EVE General Discussion

1) You don't have to create another character to successfully AWOX anyone . . . once.
2) You act like killing people in 0.0 is the only thing to do in EVE Online.
3. You have to implant the reasonable suspicion that your action was taken by a member of another organization. There are a multitude of ways to do that in real life, whether by wearing the other organization's shirt and pants (and hat), by doing something that is incredibly beneficial to that other organization, or even just by doing an action that demonstrates knowledge only that other organization should know (like their ATM PIN number). There are fewer ways to do that in EVE.



You're begging the question. And, you shouldn't necessarily need to know everyone on a first name basis, but why shouldn't you need to have a general idea of who was where and what they were doing there? And, why shouldn't you have to carry some sort of identification? You want to a space empire, right? Well, that's a hell of a lot of bureaucracy. Should EVE do all that paperwork for you? Why?




We don't have uniforms. We have "standings", which are essentially an outside-of-game mechanic. There is no way for me to kill you and take your uniform, in game.



Firstly, you are basically saying that the little blue symbol isn't how groups maintain hegemony, no it's the little purple one.
Secondly, that little blue symbol is a standing order not to fire on the target. Who does that order come from, and why does EVE do the very considerate act of passing that order along instantaneously and invariably? **** . . . maybe, we should study how this is done, because it would sure help in the fight against al-Qaeda.

P.S. Why would a group like Pandemic Legion argue to make the game easier for others? Doesn't making it harder give you an ever-increasing advantage over less capable and resourceful players?

A well thought out and truly innovative idea.

No.

We can always "win" any game by stepping outside the prescribed boundaries. If I kick a soccer ball out of bounds, run it up the field, and then put it back into play right at the opponent's goal, that is clearly against the rules. If I score a goal after time has been called and no one else is on the field, it obviously doesn't count. There are many more rules and . . . they are important for determining what the game is.

I don't think you understand. I don't care if YOU paint a bullseye on my forehead. I care that EVE paints it on my forehead. See the difference? And, wouldn't you have to know what my goals were before declaring that I have failed at them?

^ The killboard tells him SWA has 1.14 million members, so he believes that. Imagine if the game didn't tell him who to shoot. He'd probably have ganked his own CEO by now. If I could actually steal his corp's uniform, I bet I could get him to pod HIMSELF.

Ah... your overview settings are terrible. My alliance-mates Always show as blue (or green or purple). Similarly, I have good standings set higher on the list than Outlaw, so people with good standings never show up as outlaw.

I'm saying the ability to change them, not what they currently are. Meaning "YOU DONT NEED COLORS TO TELL WHO IS FRIEND OR FOE". This is also for people who do not customize their overview or use multiple tabs (which I do). If this doesn't apply to you, kindly stay out of it. The point of me interjecting was based on HAVING to use specific things to recognize. Since you like to tell people to read, please do so. Not everyone needs only 1 alliance to function =)

As to MY settings, I use both, helps for things that do not require me to only fly with 1 alliance =P.

Thanks for the wiki, it's an old page but good for others to read.
