I don’t think CCP realizes how bad this sounds to anyone who has ever done toasting in EVE.

Yeah, because ‘toasting’ didn’t have any meaning or definition before your brief experience in Eve Online…

This generation and their recency bias… smh.

Yes, the world came into existence the minute you were born. Yep.

Nothing wrong with some some good toast…

I am well aware of the original meaning of “to toast”. But a company that introduced this toasting as one of the more annoying features of their product, it’s hardly recency bias but rather contextual awareness. 🙂

Making mountains out of molehills, aren’t we?

**CCP is toasting the future of EvE**.

That you try and make it to be something different is not only cringe but totally out of order.

Another pointless thread…

I hope they do because a toasted future would be very befitting of this word choice.

I am aware of the expression to toast something. But you make it seem as if it has a specific meaning in EVE.
