Umm, no, reason: two totally different games, Eve works fine as it is as far as I've been told by those that play it, I don't play it. Elite works fine as it is. Its new and will develop these things, you can't have everything straight away, doesn't work that way in any game.
Comparing elite and eve online..

It wasn't just the alliance mates and corp members though, but if you don't think charitable donations are a good thing that demonstrate the humanity of your fellow man and woman then okay.
I'd like to help you with your multiple system sensor array without the use of alt accounts though. Get a friend or two and ask them to scout.
I haven't played Eve for more than two months now so there you go. I also believe Eve is a dumb game with atrocious game mechanics that reward or actively doesn't discourage AFK behaviour, so it's left to the players to provide entertainment for each other.
Alliance leaders and the better corp CEO's provide content for their members and the members log in and create fun stuff. Sometimes the fun stuff happens to you, and other occasions other peoples fun times happen against you. But you do have to be there to enjoy it, and you have to enjoy it to want to be there.
I wasn't going to bring up Vile Rat as the loss is more unbearable than you can imagine. There's nothing more to discuss with you.
As far as social support there are plenty of great take-aways from EVE. (aka Excel Online/Spreadsheet Online) There are also plenty of pitfalls from EVE to avoid as well. I'm not saying Frontier can't take any pointers from EVE but if people want to play EVE...they should play EVE.
You need a subscription for EVE
I have no idea why people compare those titles - completely different beasts in my opinion. I`m playing both and I can hardly see any comparison apart from vast space and spaceships.
They are currently which is the way we want to keep it.
My beef with Eve is to have any real fun means playing for hours a day, good at eve means fail at RL if you have kids and a family.
I don't wanna see player bases, mines, stations and whatnot. This stuff will just be another grind which is going to end up being kinda mandatory in some way if you want to reach feature X, ship Y...
I don't wanna see pvp being enforced on people. The pvp group says "play Solo" but what if I don't wanna pvp but still wanna keep my option to interact in Open in a friendly way. Which I already managed several times at stations w/o interdicting someone for the lulz. Why not get a sticky thread and meet up in a certain Anarchy system at a Nav Point and pvp away? That would be boring you say? Cuz everyone would actually agree on being blown up? Missing the griefing?
The way Elite manages to give everyone room to breath right now is great and I hope they keep it that way.
More social tools like a friends chat that works Galaxy wide? Yes please. Having people spam the chat inside the system like some kind of broadcast? Hell no.
Two separate games with two separate intentions in design. Pretty please, keep it that way. And adding few chat functionalities is hardly adding something from EVE but more common sense. Just leave the silly boradcasting chat stuff out - those chats always suck.
Someone else wrote a really nice post before. That Elite has already big empires and that we're all just tiny dots in the sky. That is Elite. Keep it Elite.
