Chribba deserves a nice statue surrounded with Veldspar asteroids :)
I think his capital fleet in highsec is a good thing as well. Gives all the people who haven't dared take the plunge out into the lowsec and nosec regions yet, a taste of what wonders are out there.

People have completely missed what it should be.... a Giant Veld Roid (un-mineable) parked next to a well travelled Stargate Named Chribba's Roid Sig removed as it lacks EVE-related content. Mail [email protected] if you have questions. -Hango

Originally by: Patch86 *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.
TBH, you could be right. As awesome as Chribba having a Rorqual to accompany his Veldnaught would have been, it's probably too late for that now (and I am glad they finally fixed that thing with the assembly arrays).
A statue would be a highly decent start though  ------

What trip?
Oh and also, i'm not flaming or trolling, i'm giving my opinion on the matter... in a rather contructive way also.
Except for the loonie part, but honestly, you'd say someone paying 3000 a month for GTC's is a loonie, but when it's a different cost, it's suddenly a legendary feat? Seriously.
So yeah, i have a problem with being serious, but it's the almost smallest problem i have. |

Edited by: Laura Steel on 03/09/2007 19:44:02 They should design a 'Miner's Yatch' or something :P With more of a rugged 'feel' than the luxery one, still nice though.
Then Chribba could cruise about in a unique yatch <_<
As for the comment about him hosting his sig on Chribbas service, if he hosted it on photobucket would it make his points more valid? I mean seriously lmao ----

Why don't you take a step back, try to flame a bit less, and notice that i'm not saying "No chribba sucks give nothing!!", but am giving constructive criticism on WHAT the reward should be. Fact that my sig is on eve-files, has nothing to do with it. Didn't know then what i know now, that it IS chribbas site.
And next time, answer the question, or talk about what i write, don't just try to pick something out of the "troll" hat.

well, I dunno, in the US when someone calls someone else a "loonie" that is considered a flame imo. So I respond with the proper amount of "forum force" to counter what I perceive as a flame. Maybe "loonie" means something else where you come from.
And, no, stepping back would shame me with my alliance, I...MUST...PRESS...ON! -----------------

Loonie= bit silly, bit insane.
It's not a "he's a stupid a-hole with a mental problem" kind of thing.
But spending 3k on a game/month? That would, if it was ANYONE else, be considered as "loonie" behavior.

The line has been drawn here. By allowing Chribba to have a Rorqual in highsec is implying that bonuses ingame can be bought by simply providing a service. What happens when the next person comes along, say Griefwatch.net, and they say "We're offering an immense ingame service!"? You then have to constantly redraw the line for each case, and when you decide on a new position for the line, everyone who doesn't get the same advantages cries "Bias!"
This way no one benefits, and that very nasty can of worms stays nicely shut.
You take what is offered. And that must sometimes be enough. |

We only like Chribba. Everyone else sucks. So, there, that won't happen and now that we have solved this problem we can go ahead with the Chribba rorqual in high sec ceremonies :). -----------------

By the way, another point on why he shouldn't get his ship into highsec.
Suiciders.
That ship isn't really a "worthy appraisal" if it can be blown up, and since they can't keep giving him a new one each time, since that would just be against all things EVE...well...

Not certain, but I think it'd be near enough impossible to suicide a capital ship. Simply too many hit points to grind though.
You'd need a full fleet of hundreds to pull that off. ------

Fair enough point there, though still do-able 
But how about if chribba wants to move out of highsec for a moment?
That single capital is allowed to travel back and forth but others are not? Quite a code change there for a single ship.
Just saying, this ship idea isn't all that thought out i think.
Also, as said, after hearing what the guy dishes out to EVE(which isn't nearly advertised enough), it's not even near worthy enough a treat.

I think both you and Sherrif are wrong on this matter. Not many if any one on these boards can say that they have given to this community as much as Chribba has. He practically lives to serve. What can either of you say that you have done for this community on any commitment level that Chribba has done besides spouting out your opinions? Nothing thats what.
The bottom line is that people have done even less to deserve rewards given to them by CCP...
The girl that got engaged... at fanfest being one of them.
That being said if giving Chribba a Ror wouldnt imbalance the game then why would allowing everyone to do the same imbalance it? The bonuses it allows are to logistical abilities only. Ore compression is obviously better served in deep 0.0 were there are no stations to dock at. The only benefit to having one in empire besides the gang bonus is that you would compress ore without having to bring it to low sec, which frankly is what would need to happen for this ship to serve any real purpose anyway.
But that is besides the point. Clearly the vast majority of the community wishes that he gets said ship. Because of the overwhelming support in this matter, it over rides any call of bias, considering the call for Chribba did not initiate from CCP itself.
Frankly cap ships being made and living in high sec is not game breaking in itself. If CCP deems it fit to allow people that had large assemblies in empire to stay in empire then some people have a large advantage over others already. If it was truely that game breaking they would have removed them all and been done with it.
If both of you are going to argue against this you are at the least going to come up with good reasons for it. As it stands neither of them hold up under any kind of consideration.

Originally by: Sheriff Jones Ah yes, in a nutshell i'm trying to say: Out of game contributions should get out of game rewards, not ingame.
Listen to what his saying it makes complete sense. Chribas does alot for the community out of game so really he should be rewarded out of game.
Your blinded by fanboism to understand his not trolling just stating a fact. Its liek me making exclusive EVE T-shirts out of my garrage with yrou corp/alliance logos on it. Then some one wantign to give me a titan....no I shoudl get some thing out of game as a reward.
Say in game you created a corporation for teaching newbies how to PVP like EVE University, you get recofnised you shoudl get a small token of apreciation in game as a reward liek a Special Ship, or rare item.
I agree 100% with chribbas dedication and hard work but he should get somthing out of game as a reward. ------------------------------------------

correct me if im wrong, but dosnt griefwatch.net take isk for their service? compared to Chribba they are kinda small. he provides all thing the players need, he spendt Alot of money and time on this.
for the rest, a statue of veld would be nice, no real advantage, but still a nice reward. :)

Lol I am not blinded by anything. The problem with what you are saying is that it doesnt relate to this situation in the slighest... Chribba does everything for free and out of the kindness of his heart and benefits the WHOLE community. your Example is neither.
Eve Uni is more RP than anything. Its not like they are spending thousands of dollars of real money every month to teach noobies to fight, which by the way every allaince in Eve that PVP does already.
Further a Ror is in no way game breaking, in fact its more broken than anything. There is absolutely no relation to giving someone a Titan... again if you are going to come up with an arguement make one that has a lick of sense in it.

Edited by: Sheriff Jones on 03/09/2007 20:59:26 A few facts, that have come up here:
- Chribba deserves a reward. Granted. Ofcourse. No doubt. - There needs to be a reason ingame, to give ingame reward. As in, a story about it. Otherwise it's a bit worldstory braking. Don't just suddenly put up a statue and "well...it's chribbas work on a website"..erm...(yes, RP matters!) - Off-game reward would be more appropriate, for out-of-game acts of goodness. - The ship may not be a great reward, taking into consideration all the facts and that it's a "tiny" reward for all the work. - A statue, huge veldspar roid, a ship named after Chribba...ever lasting, ever known reward. Much better, much mroe fitting, as long as it's done "by the book".
So, we could say, give him something out of game for out of game actions or give him a "monument" reward, not a ship in the wrong place.

I think my point he was defending is that for off-game actions, off-game rewards and vise versa.

A giant statue of Chribba outside the main station in Amarr would be most appropriate. It would have a description of what Chribba does and why he earned himself a statue. That's the least CCP can do for someone who has been providing FREE services to the community for so many years. It's really a shame CCP doesn't help Chribba with a few servers in their London collocation to help improve the service furthermore.

Exactly, a statue would be nice, but not because "Chribba provided a website with useful thingies!"
No no and no.
Write a story, give a good RP reason and THEN a statue can be made.
Naming a new mining ship after him on the other hand would be, well, all the same. Ships get named for silly reasons anyway.
