Player Features and Ideas Discussion

It's a simple solution really...

1) If CONCORD is involved, a) No Insurance payout , and b) No Killmail issued!
This means you need to wardec your targets...

2) Divide the NPC corps into two branches, a "training" branch where the Training Agents train the rookies. While in "Training" you are under "Trial Account" ship restrictions. The last Training Agent "Graduates" the rookie and puts them into a Faction "Transfer" branch (for those in transit between Player Corps) Place a Draconian Corp Tax Rate (80%+) on players in transit to encourage joining or creating player corps. This will discourage sitting in NPC corps and making ISK without the threat of being wardecced.

Before you complain about the Draconian tax rate, think about this. Being in an NPC Corp makes you an "employee" of that Corp. Your wages should be a mere fraction of your labor value, if you want more, become "Self Employed" i.e, One Man Corp and take the business risks!

You're in denial about what people kill for. KB is a blight upon Eve. I'd rather they remove it completely, but this would be a step in the right direction.

1.) If I suicide gank a mining vessel, concord wont be involved in the loss of the mining vessel. Concord will only be involved in the loss of my ship. I don't see the point in removing any killmails from the game... and so I don't support this. Besides, the killmails from victims are a great way for creating & judging events like hulkageddon, player run tourneys, and many player run events. Why would you want to remove this unique and frankly, awesome use of the sandbox?

2.) Tax rate doesn't effect all activities in EvE. You can be in a corp with 100% tax rate, and still mining all the ore you want, do massive amounts of station trading, participate in Research and Manufacturing, etc... We should have an incentive to move out of NPC corps, but I don't know if an 80% tax rate will do the job in a balanced manner. What exactly are you trying to change?

I find your view point interesting... I was living on Long Island during the 9-11 attacks, and take to heart much of what you said.

And after considering it, you really pissed me off with this BULLSH$T!!!

1.) NO ONE IN EVE IS A CIVILIAN!!!! EvE stands for EVERYONE vs EVERYONE. An army convoy, carrying equipment or war supplies is NOT a civilian target, just like an Iteron V is NOT a civilian target. Just because a person is in hauler or a mining vessel does NOT make them a civilian, especially since they can swtich ships into a military vessel at ANY time.

2.) Suicidal missions, or missions where high casaulties are expected, happen when the goal is important enough to warrant the losses, and have been a MAJOR part of warfare for as long as humans have been battling each other. We nickname "suicide ganking" as suicidal, but there is NO SUICIDE in EvE. The only things lost are ships. No PEOPLE die!!! In game lore, WE ARE IMMORTAL!!! In other words, the Terrorst Bombings in NY, Japan, Israel, and elsewhere are NOTHING LIKE "suicide ganking" in EvE. They are apples and oranges, and if they offend you, then HTFU or GTFO.

3.) You cannot MOD EvE to resemble anything in real life. It is NOT a flight simulator, it is NOT a FPS. You can't design it to look like anything in RL, as it's a space game. So you're comparisons to doom, or MS's flight similator are completely irrelevant.

Finally, lets be blatantly honest here: You wrote your post to solicite an emotion response on current hot media topics. Guess what, STFU you piece of ****. You didn't actually think about what you wrote, you just looked for buzzwords to draw negative attention to yourself and EvE. This is nothing but a pathetic attempt to pigeonhole CCP with bad publicity into changing an aspect of the game you don't like. The parallels you pulled out your ass have no bearing on the actual gaming environment!!! So please, do us all a favor, and quit. GTFO, because your whiny, bitchy, pathetic ass is not wanted here!!!!

Another option is to force the ganker to pay a percentage or a total of the insurance paid to the vessel. This would require Tech 2 insurance being adjusted from the absolutely insanely low amounts they pay first though.

In essence:

1) Miner in belt min(d)ing own business makin' rocks pop.
2) Another miner joins him further down the belt. [it's a spy!!!]
3) Suddenly: Gankers.
4) Hulk / Barge dies.
5) Gankers wallet suddenly shows a decrease of 125,700,000.00 ISK (random figure used for example) [wtfomgbbqragequit]
6) Miner sees full amount of insured vehicle deposited to wallet

In this scenario the ganker would be forced to pay for damages caused, which could also make collateral non-WT damage decrease in wars around big hubs or other busy places, and the miner would be better off buying insurance because it would make the ganker suffer more.

Also a popup could be added stating:

"You have low funds and this action to put you into a negative balance. Are you sure you want to do this?"

This has to be a troll, because no one can be that dumb.

I have a better solution. Learn to mine aligned, gankers become an endangered species.

It really is that simple.


Or... be lazy, die to lazyness.

Oh, nevermind, apparently you're a troll.

Being x military (19-D cav Scout) With a background in counter intelligence, and Anti Terrorism, I have to say, if you think NPC corps have to do with training Terrorists, your full of ****.

NPC corps restrict the exact activity and training which is REQUIRED to do such in EvE, and you can only Do said actions and training in Player corporations.

Do you think Goon which is the largest Terrorist Organization on the Internet and Blatantly Claims such in their forums and is Damn proud of it would be such as they are if you Forced all of their members into different scattered NPC corp under NPC corp restrictions?

No, they wouldn't, they would wither and die under such restrictions. (Or at least the EvE Online Cells would which is about 10,000 + of their membership)

I mean CCP if anything is likely to get taken down for allowing Goon to exist in EvE being a known Terrorist Organization in Real life on the web, and guilty of all manner of computer crimes and terrorist actions across the world. (Please note that terrorists actions does not only include blowing **** up. It means any illegal action or tactic used to instill fear and terror to gain control of others and force them to do what you desire).

More then anything else, So if your looking for terrorists in EvE start Que queuing about Goonswarm/Goonwafe Because that's the only terrorists who are actually terrorists, and use eve to train terrorists in eve.

I'm full of **** you say? Well Vent convos with Goons trying to get me to join their side and way of thinking in which they tell me all of this and make claims to events says otherwise. Not all terrorist organizations are religious, no the most efficient and effective ones are simply made up of like minded psychopaths who just want to watch the world burn.

And anyone who knows a Goon decently well (and I know several), knows their mentality is exactly that, a Psychopath who just wants too see the world burn and feeds off the misery and pain of others.
