Don’t see any crying from me, just a cold hard logical assessment of this lame game play and how much an advantage it gives. And it is very telling that when I do so, the response with insults false kills and bravo that I get in return says who is really crying.

I have seen you chant risk/reward a few times, you want it adjusted to a perceived balance of risk and return, which is why there are no level 5’s in hisec. A silly move by CCP in fact and that was done to placate people crying about it as you put it. I thought in hard cold logical terms that they were desperate to get more people to farm.

Like me not doing anything serious in game against freighter ganking as the advantages are too great to really oppose.

I am talking about bumping and not ganking, you still cannot get your head around that, this is highly amusing. The issue is freighter bumping, remove that and ganking is fine.

It’s so lame and uninteresting that people kill freighters and bump them so they can’t even haul their cargo. You know what would be AWESOME and SUPER FASCINATING? What if freighters were invulnerable, and everyone could play Highway Semi-Truck Driver in complete safety, just hauling back and forth endlessly with no threat whatsoever!

Now that is definitely a game people would pay to play!

There is nothing wrong with ganking them, bumping them however is just a lame mechanic as it currently stands. I am not saying what you have decided I am saying!

Dracvlad supports ganking, he just thinks catalyst should only have one gun and shouldn’t be able to mount a neutron blaster, but otherwise he totally supports ganking. Also, Coercer should be a bit more expensive, maybe 10 million for basic hull.

Nothing too extreme, of course.

Right, you just like to talk smack AS IF YOU HAD. AS IF your alts are well known and you aren’t hiding them and your location because you are a scared little chicken.

I just like to point this out every time you try to talk tough while hiding in a backwater system like the coward you are.

Just admit you are afraid of the New Order of Highsec, Dracvlad. Admit you are a cowardly little chicken. 🐣

Don’t know where you managed to rustle that one up from, but no, eight guns are perfectly fine as are the cost of destroyers.

All my alts have been detailed by Aaron on the forums, it is not a big deal.

I am not hiding, you are just too lazy and useless to locate me.

Okay, so point toward the list or else you are proving that you are afraid.

Nobody cares enough about you to go like, asking around or anything. You are talking tough, so give your location or admit that you are scared.

Not to take any sides in this conversation, but isn’t this what locator agents are for?

That is what I told him the last time he went off on this subject.

I am afraid that you are unable to use locator agents and do some obvious and pretty easy basic research.

I just find it highly amusing that a player who defines himself as tough and able can’t even do basic research in Eve.

keep posting mate I am finding this hilarious, I am going to like every one of your many melt downs.

Aaron is well known, did something called Hub Zero.

I don’t see the point in this idea really. If freighters aren’t allowed to be bumped then no ship should.

Freighters are just there for PvP anyway not real indy.

Yeah, you make it pretty clear that it actually is about ganking in the second sentence.

I’m starting to think the problem here isn’t that you want to fool us but that you fooled yourself a long time ago and still believe it.

Except that I am replying to people who keep saying ganking when I am talking about bumping. So when you lot go off and say that I want to stop ganking I just answer that without bumping ganking is perfectly fine, because I only have an issue with bumping which makes freighter ganking too easy.

You just can’t get that in your heads, so you have to come up with psychological bullshite like this as if it means something, but it really is verbal garbage.

But what you are still not getting is that you generally cannot separate the two topics cleanly even though that is what you want to do.

If you get rid of bumping then you deal a huge blow to ganking which is probably your real goal regardless of your protests and insults.
