Why is most of the EVE player base behaving like poorly?

OP, you should really edit the thread title.

It's silly and unnecessarily rude.

Also, with all the help you got notwithstanding the silly title, I'm sure you finally understood that EVE is full of wonderful people.

I hope you'll eventually become a good member of the community. For now, I don't like you so much.

I thought this topic was about something else. Smile

How? You're playing a PvP game, and you painted a target on yourself with your attitude. Hell I may just hunt you down myself and stripmine rocks out from under you just to see you cry about it.

The Second part i did not know (everyone has to use the gate part) and i just one of these things that should be in the tutorial.
Tutorials are for the basics or bare essentials, such as what an acceleration gate does for you. Knowing how it interacts with the space around it doesn't come under basics, it comes with experience and knowledge; some of which I just shared with you.

In the beginning there was nothing, which exploded.

Also please tell me exactly how i can get out of Interdiction bubble gate camps, i really would love to know, course that is currently number one reason for me to quit.

1) burn back to the gate.
2) fly an interceptor
3) fly a bubble free T3 cruiser
4) fit a cloak to what ever you are flying and learn to use it.
5) fly anything with a cov ops cloak
6) scout ahead with an alt in a free noob ship
7) bring friends
8) use intel gathering to know that the gate camp is there and don't jump through
9) stay in blue space
10) stay in high sec until you learn the game better.
11) cry moar. ounce for ounce your tears are worth more than gold on these forums.

Eve can be played alone and you can make a lot of money doing it etc etc.

However if you don't know how the game works, evade tactics, do and donts - you need to find a corp to help you learn those things first.

Contact me, ill give you access to some videos I have that can help you learn to evade that.

You are right, The original Topic was generalizing to much, updating.

EVE is Dark, Cold and open to misbehavior, just like a sandbox should be. EVE is Great, and leaves little outside of specific mechanical changes to wish for.

thought about it but he was clearly just frustrated,
less of an attitude issue more just feeling rusty and lashing out (we have all been there).

besides im a little pre-occupied with something Blink

Hear, hear!

Well done and well said!

Regarding bubbles, fit a covops cloak and an mwd.

After jumping through a gate, take your time to assess the situation. Your worst enemies are fast frigates/interceptors.

If they're moving, wait until they're farthest from you without dropping gate cloak.

Then, pick a celestial towards the nearest border of the bubble. Quickly align+cloak+activate mwd, then warp as soon as you're free.

You could have time to overheat your mwd but im not sure.

If there's no convenient celestial, just burn out of the bubble cloaked.

Won't always work, but often enough.

Never warp to a gate without dscanning it first. If it's out of dscan range, repeatedly warp/cancel warp until your cap is dry, then warp: you'll warp half way and be able to dscan.


Finally, get into pvp. You'll have fun and learn the bad guys' tricks firsthand.

The Carebearium link is well handy, I'll be using that myself.


It's a tool that I'm very surprised more people don't know about. I see it as very useful to bears like me and gankers alike...

The game put out advertisements saying you can 'be the villain'. It isn't being an *******, its just how the game was designed. And if gankers/awoxers can hide behind an alt in a starter corp, why shouldn't I use throwaway alts to keep them from finding me?

EVE is specifically designed so that not everyone gets a gold star for showing up. It's designed so that not everyone ends up the hero. That's one of the main draws to it. If you don't like that, then EVE isn't for you. It's specifically designed to be a cold, harsh reality. If CCP took that away and watered it down, they would go out of business. It does attract non-PvPers (like myself), but you have to enjoy the danger/thrill of possibly losing what you fly to play, and you have to want to push yourself to either kill the other person first, or be smarter than them to keep them from catching you in the first place. If you want to casually do the same end game raid for gold day in and day out, EVE is frankly not for you.

It's not meant to troll, Reason for me starting this thread is my great frustration due to Interdiction Sphears, People using my mission jumpgate don't help in the least.

oh.. well you know, those alliance guys down in sov space need to have the ability to protect their territory. You wanna sight see and play that fail mini-game explorer thing (loved it until the minigame revamp trash), but people gotta live down there full time, or want to. You want to nerf the thing that helps make nul work so you can play minigames. #casualgaming

As for missions, like was already said - there is no instancing here. I find it a good balance, I hate mini-games, but I really hate instancing more. Next thing you know, CCP would be adding instanced raids and pandering to WoW players here, as EVE really does begin to die.

Yes, EVE is boring, frustrating, unforgiving, full of assholes, neckbeards and g.i.r.l.s... and people that cant code properly. Most true to life mmo I've played in 20yrs of the genre. Not a flame, just a rationalization.

I'm in it for the money

If you don't like getting shot in the face, stop going to dangerous parts of space.

A lot has changed mechanically in eve in the last three years, you should probably think about contacting a newbie friendly Corp to help get you back into it.

You can do what you like here but so can we, including preventing you from doing what you want.
Engage on your own terms but do so despite the rest of us.
this is an open world PvP sandbox with very few rules
act accordingly


Im sorry i willl not leave the rookie system again, i promisse.

I played this game for at least 2 years before I ventured outside of high sec. Many players run right to low or null their first day in the game and do fine. To each his own as my grandmother would say. I'm not telling you that no new players should leave high sec for 2 years I'm just saying if you don't like getting blown up all the time then stay in high sec. If you go into low or null you know that the risks are. There is a learning curve to living outside high sec and the price tag of that learning curve is measured in lost ships.

So if you can't handle the heat stay out of the kitchen. Eve is not a theme park MMO. If you jumped into the ring with an MMA fighter and then complained that you got your butt kicked you'd sound like an idot. Complaining about loosing ships in low and null sec is not much different.
