not whining at all, just pointing out the irony of one risk adverse player complaining about other people being risk adverseLol


I'M NOT A CHARACTER THAT EVER LOGS IN OTHER THAN THE FORUMS BECAUSE I HAVE A CATCHY NAME WHAT ABOUT THAT DO YOU NOT UNDERSTAND

CAPS are cool amirite?

I was hoping this would be a battle of wits, but i guess i won on walkover

So you are stupid...

I've seen that post before and how is that a "promise"? Stop acting like a little kid and crying 'you promised' at everything people say.


Get out. In the face of mounds of evidence to the contrary, you continue to blatantly display the ideal attributes of an EVE-Online scrub who spends his time running level 4s and mining ice. I'm not talking about Hilmar promising a damn game feature. I'm talking about him mentioning ever-so-not-very-subtly that they will be adjusting CONCORD mechanics once again in response to Goonswarm's suicide ganking.

Stupid is indeed an understatement in your case.

What evidence? Did you not used the word "promised"? He simply suggested that Concord should be looked into thats all.

No, caps mean you are sufficiently stupid to the point that shouting over the internet has become necessary.

CCP mostly sucks at their job, but Veritas is a pretty cool dude.

imo ccp just cut back on GM or at least there overtime and this one change allowed them to not investigate and just paste the standard 'sorry for you loss' crap they normally reply with.

So, give us a good explanation of why the rules were arbitrarily changed for the worse on October 10th. Because your credibility, or at least what little is left, is at stake here.

"for the worse" is also arbitrary - in case you hadn't realized.

I don't see the big problem either. What's the OP afraid of? The only people benefiting from the new rules are newb and mining corps, those who want to fight will still fight back and won't evade you.

Changed for the worse? Do you realise that it is still possible to pad your killboard with hisec fools by suicide ganking them in mission space or pulling aggro tricks in incursions?

This rule simply ensures that GMs are not faced with complex rules of when it's okay or not okay to do certain things in hisec. Note that this rule does not stop you using neutral reppers, neutral bumpers, neutral fleet boosters, neutral tracking links, neutral remote sensor boosters or neutral scouts. So basically, now all is fair in love and war.

I'll side with Ripard Teg on this one. Piebear tears are truly delicious.

And BTW, when CCP announced they were going to "fix" lag, they didn't mean they were taking lag for a trip to the vet. Sorry to disappoint you.

Since apparently this point is lost among all of you rejoicing that you are free to run your level 4 missions in peace (at least until a Goon comes along and ruins your day), let me reiterate it here (I'm iterating on something. How novel.)

IDGAF about not being able to kill highsec people per se. I care that this change was made specifically to benefit one particular group who have been named by Ripard Teg already and that CCP is playing favorites again.

Wardecs only matter in high sec.

Maybe you should, I dunno, live somewhere else.

jeez, this issue is going on in this thread as well ?
Take the hint and get over it - CCP does not appear to care about it.
Again more butthurt.
Bye bye thread, it's all been said before. Ad nauseum.
