> PS: in winter, there’s a highsec expansion coming. you can keep doing what the carebears do, or you take matters into your own hands. only continuing ganking and talking on the forums only helps them. a great opportunity is coming and if it’s not taken, they just keep winning because the good guys do nothing. Relevant, long post: [Well this makes EvE look like a terrible game CCP :( - #30 by yellow\_parasol](https://forums.eveonline.com/t/well-this-makes-eve-look-like-a-terrible-game-ccp/11827/30)

If you think highsec is boring , you could always encourage others to try Low,Null or WH space. Your account lets you play there for free. No need to wait for an expansion.

For a self-confessed elitist who started playing about 18 months ago and now claims to no longer play Eve actively, you seem terribly worried about the “bigger amount of people” ( a majority ?) that don’t play the right way and have brought ruin to an idealised version of Eve that probably only ever existed in your imagination.
