EVE General Discussion

Heh. Yeah. I'm sure. Because the US government is entirely innocent of commiting any kind of action that might in some way gain them economic benefit. Nope, they've never been on a SINGLE oil-motivated invasion or anything.

I don't know, maybe. Like other rule violations..as stated by the OP..its all open to interpretation.

Dude, I don't know you, or where your coming from, but really, you sound as bad as any hi-sec carebear with your "profit"/"loss" statements...

If i were to start ganking again, isk would be a secondary concern.

1) CCP has a vision for the game now? If they do, it's clearly not a consistent one.

2) Those individuals have that power due to the mass assent of the playerbase as expressed through free elections.

3) Assuming CCP has a vision for the game, what evidence do you have that it has changed from their stated vision in 2003 of EvE as a cold, dark universe full of violence?

4) If you have evidence of corruption or inappropriate relationships between Devs and Players, CCP's Internal Affairs would like to hear it.

No it is not.
And you still haven't come up with something backing up your claim.


Edit

This is old but what the hey, read it then tell me again its an exploit: http://community.eveonline.com/ingameboard.asp?a=topic&threadID=818978&page=1#26 scroll down to post 26 then post 43.

1) If they don't have a vision, then nothing we or anyone else can do will stop this game from failing. Pray that isn't the case.

2) The elections have been absolutely plagued with allegations of corruption, vote-buying, intimidation, and favoritism.

3) I never pretended to know exactly what CCPs vision is, either then or now, and made no statements implying that I did. There is plenty of universe in New Eden for rampant violence, and I, personally, have never said that I want to end it. War and conflict is hardwired into human beings. However, the amount of rampant crime going on in Empire space is ridiculous. Not because I have objections to it due to personal reasons. I have never lost a ship in a scenario in which I didn't deserve to lose it. But, from a lore standpoint, the Empires should have much more of an interest in policing their space and keeping it safe for their own. Allowing thousands of murders and billions of ISK of property destruction, along with the consequent loss of industrial capability, sure is a ****-poor way to protect their interests.

4) If I had solid evidence of collusion, you're damned right I would report it. The problem is that the large alliances have no transparency, and no reason to have transparency. I'm not in one of them. I can see, from an outsider's point of view, that their interests may be being unduly protected. But, being an outsider means that I would have a great deal of problems trying to pinpoint specific problems or individuals. Naturally, the people that have gotten close enough to the corrupted individuals to be able to rat them out, wouldn't.

The role playing aspect of this is absurd, because Hulkageddon is not role play. It is an organized effort to collectively decrease the number of players mining in Highsec. This is griefing, which is perfectly acceptable in the eyes of CCP, as long as it's target is the populace at large. I can go out, and gank 100 different people, and there is no issue, because they are all isolated events. However if I gank the same person 100 times, I am deliberately making it impossible for them to play the game they have paid for, and it is a punishable offense.
Moreover, you are a CAPSULEER. You are immortal. What does CONCORD care if you get ganked? They are there to ensure that the laws are upheld, and when they are not, they act as judge, jury, and executioner of the wrongdoer. They spend their time protecting the people who NEED protection, the people who don't get a second chance. They leave it to you to deal with the dangers of flying in space.

According to CCP and the GMs that we as a corp and alliance have been told when we did our ice interdictions, spawning CONCORD in a belt to be bodyguards is a missuse of the mechanic and seen as an exploit. Anyone caught doing this will get a warning and further missuse will result in a temp ban. Anyone doing this should be reported to a GM.

What you are thinking about is not biomassing a ganking alt to avoid having to grind up sec status.
