Those people get my report attention. The ones who call me disgusting slurs based on race and sexual preference. The folks who threaten to **** me and my family. Dat don't fly, and I don't care how mad you are about getting ganked.


No no, you don't understand. You hurt their feelings by causing them to lose at a videogame. Pretty sure there's precedent for that being literal torture.


So you report them then because it hurt your feelings?


You report people for breaking rules. If you report for personal feelings, you are quite stupid.

Whenever I gank a miner and s/he goes off on a tirade about how he is going to come to my house, **** my wife, kill my cats and burn my house down while I watch... yeah, that **** gets reported double quick.

A guy telling me "**** off" because I blew up his pixels? Makes me laugh.

New Eden isn't nice. It isn't friendly. It isn't very hospitiable. Good thing there are people here to shoot in the face.

Want to make New Eden a nice place? Try this out.

I'd say it counts. Chestbeating and all that aside, if you manage to disrupt a gank to the point that the gankee escapes, then I'd say you've pulled it off.

It's cool, good on ya', GF and see you next time o7.

No, it's just that no one cares if you just whore on CONCORD killmails.


I wish the killboards were representing the real amount of damage inflicted on a target, instead of giving out the full value of the kill, regardless of the % of damage one inflicted.

Counts as a CONCORD killmail whoring, sure. If some white knight can produce a KM with no CONCORD assistance I will call it PVP. Until then, you're just helping NPCs against their targets.

Keep trying, though. Someday you'll stop a gank.

If you think you've won, think again.

The CODE always wins.

Already stopped quite a few.

Lady Areola Fappington repect to you, on my side I often admire the organisation and tactics used by CODE and the Goons in their freighter ganks, it is impressive play.

When the going gets tough the Gankers get their CSM rep to change mechanics in their favour.

No prob, and you anti-ganker types can come up with some interesting tactics that need worked around at times. It's all good.

It's something we've all been a little guilty of, regardless of "side", and that's taking Eve a LITTLE too seriously. It's a game, it's all in fun. At the end of the game session, we're all Eve players. Sure we gripe, complain scheme explode, backstab etc in the Eve arena, but once we step out of that proverbial "ring", we need to leave that all behind and come together as a bunch of internet spaceship fanatics.

To use an analogy, it's like boxing or MMA. Sure, the people involved psyche themselves up, try to get in their opponents head, and then fight....but they aren't fighting because they hate one another. It's a contest, and when the contest is over, they shake hands and back each other up.

Not sure what you are talking about? Killmails show all damage done towards a target, in HP (not EHP), and shows the fractions for each participant as well. What is it you're missing?

Removed an off topic post, then reviewed the thread and see it's wildly off topic.

Ergo, closed.
