Yet when folk do fit a tank, you then whinge that it costs too much to gank them.

I mean, the mining barges, PVE fit ships, etc that get blown up in low/null/wh space aren't anywhere as near as weak and defenseless as the mining barges and PVE ships in highsec, and they totally wanted me to drop a sb gang on them and kill their ship and pod, so it's ok if I gank them in low/null/wh space, but in highsec? Wow thats just griefing basically!


In case you didn't get it, sarcasm. I'm saying this "go to low/null/wh to pvp" line is stupid.


Poor quality trolling.

I just did a null/low sec roam recently. it's no wonder they come up to high sec, guys in low/null are damn hard to catch and if you get close to catching one he/she docks up. You hear about all this risk vs reward talk, wouldn't you forgo a life in null/low to wardeck juicy industrial corp for their pretty loots rather than having to painstakingly hunt down a pilot that even if you caught would at best just have a few t2 mods drop?

because people actually shoot back
can you imagine that when you try to gank someone in low sec and they actually shoot back where is CCP taking this game I demand that CCP nerf low sec so i can grief low sec and nullsec dwwellers aswell

I do not agree with what you are saying , but i will defend to the death your right to say it...... Voltaire

By shooting back do you mean lighting the cyno?

So to summarise, reasons to PVP (ganks, wardecs, whatever) in highsec:
There is not a single reason not to (highsec is and always has been a PVP area. All areas of EVE are PVP areas)
Abundance of targets
No capital warfare
Less blobby
Targets are more likely to be packed with bling
The tears are twice as delicious

Reasons why carebears think everyone who wants to PVP should go to low/null/wh space:
They feel that they shouldn't have to PVP if they don't want to
The feel that highsec is supposed to be a PVP free zone
They do not understand the nature or mechanics of the game

Simple :)

Close. We're bothered when CCP fits the tank for them, since they refuse to.

Wrong.

I am assuming you are mistaking my complaints about the macks base tank which is causing balance issues with the other exhumers.

So, you will opposed to CCP gifting null-sec better production facilities, as some null-sec folk think the present arrangement is just too much like hard work for them.

I look forward to CCP making the other exhumers tougher in line with the Mackinaw to keep the balance right.Smile

It is impossible to compete with high sec industry. It is entirely possible to tank a barge to be unprofitable to gank.

The honest answer is that it's because they are cowards. They'd get their arses handed to them in Low/Null, so they stay in High where they can have easy victories and feel like men. They will dress it up any number of ways, but that's the reality.
