The arrogance of the forum people still astonishes me after all this time. If CCP caved every time you people had a tantrum this game would be radically altered on a daily basis.
The truth of the matter is that CCP developed a flawed system that was never going to be viable and used that particular player meltdown to back out of it with some dignity left. Much better to let the player base believe that they have some input in how the game should be than admit they wasted years developing a broken mechanic.
Win/win for CCP.

Oh, you kids and your lack of historical knowledge.
CCP had avatar play in mind for this game since before they started coding it. Since before they were CCP in fact. The only reason they took so long to implement it was due to the lack of software/ hardware.
Like WIS or hate it, it was an integral part of the vision for this game since it was an idea sketched on a napkin.

If the Ivory soap company lost millions trying to develop salted pork scented soap that for some reason wasn't a hit with consumers, I wouldn't care. As long as they still had a reasonably priced basic product.
Same for this game. I don't give a **** how much they lost making other failed projects as long as EVE is a reasonably priced basic game.
Why people equate stagnation with quality is beyond me. If a company doesn't try to surpass itself, it will fail in the long run. If CCP wasn't bold and forward thinking, we'd never have seen EVE hit beta let alone be constantly improving over 11 years. That same bold thinking is what led to the creation attempt of these other CCP projects. Not every project will be successful, but it would be disappointing if they stopped trying.
It's not about the money, Lebowski. It's about the product. And judging by the longevity of this game, the product is just fine.

In this particular case, the Ivory Soap Company tried to make a Bath Tissue product, and did so by neglecting their core product, in a way that brought on the ire of their soap customers. Then, the Ivory Soap company bought someone else's Bath Tissue product and tried to make it an Ivory Soap Company product, but they had to scrap the whole thing and excise that part of the company. If now someone brings up Bath Tissue again, do you think it's inappropriate that people bring up two previous failed attempts, one (or possibly both) of which had a detrimental effect on the core product? Like I said, I don't care as long as I can buy a bar of Ivory soap at a reasonable price. This I can, and have always been, able to do.
Just like EVE. I can, and have always been, able to play this game at a reasonable price. So why should I care what they're doing with their R&D funds.

I'd like the opportuity to mingle with players on a station, it would cool to be in a bar while having the station services up so I can interact and work at the same time. But, thats just me. I thought think it would hurt much to add on to whats alredy there
Thing is, CCP would have to lease an engine that actually allowed more then one character on the screen without melting your graphics card. Meaning scrapping what they've done to date and starting over.
While I'm fine with that since I'm not going anywhere in the near future and I still have secret dreams of teabagging some fool in a player run bar, most FISers would have a total meltdown over it. Ships or nothing, right guys? Though reading the front page today (or any day, for that matter) all I'm seeing is whining over ships. So I guess since y'all are going to cry anyway, CCP might just as well finish what they started and give us a fully interactive Science Fiction simulator.

wis stations could easily kill eve
If the majority of players spent all their time walking in stations then it would seem to me to be the best endorsement CCP could have for implementing it in the first place.
It's not that WIS would kill EVE. Quite the contrary in fact. What it would kill is your EVE. But your game hardly matters when, according to you, what everyone actually wants is to be in the station.
Of course that's a load of crap being spewed by you and the others with a fear that they might lose the ability to force people to play thier way instead of the sandbox way. If people want to hang in a station then God bless them. It's up to them what they want to do in the sandbox. As it is now, probably 10% of the playerbase never undock. Might as well give them something to do between monitoring their market bots and scamming in local.
If you are so afraid that if WIS was offered then no one would fly in space, it's a sad indictment from you on the state of the game.

I'd like to finish my breakfast and not have to walk 30 seconds to the garage every morning. But that's just the way things are. Life takes time and CCP has chosen to model this.
It's called immersion, my impatient fellow capsuleer. Live it. Love it.

I think if you did anything but slowly shuffle, you'd not only be a danger to those around you, but would likely have black eyes all the time. Those things thrusting from your chest are lethal weapons when not respected. Never strut or sashay when equiped with triple Ds.

The problem is how in every discussion with you types you act like it's US (regular people) who are somehow cracked.
$15 is an order of magnitude off for the going rate for a service like this. For those whom I've helped experience this, I have been told that it's an incredibly cathartic experience and worth every penny. The difference here is that the experience comes with its own physical and emotional release.. which justifies the price of entry. Folks hung up on WIS on the other hand are not paying for release.. they are experiencing something that admittedly gives them no pleasure..
WIS, nerf highsec, get rid of NPC corps, make Bluesec a God mode area, nerf ganking, remove bumping, etc.
We see that **** all day long in here. Everyone is hung up on something. They want what they want and don't care how it will affect game balance. So they cry and they cry in every thread that's even remotely close to their pet cause.
But since they pay their subs, it''s fully acceptable for them to whine all day every day, even though any thinking person knows CCP is not stupid enough to pander to their incessant mewling. Nothing will come of most of these deceased equines because to implement them would be game breaking.
Here's the thing about WIS, though. It would not be game breaking. It would be a good addition that would likely multiply the player base many fold. The people with the WASD phobia will keep to their ships and the massive influx of a whole new demographic will hang out in stations. It's a win/win. More players, more money for CCP, more new people to try and recruit into player corps.
So, even though I don't see it happening any time soon, I'll not begrudge people for not letting it go. It's a great dream to have. One that CCP shares with those that want to see some implementation of avatar gameplay.

Nothing. But it has a whole lot to do with making EVE the complete science fiction simulator that is one of the reasons the game was created in the first place.

Seems like EVE as usual, to me.
At any given time in any area of space, you'll find thousands of cowards chestbeating from the safety of their station. The only difference is they're sitting just inside docking range instead of in the actual station. Even then, there are thousands more harassing in local that will never undock and engage in combat.
There are plenty of reasons to dislike WIS but what you said is not one of them.

WIS + Oculus + Adults Only areas in stations = doubling of the player base in a few weeks.
