Yeah, I did a purge last weekend. It was about 50 real accounts, 150 or so characters. Lot of people seemed to drop off early June. More surprising to me is how few people I had to purge, lot of people getting on Jabber every so often, even if they aren’t actively playing.

And yeah, as a few people pointed out, it’s pretty prominent in the MOTD now.

Is the idiot really dying on the hill of "opening jabber once a month and staying logged in" is too much like space work again?

Terrible argument because logging into the official eve client is already almost too much space work, and if you are actually playing you are doing this, thus demonstrating you don’t mind the space work so much.

It's a good idea, if only to avoid the buildup of like 2000 inactive characters that you had to purge during the API/ESI change.

I made fish tacos a bunch of times this summer, I could have stayed "active" just by posting food pics to the taco club thread. (Are tacos still a thing, or that an old meme now?) As is I'll stick with the vacation until I feel like playing.

There was a link to an android app which i tried but i never really figured it out.

It would work, i was clearly connected and coukd see elysium chat but if i tried to type, it would open a chat which whoever was on top of the elysium list.

I eventually gave up after many tries but i'd probably give it another go if I ever I rejoin.

Dude you missed his meltdown in real time it was glorious, if he had just shut his loving trap instead of making GBS threads on the auth team he would have been able to sail right the gently caress back in.

AFAIK he never contacted the auth team about it.

The lesson being, for auth problems please contact the auth team via newbies@goonfleet.com. Contacting other directors about your auth problems will lead to variable results.

With blackout only ending ten or so days ago, I'm really hoping the player count goes up(I think it is)

I have no idea what their server costs are, but supposedly there is a smaller crew now working at CCP vs. a couple of years ago.

The Linke is a party I grudgingly accept exists, but I've learned enough about DDR-history I can't bring myself to trust a party that was once the SED, a party leading the corrupt state apparatus ...
