On the contrary, they need to stay in Eve and keep experiencing loss. It might eventually teach them a valuable lesson that they can then apply to their real life.
I’m a weird, cringe piece of garbage, for saying that most of you are toxic. yep, exactly my point. thank you for verifying that. side note, it’s a public forum, i don’t need to always present well thought out, meaningful posts. However feel free to take your own advice maybe? aside from calling me names, what did you contribute exactly? another liberal unity, equality, tolerant fellow i see.
I could be misreading what you are saying, but what I am hearing is that you are suggesting that they learn to deal with the fact that people will take what they want. I don’t know where you are from, but where I am from, the “gankers” don’t make it home for dinner. I wouldn’t suggest any real life application here. Learn to separate video game role playing with real life. It has a function in a video game, it has none in the real world. The mindset that you or anyone else is going to teach someone something through a violent encounter won’t end well for you.
You are the one who is roleplaying. There is nothing actually violent about your ship getting blown up in Eve. It is more akin to getting a parking ticket. I can imagine that some people lose their mind in real life when they get a parking ticket, which would not be healthy behavior.
People loose their minds in real life when they loose a pixilated spaceship in low sec. I kid you not.
I’ve gotten death threats for pvping in low!
Mostly from entitled FW LP farmers and the odd new player that wanders into low sec and fails to carefully read the warning that pops up on their screen.
“I don’t read those! I’ve been ignoring it. Why would kill a noob? Because it’s an easy target? You’re so bad at pvp you have to kill new players, yadda yadda yadda.”
It’s low sec.
My personal philosophy, you cease to be a noob the moment you jump out of a starter system.
And instead of asking questions, or even listening (where I would be more likely to replace the ship with a bit of extra isk to get then back on their feet with a bunch of links on how to eve better and survive in low) they just melt down and issue death threats.
Also, I’ve been meaning to Eve-mail, and get the low down on how to pick up some of your kill right contracts. Something that I haven’t done but would like to try.
I’ve had someone curse at me for mining ‘their’ asteroid. Never mind that they’d just sucked the entire belt clean with their Orca and I was just in my piddling Venture. Next time this happens I’ll be giving Aiko’s crew co-ordinates.
