I like the idea of no local in at least non high security space. However, since masternerdguy is posting about it, we should probably keep local.

I plan on living forever.......so far, so good.

As a professional internet spaceship forum poster I can tell you that you bad posting is detrimental to the ongoing success of EVE. I will demonstrate my reasons for this with some professional looking bullet points.


  • You're awful.
  • You post awful threads.
  • I enjoy the music of The O'Jays.
  • Superfluous bullet point.


This, quite frankly, is unacceptable.

Remove masternerdguy.

Heh.

250m is pocket change I'm rolling in Tech baby.

Seriously, we've recently constructed a Scrooge McDuck style vault filled with Tech in VFK. Most Goons now spend the majority of their time doing a lazy backstroke around the vault while wearing top-hats and blue and white striped full body swimming costumes.

Heh.

master nerd guy just likes to post things that he know will get lots of replied.

That said, he's right, eve needs to get rid of local. even if it's only in -0.5 to -1.0 space. Wormhole PvP have proofs that local isn't needed and infact more interest because of it.

2nd of all, blacks ops battleships would finally have a role.

I completely agree. While we're at it, cloning is a crutch. If you die in space, you're instantly resurrected in a station, ready to fight again?

Remove clones. Make EVE hardcore.

We're so obscenely rich we don't even have to abide by the fundamental laws of physics. It's like how when you get rich enough to own a Ferrari you can basically ignore parking restrictions because heh.

That's an interesting idea... if a system or constellation hits -1.0, local dies until the sec rating improves? What would that do to the nullsec game?

Meh, hardcore people load up Unix, fire up the green-on-black text commands and the 300 baud modem. All these 'graphics'? Window-bears, I say!

You do realize that if local went away, which I am not necessarily against, 100% of the forum posts afterwards would be from hulk miners and carebears screaming bloody murder to bring back local. Personally I say let them have it as I am not sure I can handle any more crying on the forums.

I'm curious why Hulk miners in High Sec care about local?

You mean Null Bears?

Removing local would mean less real fights, and more ganks of carebears. That sounds awful
