the wretched higsec pubbie who wants to try to ~ruin our day~ spends months learning how to pop a cyno frig. the manly goonswarm newbie quickly learns how best to actually ruin the days of hostiles. why, i have been learning the past few days how to gank test ratters in delve and i've quickly learned how to do far more damage than harry "i managed to kill an ibis once" forever has done in two months just suppressing ratting in my new home system

a guy wants to gank freighters in empire, we have an entire group of people who love to do it and quickly teach him the ropes and he's busy ganking freighters within days

a guy wants to pile up isk beyond measure, well, that takes a little longer but we get him there

but nobody ever cares about making sure some nobody shitlord on eveo feel that he is an ~honourable individual~

Honestly, we don't care about making sure any of us feel like an ~honourable individual~. Screw that.

The reason people do it is because it works. Better than almost anything else. So you're basically asking why people don't do something less effective.

By their fruit you will recognize them.

Blobbers don't have eve honor or stuff.

Boat's "1v1s" only stay that way as long as he's winning, has run out of LO/doesn't have a cyno fitted& online, OR until he presses the cyno button.

I think no good stories are told about the war, because nobody likes the Goons or TEST, the dull mob in those alliances is just too overwhelming, if there are any cool characters, they are not heared, they are just overtuned by those others we all know very well

those alliances have a big PR problem in my opinion, they pretty much suck how they present themselves

we chose to be feared not liked

but we've just got such panache that people like us anyway


Heh, funny enough, this does hit close to the mark.

Why bother with the "story telling" when the languished cries of your victims can tell it for you? The story is told in all the hate Goons get.

Sir, while i totaly agree with the fact that blobs are not the best thing in the world, you are forgeting that some things arnt achievable without a blob. For example i, more then anyone in this game, want to see NC and all their friends lose all their sov and then get rounded up and herded into a big CFC jita-burn fleet and anyone of them who survived - get stuffed into containers with EMP bombs inside and then launch paded to the sun. And the best chance of taking part in all of this is being part of mighty CFC

OH WOW I'M TOO INTELLECTUALLY IMPOVERISHED TO REALISE MYSELF WITHIN A CONTEXT SO I WILL VALIDATE MY MYTHICAL INDIVIDUALITY BY MAKING A THREAD ABOUT HOW OTHER PEOPLE (NOT ME, OTHERS) ARE SHEEP.

OTHER PEOPLE ARE SOMEHOW INFERIOR AND BY IMPLICATION I AM NOT.

OP sounds like a teenager straight from the WoW crowds mindset. Making threads for attention, belittling other peoples play styles, blocking people who make valid points or whose opinions he doesn't like.

Someday, somebody, somewhere, will care about what you do if you shout about it loud enough on internet forums.

Definitely.

Probably.

Maybe.

no I'm telling the people they miss a lot in the game, nothing more

but we are used to dull comments like yours by now



Oh the irony



I find it equally ironic that someone is getting told how fail and insignificant he is in (so far) a 5+ page thread.


Lends importance to the idea. If a thread is so bad, blowing up ships is going to be worse.

blobs are fine as long as they tell good stories, but blobs how they are played by TEST and Goons, are just like pew pew COD style... they fail completely telling some good stories, however spend an unbelievable amount of time blowing up ships, its just a bit thin, thats what i mean

so, the biggest war in EVE history - and arguably the biggest online fight anywhere - lacks stories?

have you actually been keeping up with the war, or just brooding in your hatred of the parties involved? Seems like we've been watching different wars unfold.

I have zero interest in Goons/Test (or in blobs, I was in a null-sec alliance on an alt and hated blobbing) but your disdain for that play style doesn't make your comments true.

Even as an outsider I can name a dozen individuals who have stories in this war but whatever. Back to obscurity, Harry, your fifteen minutes are up (and no one cares).

just because it's your perception doesn't make it true for the rest of us.

And no, we don't want to hear it.

Have you ever heard about Bombers Bar?

C´mon dude, EVE is a sandbox and yes, 90% of fights are alliance blobs, baits, gatecamps or hotdrops. But solo play is not dead its just a little bit harder. Solo hunt in lowsec for example is PVP on hard mode in my eyes, very rare, but you have much more satisfaction if you find a target. Then you stalk it (cloaky ship is a must), analyze it if it could be a bait with cyno or just random solo player roaming the lowsec. And then you make a decision if to fight or not to fight. For me, this is much more interesting and more thrilling than just F1 tagged targets from FCs.

And if you want to roam with random ppl, try incursion community. in spare time they do lowsec roams occasionally, or as i mentioned above, try Bombers Bar. And i believe that there are many more "random fleets communities" out there.

CODE. Venture hunt contest in a nutshell
