EVE General Discussion

Sometimes taking a lttle break and getting a breath of fresh air helps.

Redirected agression, the stress from suffering an agression and not having the ability to return it in the same way as has been inflicted causes that the stress is relieved in a different form of agression.

It's a well known human behavior, and the notorious part with it is that it is a reaction to perceived agression, thus it doesn't happens when there is no perception of agression. Perception is the key word.

This is why the victims call names to gankers and gankers pretend that being called names it's an inappropiate behavior rather than just pushing back after being pushed.

A blows B's ships knowing that B can't do anything about it, then B calls names to A knowing that there's nothing A can do about it.

Then the score is settled and each goes back to his business. It's just a game after all, if a player can't take some namecalling after ganking someone, then maybe he should stop messing with people.

This is a term and concept applied in veterinary science, not to humans.

As you pointed out, the resultant frustration and aggression is unleashed on a subject that is incapable of defense and irresponsible for causing it.

You are badly mixing apples and oranges.

Right. Dragging you wayward lot back to the topic.....

Can someone please define 'a thing', as in 'Are mining permits actually a thing?'.

We need to be clear about the OP's use of the term if we're to answer the question, so if HadleysHope would do us the courtesy of returning to the discussion, I'd welcome an opportunity to quiz him about his understanding of the term.

In any case, perhaps we could hear some definitions from the floor?

The answer to the question posed in the thread title will of course be either 'yes' or something vague and essentially unconvincing. But we need to get our definitions straight first.

What is 'a thing'?

This thread has gone no where but the trash.

Closed.
