Then don't. And don't care for what others do. Just keep playing your game.


I'd like to play a game where those near me are not as harmless as neutral NPCs are.

This is already happening so I don't think you really know EVE that well.


Largest amout I have seen was 70 or so and the fact they can do this is a sign EvE has already derailed into a path I don't like.

One can multi-box only so many clients in games where the risk is so small or predictable that he can deal with the environment with a copy-paste approach.

Then leave high-sec.

Checking Whitehound Alliance recent losses... now I understand why.... it all makes perfect sense now. Lost 2.5 bill to a Suicide.

My list just grows and grows.

Tell me, what does perfectly safe mean to you? In Tetris do blocks fall down. Is Tetris a safe game?

I am not the one crying here about High being to violent and should be made a none PVP theme park.

However since CCP said they aint doing it in another thread and your insistence that they will. I will wardec your alliance until they do make it a none pvp theme park.

I don't think my comment will stop anything because there isn't anything that needs stopping. CCP will always ensure that Eve will remain a true multiplayer game and not some fancy "let's all grind happily but not touch each other" crap like other MMOs.

I am not crying about high-sec. You are crying about me not crying over whatever you want me to cry about and what you think it is you did to me that makes people cry. You blew up my ship when I was not at the keyboard!! I didn't even notice it. And you are now the 4th or 5th posters who thinks this is somehow remarkable.

Now if you don't mind, we are discussing a possible future of EVE. If you had followed the thread from the start then you knew what I think about it. So stop with your off-topic posts and your petty attempts of getting tears. Find someone else.

Seems like a cry for attention to me.

I can't even understand whitehound anymore. The billions he's lost due to his failure to follow the Code must have rotted his mind

Good for you, but I don't put this much hope into CCP.

I then think that it doesn't matter much when high-sec turns into a theme park as long as low-sec and null-sec remains. I can actually see good in it, because it drives out the last PvPer and into low- and null-sec, while a theme park could make CCP more money.

I think it has to do with actual loss of equipment. Some of which is very valuable like the ship, it's modules, implants and even SP in those certain cases where the attackee forgot to upgrade their clone.


Eve isn't remotely unique in that you risk losing equipment and or character development time on death. Perhaps Eve is the most popular current MMO to do so. But in the history of the gaming industry, death penalties in some form have been common, and even welcomed by fans.

Players have multiple ways to reduce or minimize those risks and the penalty, and especially for new players who are not flying freighters or (practically) uninsurable T2 ships, the risks and penalties for highsec are extremely low.

Why should I leave a game I like enough to pay 5-6 yearly subs?

If it stinks so much for you to have an EvE that is so EvE... like then it's you who should leave it completely.

In which part of EVE are you right now? I am asking, because you complain about not having enough risks and the players around you being harmless.

If you cannot see low-sec and null-sec as the answer to your problem, then CCP will give you a push and no amount of complaints will change it! It will happen because of you, and you not finding the right challenges, and not because the subject says so.

I came into this thread expecting an actual theme park. You know, the one where you take the family and while you're walking around peacefully, a gang of body builder types in clown suits runs up, starts punching everyone in their faces, then run off, laughing manically with your cell phones and wallets.
