Good, there are quite a lot of people who play against CODE who have noticed a fall off on activity, so they will be pleased, have fun.

If you are a space miner in highsec, there are no other threats... at all... besides mercs and gankers.

Honestly, in my opinion, those are both rare and improbable events for the average miner.

Do you guys actually want no adversaries so you can mine in eventless lack-of-concern at 240k isk/minute into eternity? I can't even get my head around what about that is enjoyable or interesting.

The presence of predators (who are actually somewhat rare) makes mining into a game. How is that not better? Would you like Mario brothers better if there were no bad guys so you could just walk to the right side of the screen until you won?

I'm glad we still wardec each other. I miss when we had grounds for independent squabbles (can flipping). The agents of CODE are doing more to keep this game interesting than 90% of the other groups in the game.

If we cannot **** each other off, we cannot have meaningful conflict.

Side note: I've been in null carebearing it up and I've learned some stuff. I believe planetary interaction my be a form of pve with such low effort required that I may be able to sustain 3 wardecs weekly with my very limited effort (5 min a day in highsec). Is anyone else doing this for war decs? The math and market seem to support.

Anyone got 5 or 6 pocos in the same system I can use at a low tax rate? (if not, I'll threaten/negotiate my way into good tax rates with someone).

Back when we all where swimming in those piles of goon-ISK they sent us from deep nullsec to kill all those carebears, remember? Those where the days! This days I am a poor ganker, gone are the days I whelped battlecruisers to kill a Venture.

sweet sweet nullsec ISK.

Ha, I'm just joking, we where never funded by the goons. If only there was a clue how we can afford all those ships. A hint about how someone who all day kills miners who do nothing else than piling up ISK they have no use for can finance their PvP... Well I got nothing, it's a complete mystery..

Anyway, I want to take a moment and say my thanks to our goonswarm overlords for making all this possible.

Nice kill by VMG on a Tayra flown by Calrizzan with no tank or modules at all for that matter moving 135m worth of rigs, mag stabs and blasters and some ammo. He needs a refresher on the code or so it seems and he obviously has no idea what a war dec is either.... Lol

What the heck even CODE is f**king the dog now? Does anybody even play the game any more?

^^ This. Goons and Code are friends. Some Code are Goons. Some Goons are Code. They fly together on occasion..that does not mean they are the same. If James, Aria, or Khoda wanted to remain Goons, James wouldn't have formed Code. Code is its own thing. Ties..maybe..the same..no.

@Drac.. Good lord, Drac..it's time to let it go. That much obsessing on something is unhealthy. Shocked

If I had a nickel for every time someone said women don't play eve, I'd have a bag of nickels to whack the next person who said it..

You sound a bit bored, quite frankly to define something I last posted about two weeks ago as an obsession is rather amusing, but if it rocks your boat... Cool

When the going gets tough the Gankers get their CSM rep to change mechanics in their favour.

When you throw words like obsession around it does, first of all I only reply to threads, which should give you a clue, the next part is that I target the hypocrisy of CODE.

I do not follow CODE players around making comments every time they post unlike certain CODE players who follow me around.

Also if you look at the C&P forum the first page contains eight look at me I am wonderful CODE threads, I can't see a single look at me I am Dracvlad I am wonderful threads.

Relax, it is only a game and I am just having fun by having the occasional jab at their self aggrandisement posts. Cool

As am I. Oh.. I'm sorry. Did I give you the impression that I gave a rat's a$$ about your opinion? My bad. Blink

Well you did to actually post, so yes it is your bad.

You seem a bit fed up, well I hope you manage to find something to keep you involved, perhaps a bit of noob venture blapping will sort you out? Twisted

Then you can post a ninth thread on the first page of C&P saying how great it and CODE is... Idea

That sounds more obsessional to me? Shocked

I don't happen to think I am wonderful at all, I am totally average, but why do you really need to tell everyone that you are so wonderful in so many threads, perhaps one thread would be enough? Question

Anyway, I will leave you too it, I have a few things to do in game...

Drac, ol buddy ol pal, its your boy Clockwork ******* Robot, son. You can see from my KB that I know a thing or two about PvP in tgis here game, every single time I've gone to null, there's been at least one exploded pod. So let me give you a piece of hecking advice:

Admitting that you know CODE enjoys spinning people up, and then trying to use the existence of many CODE threads to sort of "poke" them makes you look silly.
