Crime & Punishment

^ This, because, afterall, if a one man alt corp brought EUNI to it's knees...

Though, I'm not really bothered by anyone wanting to reward anyone else with ganking others alongside.

I mean that there's a lot of people in null/low/wormholes who would also love to see non-consensual pvp removed. I think it should not be removed anywhere, including high-sec.


There's been many good ideas proposed. Don't get me wrong, but I don't want to turn this thread into a feature request discussion. Go check the proper forum section for some of these ideas.


Maybe people shouldn't haul more than the ganking break-even point in one trip? Why should the lazy be coddled? I'm not going to say "don't fit those mods," but I am going to say that if you want the reward of faster ISK gain by using more powerful gear on your mission boat, being exposed to extra risk from ganks is a fair trade-off. How many T2-fit Ravens do you see ganked? Now compare that to the amount of deadspace-fit Tengus.

Honestly, I don't see the issue with ganking. If you don't want your hauler to be ganked, don't carry enough stuff in a single load to make it profitable for the gankers to gank it and/or don't use autopilot. If you don't want your mission boat to be ganked, don't fit enough expensive gear to make it profitable for the gankers to gank it and/or mission in more secluded areas. If you don't want your barge to be ganked, trade some mining capacity for a buffer. Now, for that very last one, I wouldn't be against boosting barge power grid so that miners have the option of using an 800mm plate or something. Maybe add a low slot as well.

Okay, so you seriously think mining requires skill?

Get a barge. Fit it with the best mining lasers you can find. Add as many mining mods as you can fit. Warp in on the asteroid in the belt. Lock up the asteroid. Activate all mods. Sit and wait for it to go poof, then someone to buy the ore/minerals.

(When I say skill, I'm not referring to skill points; I mean as in skill in playing the game.)

He forced the Uni CEO to start posting fake killmails to his own killboard to skew the results, as well as remove the campaign itself due to the embarrassment.

To be perfectly fair, when an opinion conflicts with a definition set by the authority, it ceases to become valid. Your opinion stands in stark contrast with CCP's definition of griefing, and with CCP's classification of involuntary ship losses. You're welcome to your opinion, of course. Though it's no more different in nature than having the opinion that "there" and "their" is essentially the same thing.

No opinion is invalid. It dose not matter who set the definition, as it can and sometimes dose change over time if enough people disagree with it. The player base is not the same as it was when this game started, or even a few years ago.
This is how/why changes happen.
I am not saying every change has been good, some are, some are not. Some should have happened years ago.
CCP is listening to every opinion, and so are those that make/post in thread's like this. Even you are listening to another's opinion.
They may not take every one seriously or try to dismiss them off, but they are being listened to.
Again changes start from an opinion.

So, I'll support Ship toasters movement.

I'll be supplying Tier 3 battle cruisers once the BPOs hit the market, for a price of course but at a lower rate and completely fitted w/ a small amount of faction ammo for your ganking pleasure.

ALPHA TORNADO! AWAY!

Oh, and also Talos blaster facerape.

It seems like this mass epidemic of rectal aneurysm caused by E-UNI's internal decisions and policies requires a dose of common sense as a treatment.

E-UNI is a carebear organisation dedicated to farming L4s and asteroid belts - Wrong - E-UNI has its own PVP division which is dedicated to providing training in PVP to anyone who wants it. 6 months or so ago E-UNI's policy on NPC nullsec was changed from NRDS to NBSI to encourage people to get nullsec experience while in E-UNI. Many of the founding members of my own corporation took advantage of that new policy quite a bit and developed a desire to move to nullsec full time and have fun - hence the inception of Ponywaffe.

E-UNI manipulates killboards to make themselves look better - So what - If you really look at obviously manipulated killmails which exist for the express purpose of the amusement of the CEO, and take them super super seriously, so what? It's not his problem. I mean really, is the water that contaminated around here that people really care that much about killboards and think this game is about killboard stats, and manipulation of them is tantamount to EVE Watergate or something? Wow.

E-UNI doesn't provide training in real PVP, it just blobs - Wrong - E-UNI's PVP training is only as good as what people volunteer to help provide, and is directly attributable to the encouragement people experience to just step up and take a fleet out. War targets to E-UNI tend not to provide good fights when the war is declared unilaterally by a 20 man corp or whatever. New FCs are still intimated by nullsec and afraid to roam it (which becomes a vicious circle because they never step up to do it), meaning lowsec fleets basically just stumble into a pirate or two and gank them. E-UNI's PVP training certainly isn't perfect by any means, but it'd be a lot better with people making an effort to assist than making bitter comments about the corp. E-UNI has a teacher induction program if you want to help out, and the current state of the leadership seems, to me, to be more open now to improving the state of PVP training within the corp and presenting new opportunities to its members.

I can certainly say, as a director of a nullsec corp, that the opportunities given to me to learn about the game by the policy change to NBSI in nullsec was very positive and helpful, and I think most if not all of our members who have come to us through E-UNI would say the same thing.

TL;DR, OP and other whiners are wrong and should look into the available routes to helping the corporation improve its training instead of being whiney and not really doing anything to help.

Poetic Stanziel is criticizing someone for making tired attacks. You heard that right folks.

FYP.

Go ahead, tell the guy he doesn't know what he's talking about...

Xolani - Don't try to talk sense to the Pathetic Stammerer.... We're all just E-Uni graduate care bears.....




Edit to add: He mad!
