will fix this soon. And I know that CCP are doing the best that they can.

Congrats!
That's a great achievement by anyones standards.
From memory, DAoC's servers used to melt down around 3500 users, WoW tends to have about 10-14,000, so you can see it's a great feat.
I remember in beta and at release it was marketed as a "100,000 users in the same game world", slowly getting there :)

Yes, as a matter of fact i do, and i don't even support everything CCP does before you say so (just to be on the safe side). But i just had no lag (35 in system, 0.0 too). But then again i rarely (if ever) have any lag/queue/whatever issues down there in that part of Providence unless it is my connection or the node crashes so i must be lucky
*edit* My hi-sec comment there was more of a joke on all the whining about laggy hi sec i see in case it's so hard to notice, and yes, i know people have lag too, it's a bit hard not to actually.

1. Get a clue, make it T2, you could use the extra help.
2. T2 is being addressed in the next expansion.

You know, CCCP is already long gone, them Russian countries couldn't quite stay together for some reason, and i seriously doubt they had anything to do with Eve, and i also doubt them two bands or even a chemical formula had anything to do with it.

That's nice to see so nice success on Quantity.
Congratulations for CCP successfull growing. Surely one reason is to listen the customers voices.
Just not forget to do what you need to do, to keep the Customers happy with your game.
Lag is an issue. And it is not whinning, it is just fact.
We know that CCP is well supporting customers usually, with good communications. It would be nice to have some perspective about this issue.
Then , we can have a champagne drink...
