This thread is driven by the feeling that someone requires a significant amount of help.
It’s ranting.
It’s “think of the children”.
It’s irrational.
It’s created out of fear from those who refuse to just learn how to PvP.
OP is just the unwilling/unaware messenger.
It’s driven by OP’s small sample size of new players. OP manages to find people who believe that what they want would be a good idea, while not understanding that it wouldn’t be. The OP accepted that as his own and thus created a thread asking for an idea that’s coming from people who haven’t even really played the game yet.
OP believes that his small sample size applies to everyone equally.
OP does not understand and refuses to acknowledge why his request is counter-productive.
The topic is not being approached rationally, but from the perspective of someone who sees helpless victims who need their hand held so they can get along in the world, while not understanding that this is exactly the opposite of what’s actually effective and proper.
Evolution would get rid of these new players, because they’re incapable of defending themselves. Not because they didn’t learn, but because they don’t understand how easy it already is to just learn it.
Young animals play-fight with their relatives for a reason.
OP ignores that people who are raised in specific ways will be having a hard time accepting anything else but their personal norm they wish to live in. OP refuses to acknowledge and or is blatantly unaware of the fact that training - aka controlled fights - are and always will be inferior to just “fitting 50 rifters and heading to lowsec”.
OP does not recognize that fair fights and training will not make people “prepared”, because there is nothing to be “prepared” for. The idea that one “needs to be ready” has been a myth since 2003. People who claim that they need to be prepared, or ready, are usually those who rarely ever actually feel prepared and ready.
Training them with fair fights will not change that they don’t feel ready for “real world” combat, aka unfair fights.
Should be locked, because it’s pointless ranting based on an irrational, uninformed, ignorant opinion.
