They never feel bad when doing such things.

As you have read, the carebear cannot be satisfied or reasoned with.


Neither can PVPers, mind you.

ps. For years I have asked for addition of new toys in the sandbox, instead of just adjusting the sandbox this way or that.

Every idiotic thread of this nature which does nothing but divide the community and foster hatred should be insta locked and its poster suspended from the forums. Get over it already, people play for different reasons and the game is what it is.

When you use those three letters in the combination, pvp, people take that to mean shooting/fighting/killing/blowing stuff up. It is the "EVE is a PvP game" players that are changing the definition to fit their needs at the time.

The next time your overlord say it's time to do a little bit of pvp, show up in your hauler in a mining, buying, selling, etc. toon. Tell me how that works for you. :)

The next time some friends say let's do some pvp go dock up and start trading... let's see how long takes before they ask you WTF are you doing dude? :)

While the general definition of PVP does in fact state player vs player, the general/reasonable/average/normal player knows that pvp means shooting/killing/blowing up.

I just don't understand null sec players.

**Please note: **Anytime I use the phrase PvP in a post, I'm talking about shooting/combat/killing things/blowing things up. Thank you.

I agree. You don't feel bad in the slightest, do you?

A long time ago a certain pirate not to be named got really, really angry and sent a terse letter to her Majesty Queen Elizabeth complaining that it was far to hard to take merchant ships when they had combat ships escorting them, and could her Majesty please stop giving into the seabear mentallity that was making his life a daily grind. That letter never reached her Majesty as the real griefers and gankers of the high seas found that whinny little worm of a pirate who was making them look like my little pony and hello kitty lovers and roundly kicked his ass before sending him to the bottom wrapped in his own anchor.

Pirates don't whine about how hard the gank is, they boast about how hard the gank was.

Gankers and griefers HTFU.

Agreed. Never is the key word though. It's perfectly ok to assume you are usually safe from the actions of other players if you take certain, smart precautions. :)

I just don't understand null sec players.
