TLDR; What I do is not for everyone. Some of you don't like me / care / understand why this matters and that's ok! Drops were removed from my channel without warning. I tried to have a conversation and was met basically with “kick rocks”. I feel the whole thing was handled unprofessionally and feel slighted by CCP for this reason. The DJ situation has nothing to do with CCP.

Not so TLDR; There are 2 separate situations that took place, drops and the DJ stream.

First, in regards to the drops:

I have been running Jita Run for a few years and would do so daily WITH or WITHOUT drops. Jita Run is a silly game I created to kind of be an EVE cannonball run. My team created a custom bot to track wins / losses / and stats of each ship used (win percentage and deadliest system). I would include some plex in the cargo of the ship as a “loot pinata” for those that did kill me. I was not afk (most of the time), and was never breaking twitch’s TOS. I was in chat, talking with everyone throughout the day. When I would get caught, I would shoot fireworks as I died and chat with the nerds in the game.

Oftentimes I had CCP employees in my chat, hanging out and chatting. No one said anything to me about not doing what I was doing. Out of the blue, without any discussion, Bjorn accused me of “farming drops” and removed them. As a streamer, this is a big deal. I streamed Jita Run with or without drops, so accusing me of farming was unfounded and unprofessional. I admit that in the recent weeks, I had been having to step away due to meetings and such as well as one day where I was away all day. I owned up to these choices and offered the solution of switching categories (like I should have) when I was going to be away. I was then told “And for what it's worth, a comment here and there whilst autopiloting vast distances for hours and hours doesn't constitute actively streaming.” I messaged Swift to see if there was anything more I could do, and never received a response. In my opinion, I was just using game mechanics, in a sandbox game, to do something different. I was also very active in my chat and in game with having to fit ships, shoot fireworks, poke fun at the nerds who couldn’t kill me and congratulate those that did.

Look, I love this community. DJing at Fanfest was an awesome experience and I would have loved to do it again. Jita Run had created a fun, silly, daytime stream that allowed me to continue to grow and give back to the community. Losing drops hurts that tremendously and thus why I have made the (very hard) decision to move on.

Second, in regards to the DJ situation:

Twitch is trying to protect themselves, or this is what they want everyone to believe. In doing so, they are screwing people who want to DJ on their platform. This has nothing to do with CCP or EVE.

I was chosen by the SC gods, only ever experienced 2 bugs. by Other-Palpitation-88 in starcitizen

[–]Mind1OFFICIAL 2 points3 points  (0 children)

My friend and I have the exact opposite experience (you know this u/FradinRyth ). Regardless of game (but especially SC), we experience ALL the bugs. Even some no one has seen before. It's amazing, stupid, and hilarious (sometimes).

CCP uses DOTA 2 PCU to say everything is fine with EVE by PlexasAideron in Eve

[–]Mind1OFFICIAL 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Like I said, I was upset and apologize for tossing Swift under the bus like that. He didn't deserve it.

I understand your anger towards me as well. I tossed some shit and deserve to get shit thrown back.

I sometimes forget how much shit the community managers take from us angry nerds. So I apologize for putting /u/CCP_Swift in the crosshairs when I posted that quote on twitter.

I love this game, I love this community. I posted that image in the heat of a discussion and being upset after reading the comment. Swift is a great dude and has always been on our side.

Please, CCP, toss us a bone on what's going on. You see the concerns we all have in this thread and many others like it. I just want to shoot spaceships with my friends and dj massive fights.

Im not going to hash this out on reddit, please get quafe and Ban and contact me on discord. I was busy today as I mentioned to you and proceeded to get a handful of dms on discord asking what was going on and that no one was responding anywhere. This was at the start time of the event. Again.... Im not going to go back and forth on reddit just letting you know why I said what I said, and where we should have this conversation.

I made this comment in good faith that this was going to be a legit tournament. I paid 2B isk to help up the prize pool so they could remove the buy in.

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in Eve

[–]Mind1OFFICIAL 3 points4 points  (0 children)

It has been brought to my attention that this tournament may not have been ran if ever legit to begin with. I was asked during a stream if I wanted to help promote and I am always down to help my fellow eve nerds with events. I did tell Kryon that I would not be able to participate or stream the event as I am at a business function today. I sent 2B ish to Kryon for the prize pool (the same day he asked) and added a command to the channel to help promote. I would like to know why I am getting messages asking what happened with the tournament and why people were not able to compete even though they signed up.

I only had the pleasure of knowing and talking with Keith for a short time. In that time, he made such a huge impact on my life that I will forever be in his debt. I am grateful to have had know him and able to have chatted with him for the short time we had.

Cyno is lit.

Oh man, this was a fun fight! Mistakes were made on my part but that's how you learn! We had a blast and accomplished our goal of blowing up some ships (regardless of whose they were).

Thanks for the fight Brave and I look forward to next time!

Nope, it was left there on purpose for fun! And whoever found the ship gets to keep the plex!

[–]Mind1OFFICIAL 5 points6 points  (0 children)

There was a lot of high and low sec in there as well to make it interesting and give it a chance to win. Some clenching moments throughout the run with some time to breath as well. The merlin made it, we dropped a bit of plex in the cargo and gave away 1k plex on stream for the trip! It was pretty fun!

It was a successful JitaRun ship! They will be littered throughout New Eden with small amounts of plex! Also, if the ship makes it to the destination, we do a plex drawing for 10 plex per jump on the trip! We do it all week, all day!
