no **** or boobs or tatas (whichever one gets past the filter) - because I have no respect for hisec PvP corps and what were the chances this one was any different from every other one I've encountered since my main started playing in '04.

and did some goony bird feathers get ruffled? That would be such a shame considering how they go about their entire existence worrying so much about being as kind and understanding about others as possible.

Try putting on a wizard hat and mumbling after going way past your limit of sasparilla so you can look like the fool your great leader is now known for being.

Go ahead and tell me I'm hiding behind a for sale alt which is about the same as you hiding behind a 1000 rifter blob waiting to pounce on anyone who dares get uppity with you low class bums. It certainly is not any worse than mr. can't hold his liquor lurking around in an alt for the next few weeks.


I can't put my finger on it, but you seem upset about something.

Whether you're for or against it, there's one truth here: people will show up to play a game together. I know this may seem altruistic, and you trolls will jump all over me for it, but think about this:

1. If you're 'Pro-Goon', you should be encouraging this action (as some already are), because it'll present you with more targets, and maybe even a little sport.

2. If you're 'Anti-Goon', you should be supporting this, as well. Here's your chance to get in a few jabs at a very low cost.

3. If you're an industrialist, you have a chance to participate in pvp--whether directly by flying in the local fight or indirectly by supplying ships and armaments for those that are.

4. If you're a carebear that may be interested in pvp, well...here you go. Hop in a cheap frig, outfit it with some basic tackle modules, and throw yourself at the invaders.


Seriously, the huge fleet battles of yore are rare nowadays. We aren't seeing the battle reports like we used to. This is NEWS, ENTERTAINMENT, FUN, however you want to refer to it. At the end of the day, if Pinky's 'Save Jita' initiative gets a few dozen/hundred carebears to hop into pvp and 'put up a fight', it'll speak VOLUMES MORE about the EVE community than either the 'Jita Burns' or recent Mittens drama...simply because more than one group is ACTIVELY participating in the event.

Nope, it's good to be excited about spaceships.

If you want to blow things up, loot things or feed people killmails, it's all good.

Now, if you want to get newer pants, other people might be willing to indulge you... or if you wanna just mine (there's no belts in Jita anyway I think)

The problem is, once the goons have been thoroughly embarrassed (again), they'll claim it was a huge success and take full credit for getting hundreds of carebears to PvP.

As I see it: the big picture...is that all of this has gotten people fired up and we actually have some content in hisec. I'm interested, but sorry I can't fly anything with guns....missiles is where it's at!!! (still wish the Naga would have been a torp or cruise boat...as it is; meh). Who cares if goons take credit after failing or not?

I'd like to try and get killed in the save Jita campaign, I'm pretty good at that you know. Hopefully CCP won't completely nerf hisec before then and make it an even 'better place' than it is now, because then there would be no need to save Jita.

Plus, OP is cute.

and Recoil something was angry about something else.

Please bring small ships with target painters our less experenced members want to blow up stuff too. Twisted You might want to run the total numbers again for the cfc. Its big not all the CFC voted for CSM. Think 12k min *3 ships(each person willing to personal fund min) = 36,000. So total ship loss is 1,000 ganked ships at min that with each one being a frighter worth 1,200,000,000 isk for the hull. So the total loss for the indys is going to be a min 1,200,000,000,000 isk just in hulls. Ya jita going to burn red in loss mail if anything.

Blah blah blah, something about being a primarily highsec PVP alliance

You mean that highsec ~elite pvp~ alliance that either wardecs small corps incapable of fighting back, or wardecs nullsec alliances to camp gates and station undocks for small gangs or solo pilots?

That's not very e-honoure-able of you.

Why this impacts you
As highsec dwellers we resent this incursion of nullsec players upon highsec, who seem intent on imposing the ways of elite PVP upon people who have absolutely no interest in fighting and just want to go about doing their business.

P.S. Your corp name is "Gank Bangers".

Sounds like a big waste of ISK.

But then most things in Jita are a waste of ISK these days.

To certain rational extents, nothing's a waste of ISK if you have fun doing it.

Suppose they gave a war and no one came

how to fix eve: 1) remove ECM 2) rename dampeners to ECM 3) add new anti-drone ewar for caldari 4) give offgrid boosters ongrid combat value
