Going off your first post. Who is "we" and who are "they". Cause whoever "they" are, Is griefin you very well. And whoever "we" are, Well you are only one space-vatar the "we" part needs specifics. I thought Skunkworks was full of crafty thick skinned mechanic studying bad asses. Are you guys running out of new things to think up or something. I really wish i could help. But again specifics need to be displayed. What exactly is it you think should be changed to further help you in your adventures? From where i stand, CCP (whom i assume is the "they" ) is adding new stuff for you guys erry spansion and fixin the old stuff you have either overdone or has gotten way out of hand. What gives?

Either way, Even if you cant post me specifics. I wish you guys (the "We" whomever they are) the best of luck in your adventures in the way you play this game.


Yeah, basically that. Dec scraping is the biggest issue. Beyond that, it's not really a problem with specific nerfs, it just seems like every single week there's some kind of stealth nerf on some decent, not-totally-OP kind of scam or grief. Like wreck baiting. Why the **** did that need to be nerfed at least twice? Nobody was on a wreck-baiting rampage killing every single person who wandered across their path.

And why are they all stealth nerfs? And why are we coddling people to such a degree that they all think they're entitled to whatever behaviour they like without being interfered with at all?

That I have to ask these sorts of questions is what's getting me in a table-flipping mood.

They, in this case, are CCP.

Someone who is overly obsessive on a subject. There are better words for someone who is deeply interested in something: "expert" or "hobbyist" or "passionate". Nerds are something else. They will argue for hours why their particular choice in audio/video/computer hardware is superior to all others, even when no one else is arguing with them. Nerds are convinced that they are the authority on the subject, regardless of the facts. They're the people, in this frame of reference, who think they know all there is to know about Eve. Anything that upsets that view sends them into a rage, and anyone who doesn't play by their arbitrary rules of the game should be banned. Given my corp's blatant efforts to push the envelope with the rules, guys like that absolutely HATE how we play the game.


Sounds like you equate a nerd with a NPA Personality Type. If that's the case, then we're agreed because no one likes a NPA.

As for "someone that I could wipe the floor with in a fight"...I don't generally try to test such theories. No matter who wins the fight, the cops and/or bouncers see to it that both parties lose.


Pretty mature statement if you ask me.

EVE is an illness, for which there is no cure.

Highsec was fine, and didn't have nerfs to suicideganks etc until people started to make isk in high (2007 onwards, mainly). That has unfortunately attracted a playerbase that keeps feeding CCP with money, so now they can't afford to a) have highsec players being pissed and leaving the game, b) reduce their income to reasonable levels.

Who really cares about crimes in highsec, when it's going to be the end of EVE's economy at some point if nothing happens. Fix that balance first, then I'm sure you come a long way towards 'fixing' the carebear whines in highsec as well (as most of them would/should move out to low-, wh and null).

33 pods and counting.
Did around 7 billion ISK of damage so far, not counting costs of their clones.

Trying to avoid pods from 2012, because i care about noobs.
They could have implants.

Most prominent supporter so far:
An autopiloting pod from PL, containing a full high grade slave set + other expensive implants.


Yes, i want that billion ISK. :)

I think you've got work to do, then. I believe there are some dudes still ahead of you.

The killboard I was going to have set up for this fell through, though, so we won't know for sure until I get one set up. I'm reaching out to everyone I know who's even remotely related to killboard things. I'll post here once it's up.

Good work on the pods, keep it up!

Dudes, I still need *audio* submission of tears. I mean, all submissions of tears are excellent, but especially audio submissions.
