I've been reading trough some of you...Hey mate! I've been reading trough some of your designs. You have great ideas. Some of your posts were listed together with mine (as well as many other bloggers) in Blog Banter 30 by Seismic Stan - Freebooted. It is a shame that I never got to read your posts back then. But recent days I decided to correct this and I started reading all the post that I've been missing. <br /><br />I was really surprised when I read about your Mothership ideas. The fact that I am also thinking over a Mothership concept and have also named it Athena is a strange coincidence and I like it. I will show you some concept art when it is finished. <br /><br />Right now I am looking for some allies to join my cause: the Black Pearl Project. <br /><br />Check out the link. I hope you like what you see. <br /><br />http://www.veskin7.blogspot.com/2012/03/what-is-black-pearl-project.htmlVeskin Sentinelhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13617430024768439852noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6326550626410742925.post-63244927685346271752011-10-13T21:49:20.369+02:002011-10-13T21:49:20.369+02:00Sessym wrote: "What can we do to prevent scan...Sessym wrote: "What can we do to prevent scandals to break out? Shouldn't we try and be more constructive? Shouldn't we HTFU?"<br /><br />As much as I can appreciate the sentiment behind these questions, forum warriors and pod pilots alike have put countless hours into submitting bugs, writing up rational feedback on patches (and proposed patches) and even participating in CCP-guided mass testing. And to what end?<br /><br />Furthermore it may seem like the barbarians are about to bridge over the castle moat with so many angry forum posts, but there is a ton of quality content published by EVE subscribers for CCP to digest.<br /><br />As much as EVE subscribers would like to feel in-control of their existence in the EVE MMO, CCP is the legal and practical owner of all that which took, takes and will take place in EVE.<br /><br />It is CCP's responsibility to manage and own the EVE IP. If they chose to accept input from their customers at various points along the path towards a project deliverable, then they are probably doing the right thing. CCP is in no way obliged to do this though.<br /><br />As we have seen over the past few years, CCP has made arbitrary decisions that have tremendous impact on their customers. In such cases, sometimes CCP uses misdirection. Sometimes they remain silent on a particular question. Sometimes they mock their customers ($1k jeans, etc.). <br /><br />Hilmar's letter of apology was welcome. But it may be too little, too late when it comes to regaining the trust of EVE service subscribers so that they give two sh*ts about truly contributing towards a better gaming environment.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
