Sorry if this is covered elsewhere if so please refer it to me.

I would like to ask why there is no non pvp toggle for ships that are not pvp capable or for people that don't want to do pvp or areas designated for pvp. I have been killed several times in a mining ship and an exploration ship then told to stop playing miners and explorers and learn to pvp. I have banned this game in my home, game shop and meeting soon with other shops in area to implement the same. when someone flying a Battle ship brags about killing a lone miner this game is no longer fun or playable. The GM's ive talked to gave me the ships back but the problem still remains even though my ships was returned to me what happens to the person responsible for attacking me and what is to stop others from attacking miners trying to play the game. He's still bragging about killing a miner on his so called Kill board why is killing a miner on Kill boards to begin with? The problem is still there, there needs to be non pvp toggle flags to stop people who don't want to participate in PVP being forced into PVP or Designated PVP areas that people know there going into. SWTOR has a PVP toggle flag for PVP also World of Warcraft has a PVP system if there asked to participate in pvp through a request, why is there no PVP toggle flag for people in this game? I've been a loyal Subscriber to DDO since ALPHA testing and still a Subscriber to Everquest 1 and 2 and World of Warcraft. I love supporting games and recommend them to others in my area on game nites and weekends. This is an awesome game I am retired stay at home play for 16-20 hours at a time. I am also advising the parents in our area to not let kids in area play this game, when people can fly into any area and kill others for no reason that's wrong. there is about 26 people who will not subscribe to this game in my area now cause of this issue. Please let me know how this is going to be resolved.

This is a PVP game. If you can't take that, go back to hello kitty online or whereverit is you came from.

Frankly, you shouldn't be getting ships back from GMs. You should probably learn to fit the things instead of crying on the forums about losing them.

It will not be resolved to your satisfaction. Eve is a 12+ year old sandbox game that features full-time PvP at the core of its design. The New Pilot FAQ goes into detail, but the game is a single universe competitive sandbox game quite unlike the traditional MMO's that you are used to.

Honestly, if you can't handle losing ships to other players, this game is not for you. Ships are lost all the time and should be treated as expendable. You can make yourself pretty safe, especially in highsec, but other players are going to try to stop you or take your stuff from time-to-time. That is just how the game has been designed.

If you think you can learn to handle that, New Eden is quite the experience. If not, there is no shame is choosing a game that more suits your sensibilities. Regardless of what you choose, you should work harder to treat your fellow gamers with more respect than you have in the past. They are just other people playing a video game for fun, not punching bags to vent your rage at.

Well I have moved on from EVE and this game will not be played again in my home or game shop till PVP toggle is implemented. I have treated gamers with respect that is earned not given, CODE needs to be banned from this game for killing miners Like i told them then I cancelled 30 Subs for kids in my store that I paid for before the 30 days was up. Now CCP lost 31 customers counting me cause of this. I have made ships and fitted them and given them away to new players and got Bounties placed on me for it I asked a reasonable question. 4 days left on my sub and I will not support this game any longer. Like you said If I don't like it move on FYI I have moved on I only asked the DEV to enhance the game to bring back new players and what they are looking for instead of 5000 players online to a max of 26,000 there could be alot more players but I see my time is wasted asking Intelligent people for a response I guess when it gets down to less than 5000 players on at a time maybe someone will fix this game instead a rage about Its a PVP game if you don't like it quit. Best of luck with getting new palyers to stay.

It will not. Why would CCP do this after 12+ years? Because you feel entitled to play the game in way completely different from how it was designed? That's like showing up at a baseball game and demanding the umpire to turn the game into a homerun derby just because you do not like to take the field or be scored upon.

It is not going to happen.

Don't let the the door hit your bottom on the way out.

5. Trolling is prohibited.

Trolling is a defined as a post that is deliberately designed for the purpose of angering and insulting other players in an attempt to incite retaliation or an emotional response. Posts of this nature are disruptive, often abusive, and do not contribute to the sense of community that CCP promote.
