I have removed some posts regarding forum moderation.
Please report the thread/post or better yet, file a petition under the Community & Forums Category if you feel a moderation error has been made on the EvE forum.

As for the OP, he posted what effectively is a quit post. The ensuing discussion (although an interesting one) does not negate that fact. So by the forum rules, this thread does belong in OOPE.

11. Discussion of forum moderation is prohibited.

The discussion of EVE Online forum moderation actions generally leads to flaming, trolling and baiting of our ISD CCL moderators. As such, this type of discussion is strictly prohibited under the forum rules. If you have questions regarding the actions of a moderator, please file a petition under the Community & Forums Category.

32. "Quitting" posts are only permitted on the Out of Pod Experience channel.

CCP recognize that during the course of gameplay a lot of friendships are made between players and that sometimes if a player is taking a break or departing from the EVE universe that they would like to say goodbye on the forums. Posts of this nature are only permitted on the Out of Pod Experience forum, and must be civil and well worded.

EVE is a MMO. It is not a MMORPG.

FT Diomedes: "Reaver, sometimes I wonder what you are thinking when you sit down to post."

Yes it is.

We just get to role play more things than in the other MMOs. Like pirates and terroristsTwisted

I don't mind to lose ship, but I want to lose ship when I can afford to buy another one. I don't mind to do sometimes PvP, but to do PvP when I am ready and in good mood and also I have some experience in game.

I hope what one day they will do some space for PvE players and I can find PvE players in this game.

Name one other MMO that's older than 3 years old and does not have declining subscription number and player activity besides Eve. Just one, I dare you.

It's even a year older than EVE.

Not bothering reading the other pages, been here for a bit and know more or less what will everyone say, and I am morally obliged to repeat what my old friend Thalidar used to have in his bio:

EVE ONLINE PVP is entirely CONSENSUAL, you CONSENT TO IT WHEN YOU PRESS "UNDOCK"

Also welcome to OOPE, tired of your CRAP GD, really tired Big smile

I wonder if we should collaberate as OOPE to write an open letter to GD telling them what they should be discussing in OOPE and GD? Request it sticky, all sign ect...

The first part - that's easy. Fly small, cheap ships that are seriously tanked and stay in hisec. You're not very likely to be ganked soloing an L3 in a Drake or some such, and you shouldn't feel 60 mil loss that bad, especially if it's insured and you get like 35-40 mil back.

Since you're flying Gallente, a Drake is probably not your first choice, it's just an example. Take a Myrm, or something. Train relevant gun and drone skills, do it slowly. Always keep a second option handy, be it another ship, some spare cash, or something that can be quickly turned into money. This way you'll have something to fall back to (although, with the new Venture and all that mining boost stuff, you can easily get enough ISK to fit a cruiser in a couple hours.

Most importantly, as strange as it may sound, don't aspire to fly bigger ships for the sake of flying them. Think of ships as tools, and strive to be the famous master that can make the most of the simplest of tools, and not someone who needs an electron microscope to put a thread through the needle.

PvE players can be found in hisec, lowsec, nullsec, wh's (less likely to be "pure" PvE, but still...). If a player makes the choice to run missions and stay away from PvP, he doesn't automatically become a PvP player, if someone ganks him. Yet, he has participated in a PvP activity. And that's something to be kept in mind - there's PvE everywhere. It's just that PvP is also... everywhere.

Thank to all for nice posts. I have in my blood, I work hard to get this, so I can easy to lose, because you was in wrong time, and place. Because some know trick how to cheat ;-). Always is first time, but sometimes it cost a lot for you and someone made choice to you (Die) ;-)

When You go to do missions, so you always prepare ship for this missions, so which type to take armor and which weapon is better. So people who want to get kills, so they know players ship build, so they know weakest and strong side. So is easy to farm kills ;-)

i don't think you can. you just go inactive. or course, you could correspond with ccp to maybe get rid of it entirely but i don't know.

in my opinion your google translated self is with us for all time.

Wow...

Had to buy extra tear tank after just the OP. Can't wait to read the entire thread.


Keep the tears flowing.




EVE is a PvP game. If you want a PvE game where you are shielded from any PvP...go to that game that blizzard made (or any of it's clones).

Is not about this I am leaving ;-). As I told, I don't want anymore waist my time and money on this game. Also they made rule like 5 min your ship will be in battle even if you have DC (disconnect). Because I don't to like play game, like you have to worry about internet connection, even I have to worry about electricity, even i have to worry about EVE client that don't get crash or my PC can instantly restart ;-).
