You see, you're mistaken here. There are quite a few people on these very forums who are specifically asking for just that.

Further, if we have the resources and influence to pay gankers, then thanks to the sandbox, we're allowed to do that. If miners don't like it, they need to make a low or nullsec alliance and work together for protection and profit. Begging for CCP to swoop in and alter the game to fit their play style isn't playing the game at all.


I think those people are in the minority though. Most eve players know that ganking is a necisary part of the game and good for the economy.

I just feel a little sorry for the guy with one account trying to make a living in eve and while the bigest alliance in the game seeks to vilafy him in the eyes of the community. He already has the sole destroyingly boring mining mechanic to deal with Blink

And i agree, if you guys have the resources to fund an activity like hulkagedon, they you are well within your right to do so. I just wish you didn't claim you do these things for the good of the game when in actuality, it's just for your personal enjoyment/gain.

Doesn't everyone do things ingame that they personally enjoy? And also generates gain? Why the hell else play a game but for enjoyment. The 'good of the game' comes in as: dread pirate types have something to do and also makes isk, newbee goons have something to do, vets have something to do, bloggers have something to blog about, Jade Constantine has something to talk trash about and miners learn to protect themselves or nerdrage and quit.

Also- THE ECONOMY

Of course they do but not everyone claims that their selfish acts are for the good of the community.

So then who decides what is good for the community? Define: good

The fact is: publicity is good for the game and community. Goons make stories. PC Gamer and Eurogamer don't write about miners, they write about miners getting ganked, they write about epic scams, they write about goons and their antics. Here's some comments from their article on Burn Jita

I don't play EVE and probably never will, but it sure makes some of the best damn gaming news stories.

I agree. I love reading the stories about the game and devs and the community that sounds awesome.

Eoino says:

Makes me want to start playing this game again...

I find EVE to be fascinating. It's the only subscription MMO I've ever wanted to play

Jackohbite says:

My God, this is fantastic. I don't want to play Eve, but the emergent storytelling potential of the game is absolutely inspiring.

And so on and so forth. We get all kinds of bitter vets returning after years when they here about the latest stuff going on. This is a good thing.

isn't it what EVERY Mittani's pet (i mean member of goonswarm) does in forums? Claiming that hulkageddon in good, miners are bad and play wrong way, killing miners leads to the better game, etc.....Shocked

The Mittani: "the inappropriate drunked joke"

I for one think comparing highsec miners to Jews in 1930s Germany is more accurate than not.


One could almost tell your online hours from the fact that you think this comparisation was a bright idea.

Quick, lock this topic due to lack of content.

No, wait, its a Goonccp thread.

Of course they can afford to fund their own style of play, they design the game.
How hard is it to program isk into mittanni's account?

Soo people are supposed to play the game the way you like ?


And in relation to that. I will play it however I like. If I want to blow up mining barges I have as much right to do so as you do to play the game however you want. If you don't like it... stop me.


How exactly how am i supposed to stop your alt from destroying a mining barge which is basically made of paper ? Once u attack a mining barge..its dead... ITS defenseless !! Do you understand the meaning of Helplessness/defenselessness. You cant stop something like this. Its impossible. If its possible tell me.. plz to tell me how to tank a retriever/covetor...

Attacking a community of new players which use mining barges which in no way can fight back is bullying. AM all for banning bots... but Bots got nothing to do with this

if you really wanted to ban bots you would report them to GM,s . only thing i see here is Mitani's over inflated ego .. Lol


I won't tell you how to tank a covetor. But I can tell you that they can be vicious beasts.

Why yes, I'm quite certain the obvious sockpuppet troll account can explain exactly every single dent in it's tinfoil hat (to protect it from the EVIL GOONCP MIND CONTROL RAYGUNS) to us.

I really, really wish there was a forum setting so that we could auto-ignore anyone in an NPC corp, any characters under say, 90 days old, with under 60k skillpoints, et cetera.

While we all love our newbies over in Goonswarm, the CCP forum model makes sockpuppet trolling absurdly, insultingly, easy.
