Actually no. It absolutely reflects the players character. The player decides to be a pirate, a soldier, a thief, a miner, w/e.

It doesn't happen by accident.

Once upon a time the Golem had a Raven hull and it looked good. Then it transformed into a plataduck. The end.

Correct: it reflects the character, not the player.

So you never played cops and robbers as a kid I take it?

You can try to separate your life and the characters. But in the end you created the player and you are playing the character.

Don't be ashamed, its only a game. Smile

I hope you'll eventually see what you're doing.

Right now, you're complaining on the forums about how bad people are bad people. It is a magnet. You've expressed an emotion, which to them, is a weakness. They're not normal, and you're trying to hold them to normal standards, and all it does is create an opening which the people who derive enjoyment from upsetting others utilize to try and further exacerbate the "weakness" you've exposed.

These people don't really care about what it is they're doing or saying. Which is their fault, but they don't care. All people are to them are potential sources for their own amusement. You're letting yourself be used by them through choosing to interact with them.

You stated your peace, and there are those of us who agree and understand. Normal people.

But normal people aren't motivated by the same things, we understand what it is you're doing and while we appreciate it, we know expressing agreement only makes us targets for their rage. They, being motivated by causing disruption to achieve some sense of impact in others lives since they're incapable of creating a positive impact, use this opportunity you've created to hopefully further destabilize you, just because.

Because they can. They have a severe disconnect with humanity and reality. They believe that if they can do something, they should. While the rest of us understand that just because you can, doesn't mean you should.

Anything you say will be used against you, regardless of their statements being grounded in reality or not, because their goal isn't any sort of meaningful accomplishment. Only one of simplicity.

Maybe your inability to separate reality from fantasy is your own problem?

To answer OP's question:

We do it because we can and without conflict this game would be boring and best way to create conflict is to shoot someone and even better is to do it with friends, so you can share the experience.

They have everything to do with each other.

There is no guarantee a character is going to be played the exact same way, irrespective to the player.

EVE isn't full of them exclusively. They just make far more noise for their sliver of the population.

The last bumper I encountered was 4 years ago when I was jetcan mining in my Osprey (back when it had a mining yield bonus). I lost a very small portion of ore as a result. No shots were fired.

The last scammer I encountered was several months ago. I had several BPC on the market, and he offered to buy them all for a slightly discounted rate. He made up a bogus contract, which I corrected him on, to which he responded with another bogus contract, which I also called him on, I then offered to make the contract myself, causing him to depart chat. This is at least the third time I've had the exact same thing happen. My loss: minor amount of contract broker fees.

I don't ever recall encountering a liar in EVE, or else the ones I've encountered are just very good liars, or my memory is getting really poor.

Yes, since you cannot separate the character in the fictional world from the person in the real world.

NPC corp suggesting lack of "courage in conviction",, check.
Overly bad spelling, (hopefully on purpose), and careless presentation, check
Female portrait, unlikely to actually be in the 4%, confused identity, check.
Over-inflated sense of self importance, claiming topic ownership, check
Frequent replies and hitting "refresh", attention seeking, check
Completely ignoring reasonable attempts at discussion, check

All signs point to male adolescent trying too hard, probably raging hormones around early puberty. I prescribe a healthy dose of "grow the **** up"...

There is no rule saying I cant. If you don't like it, I don't care. Seems to me its your problem.

If you are unable to see that the character is going to behave differently from the person who plays it, then that is your problem not mine. It seems you are the one projecting your own problems onto the game.
