Its obviously time for a server split. Surely its time for choas for the griefers and tranqaulity for the care bears.
Lets see where the money lies.....

Bad idea, bad timing, bad everything.
Including your terming as carebears and griefing. Kinda believe you're referring to Pvpers and miners/traders/everyone else.

Without carebears, griefers would have nothing to do though and, in turn, would become carebears themselves.

And your basis are...?
Upgrades are complete.. it's been a while since I had lag. EvE's economy, player balance, etc DEPENDS on a huge number of people. If you split the servers, you will be signing a shut down contract for EvE.

A MMO should only have one server.

Oh well, hope the medication kicks in soon.

More than one universe = EVE looses a lot of players.

[i]I'm telling you Teal'C if we don't find a way out of this soon I'm gonna loose it. Loose it, it means go crazy, nuts, insane, bonzo, no longer in possession of ones faculties, 3 fries shor |

Yes I think instead of having the diversity that makes EVE such a great game we should just split the world up so that all the traders are on one server, all the pvpers on another, all the miners on yet another and so on. It would be so much better this way!

Originally, CCP said the server could support maximum 25k players. And since only 1/4th are on during peak hours, that means they expected to have a maximum of 100k subscribers before they would have to get another server. These numbers are from beta though. 
But, the record is about 10k players, and because of that there has recenetly been a lot of upgrades to the server. I doubt that would happen if CCP intended to split it to two servers any time soon.

In the world of MMORPGS unforutnaltely Eve is a bigh time newbie and has much to learn. It currently has a few thoushand subscribers (you) and has probably yet to see a penny in profit.
Now there are some pretty big old timers out there - SoE / Verant - how many servers does SoE / Everquest operate? - does it detract from the players experience? I think not with no so many subscribers.
Did SoE / Verant go down the PvP / no rules root? Well yes they did, similar ideas to CCP - there are 3 PvP servers in Everquest - they ARE THE THREE LOWEST POPULATION SERVERS IN THE WHOLE GAME - a morons paradise.
This is why a propose a server spit now.

( Does a Dr Evil voice ) How about NO?!?
I hate to see all the rifts between the 'griefers/carebears' and all the finger pointing and placard waving etc. The point we miss sometimes is that Eve is a community, we are all part of that community, so really if we can't get along in the same universe then Eve has failed.
I think if people want 100% safe areas to get on and mine, build things and research stuff in peace and quiet then fine , let them have areas where they can be left to get on with whatever without being forced into conflict with other players ie empire space.
Both sides need to accept that there are different playstyles within Eve, and stop trying to force their playstyle on the others. Coming into 1.0 space to kill non combat oriented players and therefore force them into non consensual pvp is 'griefing', and also highly unnecessary.
The non combat oriented players don't come into 0.0 space and try and force everyone to mine or research blueprints, so why do some pvp combat oriented players insist on forcing their playstyle on others?
A game of chess is far more enjoyable when both parties actually want to play a game of chess, but if you bust in on someone who is trying to cook a meal or watch tv and demand a game of chess at gunpoint, it's not going to be enjoyable for both is it?
I think the suggestion that we need a server split is ludicrous, what we do need however is a bit more community spirit and a bit more tolerance of one another.

These games are rather old aren't they? A good 5 years or so?

No need for a new server, if u want to be relativly safe then stay in +0.5 systems. Eventually u may want to try something new, then u can always go to less secure space.

EVE is unique with only one server.
If people dont want to play an all out PvP game, there are lots of other mmorpg to switch to.
Everything is PvP in this game.
I for one would leave, if this game waht divided into a agent mission/mining/trading shard and a pure PvP shard.
A game have to contain certain risk in order for it to be fun.

I've never played Ever***** personally, but maybe it's just because the pvp was bad or something? EVE isn't Everquest, the world is already split up into the 'safe' part and the 'dangerous' part, why split the server entirely? I don't think the single world is why EVE doesn't have as many subscribers as Everquest does, I think that's due to the fact that CCP doesn't have anywhere near the advertising money that Sony did.

This game need ALOT more players. I think the universe of EvE is just too big for its playerbase when you consider the alts, people playing with two account at the same time and players afk in stations. You realize that theres not that many people actually active in the game and maybe 90% of the 0.0 space is empty. I just don't see the need for another server really.
