If I take a leave of my senses on any CSM election in the future, please feel free to save this post and quote it repeatedly. I started my CSM thread with the belief that CSM should be removed and having gone through the process, I am even more adamant that CSM is a waste of time, effort and money.

The way Fozzie is ignoring them, it is clear that they are just a publicity stunt group and a last resort for bandaid fixes / damage control.

You say that you didn't... but you did in essence say 'I didn't want that CSM seat anyways'.... just with more wordiness. P
Sometimes, ending with a cliché is for the best. Search your feelings.. you know it to be true.

Interesting.

Why do they oppose *all* mining in high sec? (as clearly noted above)

75% of the playerbase is in high sec with 5% in null and the above entities make up less far less than the 5%. What is this minority so angry about.

Is it that they only want to be miners themselves where they live?

"Carebears" think some game mechanics change is going to benefit them, turns out it creates a situation where things get worse. Exhumer buff leads to more miner ganking, introduction of anchor rigs leads to more bumping, freighter low slots leads to more empty freighter ganking, safeties and crimewatch leads to more creative 'can flipping' and such, and a much vaunted friendly fire button leads to much more creative awoxxing.

I've been saying it a lot lately, but it's still true, carebears don't understand it's not game mechanics that's their problem, it's their attitudes. I and people like me avoided all of the bad things they complain about by simply thinking about things and not flying stupid (proving that was all you need to do) and yet they just can't learn from that, they cling to the idea that CCP can make them safe.

Well done

Erm... I thought this was going to be a thread complimenting the corp-wrecker until I read those final words.

I was really impressed by the information provided, and the manner in which it was presented. There was no insult or malice.

Remember, everything you experience in the sandbox is a direct result of something you did, or failed to do. If you are not having fun, you have only yourself to blame.

What's lame about the actual email is that it "teaches" noobies to only form corps that demand full APIs. Yeah I know EVE is about healthy paranoia or something blah blah, but basic asset management would solve a lot of problems. Maybe not the problem of wardec intel but noobies can handle small fun corps w/o this sort of rapage happening to them. And the email makes it sound like it's pure inevitability- that is what I find a bit disgusting about it.

That mail is no different than a convo taking place after a fight stating:

"This is how I beat you."

"This is how you can counter it."

"These are the people that will take you under their wing and teach you."

This is considered proper etiquette when ganking a young player in a belt or dunking a newbro that starts a fight with you.
He took the time to explain what happened and the steps they can take to avoid it. That is more than you'll get out of most corp thieves/awoxers.

We should all be glad that there are people like the New Order Agents out there creating content for all this bored carebears who would otherwise quit. This my friends is what player retention is all about!

Do your part! Kill a newbro today or awox a industrial corp, for they are better of without that corp or mining ship anyway. Show them what EVE is all about, the sandbox and not just mining, the worst minigame in all of gaming.

Shouldn't have tried reading the whole thing. I could see from the OP it was not going to be palatable. What I did read of it was "FFS - facepalm" material.

I think EVE has always been about providing players enough rope to hang themselves with. Corp security being somewhat of an esoteric thing will open the door to awoxing, theft, and all kinds of nefarious things that add content to the game.

This is why the Awox switch is a bit of a puzzle. It is doubtful that the addition of this feature would correlate to higher player retention, or a large exodus of players from NPC Corps into PC Corps. If anything, not giving players enough rope to hang themselves also ends up removing content.

I sure hope you are right and that they are actually role playing. I have my doubts as that level of extremism is NOT playful. Nor does it match any role playing I have seen across many RPGs. Their treatise is very similar to the philosophies and practices of the Thrid Reich and ISIS - this bothers me a lot. I'm okay with getting ganked and having the pirate open the cockpit window and urinate on my frozen corpse, but these guys are far beyond self righteousness and well into the realm of extreme doctrines.

Thhe "red ink" thing is definitely harrassement if specific people are targeted for daring to disagree and/or not follow the treatise and/or get pissed if they are ganked via a nasty gram, far more than targets of opportunity invading their claimed space. Also, I don't usually say "gf" to someone who ganks a ship with no weapons and no way to fight back. "gf" is reserved for close contests that may have gone either way, that are a real challenge.

Really, they are saying that "you must play the way we dictate, or we will harass you". I'll bet this is not legal and yet CCP allows it. Hmm.
