Oh yeah. Forgot to add:
8) Forum Trolls. Not really a feature of the Eve client, but none-the-less annoying.


I don't think he was going for the obvious troll opportunity presented by your previous butthurt post where you detail how CCP needs to redesign the game to make it more fun for you. More likely he was complaining about people like yourself who expect devs making a game for tens of thousands to hand craft it specifically for them so that it does everything they want, the way they want it to, when they want it to. And when that doesn't happen they go on the forums and make pointless threads, like this one, about how things that have been in the game since day one, (gate camping, using an alt scout etc) haven't been changed to suit them yet.

Still the Scotsman Logical Fallacy. Hint, the use of "Real" in your statement, just before redefining the word, is a sure give away that it is the Scotsman Logical Fallacy.

Again, you may want to at least attempt to disguise your use of logical fallacy in failed attempts to make a point. Like, maybe, NOT using "real" before a word, in an attempt to magically alter the definition of the word.

Here is an example. A player whose KB stats are just blobbing PVE ships, gets negative reputation as a good PvPer to me.


The word "real" is a legitimate word, such as, you are a real tool. Which we are all seeing is true. LOL.

Edit: I agree that risk is good, but removing risk from the pvpers and transferring it all to the pve'ers just sounds like you want easy kills and don't want to work very hard or risk much yourself.



When you quoted "Real is a legitimate word, such as , you are a real tool" I think you ment to quote my statement where i quoted you talking about "real pvp" But you call me to tool? You crack me up andy you really do. Please go edit your post quick like you did before so you can avoid looking like more of a fool infront of everyone.

But lets get back on topic

So your saying that if a "solo pve" ship is in a belt or somewhere in lowsec/null sec i should just leave him alone becuase he is a easy kill?

It is work to find a solo or in your words "easy kill" For the most part people in eve are not dumb and they do check dscan and a eye on local. So for me being -10 it is hard to find a target before he warps out to a station. And to be honest i would not have it any other way...that makes the hunt that much more fun.

Who said it had to be a second account? I wrote that "condescending post" and I certainly didn't, and I certainly don't have one either, I have something better, it's called friends.

Highsec is owned by players now. Systems 0.5-1.0 are New Order Territory. All miners and other residents of Highsec must obey The Code. Mining without a permit is dangerous and harmful to the EVE community. See www.MinerBumping.com

A few weeks ago I was bored and thought about doing something different..So I decided to go have a look at LS just to see what all the fuss was about. Off I went to the nearest system I could find, it was a 0.4 system, not exactly hardcore null sec but it was scary enough just with the rating. I went in a cheap ship and warped to the gate and through it...then woke up in my medical station..........As soon as I had poked my nose through the gate I got locked, killed and podded, for absolutely no reason other than I had gone through the gate..And you seriously expect me to ask friends to risk the same fate? If you do then you're the worst kind of friend or corp mate there is.

They usually are, and you don't need to be a "carebear" to know that!

tbh you have to be EXTREMELY unlucky to get podded in lowsec, and since you have gate invul when you jump through you can easily tell if you are about to be in brown trouser territory when your invul is over.

So just prepare for it, select a moon, get ready to spam that warp to button. your pod should be gone before even an insta locker can get you due to the way the server operates.

I'd agree with:

Andy Landen wrote:
1) Cyno's - many players gang up against single players. Instant movement of large super capital blobs across vast distances..
3) Bumping - Many players gang up against single players. Doesn't even do damage.
6) POS POS's - What a pain. Single players cannot control these independent of the corp (many players).


Titan bridges are definately bad. I'd argue its the main reason for the blue donut. Who wants or can be bothered to deal with engagements of that magnitude, knowing they're just one click away from a massive blob landing directly onto your face?

I've always thought bumping was stupid, and makes no sense. Something huge with tons of mass shouldn't be effected by something tiny with tiny mass. Its extremely basic logic here. Sure, two ships of similar mass should bump from eachother, but a tiny nat should have little effect on something massive.

And POS'.... man, they need some love. Truely a nightmare to manage as things currently stand. Though that being said, if you were to form a corp it would be within the realms of possibility to set one up yourself. You don't need many players like you suggest.

The other points i can't agree with. Covert ops ability to engage from decloak is countered by them being mostly crap. Gates can be scouted ahead using a friend or another account. And Supers and Titans are supposed to be good at popping capitals. Thats their job!

Post with your main, like a BOSS!

And no, i don't live in highsec.  As if that would make your opinion any less wrong.

Ofcourse, one could check the starmap for "pilots in space", "ships destroyed" and "pods destroyed" in the last half hour and see if there's something going on, before making a "blind jump" into low.

But that's just silly. Bear

2) Stealth ships - the untouchable vehicle for cynos.


Recently had a fight where a cyno went horribly wrong for the other side, we popped the cyno before the bridging was complete and the vast majority of their fleet ended up scattered over the system bouncing off celestials at insane speeds, we could easily pop them as they came in bits at a time Smile Hotdropping can backfire, it doesn't often, but when it does hilarity ensues Blink
