People who appreciate solo content came to the forum, were told to leave EVE, they aren't welcome.

So they did.


Yeah and all we're left with is a bunch of F1 spamming monkeys that couldn't wipe their own asses without someone screaming WIPE WIPE WIPE into coms.

So that's why my bum is always dirty....

Too much ambiguity and variations in SP's for me and other friends I've talked to regarding pvp and solo fights. There needs to be some bench mark or level system in regards to a players points. Yes a dude with 70 million SP will rofl stomp the dude with 7million. With damage modifiers maxed out along with general resists (defenses) maxed out, why bother as a new player? Stroke the veterans ego? No thanks!

i.e for every 10 million sp you earn you'd gain a level. Just an idea?😗



uh no they won't. I have 130m sp (give or take, no implants or i'd have more.) and a 7m isk noob kills me all the damn time. SP means nothing in eve.

OMG Comet Mining idea!!! Comet Mining!

Yea, but some people need an excuse for why they lose, SP is a convenient one. Others are off grid boosters, overpowerer ships, and blobbing.

What put the lie to all of that is people like Marlona Sky and others beating the crap out of people with sub par ships, taking on uneven numbers and such. That takes thinking and PLAYER skill, but they don't have that (nor do they have the will to learn) so it's "crap, i better find some external thing to pin my internal failures on before my ego takes a hit".

What LP store is that Player Skill skillbook found in Jenn? I can't seem to locate it on market anywhere. Oops

Following the advice of a corp mate,( and many here it would seem ) I'm doing the whole "buy 20 cheap ships and lose them in lowsec" thing. I'm not having any trouble finding fights, my only trouble is winning them!

It is great fun and every loss ( and occasional win ) teaches me something, usually what I cocked up and how to not do it again. If a 13mill sp noob like me can find good fights I'm pretty certain anybody can if they just apply themselves a bit.

that reminds me, i need to send my 100m sp pvp alt to thouse... and for the record, all gunnary and supllemental skills to 5 and i still lose to a 10m sp noob. So again SP's mean zero in eve.

OMG Comet Mining idea!!! Comet Mining!
