I will quit if bob won't get a proper punishment!
I will quit if you touch my missiles!
I will quit if the minmatard won't get a boost!
You can always find a thread in which someone is saying they will quit because <insert a random whine>. They come in masses when there is a dev blog on some future changes. Sometimes they involve a personal grudge and sometimes its a group of people trying to convince CCP that they will go bankrupt because their whole alliance is quitting. At the end of the day a lot of people won't quit (or come back soon enough) because they've invested so much time and effort into Eve and the fact that there really isn't anything better out there at the moment.
So, can you remember some big 'I quit' issues over the years? Which one was the one that created the most whineage?
King Liu is RIGHT!!

The general 'i quit' waves have been around the release of major content 'upgrades' as far as i know, so i'd say RMR and Kali.

I've seen some silly things like people threatening to quit because their face wasn't rendered on the forum. (I liked when there was a way to easily tell a new alt from an old char, bring back the "!")

when they introduced tracking, that was a good whine, also dual mwd nerfage and chance based ECM
to be fair there have been many many whines over the years, hard to recal all of them ------------------------------------------- |

When CCP said skills would no longer train on inactive accounts (don't know if that was ever actually implemented) a bunch of people said they would quit if it was done; only to have it pointed out to them that it was their plan to quit anyway, while their long skills were training.  ----------

When CCP admitted to a minor case of cheating in order to whitewash the real issues  Caldari: Don't have to worry about transversal, falloff/optimal, cap, tracking, how your damage type is being tanked,ship speed, the direction you are moving... etc. Easy Mode w00t!! |

You are absolutely right - most who post they will quit are just making noise. The folks who will REALLY quit due to this don't bother to post here. I know of 3 players (so far)who have cancelled their renewals. CCP has 1-3 weeks to give these players a reason to stay.
This issue is NOT the same as Nerfing missiles or being a '!' for 8 months. If you REALLY think it is then you are - and I hope this is not to strong - an idiot. I do not call folks names lightly - check my posts and you should find this is the most insulting thing I have said to a fellow player.

4S alliance,
I think a lot of them did quit initally !! (and some banned over the shuttle/lag incident)
But tbh nothing anyone can remember will even come close to the missile systems change. It was hideous

I didn't bother posting previously on the issue (what can you say in a 100 page thread that hasn't been repeated a dozen times already), but I'm one of those standing back to see how CCP handles this situation in the coming weeks, and it's up to them whether or not my account continues.
Despite the whiners and screamers, and the "constantly-threatening-to-quit"'ers that get the attention I have no doubt that I'm not alone in my feelings.

The quitting threat is often the last action a player can take. Probably in most cases (when it is a serious personal problem of a player) is the efect of: - intense feeling of unfairness (thus frustration) - being sure that there is no other way that player can solve this problem (or that the problem will not be solved at all) - look at last events and the quitting menaces atm.
As a menace it is of course silly, but it is actually an important personal signal that someone feels hopeless about some situations or problems. No need to make fun about, better to give a helping hand.

The difference between missle nerf and Admitted Dev cheating is clear to anybody w/ 1/2 a brain.
MMO's since the begining have had people threaten to quit. I'm pretty sure I remember people claiming they would quit before the game was even released. ----------------- Read This |

Edited by: fruit cakes on 12/02/2007 15:34:56 you're right people saying they will quit bla bla are just making noise, the truth of the matter is the player base is actually rising, i dont know if anyone noticed but yesterday peak time i noticed over 32k players on eve although i dont agree with whats happened over the past few months i doubt i will ever quit it is still a great game good and bad included. CCP is much under scrutiny atm but im sure they will come through if they are true to the game and players, people saying im cancelling my subscription etc are weak they arent even giving a strong enough case to there defence and in RL probably give up on things they cant handle way too easy, If you have the strength to see it through the rough times (which is where its at atm) you will come out stronger and better at the other end. I would like to see more positive feedback to fix issues as opposed to people saying fix this or i quit its just stupid and people wont listen to them sort of remarks

Um, server population doesn't reflect subsription numbers, in case you were trying to provide a strong case for this...

It's not a marriage, it's a service provided for money. If the service isn't seen to be worth the money then people won't pay.
