DUST Search - 3x SP event miscommunication: Not entitled but nonetheless irritated

Aside from the fact that I lost untold SP from the fact that CCP failed to communicate effectively the duration of this event.

I find it also irritating that this means CCP gave players one single day to reach full SP cap, TWICE IN A ROW!?
So... If someone was either busy early in the week (Or planned around getting 3x SP through Thursday like they told us) that person is potentially screwed out of like 1.2 million SP or something.

Which is another reason most of us thought the event would run "Through" Thursday. Because it would be ludicrous to have two consecutive days of expecting players to be able to reach two week's worth of SP cap. One of which being 3x as high as the other.

wtf?

So who does this event benefit. The neck beard elite who have no jobs, no finals, no commitments on a Tuesday and Wednesday? Leaving other customers behind in the dust, This was NOT a good move CCP.

This was bad for the community and bad for the game.
Honestly just tell me, did you really think this through?

This was bad for the community and bad for the game. Honestly just tell me, did you really think this through? 1.) The 3x SP event was announced several times very clearly, and I would have thought it was assumed that it was ending yesterday. 2.) The 3x SP event does not increase the amount of time it takes to gain the SP in question. Your cap is still about 200,000 SP, Boosters (and this event) just increase the amount on top of what you would normally make unboosted. 3.) Its as simple as this, you had one whole week to to gain the triple SP for a weeks worth of SP, You had one additional day to get as much as you could. Do jobless people benefit from the extra day? sure I guess, but what does it matter to you? how many people actually hit there cap yesterday? I know I didn't. You just need to chill out dude, you missed out on some SP? so what, who cares? you'll make it eventually if you play the game, don't get mad at some people because they have a few million more SP then you do. I have 10,000,000 SP right now and im not angry at the 1 out of 10 guy who has 1.2 million, so really what im trying to say is harden up, theres no need to make a thread that is essentially the same as crying over spilled milk.
