EVE General Discussion

But yet you would rather continue to pay said salesman, even though he hasn't "fixed" anything.

Sound like a pushover to me.

Can't deal with confrontation.

you had me at "Theme Hospital".

/c

I was new to forums in general and i, sadly, have to confirm this.

I hope i'm not too on topic with this, but i partly understand you. (omg a seriouspost)

New Eden as a whole is a sandbox and you're one grain of sand in it.

It took me two years to figure it out, but the only reason why people get bored in this game,
or not perceive it as sandbox, is simply because they are used to being consumers.

The "butterfly effect" is alive and real in this game, but one will never experience it,
unless he actively embraces it. To switch from consumer to creator, one has to interact with
people in a way that has impact onto their eve-life.

What saddens me ... and pisses me off at the same time ... is the fact that most people
don't even chose to be consumers ... they are so used to being one, they have no real choices.

You, too, can become a shovel ... just stop being sand. All the grains of sand in the sandbox continually
get moved and pushed around, while at the same time being totally ignorant about it and holding tight
to the stupid belief of individuality and "chosing my own path".

If you want an example ... for the miner, the ganker is a shovel. The miner refuses to accept that,
refuses to acknowledge the influence AND refuses to accept the world of possibilities the ganker
actually opens up for him ...



Stop being part of the sand ... start being a shovel.

That's weird I paid for the same product and found it to be everything that it says it should be, what is wrong here?

We are 1 on 1 on this....we are really.

Thats why I tried Hillbillageddon.....

It is why I am now in the process of setting up interesting (to me at least) choreography for a storytelling lasershow.....live...

It is why I try to spread propaganda about larger alliances...

It is why i spread propaganda about smaller entities who can tilt the advantage to one side or another between two large alliances.

(There is a reason for it and is totally sandbox)

And I do mean....tried it!....and I do mean....am working on.....seriously....

Yet any communication about this play is either locked or only get people to react who say it does not belong in EvE and got to sod off.


Now, I wont sod off.....

I have done, will do, and keep doing it.....

But its hardly accepted gameplay if even mods, and devs start locking your threads while there are much worse ones out there. Specially under the....be civil or.....for the good of the gaming society banner.......it just sounds....biased and makes the sandbox a lie.

I am not even being rude in any way....make it pretty clear its a Carrot....for its orange....with a green TOP....


that sort a thing.

Difference in perception of sandbox.....not kidding!

That's because change can't come with words.
It only comes through action.

You can talk all you want ... it doesn't help. Especially not in form of text.
To gather masses, you need to transport emotion.

One can not easily transport/trigger specific emotions through text,
unless he's well trained and the circumstances fit.


I can tell from experience.


My own progress is slow too ... but people see me, people like me, (some hate me, but they don't really know me ^^)
and i went "OMG AWESOME" when people suddenly started COPYING my actions ...


To put this into a short sentence that actually concludes all ... no: most ... that has to be known about this:

Monkey see, monkey do.



Okay ?


(if you want, i'll log on in around 10min ... we can have a talk. :)

So this trainwreck of a thread is about a thread that got locked?

On a private, moderated forum?

Really?

What a waste of time and space.

You Sir have a valid point.....GET OUT!!!
