Please CCP, create a website or in-game tool to replace “Zkillboard” and “goonpraisal”. It’s ridiculous that someone has to do your job. It’s getting worse every day to navigate and search on Zkillboard.
You have the ability to create something that allows you to search and makes it much more attractive to do PvP. Let’s see if with the repurchase of EVE you’ll go back to working properly or finish sinking the game!
Or just scrap it entirely…
They purposely allow players to make their own sites and apps for this stuff, most games do this. It’s part of allowing a community to grow.
Or they could scrap the API that enables zkillboard…
CCP couldn’t handle mobile app for it’s own game, so what are talking about?!
You could also just ask zkill for functionality you are looking for as well.
Give the guys some money, they’ll make a website and rent a decent server instead. This one’s full of ads shoving cookies up our asses. Letting the community do their job is difficult; I only play for zkill to see the tears there, and they even changed the comments section to emoticons. CCP has a great opportunity to highlight PvP simply by creating a decent website that generates competitiveness.
The search functionality never worked properly, and besides, it’s not their obligation to provide this service. I am charging the company that is charging me for a service not rendered
Why build and maintain a website when CCP/FC can build an API to support their community and so that their community can build better and cheaper tools than CCP would?
Because it doesn’t work!!! Have you seen how bad Zkill is? Do you know why the owner of evepraisal gave up? Charging for something he did for pleasure, CCP gets paid to do it and doesn’t do it!! They should at least give financial support to those who do it!!
Zkill is providing that service though, so you can ask them to add what it is you are seeking. FC is not going to push out content creators, so I recommend dealing with those that make Zkill or make your own. FC is under no obligations to provide a zkill like service.
Stop sucking up to CCP, I didn’t say they have an obligation, but they have a moral duty, and it’s a great opportunity to create fun content. The Zkillboard functionality that doesn’t work is the basic problem: it constantly has a full memory cache, freezes, and is slow. They (Zkillboard) have no obligation to fulfill any community requests. If I had the financial means to maintain a server and the knowledge to program and maintain a website, I wouldn’t be here complaining. Now, if you don’t agree with my idea, that’s fine, just don’t use the basic argument “If it’s bad, do it yourself”.
I’m not actually, I’m defending 3rd party websites/apps.
I do not experience these issues.
They don’t but if it’s asked enough they may, it will get you farther than trying to get FC to take over their niche.
I’m trying to give you solutions that are reasonable and actionable. If you don’t want to do it yourself, that’s on you, but at the very least you can make requests to the people who actually do the work…although it’s sounding like it’s something that even they might not be able to fix.
learn how to reply to someone without trying to use the code function.
I’ve never found zkill to be particularly slow or difficult to use.
You don’t actually need a “server” in the sense that you’re thinking, and I would be shocked if Claude Code can’t oneshot a basic killboard.
Zkill redisq API gets you all the same killmails, too.
no ! XD
“Hey CCP, write a whole website so I don’t have to use ad block”
FTFY!
Why is this even important to you to be ‘motivated’ to do pvp?
