It was icecream.

Only the CFC guys want it changed because Mittens said so. Given you only have 49.5% of null, that's not most. Correct.

Reread that last line and tell me how that might relate to a highsec carebear. Go on. Put the carebear hat on and reread it. See anything?


I suspect that the obnoxiousness of your posts is intended.

But I thank you for being another individual contributing to my point.

"because mittens told us to"
Obvously not because we play in null and therefore KNOW.

You know, those silly things called mechanics.

Like the one that lets you get blown up if someone else choses to blow you up.

We're still waiting for those threads started to complain about needing 2 destroyers to blow up a mach.

What stops you from destroying my Skiff then? It's possible, you know.

I would laugh and ask if you're kidding, but i"m sure you're not.

You didn't get that it was a thread about CCP passively tanking miners becaue they couldn't be bothered to do it themselves and not about needing 2 destroyers to blow up a single mach?

Looked pretty obvious by it's body of content to me. Not to mention valid.

"hurr CCP buffed the mining ships when the miners could easily tank >1 destroyer by fitting a few mods, but because they can't possibly bear to reduce their yield, daddy CCP is there to soothe their worries" != "oh god I can't gank a mining ship with a single destroyer anymore my life is worthless :( :( :("

No, they do not.

Where in the hell would you even get, even remotely get, the idea that I was implying that, let alone saying it?

OP is just another control freak who wants to force his 'play style' on everyone else. He thinks his way of playing is how everyone should play and those who dont are hypocrites. I think CCP is doing a great job and hi sec /nulsec is great!!

Play the game, have fun

…which has nothing to do with being mechanically prevented from ganking a skiff.

So the question remains: where did even remotely get the idea that he was implying that, let alone saying it?

Oh, and are you going to provide that thread where people complain about having to use two destroyers?

Indeed. I owned a cat, a horse, 3 budgies and a dog once. I am therefore a vet. (<< pun intended)


OK. Let's cut the crap and keep this simple.

Hypothetical:

CCP, tomorrow morning, in their infinite wisdom, cascade to your forum whines like they so obviously did for carebears and give you 10,000 x 0.0 station slots with no escalating penalty for use. The cost to use is set by alliance.

Will that make you happy? Y/N
Would that stop you calling for highsec "fixes"? Y/N

I'm asking my 8-ball for if there's any point to your post. It's telling me to ask again later.
