Biomassing and Cancelling EVE - a how to (also, take my quiz!)

Earlier this week, a corp mate of mine, named Un'cas, sadly decided to leave the game.

Permanently.

The reasons he cited were not uncommon to many others I've seen lately:

"My decision has nothing to do with BiPo in general or any person/player in particular. It has everything to do with my growing disatisfaction with CCP and how they treat the players. The fact they have no regard for we, the paying customers and that there is realy nothing new for me to do in eve, made this decision inevitable months and months ago."

(Un'cas - Bi-po forums)

This is far from an uncommon occurrence in EVE Online, especially lately with all the public outrage shown towards CCP. Un'cas however, went that one step further while quitting the game. He not only cancelled his subscription, he also biomassed his 2005 Character!

For those who have not seen what happens when someone does that, this is the corp mail we receive as a notice:

The deceased then becomes a member of "Doomheim" Corp (Ticker [666]), and their name can no longer be found or linked in the character search ingame.

In Un'cas' memory, I've decided to create a quiz that will enable you to find out whether you or a loved one are showing signs of an oncoming emo rage quit. Hopefully by learning more about your true current feelings about EVE Online, you will be able to reflect and make an informed and level-headed decision about your future in the game.

(If you do decide to go on and quit, there are instructions further below on how to do so.)

This is how you go about Biomassing your character:




You then have to wait a full 10 hours in the biomass processing queue (in the meanwhile hopefully you'll change your mind), before going ahead and turning your beloved character into space ashes. As a bonus, you also get to hear lovely screaming and burning sound effects when you actually press the final terminate button!


Cancelling your subscriptions to EVE:

Log into your EVE account management page and click on the circled item as shown below.



That's it! Hopefully you've made the right decision. All the best, and may you have a long and prosperous RL without internet spaceships!
