As the recent news stated, we will disable the ability to train skills on a suspended account. Since this has caused a lot of debate we've decided to explain why we are making this change in a new Dev Blog by t0rfifrans: Why ghost training was disabled.

Pure, disingenuous bullcrap. If this was a bug you intended to fix, there's no earthly reason you waited this long. Shove it.

Would love to see a copy of the 'active subscriptions' chart right now..
You would have thought 50 pages in the first few hours was a big enough hint, but no - classic CCP PR at work here - just keep on rolling, oblivious to all..

..you'd better be real quick cleaning out the forums of historical CCP posts about this "feature" as it was, before you try to make out it is now a "bug".

Sudden surge of this? Seriously, CCP. Show us numbers. I'd like to see your proof: Hell, how can you prove it has been happening?

Its final then.
Either give us easier skill-training methods (like the already-demanded-for skill queue, even 1 skill deep would suffice) or expect the massive drop of customer satisfaction and the effect of lost subscriptions.
I myself will shout my dissatisfaction by not renewing my only account. Thank you for the time CCP, but your decision basically killed off one of the few great things about EVE to me, personally. -

Quote: Now a single customer that doesn't log into the servers may not weigh heavily on our database infrastructure, just as a single snowflake isn't that heavy, hardly a measurable quantity. But it's hard not to notice an avalanche if it hits you. And that's what was starting to happen in our database.

Nicely timed with Iceland's wider woes.
I actually thought this feature actually was a smart (and cheap) way of buying goodwill from CCP's customers. However I guess cash is king these days. |

So if this was reversed, every player paid there GTC and was online using them, no accounts offline ghost learning. Wouldnt this put more strain on the server again

Quote: # CCP noticed a surge in the trend and decided to fix the leak
That would be because you removed 30 day game time codes you moronic ****s.
Seriously. fire your ****ing marketing and accounts departments.
If you're under the impression this will do you anything but harm they're smoking all sorts of crack. And not the good crak either.

OK that's a lot more honest, at least. Foolish, but plausible.
So why the terribly insulting rubbish (the word I really want to use just comes out as asterisks) about "game balance" in the initial announcement?
Did it ever occur to you that maybe - just maybe - a lot of people are kind of insecure in their financial position at the moment, and they're cutting back on unnecesarry expenses right now?
Did it occur to you that it might be a good idea to give them an incentive to return?
Did it occur to you that increasing the perceived cost of an alt - with 2 days notice - just after you finished a promotion to get people to reate alt accounts might be seen as just a teeny tiny bit like, you know, a good old fashioned bait-and-switch?
Anyway, you're losing two intermittent subs from me. Get one of those accounts from Lehman brothers - he'll tell you how to turn that into a net gain, I'm sure.

Not to mention... What about the "unfair" advantage we older players got? How are you going to balance that out for new players?

Good riddence to all of you that are closing your accounts for good. More isk for me to make. Serves you right for having 3+ accounts. I enjoy my one character who can multitask and have a good time. For one monthly fee.
on a serious note, Yes CCP should of clamped down on this years ago. But everyone knows what CCP's Soon is like. Please transfer ur isk and stuff to me please. I will make good use of it

You don't suppose the recent surge you saw in this was people not having the extra cash for a game subscription hoping to come back in after the worldwide financial difficulties?
Doing this won't gain those players back, it will lose them. Irrevocably.

Did you just lock a 50 pages thread of customer feedback? Nice job.
I gonna repeat myself, only time will tell if this is financially good or bad for EVE/CCP. Personally, I will spend less money for EVE.
/sarcasm on 3 chars per account is deeply wrong as well. Allowing only one char per account should tripple CCP's revenue.

good luck with that - unless they have a mod account at chribba's site too...
