EVE General Discussion

It's also economically a good idea to kill pods, because you diminish the assets and perhaps morale of a group that isn't yours. Power and wealth are relative. If you feel confident the consequences of the killright you recieve are worth a podkill, sec stat drops will hardly stop people. Sec stat gains are a side effect of PVE anyway.

Probably less their resources than yours, since you'll want tags to repair your sec status. Unless you are one of those "the dog tags i loot are free" hippies.

I haven't run across one of those yet, I just get the black pods...must be doing it wrong.

It's only bullying if the person being podded has a sad. So you have to check to make sure they are OK with being podded first, and check with a CSM member that might decide that the victims word means nothing first. Once you've got all that checked out and cleared, you can proceed to pod the player, but then you can't boast about it, otherwise they might then get sad and that would become bullying.

Clear enough?

Why are you playing this game?

I believe when a dude mines minerals, buys BPOs, manufactures an item and sells it with much profit he feels some sense of fulfillment.

I do to - when I pod. Podding is hard. It usually requires you to set your ship up properly and in a way that lowers your dps/tank/utility. Podding makes me feel either lucky and/or skilled. Podding is warm and fuzzy and feels like butterflies.

The game does not generate food, electricity or heat for you. You play it for fun. So should you stop because it gives you nothing?

Also - if gankers are bad because they ruin your fun what will you say about competing miners and industrialists? I have limited skills in mining and industry. I could not compete with them unless I invested heavily. Aren't they trade ganking me? I want the fulfillment of mining minerals, manufacturing items, and generating huge profit. Maybe only once a week but I do. And I had to come to terms with the fact I will never be able to. Because industrialists grind prices down so hard they leave no spot for me. They could, right? They still don't.

PS - this character has almost a month invested in mining/industry. Real story bro.

But only if they were not distressed right?

So if you blew up someones ship and they showed clear signs they were distressed or upset you would let their pod go, right?

Was excited about incarna and removal of dock3d up safety...got 1000 pants drama and crapy monocle sales.

As long as we get the "Tea Bag" feature in WIS as well when violating peoples personal space in station.

If that feature comes in, can I have the option to violence them sufficently so that I can make them teabag themselves?

Being called a bully makes me feel uncomfortable.
I would like to file a petition for harassment and defamation.

This guy is going around calling everyone names in order to get his agenda cross, borderline terrorism.
Let's pod him.
