This is the biggest collection of sycophants I've ever seen. Most of you wouldn't care if anyone other than your precious Chribba was affected! _________________________________________________________

This game hasn't got enough space for all the vet egos.
The forums are not an accurate representation of the subscriber base, just the noisy ones.
He's right. This game is full of arrogant screwheads who only ever post "LOOK AT ME! LOOK AT ME!" like Chribba in this here thread. _________________________________________________________

You ever wonder why people respect Chribba? Because he's actually provided something that CCP themselves were unable to provide and STILL incapable of; he EARNED respect, which is much more than can be said about you, me and 90% of the devs now working at CCP.
That attitude is why this game has degenerated into ego stroking and ****waving. I've never seen a bigger collection of overfed egos and self-entitled people than this game's playerbase. _________________________________________________________

The game has always been ego stroking and ****waving, we have an entire forum dedicated to it
It's even worse now that people are acting as if CCP owes them something other than a month of playtime for their 15 bucks a month. If the game is so bad then stop paying them! Go play a game that is more in line with what you really want to play and leave the rest of us to a game that we actually enjoy! _________________________________________________________

It's not about chribbas veldnaught, its about CCCP and the fact the company seems to have a blind, deaf, dumb, ******ed paraplegic at the helm recently...
Then do us all a favour and stop paying that guy's paycheque. _________________________________________________________

Originally by: N1fty All those saying "Chribba is just another player" are wrong.
The fact that Chribba puts in huge amounts of time and money into the community as has been said.
But whats not been pointed out is that as he has shaped significant aspects of the community. Because of this theres almost a Chribba brand now and the Veldnaught was a part of that. That brand is collectively owned by the community, as an idea of whats good about Eve.
What I'm trying to say is that CCP didn't just remove a capital from highsec, they removed the communities flagship.
Do you think you're going to earn points for such a pathetic display? Just asking. _________________________________________________________

No they arn't.
t2 bpos --> Invention Skillpoints ---> New bloodlines and learning skill rewords. First Grab at resources ---> What? Anyone can take anyone elses resources, if they are incapable of taking them from the older owners than they dont deserve to own them.
You can't get BPOs through invention, only negative ME and PE copies. I guess starting with 800k more SP than the veterans did really balances things out when they have in excess of 60 million SP in most cases. (I quit for a while so I'm only at 50-something) It's hard when the old guys have more money, friends, ships, and skills than you.
I'm not complaining about any of that, it's all stuff you can actually earn in this game. Simply being older shouldn't mean you have influence on the development of the game. CCP markets the game to everyone, not veterans with gian egos. _________________________________________________________

Originally by: Alz Shado Might I suggest a response?
"A Week without Eve-Files/Eve-Search"
Simply disconnect what is perhaps the most vital pieces of Eve community kit. No more sigs, no more hosting the Territorial maps, no more easy-to-use search to make these forums into something barely more functional than a myspace page.
I think someone over at CCP just forgets how damn important you are to keeping their incompetent mess of a web presence functioning.
Never used either of those except for the territorial maps, and there are image hosting services all over the place. I didn't even know the name of the guy who ran those services, and didn't know it was the same guy who owned a high-security capital. _________________________________________________________

I'm glad that people with such an intricate knowledge of the game and its community are here, willing and able to provide their amazing insight into the issues at hand
With in excess of 100,000 subscribers why am I supposed to know anything about some guy who used to pull out a capital ship sometimes to show it off in a situation where it's nothing more than a novelty? _________________________________________________________

hahaha, man I have been thinking about that the whole time I've been enjoying this halarious thread. If the eve playerbase was as "hardcore" and "Cutthroat" as they want to believe they are over wow players, the responses from post 2-1000 would be asking for chirbra's stuff and telling him to "gtfo".
Two years ago that's what the response would have been. What has happened to this game to make its playerbase so carebear? _________________________________________________________

Somehow, I don't think Kage is a proper FRICK pilot. A proper FRICK pilot would know of their own corp videos, e. g. [VIDEO] Sharks With Frickin Laser Beams Presents: Elite and guess where it's hosted?
When I click a link and download a movie, how am I supposed to know who's providing it or that he owns(owned) a capital ship in high security? _________________________________________________________

Originally by: Cyberman Mastermind
I realize you're just trolling, but - what special privilege? It's not like only characters named "Chribba" can have a high-sec cap.
This was a retroactive change to remove any inconsistencies from the game that arose when capital ships were restricted to be built in low security systems only. If Chribba was immune to this then he would have been receiving special favours. Luckily CCP is not playing favourites and made the right choice. _________________________________________________________

Originally by: Dirk Magnum
Originally by: Dirk Magnum CCP has a history of rewarding individuals. Anyone who's ever won a unique ship for example. Also, anyone who's corp got a news entry devoted to it because of the corp's unique or innovative purpose within the game (Tchell and the Ninjas, for instance.) Chribba was being rewarded with High Sec caps (and apparently there were others who also still had them) because not only was he using them non-aggressively, but he was frickin mining with them. Mining. And of course on top of that there's all the services he offers and the fact that he's the only person in this game that most of us would trust with a third-party exchange.
mmyep
How does winning a unique ship compare to an everyday ship that just happens to be in a weird spot? _________________________________________________________

Originally by: Scagga Laebetrovo Personally I think items such as the Impoc/Fedathron should be attainable via the LP stores (at an extortionate price), but that's a completely different discussion.
You don't get it, do you?
Unique items is what the game makes interesting and special.
If everyone can get everything, then the game is dead pretty soon. Died because of boredom.
The high sec capitals are very few and rare. It was not like that they were abundant and causing troubles in any way.
They're not unique. At best they're the remnants of a patch that should have been cleaned up years ago. _________________________________________________________

Originally by: Verite Rendition Chribba, thank you for the information and I am extremely sorry this had to happen to you. You should have been the last person to lose their Veldnought, not the first.
In return I thank you for bringing this forward in such a thoughtful manner, and for sticking up for all high-sec capital ship pilots and not just yourself. I intend to return the favor.
---
I, like Chribba, am a Veldnought owner (come visit me in Stacmon some time). In the long time that I have owned my mining Phoenix, I have abided by CCP's requirements; I have never abused its power, I have served my role as an icon for the tourists, and in return I have been allowed to continue pulverizing the Veldspar of Stacmon. I worked hard to acquire my ship, and like some people have T2 BPOs and others have their Luxury Yachts, I have owned my ridiculous mining ship as my collectible item in this game.
I see nor know of any reason that these ships should be removed, certainly not now. These ships are the trophies of their owners, representing something fun and unique that many people in this game will never see. To put it bluntly these are the rocks in the sandbox; something that shouldn't be there, and yet they exist and make the sandbox notable and memorable. EVE is that sandbox.
And Chribba above all has put in an unparalleled amount of effort in to improving this game. It is with the utmost dissatisfaction and disapproval that the man who has done the most for the game gets the least in return, by being unfairly stripped of his prize possession. If there can be only one Veldnought, then without a doubt it should be his, but instead he is the first to lose.
My closing thoughts are these:
CCP, we have held up our end of the bargain. Will you be holding up yours?
Hey, now you can sell it to someone who will actually use it! _________________________________________________________

This, my friend, will be an awesome boost to piracy.
Yeah, as a pirate I welcome anything that makes this game more mainstream and accessible. I don't need to pretend I'm playing a "hardcore" game to enjoy it. _________________________________________________________

There is whining and there is honest discussion about a valid problem. This was a valid concern. Learn to understand the difference and you will enjoy the game that much more.
And then there's 30 pages of sycophants going "NOOOO MY PRECIOUS VELDNAUGHT T_T" _________________________________________________________

Originally by: Mikael Mechka Thank you CCP for doing the right thing. My faith in your views of the player community had been badly shaken by this incident. You have gone a long way to restoring that faith.
Thank you.
"The right thing" meaning "caving to pressure". _________________________________________________________

I doubt that your CEO would agree. FRICK tends to have more sense than you've shown here. If I were your CEO, you'd be a former member in 24 hours.
And that's why you're in a carebear corp. Luckily there are three character slots per account so it will be easy to create a war without involving my main. _________________________________________________________

Sounds like bait for a griefing petition really. And you've posted your intentions here for a nice record. 
As far as what corp I'm in... Assume all you want. The whole "don't judge a book by it's cover" thing. 
Can we institute an age requirement for this game to keep the immature children out?
What a world we live in where people think that declaring war is griefing. _________________________________________________________

Declaring war with the sole purpose of keeping him from undocking his cap ship is griefing if you ask me. Of course, children will be children.

Originally by: Falcon Troy He's a one man corp so war deccing him constantly without any goal or gain other than to interfere with his gameplay is griefing and is against the rules.
Better tell that to everyone who has ever declared war to disrupt operations or to ask for a ransom. _________________________________________________________
