EVE General Discussion

The arguments for all this recent nonsense are beyond ******** and completely di-polar.

- "Hulks dont belong in Hisec" yet, "EVE is a sandbox" (yes we ALL use our ships according to "Show info"
- "Play the way you want to play" yet "we kill noob miners in order to give them something they didn't ask for"
- "Emergent and Dynamic" yet "Indefinite Hulkageddon"
- "Build empires" yet "Myopic focus on Hisec miners"

and the BEST ONE (had to add it post-posting)

- "HiSec Miners are 'risk-adverse', yet gankers are the ones attacking NON-COMBAT mining ship with no offensive capability in a location that protects the aggressor from allied retaliation.

Where the hell is the risk in that LOL!

Meanwhile 0.0 is a vast wasteland.
Sorry kids, this whole thing is as cutting edge as a butterknife.

Can we get out of the mud?

+1, I completely agree.

Maybe its a reflection of what humanity is?

If aliens really are watching us, they must think we are all a bunch of retards.

Don't need to be an alien to notice that though

The OP is listing a number of claims being made about the current situation in EVE and is hoping that they are contradictory.

They're not, really.

My indy alt was able to mine in a hulk, unmolested for 6 hours yesterday afternoon and early evening. It was a .5 system.

Get over thus fear of ganking. It happens, but no where near as often as you think. If you gave ganking problems, move to a lesser known location.

Seriously, this isn't that hard to figure out, nor that difficult to deal with.

Pretty much this. Also, while there seem to be a handful of player 'events', the lack of imagination involved when compared to previous years really stretches the idea that it is in any way 'content' rather than business as usual but with a bit of extra forum trolling.

TBH, I don't know why the gankers bother trying to come up with reasons. I mean, as long as they are not griefing and not using exploits, they are:

1. They are criminals, or will be once they gank in high sec.
2. They are committing criminal acts when ganking in highsec.

That's basically it. Nothing to defend. It is what it is. That's what it is, nothing more, nothing less.
No need to defend criminal behavior.
If you're trying to defend criminal acts, you're doing it wrong.

EAAAAAT IIIIITTTTT - No alt here.

And for the record - I dont mine much but if I do mine its in in Null and W-Space, where EVERYDAY is Hulkageddon. I really dont care about protecting hi-sec mining per-se. (Oddly enough - people want bounty for killing hi-sec miners - so now Nullsec mining is safer since nullsec is empty.)

It's just annoying as all hell to hear about every day and the arguments coming from the gankers is just stupid. Just kill and be done with it, stop trying to make everyone think you are doing us all a favor. Arguments are invalid, just do it and stop bitching, they are getting worse than the carebears they are trying to "train."

Rather listen to my 7 month-old cry for an hour. It is a much more interesting conversation.

Hulks have every right to be in high-sec. So does my Catalyst. If they happen to cross paths, oh well.



Hmm, I think today I will go plexing in Goon null-sec. HEY! QUIT TRYING TO KILL ME! IM PLAYING THE WAY I WANT TO PLAY! STOP OPRESSING ME!



How is this not emergent and dynamic? This is a player created event that will change the direction of the game. This is CCP's wet dream.



You fail to see the bigger picture. Killing miners is indeed fun, but this is a strategic move on the part of the Goons to control not only null-sec but the economy as well. You are witness to the building of an empire. You dont like it because you are probably on the losing end.
