EVE General Discussion

Do you actually have a point? I wasn't a part of Lawn when it was a part of the NC so I could really give a damn about what happened then. That's part of life, empires rise empires fall. Hell the last two alliances I was a part of managed to get themselves commisarried out of the cluster we were just lucky/good enough to see the writing on the wall and get out ahead of the drama.

Doesn't change my point one bit. Lawn was smart enough to make common cause with friends who were big enough to help them survive. That's the way this game works, make friends be successful, be a selfish anti-social dimwitt and fail, then cry about it on the forums.

So.forgive any randomness but I'm ill and full of cough medicine but I believe I have had an epiphany. Thereason that nbsinullseccers are so anti social is so they can make isk in safety so they can pvp. The reason they want highsec nerved is so that they are the only ones with this advantage having worked for it.
If they want hIgh sec income nerved then in the interest of games balance they should run a more open and welcoming system.
But eve was never designed to be balanced so people should ALL htfu and do whatever makes the game fun for them if they can

Look at the map, figure out which percentage of it has >10 people in it.


As opposed to nullsec, which got thoroughly pissed on fun-wise around dominion and has been hit with nerfbat after nerfbat to the point where most people spend their off-PVP time in hisec, lowsec, WHs etc instead?

Yeah, about that...

It was a buff to the "structure-shooting playstyle". Take for example, our very own DaBigRedBoat

Anti-social? We're the most social players in EVE. You have to be in order to survive in 0.0, which is full of goals and objectives that can only be achieved by working together. If anyone is anti-social, it's the guy running to the forums because he's out of ideas on how to break into 0.0 by himself.

Actually, what we want is fiscal incentives to bring in industrialists/carebears. As of now they are dead weight and ganker lures, which is the real lesson you can take from NRDS.

how come your list only has bad points for NRDS and good points for NBSI then?

I kicked and screamed when Null got nerfed too and I wasn't even in Null at the time.

That's the flaw to NBSI.
Everyone is your enemy, even when they aren't. I don't need to be NBSI. I don't need to look for a fight behind every gate. I can let the neut warp away. I still get more fights than I can handle. Go figure.

So thats why you want to nerf Hisec.....

If you can think up ways to make nullsec capable of doing bottom up financing so alliances would have a vested interest in making sure its own space was used in preference to hisec, which was implementable without ruining the economy or anything similar, cough it up.

I seriously have no idea what you are on. But it must be some potent herb because your posts make zero sense.

My argument is simple. NRDS gives all the initiative and combat advantage to outsiders rather than those who live in the space, While NBSI gives the locals a even shot at shooting first. That's why NRDS is fail and will never see widespread adoption outside of a group of people who were stupid enough to think that it would be a great basis for an alliance premised on racial supremacy (CVA) in fact back in my naive newbie days when I still had some thoughts about E-Honor I had actually looked at and dismissed CVA as an option because of the cognitive dissonance of a bunch of "racists" (yeah I know role-playing) and anti-piracy.

As far as it being a baseless snipe, I disagree. The OP has the exact same mindset as those who foolishly think that nerfing highsec will somehow drive people to low/null. If you were actually familiar with my posting history you'd know that I was never one to support such foolishness. It's that mindset that thinks that you can force someone to do something they find unpleasant for enjoyment.

The attitude that if one can't "hack it" at something in the game, that if others somehow manage to do something they can't then the game should be changed to accommodate their inadequacies. Be it the low sec gate camper crying because his fail crew couldn't kill a freighter in less than the minute it took it to despawn after the pilot discoed on a gate jump or the pirate crying about how level-4s should be moved to low sec so they could get access to those shinny mission ships (as if people would be taking their blinged out mission boats into low sec to get ganked) or the "small fleet" elite PVPer crying about blobs and NAPs/NIPs because he can only find fleets bigger than his own. The common thread is someone who is asking for a solution to a problem that doesn't actually exist. and who wants a special accommodation to make their own lives easier in by making someone else's more difficult.

You are trying to make this into a Null vs Highsec thread, but it's not. It's a smart people who understand the game and how it works vs whiny dimwits who can't figure out how to work within the existing system.
