You can always tell when a thread has descended into sensationalist bullcrap when CCP are trolling you.

But if you do that, what kind of non-unsafe space would I not have to never visit in order to avoid not being unexposed to non-unconsensual pvp?

I wrote some true EVE stories! And no, they're not of the generic "my 0.0 alliance had lots of 0.0 fleets and took a lot of 0.0 space" sort. Check them out here:

There was no problem. Hisec aggression-mechanics worked fine, it's not the rest of our fault that,

A) Most of these idiot carebears refuse to learn the most basic aspects of the game.
B) The parts of hisec shenanigans that are problems--neutral RR not getting aggro-flagged, dec-shielding, the Orca SMA-nerf--were ones that you still haven't fixed, and/or have actively shat on in the case of the SMA nerf (hisec Orcas only, carriers in losec can still play their idiotic station-games, and do.)

Why don't you just admit that you want to turn EVE into just another generic **** MMO, and have done with it?

It's so bloody obvious, and has been for a long time. Because what I've seen from you in that other thread about this is one of the most downright pants-on-head ******** things I've ever seen from you. And that's saying something.

Star Wars: the Old Republic may not be EVE. But I'll take the sound of dual blaster-pistols over "NURVV CLAOKING NAOW!!!11oneone!!" any day of the week.

Lol, someone did actually bite the troll.

Well played Greyscale, 10/10.

I wasn't biting at the troll, I was using the troll as a jumping-off point, as it were. Read that other thread--soon to be threadnaught--I mentioned, and you'll see why.

E: And it wasn't even a very good troll, at that....I'd say, at best, 5.5/10.

It would probably be better if you'd check the other thread and gave some answers there instead of looking like an idiot in this one.

How about you man up and get involved in some real PVP instead of griefing miners and people new to the game!

With what CCP are proposing they will be removing PVM (player vs. mechanics) from the game and actually PVP will be improved in a way that will most likely encourage more people to get involved in it, rather than making new players want to quite after being griefed by an empire war dec corp who know how to game the mechanics to keep them selves completely safe.

The wishlist is pretty much complete...

Everyone else looks like an idiot in this thread. Greyscale can do as he pleases to be honest Lol

Interesting changes btw, looks like can flipping will require a degree of competence and low sec pvpers will be able to come to high sec, get flagged and then deal with the ensuing blob of uncoordinated noobs all shooting at you. Should be much craziness Pirate

The proper area to PvP in is New Eden and that is by design.
