12 pages, going on 13. Also, it isn't up to the players to stop anyone, it's up to CCP to change the rules to allow the victims to win.


How are the victims not capable of winning? The victims can choose to run, fight, or not play till the heat is off them. Making yourself hard to kill is a good way of doing this. Play in groups, have situational awareness, move around every day. The tools exist in game to defend yourself.

This is a game of risks. Anytime you undock your clone and ship are at risk. Also you **** off people willing to pay to have you violenced then that is your fault. I love tears as much as the next person but I also make sure that I don't give other parties the chance to harvest mine. My KB is terrible btw. I don't talk sh*t in local, whine about unfair fights, or pay ransoms.

Harassment in the game is a questionable mechanic, fighting is not. Someone bumps your freighter repeatedly to prevent it from warping, come back in a tornado and pop him then accept that concord is going to pop you. You might get screwed with less if you actually take action to stop them. Better yet don't play the goons game, stop using items that use technetium. Its the wallet that hurts the most.

Despite my posting prowess I really am terrible at this game

I just wanted to say that I fully support the "Burn Jita" event and that I am really proud of our glorious CSM chairman.
I even admire GSF for all the logistics and planning to pull of such a large scale event.
Just one question:
If I understood you right, the plan is to minimize financial losses by looting all the wrecks of freighters as well as concorded gankships.... But will the raging horde of rabid crying carebears that will inevitably undock in their rookie ships over and over again just to shoot down any wrecks and thus destroy the loot not be a huge risk for the whole operation?

I'd like to apologize for the poor quality of the post above and sincerely hope you didn't waste your time reading it. Yes, I do feel bad about it.

It comes off a bit disingenuous to single out 2 people when every non-goon stated the same thing after the fanfest panel. There were others that were calling for permanent bans. He claims this is because they made it political, but the response seems more political than their statements were.
As for the Death Squad, I think using neutral alts as part of the group is pretty ball-less. You want to put fear into people with a squad, but then you're going to hide behind neutral alts like you claim others do? The message seems to be that you're no better than any other high sec griefer wardec corp.
I'm sure this doesn't help my survivability, but this is a game. If something someone says either way on a forum gets your panties so twisted that you have to write a manifesto, I think 30 days away was probably not long enough.



You're right sweetie, it doesn't help the survival of you or anyone else in the Honda Accord :)


Personally, i'm not concerned about my survival. If you guys actually wardec us, it's all part of the game. My only problem was all this talk about Death Squad, while using neutral alts to scout. Come out as a force to be feared, or just don't bother, because it'll be no different than any other high sec wardec griefer corp.
In the end, if you guys run me from the game, so be it. I know it's a game, and if it's not fun, i find another game. You guys can tell stories about pubbie tears and nerdrage quitters, while i'll just be spending my time enjoying something else. You can decide who is actually the loser there.

With the increase in shiptoasting, the Report timer needs to be shortened.

Uhm… yes it is. It's a PvP-centric game, remember? They come after you so you go after them. Of course it's up to you to stop them from doing what they want — that's pretty much the central tenant of the game.

Quote:

So no change is needed, then. The rules already allow for that (except that they would of course no longer be victims at that point, so what you're asking for is essentially a paradox).

Hmmm, this reminded me of something. Big smile

Drakhen: [awakens in Medlab] Delenn?

Dr. Stephen Franklin: Take it easy. You're safe now.

Drakhen: No. None of us is safe anymore.
[faces Delenn]

Drakhen: The Goons are moving. They have made alliances with many in the Non-Aligned Corporations and urged them to go to war with their neighbors.

Delenn: No. Why would they go along with this?

Drakhen: They listened to the Goons out of fear, afraid that if they did not ally themselves with a greater force, they would be conquered by the rest. But... an alliance of defense has now grown into the dream... of conquest. They believe that as long as they are protected by the Goons, they cannot be defeated, and so they go to war with one another.

Delenn: Has CCP been informed?

Drakhen: CCP has said... "the problems of others are not our concern."




Ps: these quotes are coming from Babylon 5, one of the best, greatest ever televised SF series in human history. I changed a few words to match the current situation, but in no means anything of this is real. (just in case someone goes nuts with "CCP said... "Roll)

Hey Jade, can you refute the claims in your original quote with some facts?

Ahahahahaha. That's like GSP keeping his skills sharp by wrestling some third graders. Umad goons? Come at me bro. Military experts are calling the Death Squad a massive fail. Cya on the battlefield.


That would probably carry more weight if you were posting with your main....
