So is competing in the market, so is mining, making stuff cheaper then the next guy. Killing miners in high sec is the lowest form of so called pvp there is. They should call it for what it is....FAIL


Not our fault miners make it so easy.

Miners didnt make it easy, CCP did. It is your fault if you cant fight other players fitted and able to fight back.

They could have mined in a battleship. Yield was more important to them than survivability.


Says a person who can pvp in a barge... but damage & cost is more important than yield... amirite?

FTFY. Here's the part where you look dumb though because I occasionally fly industrial & barge PVP fleets for fun. Battle badgers best badgers.

.......Back on track, PvP for me is generally a social and fun activity. If both parties are looking for a fight then it's mutal fun. If it's a gank then it's only fun for me. (See above comment about SmilingVagrant).

Conversly it can be more fun doing something with a reward at the end if the activity carries risk - It means the reward is "earned". This is true of whatever activity (PvP or Plexing). So it can be argued that PvPers are enhancing the carebears experience.



I think your initial comment is wrong by the premise of your finishing statement to be honest. You hit the nail on the head with the latter comment.

The risk of getting ganked is one of the things which makes wormholes so rewarding. There is a constant threat from enemies unseen, this gives wormhole living/roaming an edge which simply isn't present for me in 0,0 anymore with local and etc.

That constant edge of the seat thing wether doing pve//pvp is what makes it so rewarding.

Hell some of the most fun I have had in this game was running away from gangs trying to kill me tricking them by various means.
