Yo, Mr. CCP! Activity Tracker - Suicide ganking and Wars

“Mr. CCP” refers to the collective of decision makers at CCP hf. and NOT specifically to one single department/section/team or person/employee of aforementioned company. Seriously.

This ‘s a friendly reminder as always expressed through my semi role playin’ EVE character. I’ve been readin’ through articles about this activity tracker as I’ve failed findin’ any more official words said by a CCP spokesperson directly. ‘t seems to be all just interviews mentionin’ fanfest and sadly I ain’t got the time lookin’ through all the videos. 've tried google, and google only gave me articles from news sites.

No damn clue how you’re goin’ to implement this, so I’m postin’ this to make sure that some things aren’t magically “forgotten” by “accident” and to remind you of 'em before you put up a dev blog. When it’s up and there’s no sign of any of the below, someone’s gonna get rather sad eventually.

  • Ganked your first pod!
  • Ganked your first ship!
  • Ganked your first miner!
  • Ganked ONE HUNDRED PODS!
  • Ganked ONE THOUSAND PODS!
  • Evaded the faction police for one thousand times!
  • Your first disco!
  • Your first war declaration!
  • Killed your first war target!
  • Stole your first loot!
  • Emptied 100 yellow wrecks!
  • Destroyed an MTU
  • Destroyed an MTU worth over 10 million
  • Stole someone’s mission objective
  • Killed your first moron who fell for your suspect trap
  • AFK Cloaked for more than ten hours in one sitting
  • No clue how to include scamming into these.

You get the message. These’s ain’t just needed, they’re (more or less of course) ■■■■■■■ required to be in the list of recognized activities, otherwise you’d be tellin’ us gankers, war deccers and thiefs that it’s not part of the recognized game play and doesn’t deserve to be tracked.

It’s all about the message ya’d be sendin’ and that’s why I’m tellin’ ya not to forget ‘em. After years of neglectin’ high sec you’d be well off not forgettin’ the activities that made this game grow in the first place, and ya know damn well that without the likes of us, without “BE THE VILLAIN”, without can flippers recruiting newbros and without all the other things that made highsec alive and active ya’d not even be sittin’ there readin’ this.

Cheers mates and thanks for your cooperation.

Alright… so you just want them to intentionally forget these things on purpose?

Yes. At least then we have hard proof we can point to.

Well spotted, man. Very well spotted.

Not only personal activity trackers, but global ones. Like the MER but with pvp, wardecs, and crimewatch-related actions.

Ganking can be tracked - imperfectly - through out of game means (zkillboard => CONCORD kills, thanks for nothing, CCP!), but it would be nice to know how many characters have gone suspect in highsec, how many in lowsec, how many bumping attempts (measured by ships initiating warp and not warping within twice the normal time?) again with a breakdown between HS/LS/NS/WH bumping, how many wardecs, how many kills during wardecs.

I don’t think the game can track scams, but that would be really cool if it could, too.
