By CCP Abathur The other major factor is the more space you spread your ‘Dominion' across, the more expensive it will become to maintain your stargate network.  We do not want to see alliances holding space simply for the sake of holding it or just making their color on the map bigger.  We want to see allianc...

By CCP Capslock The great spotlight of CCP development has now been turned to EVE’s web presence, which whilst great, has tended to grow a little ‘organically’ over the years. Now is the time to bring the websites up to the same levels of AWESOME as EVE itself. CCP CAPSLOCK

Due to the nature of the Stackless Python programming methodology chosen for EVE Online, the python component of each node is a single thread, which means it can only ever utilize 1 CPU core at a ti...

And finally, several of our forums make their way to the forum graveyard. All readers please take a moment of silence for EveTV and the PvP Championships, Corporations and Alliances Summit, Windows, and EVE Technology Lab. Again, this means less scrolling through the forum area.
