EVE General Discussion

So I was mining in High Sec listening to disco at my keyboard when all of a sudden what should happen? A group of TERRORISTS comes along and accuses me of mining without a license! I all of a sudden need a mining license to mine veldspar? They blow up my mining barge and demand that I pay homage to James 315, pay 10million isk a year to mine and put a message in my bio stating that James 315 is the savior of high sec among other things.

THIS IS HARASSMENT HIGH SEC IS SUPPOSED TO BE 100% SAFE FOR PEOPLE WHO JUST WANT TO FLY SPACESHIPS!!!!! I just want to fly spaceships and be happy! I want to run missions and mine! I don't see why I should fall victim to HACKERS who EXPLOIT the GAME MECHANICS to HARASS people. I'm a cripple and the only enjoyment I get out of life is watching timers go down in internet spaceship games. You're just losing CCP money when miners leave the game because you blew their hard earned ships up.

yes

Steam is having their summer sale: X3:Terran Conflict for only $3.99: http://store.steampowered.com/app/2820/ Or you can pick up the entire X2 to X3 series for $19.99.


Oh, wait, did you actually mean "I'm trolling, look at me! Look at me!"? Sorry, my bad, please ignore my response.

You're trying to hard, this is old news, just move (that last just in case you've been living under a rock for the last year *or* aren't a 315 troll/bottom feeder/sycophant).

Edit to add: You are *no* kind of "elite forum anything".

Sad thing is that people will still fall for it.

lol

Not true, my friend. I support the New Order for economic reasons. I enjoy having my competition put down, and I enjoy the better sales prices in those areas as a result.

I also thoroughly approve of the defeat of the bots, and the bot aspirants. Such "people", are literally paying not to play the game. Hardly fitting of someone I would call my equal as a "gamer". The quality of the playerbase has been improved as a result.

Not banned (it's an allowable game play), but effective counters (and the devs know harvesting is a solo activity, and making ships with zero offenses is for cheap ganking and pure lazy programming).

The game is setup like this: PvPers need something to kill for PvP to work. To reward PvPers of all stripes the kills have to be difficult for the pros, but also easy for wash outs. Since EvE is also a game about resource control, one method is to kill the harvesters. If it's around the edges of the design it's tolerable, because the miners will accept it as part of the game play. But when it becomes THE tactic in High-Sec, then if it's allowed it disrupts the game itself (since it's about resources and controlling access to them. Do too much interrupting the whole system suffers).

The mining ship changes didn't occur in a vacuum or devs saying, "it's time for ship revamps". It's to counter some of the mess that these gankers have created without upsetting the apple cart too much (it helped on eliminating the problems with can-flipping). But mining ships are still designed to not fight back. It's still depended on a group to protect them, when harvesting is a solo activity (EQII tried to make Tradeskilling a group activity, those group instances died pretty fast, and tradeskillers do them solo now). No PvPer likes to babysit. Which encourages solo harvesting, so gankers can have easy prey.

The problem is the flaw in the design, and players aren't going to resolve it, because it's counter in what they consider fun (and it's not babysitting a solo activity).

If miners can fight NPC ships, they can fight player ships.

I'm just surprised that the New Order still exists.
Bearing in mind the name they have "New Order" is the name of a neo-nazi religious group and their beliefs are similar, how does their name not violate half the rules on here:

Maybe that's something that should be ticketed.

It is both incredibly stupid and incredibly offensive to try and compare a "New Order" organisation in the game universe to real life extremist groups. "New Order" is nowhere near a violation of the user policy. Go back to spacelawyer school, because you are bad at it.

You are also genuinely a bad human being if you compare shooting spaceships in a game to real life bigotry and atrocities.

Hope this helps
