I thought dueling only happened on the forums. Usually between AFK Cloaker Whiners and Actual Real People.

I have already come up with the 1st trick Im gonna try with this new system.

What else is funny - I bet boosts will still work during a '1v1' making the entire dueling system pointless.
It'll really be 2v1's everywhere and 1/2 the poor suckers won't even realize they have really just been fighting 2 people.


If CCP were serious they would do a tutorial on bookmarking a safe and tell people to go and fight in a safe if they want a 1v1.
Same thing without the exploits and there are many possible exploits with this new system - one of which I can't wait to try out.

Oh, I see.

You seek to achieve relevance by suggesting that you personally came up with the idea of sanctioned duels in EvE.

Also, you thank CCP as if you were truly and honestly believing they did what "YOU" suggested.

Listen, pal. You had ZERO part in this. No inspiration, idea or development of this new system can be attributed to you whatsoever.

Also, dueling systems had been discussed since the beta.

Two minutes in Google and I found a thread about this which predates yours. 3 years in fact.

And another one from 2007 as well.

So no, sorry. It's not "your" Duel System.

Also, I hate your Michael Bolton-esque mug which I'd punch quite happily.

I blame CCP, they didn't have to take any notice of us.

Getting you on your feet.

I played Aeon for about one day once. Kept getting asked, "Wanna dual?" (yes, misspelled like people here) by people constantly... I told both them and the game to **** off.

Yeah, EveO really needed dueling...

I'm waiting to see how long before the first "duel invite spam exploit" threads turn up.

Real or imagined its bound to happen.

People are so cruel.

At least give him his moment no matter how inconsequential it might have been.
