Dear CCP,
I am but a lowly eve player who would like to show their appreciation for another member of the eve community who has done more than any other single eve player has done.
Chribba has done more for this game than any other community player, without a doubt.
I don't know a single eve player who doesn't know what eve-files is, i don't know a single eve player who doesn't know who chribba is to be honest.
He is a great asset to this game and deserves some sort of reward.
I think a Shrine in Amarr or would be a great way to salute one of the best members of eve who has put so much of their time and effort into this game.
What say you?

Maybe they should name a ship after him, something like "Apocalypse Chribba Issue" or a solar system ... or ye, rename Jita to Chribba

Well a statue would be much better, it would be there indefinatley until the eve servers go down.
People would know who chribba was and what he did for eve.

I think having the only high sec capital mining ship in the universe would also make him famous. But why not both? :)

/signed, even a nerfed version of the Roqual just for him (and stuck in a high-sec system, unable to go anywhere at all), is perfectly acceptable to me.

Well, they can't give him the mining ship, that would smack of favoritism. While I would agree that Chribba has done more for the EVE community than any other single player, giving him a huge in-game advantage via a high-sec mining capital ship would just upset a large portion of the base.
Now, some other kind of prize for extreme game commitment would be appropriate. The statue would be a good option, or simply give him an Opux luxury yacht. The yacht seems to be the standard "in game" reward for good community members, and since there are all of two of them currently in game, giving Chribba one of these rare ships would be a nice gesture. Provided that he couldn't sell it. Otherwise, a statue would be good.

I dont think thats true. We all know he deserves it. And if you look at the other thread, how come 95% of the posts are positive to the idea?

It doesn't give any sort of huge advantage, especially not in the system where he was building it.
It's not like it's an uber veld sucker.
I'm glad the GMs decided to use their time bothering people with LSAA rather than investigating the 1000s of mission farmer/0.0 farmer ravens funneling isk onto the RMT market.

So...what HAS chribba done?
Seriously, what?
Not trolling, just that..well..don't know anything about his "contributions" to EVE other then, well, he mines veldspar.
About giving someone a rule bending ship, bad bad idea. Because then any other player has to have the option to get one too.
If i donate 10k for new server hardware, can i get a high sec titan?
See where it would go?
EDIT: Also didn't he get a reward and such already, that EON thingy?
And also, if you want to reward Chribba, give him your isk. Show your appreciation like it should, by actually doing it yourself.
So yeah, i have a problem with being serious, but it's the almost smallest problem i have. |

A single mining ship couldn't imbalance any markets if it had three times the yield of a Hulk, to be honest.
I agree that Chribba deserves /something/... but to be honest, you can already do a lot for Chribba if you donate a few bucks to help him keep EVE-Files running!

He hosts and runs www.eve-files.com, which is the place everyone's forum signatures, screenshots, full-length movies and whatnot are hosted. He's got almost 800 GB of data from the community stored there for download. He's providing it all for free.

and uh to the people saying if you donate blah blah then wil you get blah blah so then no one gets special treatment
when you do it we can talk
right now chribba deserves love and that rorqual should be where he started doing it even if they have to remove all the arrays

Alrighty then. That's not really public knowledge. I actually thought it's a CCP thing (as it should...)
Well...although it's nice, and should be something that's hosted by the game itself, and a really nice thing to do...
Not worth a rule bending 
I'm not saying that to anger people, just saying that it's not THAT special. And mainly, big issue, if we bend rules now, how about if someone does dish out the cash for something bigger? Like a couple of new server thingies, or a fanfest.
A statue, sure, as long as it's "in the spirit of game and not story breaking", but not something that others can't achieve.
Just my opinion on it, and if Chribba does get his ship, doesn't really bug me. Just a tad concerned on it being, well, a preset situation.
Ah yes, in a nutshell i'm trying to say: Out of game contributions should get out of game rewards, not ingame.
So yeah, i have a problem with being serious, but it's the almost smallest problem i have. |

I'm told his expenses go in to the thousands of dollars a month, which (contributions not withstanding) are all on him. Not to mention the massive amount of time and effort.
He also runs a whole load of other useful sites and services, including EVE Search, an Agent Finder, for a long time he ran Podbase (an extremely popular killboard), and several other sites. He also freely hosts corporate websites through EVE Files, and jumps in to action with a new service whenever it seems needed. An example would be when CCP announced they were closing the Market forums (thankfully no longer planned); within hours he had set up their replacement.
I highly doubt any one individual has contributed more (either in form of cash, time, effort, personality or folk legend) to EVE's community than Chribba.

*snip* Chribba.
YEah, still, i'd say give something tangible and not an ingame thing. Like, oh say, EON award 
Unless, like said, it's a statue or something. that too would have to fit the world though. Story behind it etc.
A ship that noone can have in highsec? Not only does it seem unfair to players who can't get one, seems out of "roleplay" element and also, if what you say is true, not enough a prize for his work.
To be honest, if it costs him thousands a month to do this, then he's a freakin' loonie. Or has some serious cashflow going his way.
So yeah, i have a problem with being serious, but it's the almost smallest problem i have. |
