Do you have any idea how many teenagers and little kids play this game? PvP games attract particular lots, and they are chief among them.

Hate to tell ya, but if you are looking for people to honor fair fights you are out of luck.

Btw... cool story, bro.

I honor all 1v1s... if they are proposed as such. And up until the point they are dishonored. After that, its fair game.


However, I'm not very good anyway, so I doubt even two of me could win your average "fair" fight.

Yeah. You're the Lone Ranger. The rest of us are Tontos.

Word to the wise, if you're in Rens, Hek, Amarr, and Jita and someone says 1v1, you can bet the farm they mean 1v1 (with a few other folks, don't mind them.) The question isn't "are you the only one who honors 1v1 anymore?" The question is, what thuh hell were you doing accepting pvp challenges in Jita? Save yourself the headache and just accept a contract or two there. You lose as much in less time.

Paradise is like where you are right now, only much, much better.

On a side note, bring a buddy to get involved if someone dishonors it.

1v1s are fun, win or lose. I always honor them.

Plenty of people honor 1v1, just not too many in highsec. Go to lowsec and ask for a 1v1 and you will likely get it.

Welcome to the by-product of CCP marketing.

This my fellow eve players is someone who likes to complain.
He had an alliance mail sent out about me bubbling a gate as he lemmings into system in a pod


he has threatened 2 of my corp mates (in the same aliance at the time) saying if he ever seen them in 0.0 he would kill them
"[15:25:24] Tridik > if i see you in 0.0 hammer or igc your dead"
they welcomed it

oh yeah he also neglected to tell you his corp left Giantsbane due to being trolled for being in a 0.0 alliance but never being in 0.0

and heres the km http://www.eve-kill.net/?a=kill_detail&kll_id=12259261

all i can say on the matter is Y U NO USE RIGS its a t2 ship with no rigs.... and you cry about losing it...
high sec is just after Jan
stay there

There are no true 1v1s unless they are for fun with members of your corp/alliance. It should generally be assumed that whenever you challenge someone to a 1v1 that they will be bringing back up or cheat one way or the other.

I do, but certain corps/alliances I simply won't take their word. Awful fun when it works though, is quite rare.

What you did was effectively as stupid as agreeing to borrow $20 to a junkie then complaining because he didn't pay you back.

Put differently:
We. Don't. Care.

If anyone ever looks at you and says,_ "Hold my beer, watch this,"_  you're probably going to want to pay attention.

It looks like you asked for a 1v1 but it was never explicitly agreed to. And then you had enough butthurt to come to the forums and waste everyone's time with your lack of attention to detail and poor preparation.

In the future, if you want a 1v1 honor fight, get the other pilot to actually agree to a 1v1, get him into a fleet with you and meet at a safespot for the fight to minimize the possibility of inturruptions from other people.

Protip #2: rigs are cheap.

#3: The more you cry, the more likely people are to follow you around with a tear-collection jar and malice on their mind.

#4. Apparently you have a hard-on for your previous alliance. Carrying a grudge is fine, but don't expect anyone else to give a darn about your butt or how much it hurts.

I honor my 1v1's, bail whenever someone gets another involved. Recently however I have taken to having two alts ready to interfere with rr/jam if another starts fighting on me.

Unfortunantly it happens.. I usually find its best to stay in contact with whoever you find honors your 1v1's and just fight them and their friends.

Also, i think Tridik is a bit butt hurt that his corp was kicked from the alliance for being a waste of space.

Also... learn what NBSI means. kThnx.

You could always start a web site where you and anyone else interested keep track of those who do and those who do not honor 1v1. Then when before anyone starts such a contest, they can check the site and see where if their opponent has been dishonorable.
