Fixed for ya. No need to thank me.



Is hiding in a fleet 10 times the size of the other not cowardly?


Tell us how brave you are can flipping noobs

You are certainly welcome to start a thread on large fleets owning you. But this thread (the thread you started) is about you crying over facing consequences for your actions in hi sec.

But feel free to derail your own thread Blink.

I'm not saying it isn't, I hardly do that myself. I declare war on other high sec Pvp corporations. It's human nature to play, fight, claw, bite you're way to be the best and win a fight, does that not make everyone a coward?

If there was a "complete" removal of Non-Consenual High Sec PvP?

I expect about 2% of what would join, would leave. The lagg would be the only problem EVE would have.

Bottom line, everyone in eve is risk-adverse and a hypocrite.

Then why don't you wait and see what they say during the War Dec panel before you start freaking out?

Time to quit monitoring this thread, I got the info I needed. All the high sec Pvpers that enjoy small gang and solo Pvp are outnumbered 20:1 by that blob that already outnumbers us and the carebears providing their ships.

I wont be quitting, i'll just have to focus on suicide ganking instead.

wardec's just caused noobs to hide, now i'll be forced to just not warn them and gank em anyway

being able to fight every idiot that engages you is more pvp than being able to fight one miner. Don't call can-flipping "high sec pvp"

And don't ***** about a "probably" that has NO information yet.

Forums are always so dumb around fanfest -_-

There's an "if" in my post... plus I'm not talking about just can flipping, all of high sec pvp in general.

where the hell is this coming from? It's not in any of the dev blogs...

Although I wouldn't really care since if high sec PvP ended since I don't think I've done any of my PvP'ing in high sec...

It's not getting a boost as much as it is getting a few changes that will make the lives of outlaws slightly more difficult.

Low-sec will still be a numbers-and-capitals game as usual. The last time I went there, I had a guy in a faction cruiser tackle and shoot me with one gun at a station. I targeted him back, and sent a flight of medium armor bots in his direction. The drones weren't even halfway there when he popped the cyno. I highly doubt this kind of behavior will ever change.

Personally, I wish low-sec would get a nice boost to entice people to go there. I'd certainly like to go back. I just don't expect it to happen.

I wrote some true EVE stories! And no, they're not of the generic "my 0.0 alliance had lots of 0.0 fleets and took a lot of 0.0 space" sort. Check them out here:

I have attempted a grand total of 1 suicide ganks in my EVE career (and it failed, fwiw) and these new 'hi sec is safe' ideas are ****. As is this 'CONCORD is there to protect carebears' bullshit.

CONCORD is there to punish the guilty, not to protect the innocent.

Leave can-flipping and suicide ganking alone, ffs. A marginal (~10% maybe) boost to the tank stats of exhumers would be okay in the next rebalance cycle if too many of them are getting suicided.

Eh it doesnt involve blobs, but all the neutral alts and station games make war decs pretty gay most of the time.

Is it really pvp if you're just ganking non combat ships? I mean I dont call people that work in a slaughter house hunters... Nor baby seal clubbers.

It is indeed appalling that actions is to have consequences in high-sec!

People live there because they don't want to play Eve proper after all!!!

From the disjointed info I have seen, all they seem to be doing is adding a layer of protection for newbs (who else is target of flips?), rest is pretty much as is with a new coat of paint. The biggie in regards to high-sec "PvP" will be what they do with wardecs, rest is all bait/traps/ganks/griefing and has more in common with My Little Pony™ than Eve.
Sincerely hope they include contractsin the system they are planning so that defensive pacts can be set up between corporations and thus give anti-pirate/mercs a new market in which to peddle their wares.

dunno... I think there are better and more interesting fights to be had in low and null sec or at least thats the way it should be, not that I've had much experience of either, but it's just an observation. Besides it's called high sec for a reason and can flipping just seems a silly mechanic to initiate pvp. But it seems to me most of the complaints are because some players just want to pad their kill mail with cheap kills.
