I seriously hope this is trolling - or do you think half fixing problems brought back some 30,000 people?  |

I seriously hope this is trolling - or do you think half fixing problems brought back some 30,000 people? You completely missed the point and are also an imbecile. Please, if you honestly think that CCP is doing that just to pad the numbers, show some proof. Dear god, these forums have gone to being worse than the Eve General Discussion when it comes to intelligent people.
Please, oh mighty one, give us your scientific explanation of why the population of dust jumped by 30,000 people over night. We want to hear your grand wisdom that makes you so much better then the rest of us.
Or if you're being sarcastic come out and say so - why do people think there tone is carried well in context?
Please say you're being serious and think we're tinfoil hating - I do love trolling fanboys. |

Please, if you honestly think that CCP is doing that just to pad the numbers, show some proof. Dear god, these forums have gone to being worse than the Eve General Discussion when it comes to intelligent people. The proof is that up until today it ONLY showed Dust side numbers. Today it's combining EVE and DUST numbers. Thus, padding the numbers to hide the fact that few are playing this crappy build. Sure, they're padding numbers in an obvious and transparent way, and then made Chribba lie to us when he said theres a bug somewhere in the API. Also it took them three days to decide to spin their numbers, because they're like THAT DUMB! Your proof is a non sequitur.
Now this is a decent reply. So is it possible the numbers before were a lie? Then who were the orignal 5k, just EVE side players? and now dust is showing itself with adding 30,000 to it?
yea - looking at how often I'm always seeing the same people - not buying it. |

None of those number are lies your usage of this word already implies some evil conspiracy. The technical term for number that don't seem to match with reality is "wrong" or "inaccurate" if your fancy. Now lets do some math: TQ: 34,726 players DUST: 38,607 players Lets try to subtract one from the other: 38,607-34,726= 3881Oh look, this number seems oddly in line with the previous days in the same timeframe. Could it be that somewhere in the processing of those numbers they get erroneously added on top of each other so it should read. TQ: 34,726 players DUST: 3881 players So it could be a minor error within the api or a really stupid plot to take our jobs/guns/rights/dust/whatever you decide.
And there ya have it folks. Someone who knows what's up took the time to answer the question that's been bothering everyone.

And btw - misleading numbers can easily be called a lie. No need to nitpick. |
