EVE General Discussion

Someone with that name should know better than to be a pathetic troll.

However, as usual - if you think this is true, jump in a ship and autopilot from highsec to nullsec. I'm sure you'll be fine once you hit null.

PSA: Space is as safe as you make it. Nullsec people are just a hell of a lot better at it.

Or just stop being a troll. Either is ok.

If you think there is still a blue donut, you're a bit out of touch.

However, even if there were, then yes, nullsec players seem to be better at all aspects of the game.

For the most part, the more dangerous an area is perceived to be, the more careful people are likely to be in that area. Subsequently (with some exceptions) those that live in Null are safer because they are less complacent about their safety.

Far too many High sec dwellers simply refuse to take the most basic of precautions, subsequently they make pathetically easy targets for those that know how to play the game.

If you take a reasonable degree of personal responsibility for your own safety in high sec, you are damn near untouchable.

Complacency is the key. And it will always happen. People in High-Sec, especially noobs that don't understand the game will think they are in care bear land and free to AFK/do what they want. And then they get butt hurt when they can't.

Some parts of high sec are safer than others.
Some parts of Null are safer than others.
Some parts of low sec are safer than others.

Some parts of Null are safer than some parts of High...and so on.

Intel channels require (some) effort to maintain with up to date info, and they need to be monitored by the players who actually want to use them to remain "safe".
Bubbles require some effort to put up, and are largely useless on their own if there is no-one around to utilize them for defensive purposes.

So...is null sec inherently safer than High? Or is it that those who live and thrive in null are taking steps, both as individuals and groups to maintain as safe an operational area as possible?

If an individual in high sec spent the same amount of effort maintaining standings, anti-gank channels, fitting responsibly etc. would they not be just as safe?

I've lost ships in Null ( because I was PvP'ing mostly), and I've lost ships in High ( Because I was PvP'ing)...I've only ever lost one ship that I can remember when I wasn't looking for a fight, and that was in Null sec. (Not counting my first loss during the tutorial back before the new player experience actively discouraged ganking noobs in "learner" systems).

I may of lost a couple in Low sec when traveling, I honestly don't remember.

High sec is stupidly safe if you want it to be. Then again so is Null. Put in the required effort and pretty much everywhere in Eve is "safe". Whether or not the effort required is actually worth it though...that's a different argument.

Well then you should have no problem with the challenge.

Autopilot into catch, or into Syndicate from Orvolle (both provide direct access from highsec to nullsec which is the claim of this thread). If HS is more dangerous, then you should be perfectly safe once you're in null.

You either believe what you are saying and will do it, or you're full of ****.

Case in point./ Above I highlighted the words that indicate activities undertaken by PEOPLE... as opposed to high sec where people need do nothing beyond fitting correctly to be safe.

Real men play highsec at -10, nothing less safe than that.

Everywhere is safe, if you don't log in
