Hey guess what, yes, i was once a new player to EVE, as all bitter vets once were, i get it completely.

Your a bad.

Also you offend me and i'm pretty sure a lot of people by insinuating that their IN GAME ROLE PLAY ACTIONS have any bearing on RL persona.

Just because i gank a LVL4 mission runner in HS doesn't mean i grab old lady's handbags because they are easy targets.

Eve is game which is based around the ability to do immoral things that you wouldn't do in RL because its a game based on being a space ship pirate!

I think its you who doesn't understand.

Eve is not about fairy tales Harry

Stop for 5 minutes and look at the Jita local chat. If you honestly believe that whoever fall for them doesn't deserve it, not only you don't understand the game, you are also not ready to play it.

You can't play a game and expect the other players to accept changes in the rule just because you're losing it. You won't stop people from using cookie cutter moves in chess and you won't be allowed to use your hands in soccer because you're bad with your feet. Accept that.

Exactly my point. If you don't like soccer, you go away and play your own game.

If you don't like EVE...

then it's fair game to get the old lady's space ship obviously, are you seriously asking that question?

as for your latest post about handball, that's why other more "friendly" MMO's have been invented, you are answering your own questions.

Harry, I believe what you are looking for is a high sec fleet :)

there, the big bad police come and shoot people if they shoot at you while in fleet.

However, as you know, and fully enjoy taking advantage of, the rules in low sec and null are a bit different :)

I choose highsec miners because the quality and quantity of their tears is superior. Basically, it's funnier to pick on them than almost anyone else.

This is because of their entitled mindset; they think they are entitled to complete safety in highsec (which of course they aren't) and as such they raise a much bigger fuss than other people. Which in turn increases my amusement.

I'm not sure how this thread got this far because I thought it was an obvious cave troll.. But assuming this is a real discussion..

Mister Harry, you seem to value honesty and want to fight those who opose it. How are you going to be honest when there isn't a window do be dishonest?
There can be no Good when there is no Bad.

The beauty of EVE is the open possibilities. It doesnt mean you got to take every path, but it is there for you to take.

If EVE were to catter to your presumed needs, where you represent the novice podpilots, then we should stop with looting, podding and so on. It could be seductive to some people in the short term, but in the long run we need to feel the possibilities, we need to throw ourselves in the random and ride the spiral to the end..

What if that goon is an old lady?
What if that goon is ill?
What if that goon is a pregnant woman?

In addition, you do not choose goons as your primary target, you choose stationary ships and industrials, safe in the knowledge that concord will not come and shoot you, and you can cloak back up and hide until the next easy target comes along

Meanwhile, you let the goons high sec alts continue doing stuff.....

Tell me again who is preying on the weak here?

probably right, however I wanted to tell some poeple in the game that dishonest behaviour is nothing cool, some seem to have a wrong understanding of it here.... the honest guys are the cool guys

I was sure those who don't want to believe that would cry me a thousand tears in this thread, I would say mission accomplished when looking at all the blocked commentators

it was like telling a kid: "hey if you don't behave, we won't let you play that game anymore"

Except nobody is crying, just telling you that what you're doing isn't make a damn bit of difference and there are much better ways of going about completing your goals. Those are the ones you're blocking.

Not that you can see this, you blocked me anyways. Big smile

Well being the king of highsec then he has no worries because attacking a fleet member in highsec will get your ass concorded.

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.


probably, so you doing gods work by scamming, interesting indeed

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

did it endup by the poor? if you scam for that reason, you get my vote, but if you scam for greed you won't


Oh, I never scammed.

But, should I have a truly innovative idea that does not involve spamming jita local, I'll sure give it a try. In-game.

The entitled mind set is only that of your own perception. To say every miner or Indy has this is more than a little presumptuous on your part. I do these so I can continue to pvp. This diversity prevents me from being crippled should they make changes ohhh like to let’s say running data and relic sites.

Those people that used this path to make isk are now scrambling to find another way to fund their play style.

Oh, so the guy who was screaming "It's HIGH sec!!!!" at me yesterday after I managed to take his pod as well, that was just my own perception?

It's very real. An attempt to deny the entitlement mindset of so many highsec denizens is merely attempted defense of an indefensible group of people.

What diversity? It's mining. Just that, no diversity, you are just a miner. And, the rest of us will continue to make money exploring like we always did, and the scrubs will still be the scrubs.
