EVE's population is dying in real life. Most people started playing in their 60's or 70's and have since passed on  |

As others have pointed out, EVE has always been dying. It's dying right now.
As far as dyeing, they tried it with the ship paint jobs, but I believe the correct term is SKIN's. Don't let other people think you're a stinky roleplayer from WoW or SWTOR (they have dyes over there).
And dieing is the process of stamping sheet metal with a die to create a shape, and I'm guessing that all of the manufacturing slots in all the stations use this process in some way or another.
So the answer to your thread is: yes, yes, and yes. |

Yes, EVE is dyeing. My last session turned my hands a nice indigo. I fully expect my next session to make them something in the way of an appealing mauve. We're so fortunate our fearless leaders can color coordinate.

Forgive this small digression, but seeing as how English is not my first language (American, we've been mangling English for centuries) just exactly how does "he died" convert to "he's dying"? Confusing, and leads to idiot forum threads. Whaddaya call the folks who study language? An enty something or other, or is that just the name of an Eve ship Class?
Setting myself up to be enclosed in quotation marks, but I'm confused.

Stackexchange.com wrote:If someone is passing away, then they are dying. Its origins are: late 13c., "death," verbal noun from die (v.). From mid-15c. as a pp. adj., "in the process of becoming dead." Its confusable "dieing" means: To cut, form, or stamp with or as if with a die. Finally, dyeing means to stain something with color, with the origins: c.1400, verbal noun and pp. adj. from dye. Why is dying the gerund/verb form of to die? For one thing, it follows a general rule of forming gerunds: The vowel group -ie is changed to -y before adding -ing. As this page also says this, it is safe to say that this is a generally accepted rule. Other similar verbs are tie and lie. It is not a special case, but I cannot find an exact date for when this rule was created. It is worth noting that, whether or not this is correct, there are early examples of the spelling dieing for dying in the 1800s. This leads to the thought that the currently accepted form is because of a spelling reform at some point in time since then.

Well, Hell. If you're American you say "croaking". EVE is croaking! Or, "biting the big one!" At one time it was "bought the farm." The origins of that is interesting and oh-so very American.

'Eves' not pinin'! 'Eves' passed on! This game is no more! It has ceased to be! 'Eves' expired and gone to meet 'its maker!
'Eves' a stiff! Bereft of life, 'eve rests in peace! If you hadn't been botted completely 'eve' would be pushing up the daisies!
'Is metabolic processes are now 'istory! 'Eve's off the twig!
'Eve's kicked the bucket, 'eve's shuffled off 'is mortal coil, run down the curtain and joined the bleedin' choir invisibile!!
Yes, in the summer log ins are down.  |

Is EVE Dying?
Yep, sure ....
This is the end, beautiful friend
This is the end, my only friend, the end
Of our elaborate plans, the end
Of everything that stands, the end
No safety or surprise, the end
I'll never look into your eyes, again
Can you picture what will be, so limitless and free
Desperately in need, of some, stranger's hand
In a, desperate land... ...
....or maybe not
