Hey do not just throw everything away. When you give me some assets i will keep them, work with them and give them back to you when you come back. These threads always make me sad when people just say “■■■■ it”. These are assets they worked/played/invested a lot of hours, read wikis or chatted to get them. I have more ISK to know what to do with it. ---

Always a sad state of affairs to see a long time player say they’re quitting. Don’t throw away all the hard work and time that was invested, definitely don’t liquidate assets or biomass character, just set a long skill training queue and take a break from the game, then come back rested and continue where you left off or try out a new career path… ---

**You know it’s only a stand alone event.** If your not interested in it then keep doing what ever it is you do and I’m guessing you won’t even know it’s their. Quitting over this is like quitting because you don’t like mining, nobody’s forcing you to do it. Oh and games evolve and change over time they have to, to remain healthy. If they stay the same they stagnate and will eventually die. CCP as far as I understand it will make us probe for this content so it’s not even going to be in our faces, unlike the Christmas event with storms moving about with their environmental effects and sites open for us to just warp too. ---

Great way to leave, I dare to say, the proper way! You can ignore people in forums, thanks for the idea I just realised. Gix\_firebrand is a boring alt, he thinks he’s some forum advocate. Good luck, I agree with you, but I’m staying for the lulz, ofc I don’t put any effort anymore so my care level is low. The only hope for EVE is trusting PA (I’m stoopid) letting some devs work on EVE core and finishing microservices migration and future overhauling the engine, WHICH I do not believe for real.

I got my first taste for griefing when I was still a little kid, by wasting teenagers’ quarters playing versus mode in Marvel vs. Capcom in seedy arcades. I was simply too young for them to physically hit, although a couple of total psychos did it _anyway_ (the same people who later became high-sec miners in EVE, most likely).
