It always was, bru, if you knew where to look, and/or were willing to indulge in...aaahhh...certain "less savoury" practices with a few mates.

CCP are the ones trying to banjax that, and they can do a far better job of it, much more quickly than a bunch of lowest-common-denominator Internet/MMOG cliches like (insert dullsec powerbloc of your choice here.).

I don't think the nullsec players have to prove to us that they are in trouble by lashing out at high sec. We know it would be a cry for help, but it's their sandbox and they have to take care of it themselves.

Like we'd just up and set ~certain groups~ blue.

That'd just end up in people awoxing like mad and you know it.

That's the thing, though:

For them, it's not a sandbox, it's a semi-consensual battleground. And, like 1337-warzone PEEVEEPEE'ers all seem to get sooner or later, they're bored of same ****/different day. (I mean, there's no master-gear or even honour-points for all that structure grinding. For someone else.)

'Course, the current status-quo favours their comfortable lifestyle just a little too much, so they'll not upset that applecart despite any CAOD herf-blerf to the contrary, and instead try to upset ours.

And fail.

Just like they always fail. Because at real sandbox-gaming, they fail. ("Burn Jita" was more "fizzle with a few flare-ups." My manu/indi-alt does however, thank Teh Gewnieez(TM) for the 65+ free killmails! Dual SeBo'ed BlapTos, best BlapTos!))

Nullseccers are such perfect self-deluding hypocrites, but it's really quite comical to watch.

Hey we are just trying to make an honorable living off the drops of players instead of watching our wallets flash from magically respawning NPCs, you players have the power of nerfing our income by not being such juicy targets.

No, just ignore them.

Why?

Because they hate that.

Because they're boring.

And because **** them, that's why.

This will happen. Probably in the next year or less. Here is why.


If you look at todays influence map you will realize that its pretty much Goonswarm and Pets with some pockets of resistance. Well Ladies and Gentleman, Its about to become all blue from east to west, from north to south. At the current rate of expansion the southern pets will be pushing up to Solar space while the northern pets, with the 50 token GSF pilots in fleet, will push through to Geminate. This will leave just Goonswarm + pets in the north, Goonswarm Pet and PL meatshield TEST in the south and Solar in the east. Since TEST is still Blue to GoonSwarm Federation MK III this will create the "Sea of Blue" or "No targets left except in empire".

Lately TEST has been doing the Goon "MiniLuv' freighter ganks in the south. When asked about it, it was said that "empire pubbies sorta fight back" and "we really dont do much except blob a system to death and get no fights". The Ice interdiction, Hulkageddon and the Burn Jita events were to give Goon+Pets targets to shoot at. With the coming of the "Age of Blue" their efforts are going to be focused on Empire, where most of the player base lives.

Now you might be saying "Why would Goonswarm care about Empire when all they say is 'Empire is for pubbies, Null Sec is the only way to play EvE Online'", The reason is because they will not have anything to do in null sec except be carebears. Which they pretty much are. They are pretty much being forced to fight for Vale of the Silent even when most of Goonswarm is ratting in Deklien and laughing at their pets taking space and moons and not getting anything in return.

Since this is a "Sandbox" game, CCP will not do anything to limit the size of Blue Lists or numbers of people in alliances. WIth the war dec mechanics in place it is so expensive to war dec any of the bigger alliances you just end up being a sitting target. With the amount of people under the GoonSwarm umbrella they can Gank you all day long and you cant really do anything about it. Except to stay docked or not log in. Which is how the Goonswarm tactic works.

In closing,


Eve is dieing and will be a ghost universe in the near future.

If you guys feel that Goonswarm, Test etc. are a threat to you:

why don't you unite and fight them?

Don't be scared, because being afk is not a crime.

Because the last time they united and fought them, they got their barges buffed under the weight of all the whine.
