EVE General Discussion

So every day you see threads all over the forums on whinging incompetent pilots who basically whinge non stop about basic mechanics!

So let's address this shall we?

1. If you undock, you are fair game, you are never safe, it's that simple.

Which part of this do you not understand? Eve is a harsh universe, welcome to Eve, where we don't give you a cookie, we take your cookie, smash it on the floor and then laugh at you for bringing a damn cookie in the first place!

2. My barge or venture keeps getting ganked.

Right, if you choose to mine in mission systems, close to trade hubs i.e within 5 jumps this is going to happen, it's that simple, My alt mines AFK every day and it has NEVER been ganked, do you know why? Because it is 22 jumps from the nearest market hub and 18 jumps from the nearest level 4 mission area. might want to think about that maybe?

3. Solo PvP is dead, we need more players.

This is complete and utter bullshit, I get 1v1 fights non stop, I never have to look very far, the bottom line is, if you choose to run around In dramiels, comets, firetails etc then expect everyone in a ship that CANNOT stand up to that to run away, if you want to level the playing field then become part of that level instead of showing off your ISK abilitys.

4. Missions don't make any money, it's a grind.

How is this different from any other game? Not to mention the ISK in missions is NOT in the bounties, it is in the LP rewards, you need to work out what LP reward in your tree of rewards sells for the most and what is time efficient.

5. Had my freighter ganked like 10 times, wth CCP.

If you choose to AFK a billion ISK ship across high sec from Amarr to Jita or Dodixie to Jita, then you are going to get what's coming to you, it's that simple, there are so many ways around this, cloaky haulers, multiple runs etc, use your Brain, it's that simple.

This is just a few and I hope, that you think before you keep posting the same old drivel!

7 kills to your name, four of which are POCO's, perhaps doing rather than virtue signalling drivel would be an idea. Or as they say on C&P post with your main...

You are casting dispersions on fellow Eve players and yet your own experience is sadly lacking. Killboard stats and all that are meaningless apart from the fact that they define whether you have experience, go away and think about that and then perhaps you could make more sense.

All you have proven is that you are full of hot air and are seeking attention and these forums are full of such posting, now if you could actually do an interesting post of your experiences then I would happily read it.

EDIT: In your sig you have a link to a you tube channel, that is good stuff.

I'll put my janky killboard out there and say that OP's advice is pretty sound. Attitude is everything!

While that works for many people - I've 1-2 real life acquaintances who I've given that advice to and they have still got ganked - part of the problem being they are too new to the game to know how to make themselves not look like a target and while some might be able to overcome that others will be put off the game before they've really experienced what the game has to offer.

Someone with a few months in the game though that is another story.



One way it is different - in most other games that grind is part of the main story arc progression - not so much in Eve - well Eve is the story but it doesn't cut it when it comes to the realities of missioning.

of course, i meant not offence with my post at all, merely an opinion but as my mother used to say, opinions are like bum holes, we all have them!

But I run a frieghter a lot which transports my pvp ships sum times as much as 2 billion isk worth of ships etc. Insta undocks, warps etc

Of course you can reduce the risk by instra undocks etc., but if you get scanned and they really want to get your freighter your webber will not help and your only option is having 4 characters each in a Talos ready to suicide gank the bumper you don't have any other way of getting out. Do they have a point or not, perhaps they are fail for not doing that but so many so called good players fail that test and to be blunt I could not do it which is why I sold my freighter.

o7 for the reply.

CODE are funny, stupid but funny, tried to gank my tengu with three nados, failed horribly

Oh dear hot air and no detail of this huge list.

1. Do not AFK
2. Watch local
3. Use a scout
4. Set them -10
5. Use a webber
6. Never take more than 1bn
7. Dock up at the sight of any danger

Does that sound about right? Such impressive counters, I almost came writing them

7. if you are a troll who has nothing better to do that tawl the forums looking for posts to post what he thinks is "witty" when it is simple "nobby"
