EVE General Discussion

Eve leaves room for both co-operation amd competition.
Naturally it attracts the odd lost soul who feeds on the dismay of others.
Goons all come from a website that is a haven for tearful neckbearded manchildren so naturally they need to realise themselves through messing with others.
I don't log on solely to bother people but must admit that some whines from players that don't even try will bring out the worst in me.

EvE is a sandbox, the only thing forcing them to play that way is lack of imagination / ability to adapt.

Tears are best enjoyed when shared with friends (or frienemies...)

I don't think many other people feel this way. I have witnessed Tubrug harvest tears and celebrate the tears others have generated. I have yet to see him cry or go into a fit of rage.



Spoken as a true pubbie. Eve is what you make of it. There are plenty of corps and other groups that welcome the casual gamer. But if it's just "casual," why the tears? I don't cry when I lose at solitaire. Why cry when an internet spaceship blows up on a computer screen?



Not true... at all. Just check out the recruiting channel in game- plenty of corps to choose from outside of high sec. No, not all the industrial stuff is in highsec. It is much easier to anchor a pos in lowsec and null, for instance, and you cannot build capitals in highsec. Mining and ratting in nullsec provides better isk than highsec (and no permit needed.)



Many of these people actually do appear to suffer from internet spaceship anger control issues. As evidenced on www.minerbumping.com, this rage causes the "frustrated" to barely be able to type the English language in a readable format.



I think you are writing this because you got ganked recently and want to explain your tears away. Next time it happens, perhaps Dear Leader is sending his regards.

Perhaps his power comes from the collective tears of the universe.

Filled with a mixed of crazy, stupid and idiotic comments - I wish to focus on this one.

Did you read the part that specifies time? You know Erotica, the stuff that you spend scamming people - TIME.
EVERYTHING you have mentioned in the above paragraph require a massive amount of the stuff and you can NEVER be assured of a return. But there is one thing you are assured of - you will be ganked on the way to sell the stuff.

It may be easy to anchor a POS in low-sec/null but you spend most of you time defending it!. You cannot mine/rat in low sec because everyone is either out to get you or trying to get back to hi-sec to SELL the stuff is a necessity and the possibility of getting back is lower than doing it in hi-sec.

Building capitals - this is the most idiotic - this takes the most time in the game. This is when the game becomes a job due to the amount of stuff you need to build and the amount of mins you have to acquire to build the components then to ship them to a low-sec station for the building.

A casual player has no chance to do this - even a group of casual players would have difficulty.

There seems to be only one way that I can see a casual player (remember, limited time) having a reasonable Eve experience. They become the gankers. You cannot play this game as an industrial casually.

So in summary Erotica, you seem to have got you brain addled through all the honest scamming you do (I notice you only do that in hi-sec - why is that?) so pls think about your statements before posting.

Because you threw so much in together, I just broke it down piece by piece. I never said the casual player should invest in making capitals- I just completely disagree with your comment that all the isk is made in highsec. I'll address your new novella here as well, just without all the damn quotations.

ANSWER: Use couriers like everyone else. Each account has 3 character slots. Even the most casual player can have 1 toon for jita trades. Plus, everyone knows I don't scam.

ANSWER: Don't join a **** corp. Your friends will defend that stuff for you because they want "good fights" while you print isk. You can also mine or rat in low sec because if you don't join a **** corp, you will have more friends there than people "out to get you." Couriers apply here as well. Set your collateral and rewards appropriately and you have nothing to worry about- or use a trustworthy corp or alliance service.

ANSWER: Simply a comment regarding your absolutely silly comment that all industry is in highsec. Don't read too much into it.

ANSWER: Research what makes sense to make and what makes sense to buy. There are spreadsheets and websites on the internet to make this quicker for you. You choosing industry as a casual player is not my problem- it is your choice.

So in summary Erotica, you seem to have got you brain addled through all the honest scamming you do (I notice you only do that in hi-sec - why is that?) so pls think about your statements before posting.

ANSWER: Why are you so angry and rattled? I am currently sitting in lowsec by the way since I do undock and fly around all the time. In fact, I just opened a corp office here if you'd like to visit. I'm sitting in Tasti. If I wanted to make random comments I wouldn't have broken apart your nonsense into understandable chunks and addressed each one. Just because I disagree with you doesn't mean you have to be so mean and nasty. Why is it that carebears are the rudest people in this game? LOL

edit* what's so wrong about ganking illegal miners and taking their contraband from their wrecks? Why are you so mad?

But if everyone becomes a ganker, who is left to gank, aha

Be a renter.

Erotica - you are still not thinking!!

Couriers take isk and plenty of it for hireage AND COLLATERAL. Where is a casual player going to get that amount of isk?

Time is the enemy here time to make the friends, time to do the stuff that needs doing to lay the foundation to get the isk - time.

And me - I'm a sweetie :)
