Since management is firmly planted in the "Let the Sociopaths Rule" position (sort of bent over...hands on knees...pants down...you know the drill)...it's FOOLISH to play Russian Roulette (sorry all you Rooskies out there) with your hard-earned assets on an endless merry-go-round of replacing ships you can afford to lose.


Bah. Of course management cares. They added a ship spinning counter to further entertain and amaze you.

Honestly, a lot of times it's your own fault if you get suicide ganked. I've been playing this game on and off for about 2 years, and I have yet to get suicide ganked, and I'm almost all carebear, mining and hauling included. All you have to do is be careful. If you're mining, and a thrasher/catalyst or something bigger shows up for no reason, dock. BAM! you still have your hulk, and "Sociopaths" don't get any tears. If you're hauling, don't use autopilot. Especially if you've got anything of worth. Jita undock? insta-warp to a safe.

Don't blame others because you haven't figured it out yet.

Why do people always come up with this.

Laws do not protect anybody, they only punish people.
No law in the world can keep anybody from doing anything, if he really wants to do it.

That's why making stricter and stricter laws is a stupidity on it's own, too.

Besides, you can't get scammed IRL if you are not a gullible idiot.
In 5 years of playing this game, I've never been scammed or suicide ganked.
Bullshit. Everybody can and will get scammed and saying you never got scammed makes you look like a liar.

CCP should make an expansion that allows Eve players to be a part of Concord, and run around chasing criminals.

Eve Police FTW!
Well, hopefully yes, but without you.


Bro, the only way you can get scammed in Eve is if you don't ******* pay attention.

I tend to double and triple check the **** out of every contract, market transaction, direct trade, courier job, and everything else that could scam me.

If you were dumb enough to let it happen to you, don't assume people are lying when they say it never happened to them.


Poster was referring to real life, and you didn't comprehend what he wrote. In the same breath you are bragging about your leet comprehension skills. ******* post of the year IMHO.

That's the point ... where is the punishment?

Even -10 sec status Criminals have nothing to fear.

CONCORD destroys their ships over and over and over and over .... and over again and NOTHING happens.
Is CONCORD realy THAT stupid and can't catch them to arest them?
And even more, even if they catch them ... they let them keep the goods they stole.

Sorry CCP ... never in the past, not now and never in the future ANY police would allow this!

And now the funny part ..
When ever someone says: "In RL criminals ..." he get hardcore flamed :"EVE IS NOT REAL".
And now the exact same criminals cry: "In RL blabla".

This leads just to -> Gankers are a bunsh of pullshit talking trolls


That makes no sense from lore stand point how do you catch someone that will just kill himself if you try? Pod pilots are immortal they have no problems with killing themselves if you're trying "catch them to arest them". These are rules that work in a immortal society "you do bad we kill you" because there's no such thing as catch them.

Also, anyone that ever told a victim that it is their fault is sub human.

You can't help what others do. All you can do is deny them yourself as a target. It's ignorant to believe a victim couldn't have done anything to prevent what's happened.

In Eve
the inattentive are scammed.
In Eve
The unwary are killed.
In Eve
The trusting are robbed.
In Eve
The independant are drowned.


This game was built on a foundation of sociopathic enabling. Every action you take competes with everyone else. Every gain you make can be taken from you. Every trust you establish is meant to be betrayed.

It is up to you to either master taking the gains of others, develop the savvy to keep your gains, or lose your shirt.

although as much I would like to not undock my shipyard simply needs too many things to keep going. :(
