Wormholes

I'd have thought that recent events have shown you that evictions can and do indeed create GFs. After all, eviction isn't death; anyone with a pair will just redeploy in another system. Content was created. GFs were had.

More content and more good fights are created when evictions are opposed and pvp corps are allowed to flourish.

you know this isnt true. sure, the corp may return but every eviction leaves some pilots behind, not to mention the obvious down time of finding and moving into a new system.

WH evictions are only OK if you plan to actually live in the system you're evicting. And no, I don't care what class corp is attacking which, it makes no difference.

survival of the strongest

and evicting is good, it keeps people in line

Nothing wrong with evictions per say. This thread just boils down to 3 words and game mechanics. I quote OP "without just cause" So basically OP want to define and police "just" in low class j-space. Speaking on behalf of myself, thank you but no thank you.
Listen to what Jack and Seraph actually write, the real implications of staging an eviction will take care of the rest.

Cliff notes:

It's not cool to remove someone from j-space just for the lulz, we need all the activity we can get. But I don't see the point of adding more layers of politics to wormhole living.

Game mechanics doesn't allow or disallow evictions (well, actually it allows it) It dictates the frequency. Friends are always good to have. No one will argue against that. But leave it at that. Just my 0.02

So the more I think about this the more I like it, and provided it operates in a certain way I can see it being useful for generating lots of fun.


No organization, no funds, no rules or policies or complicated things. Well okay maybe a few rules or whatever, but those can be figured out later I suppose, standard NPSI stuff. I think the most liberating thing about Wormhole space is the lack of politics, or, the fact that politics are in fact "everyone is hostile except that guy right now but if we see him again there will be trouble be told!"

I cant tell you how many times my group has responded to someone saying "hey we've got a fight in (system) bring this" or "We've got a capital tackled bring anything!" or just "(autistic screaming in comms)"... etc. Actually I could, about a half dozen times tbf... But I digress. To quote Terry Pratchett, "If there were any (content) we would spring, yes I mean spring into action! (cough laboriously)"

All it takes is a friendly email saying "Hey we're under threat, could you provide assistance? We're using X type of fleet, we're in Y type of wormhole, and we're fighting Z type of fleet. Any help would be appreciated." And then intel is exchanged and good fights propogate. Corps set each other blue for the duration of the siege and back to neutral afterwards if it'll be a long one, or if it's short then no standings necessary, just fleet up, form up, and fight, salute/reship, repeat.

I for one support more content in all of its forms regardless of form, and I would click the button for "Would you like to know more?" If I saw one, so send me a mail if you've got any other details or questions or anything else. I may have all sorts of suggestions if you're interested in hearing them.

If you think corps that get evicted just disperse into the ether and never return you're being naive, and you've never struck me as naive, so I'm going to assume it's just because you're trying to prove your point. Evictions are natural selection at work. If you're not able to survive in W-Space and vacate the moment it gets difficult, you probably don't belong there anyway. The strong will survive, get better and get even.

I've done the large fleet fights in Null, it's not even remotely engaging. Large fights in W-Space rarely, if ever, get to that scale and you know it, so don't make a false equivalency between the two.

As far as the fun factor goes, who are you to decide? We all play this game in the way that entertains us, whether it be mining rocks or blowing up ships or whatever profession you choose to pursue. You don't get entertainment from eviction operations? Fine, don't do it. Because I'm sure Wingspan have never evicted anyone, right?

because getting content from that group during evicting is better than no content at all

+ who even cares, its a videogame, if your group quits because they lose a wh or two, then they probably have bigger issues

RIP, high class is interested now, ggwpurgaypwnedw/e. Now's the time to say "It's a fair cop gov!" and run into an impossibly small door.
