Do you hate the lag in EVE as much as I do?
If your answer is yes, I have a solution to our shared dilemma.
I propose we help CCP upgrade their servers by pooling our collective isk into purchasing a metric sh*tload of
Co-Processor I's
to use in upgrading their server nodes. I think about 2500 co-processors should be a good start.
If you want to help in this effort, you can either send myself a donation to purchase a co-processer or two with (going rate is 14,000 ISK per), or contract co-processors to myself in game and I will collect and package them together for CCP and ship them off via interbus to Iceland.
All donations for this charity project are appreciated and will be tallied in this thread.
Thank you for your time fellow pilots. o7

Confirming that the ISK is to be sent to Haradgrim
Disregard the profiteer my fellow pilots, he obviously does not care about the CCP as I do. Donation should be sent to Caractacus Potts, the only legitimate Financial Secretary for the CCP Server Upgrade Charity Fund.
Together we can help CCP and help ourselves!

I thought about tech II CPU upgrades, but I am not sure what level of Electronic upgrades that CCP is trained to yet, so decided to play it safe.

i see what you did there 
I have now officially run out of alts to give myself co-processors with. I guess it is up to the rest of the eve community to provide the co-processors to meet the charity goal *shudder*

Thank you Amastat, your generous donation has gone to the purchase of 71!!! more Co-processors for CCP. Someday there may be a fleet battle out in the rim somewhere that will take place much much smoother thanks to your help.
EVE would benefit from more players like yourself, as would this charity!

Thank you for the kindly donation Goremageddon Box
Feng Schui, the use of Hypersynaptic Fibers is a tad overkill for this basic upgrade we are aiming for. However, if you can put together a proposal and method to build CCP a supercomputer, perhaps out of your Hypersynaptic Fibers as well as some Quantum Processors and some Superconductors then I would be perfectly willing to provide my financial management services in aiding you in procuring the necessary components to create such a super computer.

Unfortunately I am at my work computer currently and can't log into the game to confirm these posted donations, however I appreciate all of the support and am hoping for the best!
Wannabehero - 1,000,000 ISK
Roguehalo - 35,000,000 ISK!!!
Lord Seath - 500 Co-Processors on contract!
This should put us at well over the goal of 2500 Co-Processor I's !!!!! *cheer
I will take this opportunity to reaffirm the fact that this is not a scam, there is no deceit involved, I will be packaging and donating these CPU-upgrades to CCP as a care-package to assist in upgrading the EVE servers. No this is not a licensed charity, but rather a private good-samaritan organization and bound to all regulations thusly.
Sadly, interbus does not ship to Iceland, so I now require everyones' assistance in helping decide which Dev or GM in-game would be the proper recipient of the "CCP Server Upgrade Charity Fund". That lucky representative will get to act as proxy for CCP and distribute these Co-processors as necessary.

Personally if I was the OP, I'd contract these to Tanis corp or something. Then in a way, they ARE going to CCP.
Thank you Amastat, I hadn't considered just contracting the Charity package to Tanis corp. I will look into that.
Here I was just thinking along the lines of CCP Wrangler or CCP kieron, not sure who was the proper Dev team member.
Also, glad you like the thread

Well, all the current donations have been tallied and the number comes in at a whooping 3198 Co-processors!
A great deal of thanks to all of you my fellow pilots for helping me in achieving this goal o7
I am now undertaking the process of collecting all of the co-processors together in one spot so they can be packaged up. I will keep you all posted.
