Yeah, we are still around. Send me an eve-mail if you are interested and I will likely accept you. My eve name is Martimus28.
Here is our killboard: http://nawti.evekb.co.uk/?a=home
Our efficiency is really good this week, because Raiden. moved in to our space and they have lots of expensive ships that they don't know how to fly. That Bhaalgorn was titan bridged in with a bunch of nano ships on our bait Abbadon. One they engaged, the Abaddon pointed the Bhaalgorn, while the rest of our fleet showed up and killed him. the 7-8 nano fit BSes/T2s all warped off, but I got the target I was going for.

Then of course there was the fight in Gond that was also a case of them baiting us, so they could light a cyno, then us lighting a counter and killing all of them: http://nawti.evekb.co.uk/?a=kill_related&kll_id=1850947
But the real measure of how fail they are is the fight in Naka. Just look at the killboard, and you will see that we had no business winning this fight. What you won't see is that they also had an Archon on the field, and a few other recons/hacs that managed to get away. We had around equal numbers, but we were all cheap BCs, and they were not. I still can't understand how they just got slaughtered like that.

Multiple issues, but the real concern that needs to be addressed is that CCP has lied to the playerbase about microtransactions. Per a leaked internal newsletter, CCP is considering or intending to sell functional (and not just vanity) game items for Aurum.

It appears that there's a shitstorm going on in the eveonline forums.

I don't get why the massive hubbub about the cost of vanity items. It's obvious CCP doesn't want the introduction of this stuff to absolutely destroy the in game economy, specifically plexes. If the cost is below a certain point, the cost per plex would shoot up as people would have reached their willingness to pay cost and would buy/sell plexes to get these items, which would destroy the plex market.

Isnt the microtransactions for functional items still just rumors?
I saw some videos for the capt quarters, it looks sweet. I think EVE has so much potential but the overall mechanics of the game blow imo. A space ship game where you dont really get to fly space ships. Or aim your own guns.
Think that would be a first for a pay to play mmo.

Well CCP had a chance to at least slow down or even clam down the wildfire with their blog post they were promising. Instead it has made everything worse and now it seems people are trying to redouble their efforts and now the US timezone players are starting to log on and more logging on over the evening. Things are just downright bad in the worst way for CCP currently.
There are no non vanity items in wow and eq is a f2p game (and even if not xp boost really wouldn't qualify as those are useless at max level where people care about these things)No, unfortunately not. The real-cash purchasable mounts for World of Warcraft are functional items, and EverQuest II and other games have things like XP poitions you can buy.
I think it would be a big mistake for CCP to sell any sort of item that's manufacured, mined or looted by players. That would put CCP in competition with the players, even if they're distinct items from what players can provide. It would be unfair, and likely end up being very unfair. resulting in serious damage to the free economy that makes the game so unique.
Hmm... on the other hand, selling tech 2 BPOs for aurum... That would be soo evil...

I just canceled 2 accounts guys. It was a good run. I'll keep playing till the time runs out but thats it. I'm not throwing good money after bad and there are shit tons of good games coming out. Its very clear from that blog that microtransactions for bonuses during play are coming and i dont intend to be there for it.
Are they faster than other in-game mounts though? I thought it was just cosmetic.
