Buy cheaper ships and lose 100x as many, instead of one very expensive ship. By losing 100 ships, you become 100x better at PvP.

Sorry to see you go OP, if you send me some stuff I'll tell you about this recurring dream I keep having. Pretty sure it predicts the future.

Are you sure? The latest dev responses say that cache scraping is totally illegal, but they super promise not to ban you for it, though you will absolutely get banned if you use it, unless you're doing something CCP likes, though obviously they can't tell you what that is. All clear? Good.


And the devs have clearly stated that programs like eve central are not what they are aiming at with the new stance on cache scraping, its aimed at botters and other methods of cheatng, not third party programs that use it to get information.

In T1 frigates I have lost like... 500, more or less. If I say I'm useless I say it with numbers. All of you are not getting the point. It's not the money. So, It's not Eve-Central (that was a minor upset). IT'S THE PVP.

Then what is stopping you from being good at PVP? Bad fits? Getting too nervous?

I don't think are not bad fits. At least I fit things that other chars say in BattleClinic that are good, and BTW have a lot of positives. Also isn't get nervous. It's the real matter of improving your possibilities by creating the ideal (or a similar one) combat scenario for that ship. I think It's the metagame.

Yeah, definitely. Maybe you should adjust the meta game to suit you. Instead of trying to figure out how to fly the ships effectively to achieve their potential, figure out how you prefer to fly and then build a ship to suit your play style. Maybe that will help.

How I prefer to fly? I don't know. It's simple. I can adapt the way I must do it. I don't have a favorite way. Big whale with almost no mobility (BS)? No problem. Minma frigate with a lot of mobility? No problem. Sniper setup in a Rokh or a Cerberus? No problem. Hybrid setups of those (Dominix at 200km with sentries)? No problem. The problem is that, whatever the way that I choose, I always lose. I think this is the main problem: I don't have a favorite way, so don't try to excel at that. And when I try to excel at something I don't get the enough experience for not failing again with the same error.

Yeah, so you're not getting enough experience with any particular combat style. This also leads to another problem which is knowing how to pick your fights. Maybe if you stick to a ship you like and figure out the strengths and weaknesses of the ship, you will understand which fights you can win and avoid the fights you can't win.

Then go away in silence.

If your not sharing your items before you leave anything you say and complain is as pointless as this little thread of yours.

Some people just can't pvp no matter how hard they try. Your one of them.

Unlike you, my intellectual skills are just fine. You are just another two-digit IQ attention whore, nothing of value is lost.

You can trust me or not, but I have 110 of IQ. So better go to other thread with that argument...

Look man, it's a game. If you're not having fun, do something else. Hell, take a 6 month break and then come back refreshed and ready. That's what it takes for some people. Point is, games are for fun. If you aren't having fun, there's no reason to play.

Obviously being paid up until December you'll continue playing until then, but you could just take a break now. Put some long skills in, only log on to update skills for a few months. Start playing again 1 month before your subscription runs out to see if you want to re-subscribe.

Everybody reaches that point where the game is just boring and stagnant. Try a new corp, go in WH space, there's a million things to do. But if you're really burnt out, step away. You'll get the yearning to play again, everyone does. It may take a month, it may take 3 years. Either way, you've made a change and have time to rethink why you enjoy playing, what you want to do, and challenge yourself to do things you haven't done before when you come back. May come back to find some new features, new stuff to tinker with. Maybe the December expansion will actually be a real expansion instead of a bug fix/ship balancing (hehehe)

So do what you gotta do. Just have fun doing it. Good luck
