Sorry, things don't become true just because you want them to be (or think they are).



In this case its true because its true.


We should just take your word for it? Give us some facts, references, numbers... something other than "I know EVERYTHING!"

Also, you've got a dang edit button. Use it. Double posts make you look addled.

pvp = player vs player. It doesnt matter how one sided it gets.

So... You're saying that the new Mining Barge-stats completely eliminate PvP except in every way possible? Or am I mistaken? Granted, they made it impossible to solo-gank a Procurer or Skiff, but really. Did anybody actually use those two ships until the changes?

SO because you cant gank mining barges it eliminates pvp? So because u can get a 5m ship and gank a 300m ship it counts as pvp. wow more tears mofos. These barge changes will make more isk to gank high value barges. I support it keep crying gankers it feels so good:)

king hulk is not going to be lord of the miners anymore, the mining frigates will no longer be mining frigates, their job is going to a mining frigate. The hulk and covetor will be the roid munchers, the retriver and mack will be the fatboys with big ore holds and the procurer and skiff will be the bricks of the mining world.

Miners are whining because we can still kill them and the bad gankers are whining because they are bad at ganking.

Skiff and procurer will be the tanky ones. The others will be slightly better to no change.

Judging someones morales on what they do in Eve is like judging an actors morales based on a role he played in a movie.


Ah, but actors are given/offered specific roles, and how they portray them is influenced to some extent by the director. An EVE player has complete creative freedom and as such you can tell a lot about their mentality by how they choose to play.

Don't spend all your time griefing people in RL? For some it is only RL consequences that stops them. Put them in New Eden and take away those consequences and they now have the freedom to be the annoying assholes that they always wished they could be.

Anyway, I'm a noob so what do I know?
