NickyYo posting in a Tom Gerard thread .... Did someone just google google?????? THE WORLD WILL END

What we're actually doing is removing both hisec and PvP from the game entirely. It seems like the fairest way to solve this problem. - CCP Grayscale  - CCP troll BEST troll <3

This sh*t is serious business, we are afraid of change, eve is going to die again, and then CCP will go out of business because of this change.

Will High sec ever be the same again?
Will CCP's changes to barges eleminate PVP forever?
Does PVP have a future at all?
Is Eve doomed to die a silent death?
Will the FBI guys on the tv show I'm watching right now catch the bad guy? (I think so; they are packing some serious firepower)

Find out next time during the explosive and shocking season premier of Eve:Online! Check local listings for showtimes.

Edit: FBI got the guy, btw

your a complete dumbass if you think that. Ganking a defenseless ship is NOT PVP. what idiots. You would not know what PVP is if it came up and poded you like some red headed step child begging to be smacked around with a a large trout.

You trolls do not wish to spend the iskies for declaring war on some poor indy corp. come on i thought thats why the WarDec mechanic got reworked cause the GOONs get pawned!

Aye yes he can....the ability to gank is there and is not going away. What is going away is the ability to profit from it. No matter how many threads they start this doesnt look to be changing. These people just cant seem to accept it. Like little kids that keep asking thier parents in a desperate hope they will get the answer they want to hear.

Funny... especially when you concider that miner ganking isn't even PvP... not really. I mean, PvP means player versus player... but suicide popping a hulk is pretty onesided...
