EVE does have two "I dont want to pvp buttons" fyi. One is called cloak and is installed on your ship, the other is called "dock" and is found in your overview in station systems.


oh so i am just supposed to run and hide without the ability to do anything at all but sit their and twiddle my thumbs for hours just because some slackers who don't want to earn their isk honestly decide to crowd a system and one shot anyone they can, you people really should be locked up

competitive? I am not sure I wanna call it that, mostly because I havent seen any actuall money making tournaments.
invulnerability... if you, like me, dont like pvp you avoid it like the plague so the invulnerability should not make that much of a difference.

I'd actually like to see us be allowed to pay some addtional amount to get immunity and then if ever discovered to participate in pvp in any way, shape or form the immunity is null and void permanently


We all compete for ISK, resources and space. Competition is everywhere - in the belts, on the market in the battle field. Competition is the driving force of EvE. How can you have missed that?

In a competitive environment ,no-one wants to pick a fight they cannot win. That goes for most PvPers in EvE. Many will go a long way to avoid fighting in many situations by, for example, making safe spots, scouting and fitting cloaks. Others will fit a tank on their mining barge so they are not an easy target.

If total invulnerability was available, everyone would have to use it to gain an advantage and that would effectively kill EvE.



its a game, those things you mentioned are a part of the game and yes ofc I have noticed it... when I think competitive I dont think ingame rewards, I think real life rewards.. any ingame "rewards" are just a part of the game.
If you look back to my first line there and actually read it...

…it doesn't mention anything about real life.

That aside, having real life rewards is not a prerequisite to make the game competitive.

The OPs tears are so good that I, a dedicated carebear, am seriously tempted to go and harvest some other bears for my own self gratification.

Goons & the like may act like asshats, they're allowed to act like asshats, that's what makes this game so interesting, if you don't like asshattery, GTFO.

In the beginning there was nothing, which exploded.

Years ago I learned that every time I popped a Miner/Indy a kitten died in the real world somewhere.

Didn't stop me.

The main problem here is that your comparing EVE to Western Earth Modern Culture.


What part of EVE is Western Civilization? We have the most powerful faction in EVE being religious god-fearing men who still condone with slavery. A tribal group of former slaves. A nation that focuses entirely on profit and everyone being useful and whatever the Gallente are.

However, you are too ethnocentric to even begin to think that a world where Earth's Western Society does not exist would have the exact same rules as Earth's Western Society.


actually all i'm stating is that pvpers act like paranoid dillusional psychotics working in a gun store, though i guess i really don't see even as much harm in that, but anyway i'm also saying that as a paying customer, which i am due to the outrageous shortage of isk for plex due to my exhumers being one shotted by bullies who have no one better to shoot, and as a paying customer i should have the choice whether or not to let a some coward with a gun to come in and shoot me point blank in my skull like some unsuspecting toddler



As a paying customer you have the option to stop playing if you do not like the rules that the game has put forth. No one is forcing you to play this game. They have rules and consequences for these nasty hi sec gankers and its called Conkorded, also no one is forcing you to mine where they are playing.

This game is a sandbox and if some kid keeps kicking down your castle where you build it maybe its time to move somewhere else and build there.

Why do PvP'ers act like terrorists to others who dislike PvP?

it's unfair, childish, rude, and in reality crimially insane, is this a game or a terrorist training camp?

atleast let us set a PvP status, other games do it, and don't say that makes it less fun, what fun can come from picking on someone who doesn't wish to fight you, bullies the lot of you Pffft....
