If they didn't give a toss, why would they bother setting up fanfests or flying equipment and people half way across the world to run an alliance tournament every 6 months?
money?
You are correct good sir!

If the player base is ok with a mediocre game its going to continue to get a mediocre developer involvement.
Not that I am saying Eve is such a game, but you should never loose sight of the fact you are paying for this game monthly. In doing so you are paying for the continuous growth of said game. Always compare the amount of involvement/time and money you have put into this, to the updates in content and how often they are applied.
Every 3 months you are essentially buying a brand new game at $45, give or take depending on your own currency.
The real question over whether CCP cares about its customers is if you are truly getting a new game's worth out of 3 months of a game you've been playing for X amount of months or years.
Additional content is what makes an old game seem new, not changing aspects to the current items within it. (those should be a given)
I am not paying to read the story of Eve, I am paying to see the fantastic ideas, we see developers praise, become reality in Eve. "soon tm" should not be a means of timing these expansion, but rather on the customers needs for new content in a nessicary time span.
This is how CCP will have to "care" about its community.

Well personally i'd put a complete overhaul of the graphics engine for free as a good sign relating to CCP, given the fact other companies would probably have released it as "EVE 2"
You DID pay for it (back to that whole monthly subcription fee), but yes a graphic overhaul is a good sign. However, it has been brought to CCPs attention for quite some time now that a graphics overhaul was in extreme order. Some may even argue that it is "late" in terms with how long the game has been out.
