Yeah, I thought you were serious there for a minute. My mistake.

I know I haven't posted in a couple of weeks due to the hurricane, but do you seriously don't remember what my viewpoints are? Ugh

Where did the "belligerent undesirable" meme come from?

This person.

I wrote some true EVE stories! And no, they're not of the generic "my 0.0 alliance had lots of 0.0 fleets and took a lot of 0.0 space" sort. Check them out here:

I still don't get why CCP thinks this is a good idea.

Consequences, duuuh.
Durrrr, but they're changing war-decs again because some leet pvpers couldn't handle a few consequences.

Who put the goat in there?

I don't generally keep mental track of people's viewpoints on things. Some people are easier to remember than others. I'm sorry to say you're not one of them. Don't take it personally. :P

Why would CONCORD prevent a third party player to player contract from being fulfilled?

Nah, they're changing it because it was broken. Just like the Dec shield was supposed to show (or so they claimed. I'm sure they also had/are having a great deal of fun)

Woo! CSM XI!

Because it was earned by committing a crime. Like if someone pays you too kill a man they don't let you keep the money.

There is ample justification to go either way.

EVE != tries sometimes to emulate aspects of real life

Fixed.

Some things are unrealistic do too game mechanics, others try to get it closer too realism.

Again there is ample justification to go either way. Why is one way better then the other?

You could say the exact same thing if buying the killright made CONCORD instantly arrive and blow up their ship, but that doesn't mean the consequences are good for the game.


Not good for the game, or not good for you personally?

New currency added.
Blood isk. Its only a % displayed in your wallet.
Its no more worthwhile than normal isk, and its counted with normal isk. But its ill-gotten tainted isk.

Its only use is to be recirculated into the market and eventually spread though any and all hands. Much like some small bills in your wallet could have been in a strippers woohah a month ago. Well this money was used to murder a target not get a lap dance... that's a different WIS currency.

You tell me. I'm not the one trying to make it so that CONCORD nullifies player bounty payouts.

Also, != means not equal to.

Obviously I'm only talking about myself since I live in that section of space where killrights actually mean something and CONCORD patrols the skies.

Sure. Bounties should be retaliatory, Assassination should not be CCP regulated.

Why place arbitrary restrictions on what bounties should be for?
CCP's intent for bounties is, quite literally, for whatever the hell you want to do with them.
Including what many people here would consider "griefing".

Too make it harder too commit or direct assaults in High Security Space.

Ya know like the entire reason for insurance Removal or Concord. Another road block to crime to get around.

You can still assassinate people but you have to pay someone in advance who might stiff you or convince them to do it while they risk being stiffed.
