Your cookie-cutter hyperbolic "lowsec is all gatecamps! null is all blobs!" tells anyone who has actually left highsec that you haven't.

Congratulations.

Roll OP deserves to get banned for flipping noobs, but shooting internet spaceships in a game about shooting internet spaceships is hardly indicative of being anti-social. If anything, given the framework of the game, it's quite social indeed.


I disagree that overgeneralizing the plot of an online game suddenly absolves one of all anti-social conduct. To some people this game is indeed just an organized display of lights with no significance. But to others it is a hobby and those people enjoy putting in endless effort in order to build something worthwhile. Just because the game has some mechanics that lack polish or are easily exploitable does not suddenly make it "ok" or ethically appropriate to do it.

As for the behavior being indicative of being anti-social, I think it absolutely is. Even though the dude may be a total carebear in real life, that does not mean that the way he plays his character here is not anti-social. And if you have noticed lately, all aspects of the internet seem to be adept at bringing out the inner Sociopath in many people, including internet spaceships.
