*dodges onslaught of "EVE ain't safe nowheres*

You were just a victim of "content creation". You weren't creating content by playing. Nooooo. THEY were creating content by ganking you. It's how CCP welcomed the WoW refugees. CCP is the only one that did. All other games in the world just told them to learn this isn't WoW. But, ganking in the minds of CCP is some sort of genius on the fly.
One has to wonder. Not about gankers. We all know what they are, but CCP....then, I digress.

Sorry for your loss. You'll know better now. To all others. Don't come in here and speak about it! Free speech here means, any criticism of this infantile idiocy means you'll be accused of being a VICTIM! YES! It's true! In fact,
consider GD the grease trap of the internet....that little crook in your sink drain..

You'd be safer mining in nullsec OP. For a given value of "safe". You don't get ganked, ever, because you never ever mine with someone in system with you. Of course you'll die getting there, and you'll die getting your ore back. And you'll die flying to and from your mining system or going on shopping trips. But the actual mining - well, you'll be perfectly safe. Provided the rats don't get you...

@SnowFlower Crendraven

Looking on your killboard, i can't find the kill you are talking about. So i can't tell, how good/bad your fit was. But judging by your previous losses (i admit, they were some time ago, so maybe you learned a few things) i tend to believe, that mistakes were made.

- Fly tanked Procurers/Skiffs.
- Set known gankers to bad standing and always keep an eye on local list.
- Don't mine AFK.

Furthermore: Learn the basic game mechanis! This can save your a.. not just while mining, but in every other situation, too.
Your corpmate lost his ship, becasue he didn't activate the killright, before shooting the target.

Eve still is a PVP game and you should have an according mindset. Instead of rage-quitting after one lost ship, you should see every ship loss as a chance to learn from your mistakes and become better at the game.



Regards,
Damjan



(EDIT: I'm curious, how many gankers have watchlisted OP now? Hands up.... Big smile)

It ain't just you. I have yet to meet a 'carebear' (whether they pve or pvp) who understands that their behavior is what draws gankers (and scammers and afk cloakers and awoxxers) to therm like flies.

I PVE at will across New Eden and don't get F'd with, then I come to these forums and watch people cry about getting F'd with when they made themselves targets.

It's annoying as hell, I'm not working magic when i keep myself safe from 'bad guys' in EVE, i simply learned the game's mechanics (and observed the behaviors of people who would try to kill me) and keep from being a victim. If doing that is hard in a video game, how do these people survive in the real world at all?

It was said EVE MMO players are considered more intelligent then the rest. Well... I honestly believe 98% of EVE is no more than two steps away from 'You aint got no legs Lt Dan."

You damn near made me fall out of my chair laughing and I (or rather my ass) NEED(s)s that chair Big smile

But i agree it does feel that way sometimes. I remind myself often that the complainers (like the 'bad guys they complain about) are a tiny minority of the game, most players are good-ish players and take care of themselves well.

Still, That loud minority of "wahhh I'm a victim in a video game, CCP fix it for me" is F%^!@#$ annoying.

It was said by the game community who is biased toward itself. Every single MMO I played have it's playerbase bitching how other game's playerbase is **** and how the one they play is so much better because :reasons:.

It works in reverse too, some people think the EVE community and forums are 'horrible', but those people have probably never played a Call of Duty pick up session on XBox live with 12 year old misogynistic racists.

Of course it works both way. There are idiots in each community just like there are people who think themselves as the second coming everywhere and people who are actually above average in each camp too.

With such an obvious troll OP, you should have waited before posting this. Going to have to adjust your score accordingly from 3/10 to 0/10. Must try harder.

No, your rights end in optimal+2*falloff

so i was ganked in hi sec yesterday by 3 destroyers...even with all my drones trained to Adv.
l5 and a fleet t2 shield harmony boost plus all the fleets drones set to guard my ship...i lost the attack. My fleet boosters drones did'nt even respond to the attack but just before that they responded to some rats that came in. After i lost my ship i docked at the station and thats where the gankers went also, they sure enjoyed making fun in local so i set it up so anyone i my corp could kill them. Well that did'nt work either, as soon as my corp member undocked and seen them he locked on and fired but was destroyed by concord. He tried to dock when they started shooting but got the message ( docking not allowed because he agressed another pilot or something) i guess this game is set up to make no sense to me at all. i checked under my killrights and it was set so anyone in my corp could kill but it did'nt work and so another ship was lost. All i wanted to do was mine alittle in hisec but might be better off in lowsec for all the good it did me. anyone else feeling cheated lately ? Wish i could just once feel like my time and training was worth all the years invested in this game . FEELING RIPPED OFF...Cheers
