I was expecting that response. The usual hurf blurf.

You know what will happen?

Harry will get another ship.


You forgot, "then we will all have a good laugh at his expense".

[Edit: You seem to think that any of us care about the small costs involved. We don't. At this point, if I get an awox alt into his fleet/corp/whatever, I do it for the lulz, and the lulz alone.

When we were in null together, i haven't fleeted much with any of you simply because trust is something you have to earn. Never fleet in LS or null with someone you don't know a lot.


I think you do not trust others because you are not trusthworthy on your own

you might did play the game in simular ways and that is the reason holding you back

everybody can have my trust right from the start, there is nothing to earn

however once lost, it never will come back

OK so I only read the OP and basically, we could see this is a "switch option". If I am talking to my friends on the phone, I don't have to tell them where I am.

You clearly didnt read the OP.

"lockon to fleet members should be removable by the fleetcommander

after leaving fleet there should be a 1-5 minute timer, where you are not able to lockon to old fleetmembers either"



Your fleet members dont know where you are, unless you tell them, however, "Unable to lock on to fleet members != not knowing where fleet members are"

(also, its not super difficult to find out where people are, but then, you know that :) )

The more important question is, who made the Don Quixote picture for the forums?




Ah yes I was under the impression that this was about location, not locking on.


But you are the first to explain that. Thank you.


So far the only thing I can think of is a Target Lock Breaker to achieve a goal of not being locked, but this also makes actual fighting a bit difficult, and it only fits on battleships. I have three of those modules because they are so useless they risk becoming collectors items.

I know what you were fighting for before. Now you are fighting for changes in the game that allows you to achieve that in the easiest way possible.

Society has rules indeed. Guess what: lots of people don't follow them, and a good part of the rest wouldn't if there weren't rules. People don't do that in real life, you can't expect them to do in a game.

Why are you blaming Bloodknight2 for playing as he does? Didn't you learn what happens when you fleet up with anyone who asks?

You don't want to take down VFK and take carebears to null, you want to change the way people play a game by force, even if it means changing the rules of the game.

people can paly it like they want, however they won't be winning, same thing in society people think they are smart scamming... they all endup in jail... they can go on like that, and they can keep begging to let them do it without punishment... it just won't happen

Bwa ha ha ha ha!

Really? You think financial crime is punished in real life?

Go work for an insurance company for a while and tell me that again, I dare you.

This is a MMO game Harry. There is no "winning". There are personal goals that people try to achieve. What are yours?

And no, sorry to burst your bubble, but "they all" don't end up in jail. Also, for every scammer there's an idiot to fall for their scam.

Confirming that I am utterly incapable of telling a game from reality, and that I awox people in real life. And so does everyone else who disagrees with Harry. We're all reprehensible humans beings for not kowtowing to Harry's sense of E-honor, and deep down we regret every decision we've ever made.

...

Or not. Maybe the game was setup with the intent of being all skullduggerous, and maybe some people enjoy roleplaying in that manner. And maybe, just maybe, a lot of people like that play EVE Online.

To be precise: in eve as IRL it's not honest ppl that fall for scams, but greedy people.

You can see it in the eve scams. The ones that do not want to pay a "fair" price are falling for one type of scam.

What about the poor honest industrials in null? Surely there should be mechanics set in place so that they don't have to deal with douche bags going after them? Or is that not how it works? Only to your advantage?

Maybe you should make a thread harry that solo players like you should have access to big bombs that destroy fleets and fleets with ease.. oh waitShocked

it actually is what happened in the maddoff scandal, he only scammed the superrich
