Missions & Complexes

It is Endeavour btw. The U is important as that letter was in the sailing ship to the space shuttle.

And while you despise my posting. You never went through with your incursion mothership busting because of my posts. Was it not for the lulz and watching Endeavour scream? Or do you truly fear the potential of a unified hisec to defeat you in the next election?

Well, looks like there might be a bit of favoritism and selective censorship happening. OK, I'll keep it simple even though my original reply directly pertained to the original post.

OP's question - Approve or disapprove and why?

Asking this is pointless. You've already made your decision which you intend to continue doing.

My answer - Neither approve or disapprove.

Why?

Forming a fleet to just kill the Mothership as soon as it spawns? - If that's what you wanna do, great. Actually your fleet is simply bypassing all the other sites and is only concerned with getting the prized loot drops asap. In other words, you're blitzing the incursions.

Forming a fake Logi Fleet and then not doing rep to facilitate the destruction of other players ships on purpose? - That sounds a lot like Discriminatory actions towards a specific group. In other words, unbiased griefing. Gratz to you for finding a legal loophole to gank ships in high sec without getting Concorded.

Posting this thread here asking for opinions about your actions instead of posting in 'General Discussion'? - Basically looks like a rant trying to incite a flame war when actually it's a gloat looking for fame and notoriety.

Really? The incursion community couldn't muster a few dozen PVP ships to group up and wardec us? It's not that they lack numbers, it's that they lack the will (or maybe the courage) to actually do it.



Because hiring mercenaries has worked so well for them in the past.

Hey, I am new round here, and op making much big talk about doing something ... And lots of more big talk by many after that.

I looking in threads and not find yet anything major happenings... Except talking.

Has op actually achieved anything big like first post suggesting, or is this one also much bleat moan hot air?

Ok, that sounds like somewhat a success against claims / plans. Well done. Whatever the motivation and claimed justifications I much prefer your approach ... Getting out and doing something ... Over the multi-channel anti-incursion bleat feast that seems to have become the norm.
Good luck. I guess the incursion runners will just rely on short attention spans once the wiser-heads take over and the tearful few reship. Wish I was around, and in hisec, to join all this. Mind you I'd prolly be one of the incursion runners y'all trying to gank.

It's funny how people say "EVE is a Sandbox, I should be able to play it however I want within the games mechanics!" in response to people playing EVE as a sandbox, doing whatever they want within the game mechanics.

wouldn't be a problem if the same players who are playing EvE as a sandbox now wouldn't have made 3 zillion whine-threads about people playing EvE as a Sandbox in the first place, lol. ;)

Dark Rising, as a corp, is a class act, and Mitch Taylor is one of the very very few folks running a corp who hasn't turned out to be a total asshat.

The problems are with the Alliances.

Most corps, even if headed by dillweeds, are decent into and of themselves.

It is the self righteous, sanctimonious, my-way-or-the-highway tinpot dictators that run the alliances that are the problem.

I, for one, and happier than hell that individual corpies have the chance to make some serious cake regardless of the Alliance head's effots to keep them starving and strung along.

That sad state of affairs, however, is that you have a few thousand mindless zombies centered around a clique who's entire purpose for being is to destroy every game they infest.

The fact that EvE has survived their near-continuous onslaught and infiltration is nothing less than a testimony to the reslience of the average eve pilot and the open sandbox nature of the game.

One simply chooses to not interact directly with them.

Oh, for certain, there is the butterfly effect and all, but at the end of the day there really isn;t all THAT much they can do to directy dictate an individual's playstyle.

In fact, it is that very LACK of granular control that maddens them most.

I have fun watching...............

Ok, i don't do incursions any more, too ez. so they don't really effect me directly. the indirect consequences seem to be the price of everything going up in eve as tons of people are making isk hand over fist without adding anything to the market, therefore causing inflation. point in case- the price of plexes has remained steady at approximately 350 mil isk for about 2 years, with some small variation, but now, the average price of a plex is nearly 500 mil isk. the idea is to get people into low and null sec space, but it doesn't matter how lucrative you make it. people will go where they feel safe, even if they make less, just to feel safe. low and null sec will remain nearly deserted until people can feel safe there. killing the motherships in high sec is a good thing for the economy of eve, but it won't send high sec bunnys flocking into low and null. they will just run level 4 missions again. yes, it is less lucrative, but they can feel safe doing them. the only way to get people out of high sec is to either make it far more dangerous, or have a way that they can feel safe outside high sec. if there were a way to .... lets say hire, for a large sum of isk, concord as a defense in low/null then you would get people out there. it dosn't have to be absolute protection, but it needs to work at least half the time. the other half perhaps the concord ship can be killed, or even betray the paying character if someone offers more isk to them........ just my 2 cents.....
