EVE General Discussion

I know, all the responses you all will give. I just thought I would like to post my perspective.

Eve is a good game (well it was). My story, I like to mine and manufacture stuff, you know the ammunition and rigs and other stuff that allows you to do missions and pvp.

I mine in high sec, salvage my little pirate kills and have led a generally happy life, until about 3 months ago. What happened then you ask, it appears that ganking miners in high sec is the new thing to do. I guess all the PvP, Wormholes, Null Sec is boring or something (don't know never been there).

Not a day goes by that someone either attempts to gank my ship or ganks it, I have pretty much given up trying to improve my fortunes, I can't even bother to log in anymore. I know what a sad piece of **** I am huh?

LULZ IT'S PVP DOOD, GTFO IF U DONT LIKE IT

Which si what I am doing, I amassed about 1.5 billion in net assets since I started playing (woooo, yeah you all have tons more than me).

I just wanted to post some feedback on the gameplay for future people that may join. 1) mining in it's current state is useless, sure you make make some isk, but overall you will get ganked and make no progress. 2) CCP does not enforce the rules of a negative security status (if someone is -10.0 they should be annihilated right away when entering empire space, instead they are allowed free reign - no punishment for killing others - I guess they make more money off these people).

Anyway a word of warning, increasing of gankage in high sec or even null sec killed mining, and pretty much killed any fun I had.

To those continuing have a good time, but off to the biomass processor for me. 1.5b going up in flames, CCP no more money from me, maybe if enough of us quit in protest you will fix something, but I doubt it.

no don't biomass


Can I have ur stuff


for safekeeping in case u decide to return

U know , you could try joinin a wormhole corp or nullbear corp and mine there , pretty sure its safer then high sec nowadays ... if not , then sorry to hear you leave

can i have your stuff though ?


I wish u good luck in your future gaming experiences

Good for you.
I understand your sentiment.
If this is your last account active, I suggest that instead pf bio-massing, simply stop paying the sub.
The message is the same to CCP, and you leave yourself an option for the future.

That seems highly unlikely. What you describe has been going on for at least half a decade.

I have to Ramona McCandless' questions to this: what are you doing when this happens? Where does it happen? What have you done to try to evade or mitigate it? If it happens that often, you must have managed to antagonise someone, consciously or not, and considering how much mining goes on in the game that doesn't attract nearly the same amount of attention, it really should be trivial for you to escape.

I specialize in killing miner gankers.

If you give me that hard earned isk that you put your blood sweat and tears into, I can assure you that it will be put to good use killing your enemies.

Sorry to see you go. Good luck to you in whatever you chose to do!

If you entitled pricks think that ganking is bad, try mining before the retribution expansion, where you mined in a bantam and jetcan mining/jetcan pirates were a thing. Hell even try mining BEFORE barges were a thing. Get in a rokh and try mining, I dare you.

You can pay for your retreiver hull in 6-10 full cargo holds depending on your fits. I remember when getting a retreiver to hold 10K was a VERY big deal.

Don't come back
HTFU
Give me your stuff. (notice how I didn't ask)

I think he's suggesting that NPCs should be capable of Pod-Kill-Murders


Imagine the posts if Rats could podkill

Well at least you could amass 1.5bil


Thats such a high amount of isks

Not a day goes by that people leave me alone to do whatever I want.

What are you doing, or not doing, to make yourself a constant target?

Are you mining AFK, or in high-population systems (people in local > number of belts)? Mouthing-off in local?
