Exactly this,

We will frequently **** with nubies to see how they take it.
assuming they don't fly off the handle and start spewing vitriol, wishing ill upon ourselvs and/or our loved ones and our cat ,
They're likely going to find that we will be happy to show them where they went wrong, what they could have done better ect ect...

Iv personally spent hours chatting to nubies who found themselves on my killboard, linking them to resources like the many third party websites (o7 chribba ) iv reimbursed ships, given isk and even recruited a couple.

In short, I play this game to hunt others and to be hunted in turn, I see no reason for excluding the newbros from the fun.

Shooting everyone you can is a central theme of this game. One does not need reasons, and if I was to take the time to confirm your newbro status before shooting you then you could just as easily take advantage of my hesitation to shoot me.

If you aren't just here to troll us, I'd suggest you join E-Uni and learn to play the game, because crying doesn't solve anything.

Yah see, just 'cause you wuz a swingin' d!ck in your last game dunnat mean yer packin' in this one. Noobs that get popped by vets are not in their noob area. Usually they're the hotshots who own games at the point of download and everyone else hasn't realized that yet. Now you know. You aren't the first, and you won't be the last. Computer games
are filled with hotshots like yourself. Go figure.

Noobs are in the noob zone for a reason. Tough guy gamers who scoff at this and race to the badass regions
are soon handed their wreckage.

We must accommodate the idiocracy.

and you see that iam a noob just exploring the univurse.

No amount of waiting or checking or talking, will ever demonstrate whether you are an actual noob.

I can create a new account today, and type in local "HEY IM A NEW PLAYER NEVER PLAYED EVE BEFORE" and it would be a complete lie. There is absolutely no way to see if you truly are a new player, or just a new alt of a very very old player.

Id suggest joining a new player friendly corp, like Brave Newbies or Eve UNI or RvB, and have them teach you the ropes of Eve online. Best player experience possible, in my opinion.

Sorry Delta, but you fail to see a lot of logic here:


A. New character =/= New player, you might aswel be an alt character that is scouting for an enemy fleet / cyno-alt for hotdroppers etc.

B. Outside the Rookie systems, you and anybody else are following the same rules, so there was no violation of what so ever. You got shot, in a PvP game, HTFU (not meant as an offense, but as a "warning" that it will happen even more).

Iam not whining only curious whay and hopefully get som god advice what to do Smile


The simplest answer:


* Cause we can.



And, in EVE, that is enough reason to do something. After all, it is a sandbox.

Never judge anybody on their spelling / grammar.

Hell, if I ask you to type in Dutch, I will be laughing non-stop cause of all the errors you make (aka, not everybody is native English speaking nor all countries will teach any form of decent English lessons).

Just a head's up this is not a warm fluffy game. If you go into low or null sec you will be shot at by pretty much anyone that sees you. Noob or vet no one cares. This game is harsh and brutal, you either are ok with that or you look for another game.

The Devs pride themselves on the cruel nature of the game see this CCP falcon post or the HTFU video to get an idea of how the Devs feel about the harshness of Eve.

Getting smashed on by vets is a rite of passage in EVE. Take it all in stride and try to learn from all of it.

It builds character. :)

Really?

I remember newbie systems being virtual "graveyards" back in 2009. Vets would steal from newbie jetcans and laugh as the newbies shot at them helplessly. One particular time I undocked and saw this little "green frigate" with these white "x"s flying all around it... it was blinky red for some reason and everyone was trying to kill it. And everyone was dying within seconds of those "x"s swarming them. I thought it was AWESOME (even though I died too).

That's when I learned about drones. That's when I made using drones to the best of my abilities as a goal. Twisted


NOTE: to my knowledge... the Vets would often reimburse any newbie they popped.

How did you Veterans start?

His spelling mistakes are not in keeping with someone who does not know the language well IMHO. In fact they suggest much more either deliberate mis-spelling or at least a native english speaker who is UNBELIEVABLY bad at writing. No biggy, but i felt like shooting him by half way through his first post.
