Thomas Jay	Posted - 2008.10.13 23:33:00 - [61] Good Job CCP I don't see how your going to maximize money when half your player base is telling you BYE BYE to there alt accounts. 1. You screwed us over with the GTC's 2. Your Losing at the minimum 1 account per player. 3. I have no idea how this is "max out your income" you will be losing money. Amazing Marketing Idea.
Admiral Frools The Illuminati. Pandemic Legion	Posted - 2008.10.13 23:34:00 - [62] This was so worth waiting the 6 hours for, I mean really Hey guys, we've had this bug for 5 years that we haven't fixed (and yet know about 100%) but now we've decided to fix it, it's purely coincidence that we've decided to do this just after the power of two and the GTC nerfs, I PROMISE YOU
Fred Ayurveda	Posted - 2008.10.13 23:34:00 - [63] Originally by: Inanna Zuni It will be interesting in a few months to check the status of all the people who have gone "OHNOES!!!11!!!! I'M QUITTING" and see just how many are still in game. This is a long overdue closing of a loophole that let people benefit unfairly and I for one am very happy with it. IZ You're scum, shitting on your fellow players to the benefit of a greedy, out of touch company. Enjoy your trips to Iceland.

Itzena GoonFleet GoonSwarm	Posted - 2008.10.13 23:34:00 - [65] Originally by: Avon Hey, your bug... Skills continue training even if you are logged off or if your account is inactive I found it in the player guide. You guys better get in there and ninja-edit it.

LordSwift INTERSTELLAR ENTERPRISE Final Retribution Alliance	Posted - 2008.10.13 23:35:00 - [67] Originally by: Suga H "maintaining a large number of customers that weren't paying us regular subscriptions." Except that they had to pay if they wanted to use the character at any point in the future. Meaning people could take breaks and not be screwed out of time or money. "There was a way to progress a character in EVE without an active subscription" Ghosting Gal BS V didn't get me anything. I didn't advance any further in the game. Training the skill didn't buy me any capital ship skills. It didn't buy me a Kronos. It didn't earn me anything, it simply saved me time, and money, and allowed me to afford to be active on a second account. When I resubbed with the first account, I didn't log on with anything new, other than the ability to train another skill (however without the ability to afford it, having not been active on that account). "Players now have to pay a subscription for characters to have them progress" They had to anyway. Now they have to pay to allow time to pass. And that is how it should be. Pay to train. You dont pay your character does not train skills.
Iraf Thaiberd GoonFleet GoonSwarm	Posted - 2008.10.13 23:35:00 - [68] Edited by: Iraf Thaiberd on 13/10/2008 23:36:45 you have got to be kidding me unintended? REALLY? UNINTENDED? http://www.eve-online.com/guide/en/g615.asp Quote: Skills continue training even if you are logged off or if your account is inactive (in the second scenario you can't change skill training, though) IT'S LISTED IN YOUR PLAYER GUIDE Your customer service continues to become worse and worse edit: I see that this has already been posted. A bunch of us immiedately noticed this (because we'd often advertised it as a feature to friends) but you weren't aware that you were selling this game on this "unintended" feature? You're not fooling anyone, and this dishonest crap is just making the situation worse.
Cailais Amarr VITOC	Posted - 2008.10.13 23:35:00 - [69] Overall the release of this change was badly handled, and quite possibly badly considerd. There's little doubt the 'upsurge' of ghosting is a direct result of withdrawing 30 day GTCs and of course the time of year (students returning to courses etc etc). Concerning times for EVE Online I think. C. Originally by: Tarminic Your continued whining is somewhat diminished by your continued willingness to give your money to CCP.
ZeroGasam	Posted - 2008.10.13 23:35:00 - [70] I havnt been around long, maybe 6 months but being able to one let one of my 3 accounts lapse for awhile whle training a skill, was one of the better things about eve. most of the time 2 or 3 where up and going (my wifes, and my alt's or mine) and would rotate out. now with this I cant do that anymore, so I am giving my corp mates all my stuff I got over the last few months, and quitting eve now. -3 Accounts

Sarin Adler Caldari Dark Shadow Cartel	Posted - 2008.10.13 23:36:00 - [73] Lies CCP. $$$ I hope you fail and lose money with this movement, cheers. --- Alts, the root of all evil.
Avon Caldari Black Nova Corp Band of Brothers	Posted - 2008.10.13 23:36:00 - [74] Originally by: Maria Huana http://www.eve-online.com/features/ ?????? Offline is not the same as inactive. The player guide is where they mention training on inactive accounts. Eve-Online: The Text Adventure
Aganola Amarr Hungarian Riflemen Regiment	Posted - 2008.10.13 23:36:00 - [75] Originally by: Malcanis Originally by: Ivor Gunn Originally by: Avon If you weren't paying for them all at the same time anyway, who cares? Becauise now it'll go from 4 accounts active for 6 months of the year to 1 account active at the most. Best case scnario is that CCP have halved their income from that player. To use the analogy from the blog: snowflakes. expand that to 1000 players and ccp's income has just taken a sizable hit. A loophole that CCP devs have referred to as a feature... http://support.eve-online.com/Pages/KB/Article.aspx?id=167 excerpt: Quote: EVE has a unique approach to character advancement. Your account has the ability to train one character at a time no matter whether you're online or not, so if you start a training session before you go to sleep it will continue its advancement in real time while you are sleeping. This bonus comes at the cost of only being able to train one character at a time per account. ----------------------------------------------- "I do not belive in reicarnation...

Lubomir Penev Section XIII Tau Ceti Federation	Posted - 2008.10.13 23:36:00 - [76] Funny how the balance argument disappeared, could you not be honest the first time around? As for unsubscribed people loading your db, you know you have a pretty technical audience right? -- I'm done whining about AFs, it looks like they are making them right \o/

Argentis Azure The Greater Goon GoonSwarm	Posted - 2008.10.13 23:36:00 - [79] Quoted from the Player guide: Skills continue training even if you are logged off *or if your account is inactive* http://www.eve-online.com/guide/en/g615.asp Bug, you say?
D4RT N3RDiUS	Posted - 2008.10.13 23:37:00 - [80] CCP IS NOT THE BUG/PROBLEM IS YOUR ATTITUDE AND YOU ARE MAKING ONE BIG MISTAKE PPL DOESNT TRUST YOU NO MORE ... SHAME ON YOU...
Celardore Gallente Terminal Logic	Posted - 2008.10.13 23:37:00 - [81] Originally by: Col Carter ...separating the product from the subscriber is perhaps a means of crowd control My gosh... Crowd Control Productions. Never before have I understood the name so well.

Molten Steel 19th Star Logistics	Posted - 2008.10.13 23:38:00 - [85] I call BS & would also like to nominate this post/blog as worst damage control attempt ever... You are a greedy money chewing monster - FACT. But it's also a company. We make a product, sell it, get salaries and then continue maintaining the product and making it better. You say it yourself - you are a company and your primary objective will always be to make money off our addiction to internet spaceships. Don't play this off as a balance issue or anything else. Have some bloody balls and just be frank about this. You'd still get smacked by most people but that's more because this is an absolutely ******ed change and whomever in your accountance-department came up with this idea should be fired, then rehired just so you can fire him again. Again -1 account (someone should count this btw)
Ariah Constantine	Posted - 2008.10.13 23:38:00 - [86] ''There was a way to progress a character in EVE without an active subscription'' Doesn't actually matter because you have to pay the subscription fee to start training a skill in the first place. I see no sense in this.
Tappits Priory Of The Lemon Atlas Alliance	Posted - 2008.10.13 23:38:00 - [87] Edited by: Tappits on 13/10/2008 23:38:17 ? ---------------------------------------------- Pro BOB????? I fail At forums

You guys better get in there and ninja-edit it. HUGE BUG OMG ITS A BUG OHH WAIT (thinks to self) though you guys said this was a feature? SOO confused.
Chaos Incarnate Faceless Logistics	Posted - 2008.10.13 23:38:00 - [89] Also, for those of you who'd like the silver lining to this raging shitstorm, the prices of GTCs will probably go down from people not supporting a group of alt accounts via ghosting __________ Cannot read from face Abort, Retry, Fail?
Pinel Gallente Federal Navy Academy	Posted - 2008.10.13 23:38:00 - [90] This "bug" was listed as a feature in your own damn player guide/manual. That makes no sense...
