You are bringing real life into a game.

There are only those rules the makers apply to the game.

There are only those common beliefs, (is "common beliefs" the right wording here ?)
that every player accepts by and for himself,
or those that get forced onto him ... by the makers.


Just because you believe things are "right",
doesn't mean that there needs to be a global consensus about ...
... what you believe is "right".

You could be "wrong", too.

You can't tell and don't know if it's a "regress". They could be living by the hard laws of nature,
instead of that sickening [whatever] people believe they have in "modern" societies.


Anyway, philosophy is offtopic.


The concept of "Live and Death" doesn't apply at all,
simply because we can not die.

There is no murder in EvE,
because nobody can die.

One can only commit suicide, or "his girlfriend deleted his characters".


Common-Sense is something that even in the real world doesn't get applied, (or used)
and in EvE we're still a bunch of humans sitting in front of a computer,
and aren't people from an imaginary future, living with beliefs you think these people "have" ...

... or "may have" ... but actually: "may or may not have".



LONG STORY SHORT:

You went totally offtopic.
Please stick to the topic at hand, or open another thread about it. :)


I only want to be able to legally shoot pods that have a GCC,
simply because they are criminals and because it makes sense, too.


You're right, I apologize for adding any depth or logic to this discussion. It's a video game, after all.

And no, I didn't go off-topic. I simply went deeper than you wanted to bother with. You simply read it as "TL;DR" and dismissed it, typical.


Compairing an immortal, extra legal, cybernetic pilot to an apple thief. That's depth and logic all right. The depth of a puddle and the logic of a spin doctor.

By the way, since we're already talking, do you want to buy a rifter? I've got the cheapest rifters in Metropolis. If you can find a cheaper rifter, buy it!

If you want to add hyperbole to the logic, yes. I'm not going to sit here, and parse your logic for you. If you don't understand, and can't understand metaphor and how it applies in comparative logic, that's simply your problem. Not mine.

Once again, you've been struck by "TL;DR". Critical Thinking failure.

Either way, it's being done. So. We'll see what the result of this is.

I understand it just fine. Your metaphor is **** and your comparison is dodgey if not downright dishonest. It isn't a Critical Thinking failure, its calling bullshit bullshit.

I couldn't agree more.
What's irritating me is the fact that you guys seem to care about bots.
To me, the whole ice interdiction seemed like a player driven unholy rage.
Besides the huge profit you were pulling off of this.

You seem to be a typical human being in our modern society.
You don't seem to think deeper than your own system-taught beliefs and THAT'S typical !

If you steal my apple although your live doesn't depend on it,
then i ******* guarantee you that i will break your hand for that.
If you need the apple because you need food, then JUST ASK FOR HELP AND YOU SHALL BE GIVEN !

Any future civilization will HOPEFULLY obey the hard laws of nature, so evolution can do what it does best.
Like it did for quite a long time already. It works. People just believe they are better.

It's not a *regress*. A *regress* is what we have today !

We have to live in this sick excuse of what we call society, with people having no reason, no self responsibility,
no clue about pain, opinions without any knowledge behind it and no idea how to handle their emotional well being
except via buying **** nobody really needs anyway. (and a few other points, too)

Now there are plenty of people who would pick out something that COULD be read between the lines,
just so they have some kind of response that will show what a bad/stupid/etc. kind of person i am ...

... go masturbate about your hypocrisy and open a new thread up about it when you're done.

nah, soundwave opened up a whole new venue of griefplay in his attempt to discourage mining bots from being ganked, i'm perfectly fine with that!

I never lost one in Amamake.

Why do you think that anyone who is not a goon is stupid? I see the word "pubbie" thrown around a lot too.


Once there was a country where people thought they were better than others simply by being in a certain group, and attached names for the "other" group that they considered inferior to them.

You'd think after the advent of gulags and gas chambers people would have fostered an aversion to such modes of thinking.

Meanwhile, if it's no problem, why are you here complaining?

There must be something more to this.

So, what you're saying is that you don't like the idea that if you blow up a defenseless ship, anyone in system can shoot your defenseless pod?

I don't know the exact mechanics but it's quite probable that if you shoot his pod he or his friends can come back legally in a sweet combat ship and wipe the belt clean

That only works if you assume the defender in question is dumber that a Goon....Lol

And while I admit to flying high, even i'm not spaced enough to fall for those tricks....
And I think your confused, this is not so much about protecting the miners, as it is about annoying Goons, that is the real fun in the game....Cool

Actually, it's not. I must know, it's my thread.
The goons had nothing to do with why i wanted this change to happen.

On the other hand, what you guys want to make of it, that's all yours for sure.

If you get the pod it should remove the concord response when they leave station in a ship. I mean, it was the other clone that committed the crime, right? Why should concord blast innocent clones? For all we know, someone put PCP in that clone's petri dish.

And yeah, standard combat aggression flags should apply. Shooting at a criminal allows them to shoot back in every other case, it should here as well.
