f*ck you! hahahaha <3

Seriously though, I haven't laughed so hard in a long time - it's been more than a decade since I had hair.

Coincidentally, my Brooklyn Whopper arrived the same day, so it would be rude not to have a photograph with it given how much of a battering some people have been taking in New Eden recently :D

Love you guys! You're awesome <3 <3 <3

assholes!

Ok, got to say this is the first time I've checked your twitter... and while this post is funny, the pic with the shocked baby made me LOL at work. Thanks for that now my team is looking at me like I'm crazy(er).

To be fair, my twitter is just a mess of cat pictures, stupid fun, EVE stuff, RocketLeague goals and pictures of Iceland and food... nothing special hahaha <3

Good timing Mr Falcon to divert attention from the failed SP event. But you know, that's pretty basic trick from the PR book. Maybe add some "botters teleported to high-sec" for better impact.

Event seems to be working for me - claimed my skillpoints across all six accounts today just fine.

I am not awesome. I know this because I used to make video games for a living--specifically MMOs--and it was during that time I realized the industry had transformed me into an uncaring douche nozel contemptuous of the actual players of my game.

Back then, around 2007, I was convinced CCP was different. Now... I am not so sure.

Anyway, I do appreciate that you guys at least try to engage with the community!

See, I don't think I could ever transform that way personally.

I spent a decade as a highly visible EVE player and the community will always stay at the front of my mind. I always want to keep roots there, because that's where I came from.

I think one of my biggest problems at CCP is that I tend to be too direct in defense of the community's point of view sometimes, and also sometimes I'm just too direct in general if I think something's a sh*t idea.

Do I i think there are some asshats among our players? Absolutely. There's asshats in every community - I'm one myself at times. I think we all have those moments, it's human nature. I stand by my statement that we have the most amazing community in online gaming. When I stop believing that is when I'll move on to do something else. I can't see that happening at this stage in my life.

I tend to have those moments of asshattery at the same time as our players do - when I feel like someone's going to do something bad for EVE. That's when the growling starts and when I get a bit too direct for my own good sometimes. Regardless though, I'll always put the health of EVE and the community first - that's kinda what you have to do in this role.

That said, if you were on the dev side I can totally appreciate feeling like you're at odds with your players - there's always a tradeoff between creating a healthy, sustainable game, and giving into the chaos that your customers want the game to be.

It's all about finding that balance man, I don't think I could ever get to the point where I held contempt for our players. In the end, I respect the fact that our pilots pay my salary, and I quite like having money at the end of the month.

Well, apart from /u/Jibrish - screw that guy <3

i don't expect them to be best buddies but...

Apologies for not knowing a single individual person by name when I'm regularly monitoring around two dozen discussion platforms relating to EVE on pretty much an hourly basis, on top of all the gaming channels and platforms I'm also watching out of personal interest.

Clearly I'm bad at life, lol.

I live here full time, I'm originally from the UK (Durham) so I have no blood relatives here, just my boyfriend.

Also, ég er að læra íslensku ;)

For sure it wouldn't have been going on my head otherwise :P

Pretty much.

In all honesty, I don't feel like I have a job.

I just do something awesome that I enjoy and happen to get paid for.

Suprisingly, I could understand that as a Norwegian.

Doesn't surprise me, from what I've heard those two languages are the closest to old Norse that exist, so they tend to be pretty similar :D
