When did CONCORD stop doing its job?

CONCORD used to provide consequences.

Shoot a player or their property and CONCORD kills you. Now, it appears that harassing people in highsec is just there to allow assholes to manipulate the aggro mechanics and try to force fights with easy targets.

Nice work, CCP.

Let me guess, someone shot your MTU. Those only give a suspect flag by design.

I'm going to build a big wall that will keep the Gallente out, and they're going to pay for it!

Most deployables are fair game to be shot at by other players, generating only a suspect flag.
CONCORD is not there to safeguard your skateboard or your lawnmower.

If you feel that is unfair then I almost feel pity on you, as a butthurt post in C&P over the loss of a MTU pretty much has ensured that your next couple of weeks are going to be interesting.

You just threw chum into the shark tank. Funny when you're not in it.

Come hell or high water, this sick world will know I was here.

I'm pretty sure it hasn't. But if it ever did this game would be WAY more interesting.

CCP should do a 1 day event where CONCORD goes on strike and not tell anyone. No forum announcements, no social media posts. Just put CONCORD in a box for one day and watch what happens. It would be the most interesting day in EVE since it launched.

CONCORD stopped doing their job the day they were hired.

Since day 1 of the game they have allowed NPC pirates to roam freely across high security space, murdering innocent capsuleers at will.

When the Sanshas invaded, declaring war directly on CONCORD - did Concord mobilize their massive fleets (we've all seen them cluttering up random gates for no apparent reason - we *know* they have the ships)? NO THEY DID NOT. Instead they whined endlessly and sent hordes of capsuleers out to fight and die in their place.

They claim they "can't handle" these threats, so they need our "help" to protect high sec against these threats.... But we've all seen CONCORD in action. Their lowliest frigate is equipped with advanced equipment that makes it more than a match for even the largest incursion fleet ever fielded by capsuleers. And they have THOUSANDS of ships on standby at any given moment - with the ability to create more AT WILL whenever they need them.

Yet still, even when there is already a massive CONCORD fleet in an asteroid belt, they will just sit and watch "helplessly" as an innocent venture falls pray to a lone NPC pirate. Claiming that they "can't help" - even though all it would take is the press of a single button to do so.



The question, therefore, is not "When did CONCORD stop doing its job?"

The real question is: "Will CONCORD ever bother to *start* doing its job?"

The dead swans lay in the stagnant pool. They lay. They rotted. They turned Around occasionally. Bits of flesh dropped off them from Time to time. And sank into the pool's mire. They also smelt a great deal.

True...but he created a thread to cry about a Mobile Tractor Unit with only 70k isk of garbage inside. It was killed by a vexor, and he did not choose to defend or even scoop/save it...

I'm going to go out on a limb and say the OP isn't going to win any awards for bravery.

Stupidity maybe, but not bravery.

Nice work, CCP.

According to your profile, my good man, you've been playing EVE since July 2008, and it's certainly possible you've been around in some other incarnation prior to that.

How, sir, in all that time have you not taken the time to learn the game mechanics? I am almost astonished that you were seemingly unaware that destroying deployables was not subject to retaliation by CONCORD.

I am definitely astonished that you would gripe about it here. Of all places, you chose the forum that is the de facto tear harvesting forum for the very sorts of people you would like CONCORD to kill.
