I started EVE on release day. Back in the day we used to farm NPC spawns in 0.0 space for mega cash and hundreds of cans of decent loot. In a given day you could sit in a 0.0 belt, just you and your A.D.D. and kill NPCs for hours....often having to call in help for more ammo and assistance in stopping the spawn rate.
THEN the first update came. HOLY FLYING MONKEY TURDS! The whole game changed. Warping into a belt meant 8 NPC cruisers were going to instantly spawn RIGHT NEXT TO YOU and each one hit like a Dread. I have never seen so many Battleships lost so quickly. My corp tried to mine in a 0.0 belt and lost 3 Battleships and every single industrial that entered the belt. CCP had the AI cranked up on smack. EVEmail was down, Bookmarks were unmakable, and NPC cruisers had mad mad hit points. The complaints were deafening.
So enjoy QU and thank your lucky stars.

Maybe so, but that was before EVE became a "Premium Product".

So the moral of the story is - the crowd cried and ccp made it right? Since none of the issues you mention in your post exist now I mean.
Way to silence a crowd there might. Do you normally fight fires with gasoline? |

Oh how I LOLed
I played in beta, and back then you had constant automatic ISK income, and whenever you fought another player each client made it look like their player had won, only synchronising with the server again after there was no risk of breaking the illusion. And there were no forums, so when the devs added actual loss to EVE, we had to go to Iceland in person to make our complaints and threaten to quit.
In three feet of snow, not that that is an exceptional complaint in those areas |

So because in the early times of Eve when there was an expansion things would be real bad, but becase they aren't as bad as that now we should be happy? STFU
I hate whines however I also hate paying for a product which for the last few days has meant that I have missed out on alot in Eve. Yet I am still paying for it and as far as I am aware CCP have not accepted there is a problem publically.
When people pay for a product i.e. Eve, and it is defective then people have the right to complain, I am not moaning on about how my missiles suck so I have to adapt, or how my ship is so many ms slower than before etc, I am complaining about how my Game soesnt ****ing work properly, and I have been given no indication of how long ccp think it will be before it's resolved.
No I don't need any cheese to go with my whine, I won't be suspending all my accounts, I won't be giving you my stuff and I am posting with my main.
Just don't complain about people whining when it's one of those rare occasions where they have a right to complain. |

I knew it wouldn't take for for a whiner to come along and give the "I hate paying for a product that...blah blah blah" Yes, please STFU.
Don't whine about EVE or QU. EVE is an amazing game, yes amazing.
On another point, I went to the first Fan Event in Iceland...yes I went from Ohio to Iceland.
So don't whine...you have no idea how expensive a 7&7 costs in Iceland! |

Just a little civility goes a long way or are we reverting to primal behavior? Please stop telling ppl to STFU in a forum. Grow up and behave like adults please.

Wow, you sure are full of /emo energy. Please post pics of how you've cut yourself because Eve's usual post-patch issues have ruined your entire life.
Better yet, shut it.
Kthx. |

This. CCP needs to know they've screwed up, and hopefully they'll fix it. |

To put it quite frankly, some people take gaming way to seriously, sit back and enjoy the game. Don't be n_a_z_is about every detail you don't like. [I was surprised that the word with the '_' in it is counted as profanity] I personally believe they have done a spectacular job from what it used to be years ago. Further more, a 400 man company isn't that massive for a game of this caliber; that's counting the janitors, the errand boy, the working mom that makes them hot coco when it blizzards. dang I got off topic... anyway, they can only do so much at one time. Cut em' some slack
