What a stupid effin post. The EULA says *nothing* about crippling the OS by deleting Microsoft - another company's - system files.
actually it does, see bold
D. Software Updates
CCP may from time to time update or otherwise modify the Software electronically. You hereby grant CCP permission to: (i) extract hardware system profile data from your computer; (ii) extract information from your computer's file directories pertaining to the Game and your ability to access the System; (iii) download to your computer content and Game files and any data related to the operation of the Game. The foregoing applies to any computer from which you log into the System using your Account.
reading comprehension ftw
BTW. Most EULA do NOT hold up in court. The software companies tend to make them overly broad, and encumbering. You fanbois sem to think that they can put anything in the EULA and that makes it okay.
"CCP hereby has the write to update extract, and modify any system files. CCP declares the right to your first born, and dibs on your cute sister"
"Hey sis? Come here a sec.... I need you to go to Iceland"

I would be willing to bet out of the 3-4 agreements you had to go through to download install and patch eve that you gave away your rights to compensation to any damage eve software does to your computer or data LOL
Once again. Just because something is put in writing, and you click the "agree" button, does NOT automatically exempt a company from unreasonable damages. Just because something is in writing, does not make it true. Please get this through your head.
JUST BECAUSE SOMETHING IS IN WRITING DOES NOT MAKE IT TRUE. JUST BECAUSE YOU AGREE TO SOMETHING DOES NOT MAKE IT OVERLY BINDING.
The EULA eve has is WAY to broad and ambiguious to stand up in court if someone wanted to challange it. Especially in the EU where consumer protection is at a higher standerd. But really, who is going to? You? Me? LAUGH!

You wouldn't be able to sue them even if your computer exploded.
2. You signed an agreement so they aren't liable.
Please see my previous post.

You both need to understand there are tons of people who dont even know how what a boot.ini is, let alone how to fix it. Plenty of people probaly dont even know it was related to eve, and just assume the computer went to ****.
You need to grow up.
What this man said. While I myself.
A.) Run Vista
B.) Am extremely computer fluent and could have fixed it myself.
Not everyone is up to the same skillset as you or me. You cannot expect them to have the same lvl of understanding and ability. Period. There are MANY people whom, if the computer doesnt boot up when they hit the power button, thats it. Game over.
In fact, I would say that is the MAJORITY of people.
