    Collapse of the NC

    It definitely shook up the status quo in Eve.

    Agreeing that it's a no-brainer - the collapse of the NC.

    ALL of you are forgetting the most important, most significant event:

    The discovery of The Voice of Eve, the One and Only DavidKMagnus!
    The facts have a strong anti-A- bias.

    In the spirit of nominating something else, I'm going to say the leak of Hilmar's internal employee newsletter. I know this is usually a player event within EVE online, but if we are talking a singular event here, nothing sparked more rage or drama than that one leak. The failed incursion expansion got everyone heated up, the Hilmar leak made everyone explode.

    That leak was the final push needed to send the eve player base over the top and demand change, which in turn lead to CCP's drastic change in direction, giving us the crucible expansion and the constant dev blog's preaching about how CCP has "learned their lesson."

    Pretty big deal if you ask me.

    The Jita riots. Not necessarily the riots themselves but what they represented and how CCP reacted.

    The apparently sincere apology and vow-to-do-better by CCP is a rare event in corporate governance. When the residents of "civilized space" go into revolt it means something has gone terribly wrong and cash flow may suffer.

    CCP noted and adjusted. Null sec should be better for it. So will the rest of New Eden.

    The damaged monument in Jita

    This was once a memorial to the winners of a riddle contest sponsored by the late entrepreneur Ruevo Aram. After standing proud for half a decade, it was destroyed in late YC 113 by capsuleers who were staging a mass uprising against an intolerable status quo of intergalactic affairs. Today, the ruins of this once-great work of art stand as a testament to the fact that change is the universe’s only constant.
    The new inscription on the memorial's plaque.

    The Jita riots was before the Occupy wall street movement right?

    Holy shit, did we start that shit? We're sorry America, just another example of how RL doesn't transfer well to EVE and vice versa, vov.

    Actually, upon further thinking, I'm going to have to agree with Cold One there. The Jita Riots were a turning point in EVE history.

    Sorry, but collapse of the NC has this in the bag. Nominating it.
    [Arrador] possesses a considerable understanding of ship configurations, strengths and weakness. He gives clear and purposeful instructions, is good at taking advantage of the fleet-composition he's dealt, and never loses sight of the main goal: fun. This, paired with an excellent tolerance for strong drink gives him an almost Churchillian capability to win, despite being completely pissed on booze most of the fleet operation.

    Yeah I would have obviously said the NC but I think the Incarna Door + Protests + Hilmar letter were definitely bigger.

    I know I've already said this in like 4 other threads but you literally can't top the ragefest that was the $60 pants fiasco and FEARLESS. The fall of the NC may have shaken things up on the 0.0 scene, but the Jita Riots literally changed the game for everyone who plays EVE.

    Fearless/Jita Riots is my first bet if we're counting IRL events involving EVE, otherwise the Ice Interdiction, because if you can change the game by making people cry moar that's a pretty fucking big deal

    Collapse of the NC is way to big to be an 'event'. If you have to take out one single battle from that campaign I would pick the Uemon fight

    Without the incarna backlash the nc collapse might have been the last big deal. So backlash it is.

    Related to Sov and the game? The fall of NC. But the biggest thing that the largest amount of people noticed would still be CCP fucking stuff up with Incarna.

    Definitely the NC Collapse. When I was watching H-W flip sov in Tribute, I was still waiting for local to spike with 1500 reds.

    Then end of IT was big, but the end of the NC really is much bigger. Another IT like incarnation may come back, but the NC is an idea that will probably never be repeated.

    Those jumpbridge maps were so glorious, it's like the roman empire falling - a decayed overextended empire.

    The fall of the NC, yeah.

    What's CFC then? In terms of idea (and ideal) they aren't/weren't all that different; rather in how they practically operate(d).
    The facts have a strong anti-A- bias.
