There is a pole btw 50% like it 30% don’t like it 20% don’t care, but the number of participants are too few for it to be accurate only a few hundred people voted. ---

and how many people voted? Only people who care are the ones here the rest are just going to quietly do what they want to do. Carry on playing or play something else. It will play out the way it plays out. Will be hard to find the fight so… lets fight in HS ---

How about adding 10 new alien types who are not humanoid? With sets of their own ships and structures all over Eve. Give us new modules and Missions. Epic arcs that introduce people to wormholes? Make a T2 salvager drone. Invent some content that people like. If you want to grow your player base, you need to cater to your players. Most people come to this game to have a good time. Most people come to this game to hang out and chat with friends while flying around. What your doing is not going to make the majority happy. And most of you PVP dudes have crabbing accounts , so shut the Heck up already. I don’t believe the people saying that they are subbing more accounts. I believe the people who build everything the game consumes. I don’t mind if you drive the value of my hanger up though. I like watching my assets value go up with minimal activity. If you really want to bring more people to the game invent some NEW content people like. ---

Also for those saying that eve will die when all the guys with their 20 accounts leave are forgetting that eves population has been stable for many years now, but the best thing about that is back a few years many people only played 1 account, so that means there was a lot more people playing eve many years ago with fewer accounts each. I wouldn’t be surprised if it was because of the stagnating nature of current nullsec that made these people leave initally, it just has to change before it’s too late. It would be tragic if tranquility suffers the same fate as serenity which is dead now, for those who don’t know. A whole chinese server dying because people where left to farm in peace until they had so many capitals that they used it to oppress every other alliance in eve and nullsec became owned by a single entity killing everything. This change could reduce the amount of people playing with 20 accounts each and increase the amount of solo users coming back to eve and new guys that love adventure instead of safety empire builder online. ---

I don’t say nothing pro or contra, I adapt the changes of game and try to find out how will I survive this and what I’m going to do after local disappear. It will be worse or better for me? Idk but I think radical changes raise up the pisswarm water and players have to rethink their oppurtunities and most important it need game don’t become linear and boring. So let’s see it. ---

This will have a huge impact on botters and cloaky campers. Round about way of solving the problem but whatever, I’m kinda exited about it. Lots of Carebears will just dock up and wait it out, though, so we’ll see how effective it is. ---

FYI just a forwarding for those that are pumped about Ratter\Miner hunting this weekend expect the hunt to be rather lackluster. They will dock up and prob take the weekend off. Hunting will get better as they feel the profit pinch. ---

Because you are already in system and can’t even be caught by gate camps. So they will be able to dscan and find targets and the players in those systems have no means of protecting themselves. They can’t protect the gates because they are already in system, and they can’t hunt down the cloaky camper because cloaks are still 100% safety. Amusing that the people who want less safety still support something that grants complete safety. ---
