First, not so large as you might think.  
Second, you can’t assume those changes would also be made along with ‘you can boosh capitals’. So you can’t assume the beneficial _effects_ of those changes.  
Third: capital move ops don’t tend to have that many people afk while multiboxing.

There’s no fixing EVE while injectors exist, no. And you _can_ burn down the stockpiles, and the supers, but you need to find ways to make the people who have it feel like they’re getting something for what they’re losing, some kind of impressive and really cool experience.

You can get away with _anything_ if you make taking the loss _fun_. But you have to put in the effort to find ways to make the loss something people feel is a worthwhile trade. Otherwise, you just lose customers.

Right. So if the guy who spent real money to inject up **RIGHT AWAY** particpated in those SP giveaways **BEFORE HE WAS PLAYING** …

When you need to appeal to the literally **impossible** to make your point…

Ok, enough of this crap.

**JUMP FREIGHTER HAULING JUST GOT ORDERS OF MAGNITUDE SAFER.**

## SAFER. AS IN MORE SAFE.

Here, let me demonstrate how:  
You take your Rapier and make a safe, well-off-grid from any structures or celestials. Sit cloaked. When you’re ready, decloak, light. JF jumps in. Covops webs it off into warp as it goes streaking toward station/citadel from an unexpected direction where the odds of any bubble EVEN IN NULL are freaking zero, and it docks up happily.

**Thirty whole seconds later** you recloak the Rapier.

OH NOEZ! SUCH DANGEROUS! MANY RISK!

Somehow you seem to have missed the last fifteen thousand posts or so on these boards. You can’t get away with sod all, because there’s only two things Eve players truly hate:

Change, and what they have right now.

There’s no ‘making it fun’ that isn’t going to cause exactly as much salt and apoplexy, so ripping the band-aid is probably the best approach in general. Hell, it’s not like anyone that’d ragequit over it is worth anything anyway.

Nope. Because the people being expected to lose things _aren’t being offered anything they consider fun_.

It’s just as valid to say ‘it’s not like anyone who’s quit over the game getting to this point is worth catering to, anyway’.

They’ve lost nothing but instant and broken intel, and gained an exciting new normal where they might have to _play the game_. I have exactly zero sympathy for them, and these aren’t people you could appease anyway.

So you say, but different opinions are not of equal worth, and I know who’s opinions I tend to value more. It’s rarely the whiny arse bears who are shocked and dismayed over not getting to opt out of all PvP by default. You may prefer to defer to the spodbrains, but that’ll have to be your choice.

Well, if I’m a guy running a company, and I have the choice of valuing opinions from two people, one who’s currently a paying customer with a dozen accounts and one who isn’t a paying customer _at all_, I know which one I’m listening to.

Yeah, I mean this guy running the company has made such amazing choices in that regard over the years. If your vision for Eve is just keeping the spodbrains and alienating the rest, Eve is _truly_ screwed.

I didn’t read the post you wrote about, and generalized my response with the phrase “the aspiring …” I will admit failure in these specific cases of new players/alts, SP farmers win.

But CCP has been on a tear of SP promotions lately, “raising all the boats.” The longer you play, the more likely it is that you will receive some SP you didn’t need to buy from another player. This has to statistically devalue SP, by some amount.

so just to provide this “valuable feedback”…  
giving cyno mechanics a make over is definitely not the worst idea, and i have seen a lot of interesting ideas from the community about it in recent months. how this idea made it into an actual proposed change is beyond me though. please go back to the drawing board on this and maybe ask the CSM for input.

It seems more like CCP is trying to tell us all - 15+ years of supporting their product is now worthless.

Not mine, but let’s face it, if you have the choice of catering to people who’ve kept paying, or catering to the people who’ve already demonstrated that when you do things they don’t like, they’ll quit and just keep bitching about a game they don’t play anymore…

It takes a fair amount of balls to make the harder call there. And this ‘_CHAOOOOOS!!!_’ horsecrap doesn’t qualify as ‘ballsy’. This is just _flailing_.

Sure. But if they don’t keep that up, that’s a 100% temporary thing that doesn’t have a long-term impact.  
And if they _do_ keep it up, congratulations, they’re hurting _their own bottom line_.

Which do you think they’ll do?

no, ya jump it to a station and dock, refit to ur highsec align fit, undock, align to gate, when at speed hit warp, wile speeding up just have ur key ready to hit dock on the station incase somethings drops you.

And that is only in low, in null ya use a citadel, ya know, those with tethering, jump wait 5s then dock.

No, because doing _that_ is what gets your covert cyno killed.

Because once it’s a covert cyno, it doesn’t show on the overview unless you’re where people will see you. Nobody will know you’re there until you come out of warp to dock.
