A wise man confesses when he is wrong,
A fool defends his actions.
Is it any surprise what path CCP has taken.
The CSM gets in the way of CCP communicating properly with the players of this game.
After all we are not just players, we are customers.
Time for the CSM to be disbanded.

I am not one to yell "canceling sub" on a whim. I stand by CCP's decisions most of the time.
But if this is true, and people actually got free ships on every single Alpha account they own, then CCP better address this and admit how gigantic of clusterf*ck of a mistake this was or even I will be canceling my accounts in protest. F*ck this **** and f*ck your ******** decisions, this isn't even funny anymore.

They're not mutually exclusive.
This was intentional because incompetence.
First their QA guy (responsible for getting things right) halts skill training for paid subscribers instead of ghost training alphas.
Then they gave a free pass to everyone who exploited ghost training for billions of sp for sale and self-injection.
Then CCP Falcon says with a snide smirk that it's not a mistake, but intentional. That spits directly in the face of nearly every EVE philosophy.
EVE's wealth distribution was already consolidated into just a few hands, but now that curve will be even sharper. I guess CCP wanted to see how closely they could imitate the US economy.
If we equate the price of PLEX to a living wage, then the similarities are even more relevant, as the average player's buying power just went straight down the shitter. As a result, fewer players will be able to afford PLEX, and large numbers of paid players are reporting decisions to unsubscribe - commonly citing that continuing would be a waste of time. And that's a reasonable sentiment, as this series of trainwrecks has just crashed the value of ISK, time, and even character development.
I'm not just saying this to be dramatic, I'm honestly a bit stunned and feel as if I've just witnessed a murder, and EVE was the victim.
I've seen some screw-ups, but this is historical - even legendary. Great job CCP. |

So it was intentional to distribute these ships at the rate of 2 per account that each ticket holder has linked to the purchasing e-mail address - what utter bull crap this game become.
https://community.eveonline.com/news/news-channels/eve-online-news/fanfest-2017-tickets-are-selling-fast-last-few-days-to-claim-the-enforcer/ this link detailing that "Every purchase of a Fanfest 2017 ticket will include the issue of a CONCORD Pacifier class frigate, and those who purchase their tickets before January 1st 2017 will also be able to get their hands on a decommissioned Enforcer class CONCORD cruiser." This advert does not stipulate it will be one of each ship per account, but merely 1 of each ship per ticket purchased.
CCP have right royally screwed over their own reputation, as well as making any future adverts they run not worth taking notice of.
Then theres the whole skin issue, recently lunched Hazard Control skins for minmatar ships at almost double the cost of the Sungrazer skins for Gallente hulls - why? No standard pricing? or is it because there are more Nyx's in game than Hel's, therefore you're selling more skins to get the same revenue? Has EvE now officially become pay to win?
I wont even get started on the Eve 2nd decade Collectors box sets that CCP seem to have given up promoting further content for despite saying at the time that additional content would become available, even if it was llimited edition clothing outfirts for the characters, skins for ships.
I neither bought the box sets nor the fanfest tickets, and the rate at which CCP seem to screw things up, I wont be tempted to buy things from them in the future. |

Right now CCP will be panicking and rushing through the code to give us all one or two of these ships so they can say they listened and they are fair. Meanwhile....... Completely missing the point as in doing that they crash the market for the ships, making them relatively worthless and the 1% who ghost trained hundreds of accounts have already cashed in at the top of the market and got richer. Very very well trolled CCP! No they won't, the release article clearly states that ships were given to each account that was registered to the email address used to purchase a fanfest ticket, they knew exactly what would happen "These ships should now be in your redeeming system, one package of ships for each account registered to your email address." https://community.eveonline.com/news/news-channels/eve-online-news/pacifier-enforcer-distribution-complete/?utm_source=launcher&utm_medium=news Working exactly as intended, players set the prices for these ships anyway, if nobody buys them the value goes down until people do start buying them :P
My personal understanding is that these ships were never intended to be "rare." I believe it was during the EvE Vegas closing ceremonies CCP said so. Check the 16:25 mark. https://m.youtube.com/watch?feature=youtu.be&t=15m3s&v=FARkDDbSRFs

All offers are subject to change, its an added bonus, they gave out more ships than people were expecting, can't really complain about rewards being overfunded, the only issue is if there were people who did NOT get atleast 1 of the promised ships, as stated the article on the launcher clearly states its per account registered to the email that purchased the ticket, 1 package of ships per account, which is still in line, they never stated it would be one package for one account per purchase |

Just leaving this here... Keyword: "A decommissioned", "of every Fanfest Ticket" This shows intent to only distribute one per fanfest ticket. |

What are you doing, CCP?! I mean, really??
People who have been 'exploiting' mechanics with ghost training now get loads of free ships too - yay! The ships aren't even tied to omega status! Come on - this is stupid and ridiculous and people rightly should be pissed. There are going to be people who are sat at fanfest getting 1 of each whilst others have 100s on top of all the passive isk for the gamey BS they pulled with ghost training - how is this fair? (EVE is not fair blah blah)
I hate all the CCP bashing but this is completely stupid and the timing could not be worse. CCP please wake the **** up - people care about this game, they are invested in it - that is why they get angry. Every decision you are making is pissing more and more people off - especially as it seems that little thought to the wider impact is being put into any decision or at least, how decisions are being implemented. You have a great game here, a unique one - please, please take a step back and look at the damage certain decisions are having. Conflict drivers are needed, ghost training needs to be stopped dead, this BS should be reversed, some kind of change in citadel mechanics so they are not such a pain in the ass to get rid of - especially if systems have 10's and 10's of them etc. etc. Stop with the aesthetic crap and sort out problems that fundamentally impact conflicts, the economy (I dont mean manipulate it but stop nonsense like ghost training), balance and that make people actually want to log on.

How about just limit them to 1 of each ship per ticket purchased as originally advertised rather just giving people untold amount of isk?
I mean just look at jita and see how much the ships are trading for atm because they are supposedly rare due to supposedly limited availability

So remove all the ships and then reissue them? What about the ones already sold? Should CCP reverse all the sales? Also if you check the video I originally posted. They are not rare ships.

You seem to have a misconception about my role. I am a player Volunteer whos job it is to moderate the forums and filter feedback to CCP. I am trying to get an understanding of what the issue is and what players would like to happen. So I am not sure where you are getting this "Accomplice by ignoring it" from.

Everyone who has exploitet needs to loose everything they have gained. Easy.. And every isk they have made since then.
This is a game people actually pay for. And have done for many years.. I myself paid hundreds of dollars, im guessing a few thousand dollars. I pay this knowing everyone else plays on the same page, with the same set of rules..
Fix it, and fix it fast..

CCP could use the existing reward mechanism and hand out copies of them to every account in eve crashing the price to limit the damage (this can be done with a click of a button, you already got the ships and the gift mechanism)
Then give a different gift to each attendees, one per ticket.
Or you can watch as several dozen people become filthy rich. Wait i remember something like this from before, ahh yes, ccp has printed and handed out tech 2 bpos to their buddies. Has ccp checked who is going to benefit from this "intended" action and if they have connections to ccp employees?

I didn't go to fanfest but I read the article on the launcher and I remember thinking "wow, some people have a lto of accounts, that's going to be a lot of ships, cool, maybe the price won't be so high".
These are not Alliance tournament ships are anything like that, they are meant to be played with and there is nothing wrong at all with CCP rewarding people for not only going to fanfest but also for supporting CCP will ,multiple subscriptions.
The EVE community has always been 'prickly' , but damn. People need to calm down with finding something to be mad at every 15 seconds. |

At the very, very least it should be tied to omega accounts but even then I don't know if it is a solution. I mean they could physically remove ships from those that received them but that causes another PR disaster. The ideal solution is for CCP to think a bit more before implementing something that will fundamentally **** people off. It should have been one of each ship per ticket.
I don't know what CCP can do now that the horse is bolted - I guess the point (there was one somewhere, ha!) was that a little thought to wider impacts when implementing decisions like this would avoid these situations. CCP must know how imbalanced the amount of ships different people will receive (for a variety of reasons - legit alts, ghost training etc.) and they must have known at this time that something like this would blow up in their face.
My ideal solution is that this impacts future decisions that CCP makes so that some of these PR disasters are avoided and the health of the game can be improved. Sorry if that was not the answer you were looking for. |

I found the underlying point of contention here. I guess this strikes against some people's idea of 'fairness'.
I don't think such ideas apply, CCP can do as they please with stuff they own, which is everything in EVE. And CCP clearly stated in the article that was on the launcher that the rewards would be per account. Like everything else in EVE, the people who paid attention (instead of just assuming it would be "per ticket") benefit from it.
oh and that last sentence is gold. Yea i'm sure developers who could probably spawn isk into their own wallets without being caught would instead come up with a convoluted, sure to be noticed and sure to fail conspiracy plan that EVE forum posters could see a mile away lol.
This forum needs a facepalm emoji lol. |

By initially limiting them to fanfest attendees, they are by definition rare as not all EvE players went to Fanfest, so that part of the argument is just quite frankly dumb. Once they are released to the whole player base, if they ever do (as it wouldnt be like CCP to ever go back on their word would it?), thats when they then dont become rare.
In how can ccp recify this, quite simply they cant, as the damage is already done. They may as well just now issue them to all accounts, and give fanfest attendess an alternative "thank you", why there should be in game rewards for out of game events is just beyond me and borders on RMT/Pay to Win.

Like everything else in EVE, the people who paid attention (instead of just assuming it would be "per ticket") benefit from it. oh and that last sentence is gold. Yea i'm sure developers who could probably spawn isk into their own wallets without being caught would instead come up with a convoluted, sure to be noticed and sure to fail conspiracy plan that EVE forum posters could see a mile away lol. This forum needs a facepalm emoji lol.
Which article stated it was one per account - if you mean the recent one then yes it does, however the article advertising tickets for sale in December stipulated "Every purchase of a Fanfest 2017 ticket will include the issue of a CONCORD Pacifier class frigate, and those who purchase their tickets before January 1st 2017 will also be able to get their hands on a decommissioned Enforcer class CONCORD cruiser." The reward was a thank you for attending FanFest, not by simply having more accounts than someone else

You seem to have a misconception about my role. I am a player Volunteer whos job it is to moderate the forums and filter feedback to CCP. I am trying to get an understanding of what the issue is and what players would like to happen. So I am not sure where you are getting this "Accomplice by ignoring it" from.
Nonsense. We know you are Hilmar, for Hilmar has many faces, all of them identifiable by ISD tags it seems
As for understanding it, I'm trying to as well. All I keep hearing is blah blah Ghost Farm blah blah alpha account blah blah rich getting richer. I can't blame CCP if they are perplexed by a lot of it, tomorrow there will be a reddit post about how some CCP employee took and hour AND 5 MINUTES for lunch one day last week and why is is terribly unfair to the playerbase. |

you do know i was referencing actual historical scandal ccp was in right? this isn't some "fail conspiracy plan" it is what they actually have done ccp employees created t2 bpos out of thin air and gave it to players they liked.

CCP could use the existing reward mechanism and hand out copies of them to every account in eve crashing the price to limit the damage (this can be done with a click of a button, you already got the ships and the gift mechanism) Then give a different gift to each attendees, one per ticket. Or you can watch as several dozen people become filthy rich. Wait i remember something like this from before, ahh yes, ccp has printed and handed out tech 2 bpos to their buddies. Has ccp checked who is going to benefit from this "intended" action and if they have connections to ccp employees? I found the underlying point of contention here.

The article I read when the CONCORd ships were announce said per account. I distinctly remember mentioning it to my corp mate who already had fanfest tickets, I jokingly told him to be sure to contract my a couple. I'm going to remind him when he logs on today. |
