Thank you for letting me go out in a blaze, CCP! I think this was the best way to go!

I love this- seriously, this is a wonderful way to go out if you’re really wanting to leave.

Fly safe wherever you may wind up.

Retiring or taking multiboxing to the next level… That’s the question for OP here 🙂

But surely a good use for your ISK. What do you plan to do with it? Sponsoring Eve University a new Outfit for their fleets or just blow it up?

Hey man that is truly awesome what you did and Im sure that guys family really appreciated it. Im a skin collector and didn’t get my chance to get them so im pretty envious. I assume youve been playing EVE for a long time and I was wondering if there was someway I could hook up with you to ask you some questions about your EVE experience. Its just something I do because I like learning about peoples different experiences in EVE. My discord is Guardian OTW #3070

Hope to hear from you soon

I feel quite conflicted here.

The OP has contributed to a cause I would support no matter what. But they have also contributed to huge parts of the community not being able to engage with this. A large part is CCP not engaging properly here, but community spirit would and should be a huge consideration. OP, I hope you feel happy with your choice.

I think it depends on what you’re planning to do with the SKINSs. Hitting the mark so quickly was great, but if it means that no one will ever be able to fly these SKINs, I think you’re taking the intended memory part away, which would be sad.

You should spread them out to others, who’ll use them.

Are you planning to sell or give away the SKINs? It would be a shame if thousands of these pretty SKINs would just collect dust on some inactive account. They should be used.

The fact that anyone thinks this person is actually retiring is laughable. This is nothing more than an attempt to show that they have a larger back account and will be profiting from this. The goal was going to be hit no matter what. Great cause for a great guy. RIP CCP Mankiller

However Much like the real world this great art work will only be accessible to those with massive bank accounts. Profiting Ingame off a charity fundraiser. Congrats I guess.
