I guess he could do that without re-reading the topic and thus keeping within the rules of engagement he proposed... but knowing he should do that without reading this might be a whole different issue.
Also this topic is now considered derail'd and is henceforth about Velociraptors and their impact on contemporary human social structure.

I thought about it, nope.. they should reply to the 80+ page disaster this topic turned into.

Some of us don't have any say in preliminary design. Has to do with departments and corporate structure, delegation of duties and all that jazz. You want us other people off your forums while the design team comes up with a new idea and post it ASAP since this change is actually affecting people? Personaly I wouldn't touch an 80 page disaster with a 10 foot pole.. Please keep in mind: I'm not posting here to be your bullseye but because I want to.

I'm glad that the CCP team is having a little fun, but be mindful that your frivolous statements may just agitate your customers. You have serious issues with the game that needs addressing (primarily Jita and systems with over 300+ players), and such puerile displays undermines the respectability of your organization.
The only ways to 'fix' systems with 300+ people are:
Shard = not going to happen, ever.
And then theres the novel idea of just not going there, I contribute to the solution of 'the Jita problem' every day by not going there.
Everyone affiliate with the IDEA that caused the threadnaught everyone is referring is well aware of the feedback contained within said threadnaught. Otherwise there wouldn't have been any reply here either, we read the forums. Where we reply is up to us and weather or not we feel we have anything to add to the thread

Originally by: Quel Thalas Someone Nerf Zulupark from game balancing and put him back where he was. Capital ships are fine the way they are.
PS: no you can't have my stuff; I'll make a youtube video of me trashing all my stuff.
On top of that I'll not be looking at this thread again so flame away.
Seriously. You guys are making me sick. All these players complaining about a POTENTIAL CHANGE in the way carriers operate are worse than any other whiners that have existed in this game. If a ships that can hold more than five drones in its drone bay cannot control more than 5 drones, why the hell should a carrier be different?
Is it REALLY that big of a deal? Do you really think that a carrier should be able to pwn anything it sees solo?
Carriers should be able to tank a 5 man gang, but should take a while to destroy them.
And you know what? Here's what I think. I think that carriers and dreads should not even be able to fit armor reps or shield boosters. I think that all cap ships should rely on other ships to keep them alive. So if you're flying a carrier, then the only way you can get some armor back is if your buddy in a carrier next to you starts repping you.
All Capital ships should be completely reliant upon other ships to survive. No capital ship should be able to exist without it's support gang.
Yes, that sounds great in theory. But that argument doesn't take into account lag or the fact that someone in a 200k isk frigate can sensor dampen you where you can't lock your gang mates in order to repair.
These arguments are clearly from people who NEVER have had 200+ or more people in a fleet action. Sorry, get some experience dealing with 500 people in system and tell me exactly HOW you are going to be able to help out your gangmate when he needs it and then argue with the same proposal
Having said that, I don't think the new dev should be roasted so much because people should come up with new ideas all the time and not be discouraged from doing so. But when a major proposal like this is made that effects long time players (just ask any ex-SWG player how we felt with the changes to THAT game and you get my drift) that fundamentally changes something, we tend to get very upset about this. And tbh it's best to be vocal about things that we find undesirable, especially when a vast majority agree with it.
I can understand the needed changes if lag is the issue. I would happily accept 5 fighters as long as I get large damage mods for them ala the first drone nerf where they took away 5 drones, but made drones deal out twice as much damage. That seems fair. But if they want to get rid of all the MS in low sec camping gates, well, who in the hell really complains except nuubs (who should learn from what happened and not repeat it again like TRUE humans) or lazy people?
See now, you're using examples that will no longer be as valid after these changes come in. If they come in. Sensor dampeners and such modules are being changed too, if half of the people that are trying to affect design spent some time familiarizing themselves with the intended game mechanics after this next major patch they would see that they are not quite as horrible as they think. There are many factors here that people are not seeing yet. So we wait, and see what the feedback is when people have seen everything instead of just a glimpse.
