All I can say is it’s a good thing for the paychecks of the Marketing types who think up lazy, cheap events like this that people can’t just unsubscribe for the associated time frame. What a sad load of ad hoc justifications, too, prepared all by Marketing. Where is that online traffic vs. the 2008 figures, on an average? First 2 weeks of two hand shrug DDOS lost, and now two weeks of PVP puppies roaming about trying to hump you leg. You’ve made the game impossibly complex for anything but cannon fodder and griefers in the first few YEARS of play, and you are now reaping the whirlwind. ---

> [@LiuNiclole\_Davout](#): > > You’ve made the game impossibly complex for anything but cannon fodder and griefers in the first few YEARS of play, The learning curve is well-known, since 2003. If you join a corp/alliance that is also routinely involved in pvp - and has a good Ship Replacement Program - you can reduce the period of being cannon fodder to mere months - if one is willing to learn. Living e.g., in nullsec can change the whole perspective on the game, for the better. ---
