Can I have your stuff?
Seriously, if it'd something to do to CCP, then yeah, sure, that might have been 'bad customer service'. But it wasn't. You did something stupid, and then wanted them to fix if for you.
Man up, and accept that your error, lost you a ship. It's not new, it happens to most people. If CCP re-imbursed me every time I undocked drunk... well, I'd have a lot more ships ;p. -- Crane needs more grid 249km locking? |

EVE is not a game that caters or tolerates the stupid. You should find a game that does.
Tell that to highly educated pilots IRL who manages to crash a jumbo full of people due to human errors. ;)
Eve does not equal real life. Besides the pilot who crashes a jumbo jet most likely will lose his life too.

Lol. So you're leaving out of a pure message to CCP?
Yes - CCP. Have a look. You're losing a guy who knows nothing of pvp, or general eve knowledge. And hes contributing a single account too. Wow.
You realise that you cancelling your account is what? 1/3 of what i pay monthly? And i dont even have a heavy alt industry thing. Geez...

Anyways, it is your fault for clicking self-destruct, and it's your fault for not knowing how to cancel it.
I mean, if ignorance was reimbursable, I'd start flying t2 fitted megathrons into gate camps and then petition it saying that I meant to warp to an asteroid belt.

Nonononononononono. Read it again.
This guy says he's cancelling ONE of his accounts, for ONE month, to PUNISH CCP for not reimbursing him the covert ops ship he self-destructed, which he lost because he didn't read the message that explains how you turn off the Self-Destruct (i.e.: click self-destruct again to turn it off).
He's not even leaving the game. He's just going to deprive CCP of $15 this month, to teach them a lesson about running a MMO and customer service...

Without being disrespectful, i think CCP should roll this on him and not accept his resub to punish HIM for having less than adequate brainpower!

How to cancel self destruct is clearly stated when you press self destruct. Don't see how you could have missed that.

Quote: "Subscription successfully canceled" Subscription Status: Cancelled Will be suspended5/26/2008
This the result of a Senior GM's ruleriding. There is something called being fair, but this is far for that.
My subscription cancel message: I managed somehow to do a self-destruct instead of eject, to that I lost a CovOps, 2x 5mil rigs and a Sisters Scanprobe Launcher + several other modules and scan probes, about a total cost of 90mil isk. There are no information about how to cancel a self-destruct on the entire site and I didn't see ingame notice about it either.
GM XXXXX won't give me the stuff back, so I have no other choice than to cancel my subscription for a month to clearly show you what my opinion about this matter is. I have lost something due to bad customer service and customer understanding, so this will in end be your loss too.
you will not be missed ____

Edited by: Druadan on 07/05/2008 20:53:28 The OP has good reason to feel hard done by. This isn't about him not bothering to check the information, or sucking at the game. This is another instance of CCP's UI design being severely lacking in quality. The concept of feedback has gone entirely unnoticed to CCP's UI developers and this is the kind of result we get: people lose ships and the Internet tough guys come out in force to tell him he sucks at the game.
When I first started playing, I took a Thorax into a complex. It was a fairly easy complex to take a Thorax into, but I noobed it up and got myself swamped. I realised I was taking too much damage while I was halfway into armour, so I initiated a warp back to the entrance gate of the complex. Would have been fine were it not for the error message I received, which told me that the warp could not be initiated due to "proximity to natural phenomenon" that were blocking the warp. I knew you couldn't warp straight into a room of a complex, and that you couldn't MWD inside a complex, so I started looking around me for clouds, objects... anything that could be a phenomenon blocking warp. Eventually my ship exploded as I ran around this complex trying to find my way out of range of this phenomenon.
I later found out that the error message was simply doing a paltry job of telling me that I couldn't warp from inside a deadspace complex back to the entrance gate for that complex. I petitioned the loss on the grounds of the error message not telling me what I needed to know, and got my ship back (though it was insured, so I didn't end up much better off and removing the payout nearly sent me into negative balance).
Sometimes, deficiencies in the client lead to these kinds of losses, and it's in those times that CCP need to man up and accept that their UI caused the loss. The way the client displays information messages is a seriously awful part of the client. Had their developers paid attention in software engineering degree modules, the UI might not suck so much.

"proximity to natural phenomenon" warp error.
You were a n00b, and didn't click self-distruct, this is why you received a replacement ship from a forgiving GM.
I however would not have replaced your ship. If you followed the in game tutorial, you have the basic principles in which to play - outside of that - it's left for you to discover and learn as you go along. That is part of the immersion process of this game, not to have everything laid out before you with their consequences detailed, but 10% explanation and the rest is left to trial and error.

How is it you manage to get a covert ops ship with a fancy faction scan probe launcher and you dont even know how to abort a self desstruct? Even one day old achura's know how to do that

Ahh and you don't ? Well, not so much the Darwinian part, not lately anyway. Lately, it's "dumb it down just enough so more people will stick around, but not dumb enough to lose too many of the old crowd".

Svedge, as you've probably already noticed, there is indeed an in-game pop-up explanation of how to cancel a self-destruct given upon initiating the self-destruct. The GM's can not be held responsible for an individual ignoring the pop-up warnings, nor are they obligated to reimburse anyone unless an actual bug is responsible for the problem.
That said, I applaud your willingness to cancel your subscription to prove a point. If/when you return to Eve Online, I only hope that you take more time to read and understand the pop-up warnings to avoid further mishaps of this nature. Always play the game with the assumption that you won't get anything reimbursed unless an actual bug causes the loss. ---

There's no denying that it *is* incredibly lazy design to not have the 'self destruct' menu item change to 'cancel' when you initiate it. I don't think I've ever come across that in another game or application, and I had to laugh at the sheer stupidity of it when I first saw that message.
OTOH, OP is a total sh1tbag.
