Player Features and Ideas Discussion

Instead of focusing on pointing out the flaws in the "style of argument", why don't you actually examine the argument itself? You might learn something.

There's no tag team. We all have lives. I've been out for a few hours being busy with mine. Whether we have lives or not is irrelevant. You have yet to refute ANY arguments AT ALL and have done nothing but poke holes in the ones that refute you.

Quoted because this is probably the most succinct argument against no-local that doesn't even need to delve into the minutia and mechanics.

Literally not a single person has said this at all. The fact that you are a slavering simp and keep linking to disparate points has everything to do with your incapability of reading beyond the third grade level and nothing to do with the arguments being made.

Let me break it down for you.

Conflict is enabled by local: This is a fleet finding fleet function, the primary tool used by FC's and scouts to be aware of incursions into your space, or find the people you are fighting against. This has literally nothing to do with the second point at all except that both occur in the spaceship game eve online. The reason this is important in null and not wormhole space? Force projection and fleet size. I can reinforce an entire region in about two hours with supercaps and a large subcap fleet backing them up. Without local they would become virtually impossible to pin down if they had enough cyno alts spread around.

No local forces everyone to highsec: This is related almost entirely to isk generation, aka ratting/PI/what little industry actually takes place in null, aka actually "Living" in the space as opposed to just using it as a battleground that you return to when it is threatened. So instead of seeing a "Vibrant nullsec" full of people who live in it, you will see situations which if you were the expert on nullsec life that you seem to think you are you would know already exist. People who live almost entirely in highsec but only come back to nullsec when their infrastructure there is harmed.

And we get to the third point

Therefore all conflict is in highsec: no, because the two prior points are only linked in that they involve the spaceship video game eve online and local mechanics. What little population you see in nullsec already would simply move their daily activities to highsec and come back to null for fights. How do we know this would happen? Because it already does happen, especially in alliances with crappy hard to use space. Even in good space like ours roughly half to a quarter of our membership is engaged in risk free PVE in highsec.

If you tried to pop our towers we'd still come back to defend them, and we'd still keep our PVP ships in VFK.

It's not my fault you can't realize that there may actually be disparate issues with removing local, both quality of life wise and conflict wise.

Anything can be taken out of context when only half of it is quoted. It's actually sarcasm. Tongue in cheek. A play on words. The first two parts have been spoken by Darth and ohhh whats his face? Some one from earlier today. The conflict is actually referring to the nerd rage and temper tantrums that will ensue. There would also be more conflict on the market as well.
I am sure this will be butchered, misquoted, and taken completely out of contexts as well. That is what ignorant people do when they feel they could possibly be wrong. Like small children. Either way, I'm out guys. Good luck arguing amongst yourselves, playing children's card games or whatever you goons do during your free time.

Maybe you can just keep arguing against the arguments you wished I would make and I can keep making fun of you. This seems like a workable plan and goes along well with me being a goon.

You are fun, you should stay. I haven't talked at anyone this dumb since the fight with -A- in delve. Note use of the word at because i'm pretty sure you aren't grokking anything I'm saying beyond the fact that I'm being a meaniehead :(

EDIT: are you a furry? Because the last time I saw someone misuse that many argumentative fallacies it was a furry doing it, and they seem to do it a lot. Well that and yiffing.

Lol

It can happen: you may reach the point where, in spite of expertly using all of your best tactics, you’re suddenly struck by the discomfiting notion that maybe your opponents, uh, have a point.

This doesn’t feel very good for any Privileged Person®. It’s highly uncomfortable for a start-off, the sensation you may be wrong about something. But even worse, it may mean you have to endure the humiliation of admitting that!!

But never fear, for all is not lost! You can still worm your way out of this one!

Simply say:

“It was all a social experiment!” "You took that out of context!" Or, my personal favourite, "You're too ignorant!" < this last one is especially useful when you have a block feature, like on Facebook - deliver it, give your opponent enough time to read it, then block them and they can't respond!!!!

This makes it okay, you see! Not only does it imply to your opponents that you’re really not the ignorant, obnoxious newb you might be beginning to realise you are, you successfully communicate to them that you are that insensitive, that arrogant and that much of a douchebag you would take issues they know more about than you that affect everyone in the game and treat them as nothing more than a theoretical discussion for your own detached amusement!

In this way you cover your arse whilst affirming your privilege!

Not to mention how many posts you've half-quoted yourself but completely missed out the important parts.

Or ever having to make a single valid point on the actual subject matter.

I'm still trying to find a niche in the game - there's so much on offer, I very nearly squee every day with how much I love this game. But I just can't find a "place" yet. Not to worry, I shall.
