It is lame to tell others what they elude only to make room for your little world. You are eluding the main aspect of MMOs and that it is not just another single-player game. Now you want your view to be understood, which is that it is all just a board game to you... Does this not make you feel terribly stupid or that you are living one hell of a lie? I cannot take you serious. If I picked up your view then I would ask myself why I am talking to pieces of a board game and why I want them to understand me. It shows how bonkers you are.

Loss is meaningful. Therefore is the loss of meaning likewise meaningful. It is the source of all trolling.

you misread, it's a board game I play with a team, the people I socialize with. It's a perfectly normal human way of thinking to care most about the people around you, and very little about those you do not know.

It's the core tribal mechanic which raised us up as a species...

I have no reason to see what anybody else does in the game in any other terms than those OF the game. They are pieces on the board, until such a time as I actually get to know them, because before that time there is no person for me to relate to.

Is it just me or does having a Hulkageddon in the current market seem very illogical?
on one hand players are complaning about the rising prices of ships and moduels because of the increason minerals prices.

but at the same time they are going out of their way to try and limite the supply of minerals even further buy killing the very ppl that could held drive the price back down where paying for pvp becomes resonable again.



You attempt to assign logic to a group and process that don't understand the meaning of the word.

The people behind this have no interest in the market; they buy their ships/etc with real life monies in the form of Plex and GTC.

They only have a single focus; to ruin the game for as many as possible.

Their highest achievement is the rage-quit. They consider this the pinnacle of success.

These are no secrets. They have openly bragged as much, and continue to do so at every opportunity.

Once they finally manage to kill this game, they, like the invaders portrayed in the movie Independence Day, will simply move on to the next game that catches their attention, rinse and repeat.

There is no logic in this, so stop looking for it.

The best thing you *CAN* do is to ignore them.

Refuse to play the game their way. The greatest feature of EvE is that nobody can really dictate your gameplay; that only happens if you fall for the ruses and traps.

Just ignore them.




I pay for my ships through market manipulation and speculation. I can't afford to pay RL money for a plex. I stay subbed through plex, too.

And you are all about Fun ofcourse Roll


I'm 100% all about fun. In particular my fun, and the fun of those I socialize with.

Specifically, I care absolutely nothing about your fun, anyone that I do not know personally is just a boardpiece in a game.

Anyone that claims differently is deluding themselves.

Do you feel bad when you undercut someone on the market? No? Good. You just PVPed someone in a non-consensual fashion, just like I do when I destroy a ship.

Those who like to claim some moral high ground about space pixels are just giving themselves a mental reach-around.


The imagined pixel superiority of elitist low secc PvPers who think doing anything else in a sandbox game is n00b and for carebears it a much better point of view then?
Its like democrats vs republicans both sides are filled with evil douchbags, but neither side see themselves that way.


You're dumb and you didn't understand what I wrote, but that is fine.

I don't think carebearing is dumb or bad at all, without them, who would build my ships and weapons?

I do however feel that many carebears have a stick the size of the statue of liberty up their backsides and incorrectly assume an imaginary moral highground, based on the fact they cannot recognize the fact that everything THEY do is ALSO non-consensual pvp.

This is a subtlety of EVE that seems to elude most of them.

It is an argument now to say people have a stick up their backside? If so then you can add yourself to the list.

ITT using a turn of phrase makes a person's arguments invalid.

So many threads and talk about hulkageddon, Jita and so on, that will change nothing.
Sometimes I wonder, why waste your time, it's illogical.

Not really. Some harvest tears or whatnot, others hope one day CCP will make hi sec into a land where there is no danger from people blowing you up without your permission, every whine is a step towards more spank and less gank.
