A new post on the CCP blog from Zulu uses the title “Fearless, Virtual Goods, and Rage”. The post deals with players’ reactions to a leaked internal newsletter called’ Fearless’ that discussed developers’ opinions on the subject of virtual goods and pricing. The letter goes on to discuss the pricing structure in the NeX store.

The opinions and views expressed in Fearless are just that; opinions and views. They are not CCP policy nor are they a reliable source of CCP views as a company. The employees who submitted articles to that newsletter did exactly what they were asked to do, write about theories and opinions from an exaggerated stand.

While it‘s perfectly fine to disagree and attack CCP over policies or actions we take, we think it‘s not cool how individuals that work here have been called out and dragged through the mud due to something they wrote in the internal company newsletter. Seriously, these people were doing their jobs and do not deserve the hate and shitstorm being pointed at them.
