You’re coming at me with hostility right out of the gate there buddy. I didn’t say that it was necessarily going to happen, nor that I wanted it to. I’m not one of the bigger fish you speak of. I barely rate as a tiny fish, ask Galaxy Pig. I just try to keep up with the narrative that I’m seeing. There hasn’t been one lately, but I remember there being a glut of threads discussing why this game seems to have a problem retaining players. Guy, I have a hard time believing that folks will want to continue logging in to be fish for you to shoot in a barrel. But if you tell me that I’m wrong, and that’s exactly what’s happening, I’ll be the first to admit that I was incorrect. ---

This is the defeatist attitude that is the hallmark of the carebear. Jus’ sayin’. If you’re really in the military, honestly you should have more pride than this. ---

EVE would be boring without danger. The New Order government is dangerous, because it enforces the law with swift and decisive punishment. People enjoy playing the villain, and they like to see what dastardly crimes they can get away with. The New Order is always there to provide justice, forcing miners to go back to square 1 and try to figure out how they can smuggle more ore. ---

Yeah you’re right but how does one fight back against suicide gank ships? Suicide their tornado with your own tornado? Boring. Theres no fun counter it’s just learn to hide better scrub. They should just make safety red in hs require a corp structure. Atm suicide ganking is one of the most risk averse gameplay. Inb4 wah I have to defend something from ships that aren’t transports.
