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.

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.

CCP gave out some imaginary pixel spaceships they said they were going to give out. End of story.

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.

Yes, these are per account, it's intentional :)

No, you're just not understanding what happened here, but forming an opinion anyway. You can get up to speed here.

The people who got hundreds, did so because they had massed accounts to take advantage of an exploit. This decision rewarded that exploit.

Sure, CCP can do as they like. But that doesn't remove the consequences of their actions. The players can do as they like as well. Guess who's an alpha clone next month? This guy. Along with many others.

If you want to continue to subscribe to a game with fundamentally broken mechanics, compounded by devs making bad decisions willy nilly, and ISD locking any threads they don't like while posting as faithful apologists, feel free.

EVE is a game that's played in the long-term. Playing a game where your development is planned a year at a time, requires faith that the team at the wheel isn't going botch things every time they touch it. If I were a shareholder, after this week I'd move for a no confidence vote.

It's not an isk faucet though.
People get these ships -> sell them (Isk is actually removed from the game through fees.)
And isk is redistributed.

If you don't like what CCP is doing just stop paying them.

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..

Its not an exploit, CCP have OFFICIALLY stated that people would get a package of ships per account registered to the email that purchased the tickets

The exploit was the ghost training.

Which was why they had all the accounts.

Which was why they got so many ships.

Its not an exploit, CCP have OFFICIALLY stated that people would get a package of ships per account registered to the email that purchased the tickets

I think that a lot of people are considering just that, which is not good.

Having multiple accounts was never against the rules though

In celebration of Fanfest 2017, we will be issuing a decommissioned CONCORD Pacifier class frigate with the sale of every Fanfest ticket.

In addition to this, weGÇÖll be issuing a decommissioned CONCORD Enforcer class cruiser with every Fanfest ticket that is purchased early, before January 1st 2017.

CCP had it's most profitable year last year, a bunch of hurf blurfing online isn't going to change anything.

i think ccp has been doing quite well, I am fine with plex and sp boosters etc, but this last week has been crasy.

i mean they turned of my skill training, on a payed account. I still don't know how long my account wasn't training. This isn't normal.


ooo - ccp just declared ghost training an exploit

I just saw that, and you can find people who have had 'farms' going complaining already.

To me it's like rorquals and supercarriers and people injecting to get into them.

After previously stating "In celebration of the 20th Anniversary of CCP Games, attendees will also be able to get their hands on decommissioned CONCORD vessels as part of Fanfest ticket packages this year.

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 operative word being Ticket Package, no mention of per account held. Literally throwing 100's of ships at people which are currently trading at over 1b isk each, just a wekk after coming out with theres too much isk ingame, being held by too few players smacks of utter stupidity and no thinking going into the impact of their decisions.

No one said having multiple accounts was against the rules... I get the sense that reading is hard for you.

And beside that, CCP did not say per account. They said per ticket. You can read it yourself here... or can you?

And this article published yesterday says its per account registered to the email used, all it does is expand on the original wording, they never stated it was a single package per ticket nor that it didn't include all accounts owned by the person buying the ticket, you assumed one thing and they did a different thing

Can you please clarify what this response? Players can still skill inject int these skills to fly these ships. That is not an exploit. I thought it was a game mechanic.

Skill injecting isn't an exploit. It's just dumb how people rush into the 'next big thing' that's supposed to make isk without understand that CCP WILL eventually hammer it down, whether it's an exploit (ghost training) or something that isn't an exploit but is unbalanced.

Examples that were not exploits per se but that people complained about when CCP knowed them down:

High sec lvl 5 missions (was a bug, CCP took like 2 years to fix)

The original 250 mil per hour incursions (CCP nerfed after a couple month, then partially unnerfed a few months later)

The 2nd iteration of FW missions that let people make billions the 1st week (they nerfed these but you can still make lots of LP)

With skill injectors people jump whenever they hear of something that sounds lucrative, and this amplifies the problem. CCP used to have months before imbalances became painful, that has turned into days now...

I just saw that, and you can find people who have had 'farms' going complaining already.
