CCP is open to feedback, and willing to tweak numbers. Unfortunately, the bittervets are less interested in providing constructive feedback, than they are in ranting, protesting, and trying to convince other miners that they should be angry and bitter too.
Don’t get mad over rumors, speculation, and numbers that aren’t even set in stone yet. Check things out on the test server. @ CCP_Paradox or CCP_Rattati in their respective threads (hyar and hyar). Ask them questions. Give feedback. Try to provide reasonable suggestions, and make compelling arguments for your proposed changes
I can’t promise you that they’ll listen, but I assure you that a well constructed argument to beef up barge/exhumer yields will be a lot more likely to gain traction than things like calling for devs to be fired.
And for anyone who is curious, I’m not disappointed in the mining community because they’re unhappy with the changes -I’m disappointed in them because the bitter vets have been throwing a tantrum, and doing everything in their power to poison the morale of other miners and newbros.
