Any particular reason people are so hostile in this game?

My experience is limited in this game since I only started playing recently but in my short time I've had many instances of people going out of their way to be rude or harass new players.


Head into NPC 0.0.

Reading local there would make an Australian truck driver blush.

Rude in this game is all relative.

OP, fit 10 t1 pvp frigs. Come to lowsec. Engage people (preferably >6 month old toons). Die (probably).

Each time you die, immediately* post 'gf' in local. Then convo the guy that killed you and say:

o/
gf
I'm new to this and trying to learn, could you please give me some advice?

Warm your heart with 10 nice conversations, guaranteed (if not I'll buy you another 10 frigs).

*Actually, you may want to get your pod out first, else you won't be able to post in local :)

Make space glamorous! Is EVE dying or not? Ask the EVE-O Death-o-meter!

I just "block" them. And I certainly don't play with them.

No loss.

"Block" pigs. Refuse to fly with them.

How to disarm jerks: agree with them, compliment them, be polite to them, and use proper diction (not slang, etc.). Using self-deprecating humour also works well.

When their ego is satiated, then you can ask for advice and how to improve.


Or gank the crap out of them while laughing.
