2 Years of Faction Grind (Standing 7.0+) about to be wasted by a COSMOS bug and CCP Support’s "Deprecated Content" excuse. Need help!

:face_with_hand_over_mouth:

Imagine how much longer you could do it if you’ve only did it once every two weeks or something. Also imagine how many people might be doing it occasionally or even on a regular but still less frequent basis without the GMs ever finding out. :thinking:

:psyccp:

This I do not understand. You abused the generosity of GM’s, inpart leading to the situation we’re in now where gm’s don’t give a hoot about anything and direct everything to the forums. After your gains, you want to put a stop to the system that helps other people, that you simply abused?

The total lifetime of a character doesn’t express how long one has been playing the game. It is possible one is paying for sub, keeps training his character, but only has 2 hours a month to actually log on. In that case, he will still be a noob even after 5 years of ‘‘employment history’’. The fact that he’s claiming it took him 2 years to grind faction standing --even I who don’t run missions know that that is insanely overestimated – tells me it is possible he hasn’t had a lot of time for the game. Or he’s slow. Either case, I don’t see how it’s incongruous that someone has, say, a 10-year-old character and still a noob. It is possible, and not even that uncommon.

Well in that case im out and will blame the game if something doesn’t work the way i want.

While it’s no proof it tells me his playstyle is probably quite casual / spread out. All the more it hurts to have all that progress gone, because one person decided to screw with that particular mission deliberately. I used to be a HTFU kind of guy too, untill I came into contact with nullsec leadership and realized that many people in those positions were there because they truthfully had no job, no life, and we were asked to be COMPASSIONATE about that.

I have seen a couple of those “badasses” go completely nuts over comms because they lost something. In contrast to those displays of anger, I’d say OP’s post is relatively devoid of emotional distress and rather calm. I think people are a tad too harsh on him. I’ve seen so much worse.

That’s just your brain on causality-blockers. You took the shortest route to grief. He took the shortest route to repair. Don’t you see the two of you are made for each other? Because the both of you engage in stuff so trivial that the devs will simply undo your actions when that suits them better (retaining a player or whatever). Why don’t you try some PVP that matters?

Actually it’s not unfeasible… Especially since he worked on getting his Amarr Faction standing up first before starting the Caldari Cosmos series…

The reason for that is because the Level 4 Amarr Cosmos Agent Akemon Tolan requires Amarr Faction Standing of +7.50 for access… That Agent is incarcerated within the Prison Stage of the Guristas Complex in Otomainen System which is located in the Caldari Cosmos…

Not to mention the time to train skills and get properly equipped to run those missions… So yeah, as a casual player running missions for Storyline offers and Level 4 Epic Arcs, it definitely would have taken some time to get the standings…

What I find very comical is that a bunch of forum keyboard warriors who have never done Cosmos missions would all have the gall to be so vocally impertinent on a subject they know nothing about…

I’m not wasting my time here. People like my posts and then they send me isk and give me fame and fortune.

You should apologise to Freya. She has found a PvE niche, and is successfully using PvP to defend it. That’s what EVE is all about. If you want to get your 5b isk mining implant or whatever this is about, you can either fight Freya for it (this was attempted and failed due to her superior skill), or you can just buy the item from her for much less than the reward of the mission is worth.

Whining on the forum only serves to make you a laughing stock, and whining to the GMs not only wastes their time, it’s disrespectful to poor Freya.

Again, you need to apologise to her.

You should apologize to the forums for posting with a newly created alt (2025/11/09) instead of your main character…

Don’t be rude to a new player.

oh trust me they will get caught

it gets worse cracker!!!

im a firm advocate for makign all high sec mission vs other empires. no bounty npcs unless its a storyline..

so think twice before you assume

Enough with the gaslighting, you’re definitely not a new player…

Perhaps, yet I won’t. I do not respect her at all. It’s not the mods that are hiding my posts, i can see the community is flagging them. I expect no less then the accusation of “whine” at expressing opinions not adjecent to your pvp-excuses. Laugh all you want. All it shows me is that you’re not willing to consider another viewpoint other then “hue hue mission item”. I’ve seen this course of action in 2011 with static DED’s. We did not respect it back then, we do not respect it now.

Aiko’s oneliners are easily countered: done. Years ago. LS-NS-WH. Solo, small fleet and big coalition fights. Sole PVP space I didn’t see was Pochven - I checked out right after the Trig invasion. My KB shows a history that might not show the best or most kills, but most of them are a lot more relavant - and got me a proper GF instead of what you’d define as forum whine.

Less roleplaying, more pew pew. Go make some quality kills in dangerspace if you want my respect.

there is no assumption, silly goose. You openly admitted to abusing the generosity of GM’s, which directly leads to the situation we’re in now. That situation being that GM’s just say go to the forums.

Now, after you’ve been part of reaching this point, you want it to end for everyone that might not be trying to abuse the system?

not only has it been some 12+ years it wasnt on thos account. I only did what others did.
