So pod kills, in secure space, are just bullying, are not they?

OP, if you got podded in any sort of space, you deserved it. In 99% of all the cases you could have escaped and chose not to.

Pod kills before Victor Andall knew how to save his pod: 2
Last Pod kill: 157 days ago, 30 days after starting to play

Pod kills after Victor Andall learned how to save his pod: 0

As you can see, learning how to save your pod can lead to up to a 100% reduction in pod losses.


Well... lets say 95%.. and that is if you stay out of nullsec and wormholes. Go to lowsec where smartbombs are more common and you're liable to loose a few pods.

After my very first pod loss, I've only lost pods in hisec due to FWI, Flying While Intoxicated.

Ok, now I just woke up...

But my reading comprehension is usually pretty good...

Just so I make sure I read correctly...

Pod-killing is cyber-bullying now?

*shakes head*

Oh my dear, dear EvE....what has happened to you?

Oh dont you start.

I remember seeing people like the OP back in 2007 all the way up to present day, Someone having a silly opinion about the game is nothing new.
So dont try to turn this into a "EVE is getting soft" kinda thing.

Your in a catch 22. CCP says that when you undock your consenting to fight. You can scam and shoot new players all you want. But if you bring up politics ....oh dear. The plex for good is a prime example of what I mean. People were getting wardeced and bothered. Their ransom was a plex for good and the dec was lifted. That is against the law and called coercion. However nothing was done about that. Now need I bring up the monocal scandal? I don't think so. You have a better chance at a fair fight with a spiked baseball bat fighting zombies. I am waiting for the day a plex gets stolen and charges are filed. It wouldn't suprise me.

Fishnet veil and everything?

Well, retract my previous statement then.

You are like at a 10/10 on the angst-o-meter.
