Congrats for killing the game. Do everyone a favor, stay an EVE and kill that game off as well til you have no choice but to play something else that will not allow you to do the things you did here.
This game was fun before you brought your dead corpse in the mix. SO everyone is going to DESTINY, a game that is way better than this as well as if you guys decide to do the same thing I'm happy to say you will not be able to.

Epiphany, I just had an epiphany.
Why the hell are we mad anyone? This is, using caps lock here, NOTHING BUT A VIDEOGAME!!!! Why are we (including myself with this post) wasting our time calling out people, trolling,putting on a facade when in various situations not needed (EVERY CORPORATION IS GUILTY OF THIS POINT and notice I'd underlined that point), or spreading hate when we have much better things to do with our time? Do we live for the game of the game live for us? In other words who drives whom. Is this at the fault of players or at the fault of programing?
When I read my previous post I sounded like an adolescent female complaining about not having stuff when she is on the PMS cycle (sorry if I had offended any females there). Let us answer each question asked here.
- Why the hell are we mad at anyone?
Easy we the playerbase felt played. Stay with me on this one, we felt played since the PC passive ISK gain was taken out but to be fair it was a gamebreaking mechanic. It was rather unfortunate Kain took advantage of the situation with holding all districts under DNS. After he succeed in taking out the passive ISK gain he dismantled DNS and the alliance, made out with the ISK gained without any backlash. Anyone who had played PC before then has the feeling of being played just like the rest of the playerbase. The fault was not only at programing here, greed played a role too. Also keep in mind the the Goons not too long ago lost Billions of ISK with a big war in EVE which almost, keyword ALMOST dismantled them permanently. but was it at fault of the Goons? No, programing allowed for this and caused this to happen.

Looking at how people react in the game and on the forums, the basic answer would be that this is life. The detailed answer would be that people feel the need to be dominate whenever it would be in the workforce, the race track, or even the virtual world. It's human nature to claim dominance anywhere whatever the cost may be. But do not worry about how the Goons are doing for example. They are dominate in game but how are they in life? Some are in the workforce, some may be billionaires, some of them could be in college like myself, or they could not be doing anything at all. we do not know what the person(s) outside life may be. So the question to ask on top of this question would be, "If they do not know anything about me nor what my lifestyle is why are countless hours of my time wasted on figuring out their lifestyle"? Umm? Food for thought.
- Do we live for the game of the game live for us? In other words who drives whom. Is this at the fault of players or at the fault of programing?
The first question is a tricky one with a tricky answer. You as the person asking this question must find the answer for yourself. By living for the game, you are saying the game is more important than anything else in the world. For the people with like 40 million skillpoints this may or may not apply to them. Using myself as an example I have 41 million but was playing since Open Beta but my time to play was spread out after all my homework, projects and other things were done for my mechanical engineering major. So the real time to play was on the weekends if and only if my friends were not doing anything that upcoming weekend (This year it would be late Aug to late May next year).
The second question is a no brainer, this problem is due to faulty programming but at the same time it is due to the fault of high demand from players. A lot of what from that answer. Programming is not an easy task nor an easy field unless gifted at it. Put on top of that the constant nagging of players for things that should be here, should be nerfed, should be buffed, and so on so forth. I will let you the player(s) make up your own answer to that question
