Although this entire thing amuses me to no end, until CCP punishes idlers who effect the game much more adversely than a few hundred million ISK, I think this was sort of an empty gesture at punishment
Furthermore, I don't think CCP even intended to punish players, they just effed up, twice now, and put it off on the players.
I think it would be much more advantageous in the future if they simply made mistakes like this a part of an event or dropped some normally AUR items or specialist/Rares for huge ISK into the store to sink the ISK in the system. |

If they spent the ISK they are not penalized because they already have the equipment they bought. Make them be in dept whatever they over spent. Sure why not. I don't really care. But don't force people out of a game with critically low player count. They're not forcing anyone out. Didn't they offer to liquidate your assets, if you want to get out of debt? What ever happened to that plan... Some people went several hundred million in debt, and did not have several million in assets to liquidate. And even if they did donate to the corp (not all affected did) there is no guarantee the money would be returned. 0 isk is starting over, going broke. Negative isk is pure punishment which is wrong when CCP is at fault. so the people who donated 400mil+ to the corp went negative then got reset then had their corp give them back the 400mil+ ISK is not a glitch and exploiting the system to get 3 or 4 times the amount of ISK without punishment is right and what everyone should of done is what your saving. so your in favor of bugging and glitching the game to help yourself out.
Look, CCP used the same method to remove ISK and dole out punishment that they used to put it there in the first place - and that method is faulty.
CCP is making mistakes. Turning on your fellow players out of some meta-avarice to take the side of a company that inflicts two massive mistakes onto it's customer base and then turns around to blame them for that mistake when it could have been handled differently is bizarre in the extreme.
I want real exploiters to be punished severely, but this was corner cutting of the highest order and they're just making more work for themselves in the long run. |

I support this game and want it to stay alive because I feel like the direction this game was taking was excellent and I'm hoping that the marketing team flustercluck that hijacked it gets handed its walking papers so the Dev staff can go back about their business.
But you're right, doing that with my wallet is not an option I am too terribly inspired to entertain at this moment. |
