EVE General Discussion

I, too, take my own limited personal experiences and try to generate stereotypes about groups of people.

The average "carebear" (not to be confused with Carebears... you know.... the ones that actually are benevolent people, like Chribs) is an angry basement-dwelling incel neckbeard misogynist #Gamergate jerk that can't separate reality from fiction.
They're convinced that because you kill pixel-spaceships in a video game, that you're a murdering sociopath, IRL. Never you mind the fact that pirates in EVE are actually some of the most easygoing and polite people you'll ever meet in an MMO.

True, however this sort of thing vv i believe is what the op is talking about

I would also think it has to do with wealth. People getting scammed often have a lot of isk left. Many miners are close to bankruptcy because of the poor returns from non ISBoxer mining, and you may be forcing them to quit the game.

OP is trolling.

Thread should be locked for complete lack of original content and ranting asap.

Oh, and are you an alt of Kaarous?

They just want to mine, dude, leave them alone.

Thats because you did not engage brain or are trolling, however the difference is simple, most people who are scammed are taking a punt, they know the old adage that if it is too good to be true then it isn't true, but they go for it, so when they get caught they blame themselves for their own stupidity.

The miner however is not taking a punt as far as he is concerned, so therefore he sees the gank as unfair, he was not bothering anyone, therefore he is rather upset, he cannot blame himself for it, even though some should as they fit no tank and don't use Skiff's. Another factors is that they have a sense of fair play and feel that they don't deserve this, they also believe that hisec space should be policed better and do not like the fact that the deterrence of blowing up the ganking ship has no deterrence impact at all. Finally a fair number of the ganking players seem to be rather up themselves, so in a nutshell that is why they react rather badly.

But don't worry too much, there are less and less of these people playing Eve for you to get all upset over for their harsh words!

If you don't believe me, you can check my post history. I pulled a multi billion isk scam on the market forums several months ago. The scammed players took it very well, which is par for course on a wide variety of scams I have pulled.

That's not just a good thing, it's a GREAT thing.

The less people there are who doxx, spew death threats, and sling vile sexual insults when a normal game interaction takes place, the better. Such people have no place in this community, not now, not ever.

They can take their mental illness elsewhere.

Thread locked.
