Crime & Punishment

I would send Logi support assuming you could make it happen when I am on, but Amar is too far from my AOO, sorry. If you get the fight closer to Hek and between 2:30 & 7 EVE time, let me know.

Do you even lift, brah?

My offer to help the OP was not one of "lets fleet up in lowsec" so I can "teach you". There are many, many things that should just be EXPLAINED to someone learning the ropes of PVP. Transversal. Explosion velocity. Signiture radius effects on weapons and tracking. MAKING SURE YOUR DAMAGE CONTROL IS ON, ect. Many, many more.

New players will be the lifeblood of this game. If we expect it to keep on trucking, than as a community (albeit a dysfunctional one), it is our job to ensure they enter EvE knowing the ropes, knowing the risks, and guide them to player interaction and not grinding rocks in a belt.

So yes, never trust anyone in EvE is a great mantra to live by, but we all need a mentor. ****, even the Sith trained recruits. (Even if to be killed by them later!)

Any advice you receive from myself or the others whom have posted here will be legit. It wont be given out in "duel me" format, but rather an explanation of game mechanics.

The one thing I don't like about this game is that PVP can be forced upon you without consent, I know its the driving motive for about 90% of the playerbase and the economy, and the whole purpose of the game. I dont think there is any game that has that fuction. I enjoy some pvp, I just typically dont like doing it until I am prepared, most games allow you to do PVP on your own timeframe. I am looking forward to some pvp lessons. I just wish that the thing i play the game for (Mining) wast taken away from me. My buddies and i have a phrase. 'Douchebaggery for the sake of Douchebaggery'. It seems some peope live off the pain and suffering of others. I can understand why they blew my freighter. I had a lot of cargo, it was a business decision. But the thing I cant comprehend is why people want to make your life a living hell and make the game a miserable place for you, just because they can do it.

I have had a few frig fights, and find them very entertaining. My blood rushes, its exhilerating. Never killed anyone though doing it. I was going to buy every T1 Frigate bpo and my corp was going to have a Frigate Fight Night. Each corp member would pick a frigate and I was going to make them 5. They fit it any way they want, but only T1 items, no meta 4 or T2. Then we were going to have some games, a battle royal, and a few team fights. But this wardec has cost us some money and set us back at least a week from being able to make this happen.

I was also going to make a death race. Set out some secure cargo containers as markers and fly around the system where you can shoot people on your way.

I used to PK when I played runescape. I LOVED pking, I had so many various pking accounts. That adrenaline rush when you fight someone is fun, my whole body starts shivering like its freezing even though it isnt. In runescape, when you die, you lose your stuff (except for 3 items) it was not a carebear pvp like WoW. I also used to play a game called Starport: Galactic Empires, a space mmo where you could build on planets and fight in space. I was one of the top 1v1 Duelests on my server. I am not afraid of pvp, I enjoy PvP. I am just not ready for EVE PvP.

Once I can get my mining operations running again and have my corp all settled due to the upset from the wardec I will send you a message and take you up on your offer.

What is a mighty derptron?

So check this out. The guy sends me a message and we start talking. Long story short, he pays me the money for my ship and implants and apologizes for podding me after we had agreed no podding. So I agree to fight him again. He is now providing the ships for me and we fight, I almost destroyed his loki in my Apoc!!! I ran out of cap because I forgot to get a cap booster. We are doing frigate fights, cruiser fights. I am having a lot of fun and he pays for my ships. I am actually making money off of this because I also get insurance money from ccp.

Sounds like you found a bored rich guy who is a little lonely. Learn as muchfrom it as you can, that is a truly unique opportunity.

Interesting. I know this man. I've fought with him.


I could do this job, but turning on a friend, that'll could cost you.

I no longer want him dead. Well I do, but it shall be by my own hands. We now fight each other on the nearly daily basis. He provides the isk for me to buy ships and fit them. I am having loads of fun but am extremely frustraded because every time i get close to killing him he has something that just stops me dead in the water. And the 1 time I was about to win my computer froze and i couldnt click my cap booster so i died.
I am however looking to take those pvp lesson sthat were offered. 1v1 fighting is proving to be quite a bit of fun and soon as I have the bpos I plan to start producing my own ships to throw into the fray because its fun. And I am learning the value of good fitting skills and why officer and deadspace loot is so valuable. Doing missions fitting was never a big deal, anything besides T2 was just icing on a cake, but in pvp 1-2 pg/cpu makes a huge difference. Today was short by .1 PG. and I had to change my fit completely as a result.

I am learning so much bashing my head against this wall and it is enjoyable but some structured teachings could be of great value.
