Crime & Punishment

It's funny because it works :)

Just for me if you please..

What does the "pubbie" stands for .. i lack any association with such word so i dont really have a clue where to put it.

I got some ideas but i could be mislead by my own imagination.

I would say the idea you've probably got is the way they're using it, regardless if they say it's something else.


It's the kind of thing children do to elicit a reaction from others.

Look up a few posts to your response.

And your point is?

If somebody has to explain the joke to you it won't be funny. Figure it out on your own ffs

So I wonder how long until they change the name of the game to Goons online?

Wake up CCP. The sandbox is full of bullies making it impossible for new players to get a foothold.

There was a time when there was honor in the sandbox. Now it's full of goon turds.

How long do you think this collection of malcontents will continue to sub to your game when they run out of targets?

You better wake up and realize a couple of things.

The majority of new players choose mining as their route to beginning their fortune in Eve. It takes people a while to build the knowledge base and the resources to participate in more lucrative endeavors and move away from mining.

When I started my first account, six years ago, I did just that. I mined in high sec for months. I learned to tank my hulks and some of the other tricks the hard way but by the time I lost my first hulk to a ganker, I was well equipped to buy many, many more ships. This is not the case with newer players as suicide ganking is now all the rage. It is not uncommon for newer miners to lose their first industrials (which ain't cheap to a new player) within hours of purchasing it. Most people today won't tolerate many of these losses and will simply move on.

You better look into ways of making the new player experience less of an exercise in futility and more of a training experience in how to deal with corporations like goons and players like those that populate that travesty of an organization. Word on the street is you need new accounts and you need them to stick around a while.

The only people who enjoy non-consensual pvp are the aggressors. High Security should mean exactly that, high security. Currently it is a joke and is precisely the reason you can't retain new players. Let the pvper's own low and null sec and allow those that want to peacefully participate in your game do so as well or you can continue to watch it circling the drain.

In your rush to please the veterans and cater to players such as those in Goons, you have succeeded in making your game very unattractive to a much larger audience. You can only please those vets for so long, history has proven this to you time and time again. Your focus should be on new subs and how to keep them.

decshields or not, wardecs are cheap

Can someone explain to me why this is posing such a problem?

If it's just in gallente space, and only ice, why do those affected not move to another region or change occupation (for a while) if they are not able to protect themselves?

I mean, it's EVE, you always need a plan b.

to OP:
i don't like goons, i don't like gankers.....

but seriously: why you lock yourself to mining? Eve is a big universe. You have a lot of stuff to do.

If you a "casual player" then just buy fc..ng plex and get fun. Anyway you have no fun from the game.
BTW: me is a casual player too. But i have no need to mine ICE anyway. There is so many things you can do to get fun and gring ISK so i really don't see any problem.
