Where do you draw the line?

My question for you is what code of conduct or rules do you obey in-game that are not required by the game mechanics? When I started Eve, I tried to be nice to people the way I am in real life... helping people... basically a big boy scout. These days... I will still help a newbie, but I find myself losing concern for my public image as a good guy.

I used to be like you.

One day the penny dropped that it was holding me back.

Now I do what I please if I'm sure that I'll get away with it.

A recovering btter vet,  with a fresh toon and a determination to like everything that CCP does to Eve...

Don't take me too seriously though, I like to tease a bit on the forums, but that's only because I love you...

Hmm... In a sandbox... Not required by game mechanics.... Obey conduct not required by game mechanics... Sandbox gameplay... my head is spinning.

NBSI ... 'nuff said.

One of the bitter points of a good bittervet is the realisation that all those SP don't really do much, and that the newbie is having much more fun with what little he has. - Tippia

When the make it Free to play game. I will quit eve. Or if the remove sp or reskill your sp points. If this happens i`m gone and ask for refund. Because working my ass of to get that sp points what i have now. Don`t want to talk how many real money i spend in this ridicules game. Let alone the real time i spend on this game.

Even my wife will kick me in the butt if i leave eve for lesser things.

They don't need to make it a Free-to-Play game. Whyever would they do that?

This speaks volumes about you.
Some people do the right thing because they fear punishment or shame. Their sense of worth and even self is derived from external sources.
Other people, about 90% of the population, do the right thing because it is the right thing.
I've found that roleplaying is merely a posture that players adopt, under pressure we all revert to type.
Eve has taught me that i'm a helpful, trustworthy person with little time for cruelty and a tendency to wreck things when faced with any boredom.
Boredom is the line.







Goggles. Making me look good. Making you look good.

So, PVP seems like something I never want to do, mining is boring, and I have not yet decided whether or not to buy another month. Possibly not.

When the remaster of homeworld comes out, I think I am out of here, because while the game is pretty, it only has two modes: repetitive and boring or exciting and over in ten seconds with someone PMing me that I am a noob ******* in Russian.

He made two posts in the last 24h ...
... and two posts before that, five months ago.

Apparently, for some reason, instead of leaving ...
... he thinks it's necessary to tell us he is a good guy.


Thank you, Mr. superior.

How much work is it to gain SP? I don't know what kind of job you have but my job is a lot harder than getting SP in EvE.

To gain sp is hard yes its hard. You know paying the bills every month is hard in my country perhaps in your country is better! So gaining sp points in my world is hard. But i guess you people think everyone is rich right? Or can easy pay there bills.

I guess you like troll other people to in real life because you`re thinking that the world is only US only? right?
