You’re actually a ganker.
Ganking outlaws is still ganking.
You’re simply not a suicide ganker.
That’s actually the only difference.
You might find it more fun as -10, though.
I always wanted to hunt other -10 like myself,
but they all use scouting alts instead. 
What do you mean, you don’t know what they are doing?
What they are doing in the game. Mining, Hauling, being a ganker spai, other stuff.
Did you try asking?
That’s actually a serious question. You might or might not be amazed about how apparently unusual it is for people to just start talking or asking questions in chatrooms or local.

Is there really a point in this, Knowledgeminer?
I don’t actually think so.
It’s just a pile of miscommunciated back-and-forthing.
There is no point in continuing any further. There was a point in what I posted already.
Nothing there was saying that I was dismissing what you were saying only because you never ganked. I didn’t list the other reasons, that have applied to posts in this thread long before that.
Sometimes.
I was a lot more chatty a few years ago.
I’ve lost track of how many times people have said that they are not going to be posting any more, only to carry on.
That’s sad.
I’m still chatty, but there’s less people chatting.
I used to make people chat.
Then CCP began destroying the game.
Which actually also literally destroyed my game:
Eventually less people chatted, showing no sign of activity or social interests.
The sad story ends with the status quo: mostly silence.
Eve is dying…
What was your game? Before it got destroyed.
Just so you know, you’re being fooled into this nonsense too. Lorelei was also following the other thread, but even in this very thread there was this:
To which she replied this:
Plus all the stuff that Dracvlad brought in and which I’m not going to quote…
I did not ever try to call you a ganker.
I also did not know that you had never ganked, until you told us.
But I did not read all the stuff… only went over there when I got notified about getting quoted or mentioned.
I have really not been paying attention to prominence for a while. My chatty times in that channel are long behind me.
Have some faith. 
During that time I was able to play most of the day.
I was the resident outlaw of Hek and inventor of the now commonly used double- and tripple-volley thrashers allowing shooting shuttle and pod in one go, under sentry fire. I’ve helped making shooting afk people a mainstream thing by seeking public approval as a ganker who believes that anyone, who is flying afk, declares himself to be free game.
You wouldn’t walk around with a leather suitcase, in a nice suit, wearing a rolex through the bronx. That’s what they do though, according to the rules and environment of the game. I always cared about public approval.
I’ve been fighting people every day and they respected me for that. At some point people started helping me defending Hek from other gankers I disapproved of. All I needed to do was asking in local and someone would respond.
I had plenty of friends and fans. I had a scoreboard of people donating me money. People have thrown billions of ISK at me just so I stay around insulting them, fighting them and making the game feel more alive. That was long before Alphas were even an idea and I’ve always paid my sub with real money. Fifteen bucks a month wasn’t much and the ROI was insanely high.
I’ve made a name for myself by refusing to use scouting alts, always being outside the station, always being up for a fight, always shooting anyone who thinks I’m an easy target (have you ever forced a battleship to dock up, in highsec, as -10?).
My game ended when CCP changed the rules of the game to cater to a different audience, which caused the game to grow more silent simply because the following generations of people stopped being a character in a role playing game and instead mis-treated EVE like all these other MMOs that, in no way or form, deserve to be called MMOs.
In case you’re unaware:
EVE used to be an MMORPG with the single most realistic world possible, ignoring that it’s a spaceship game. The amount of freedom of interaction was absolutely unparalleled and the only reason why I’ve actually played it. It was my first and only MMO, simply because all the others are much less of an MMO than what they want to ■■■■■■■■ people into believing.
And today … Today EVE’s a collection of mini games for farmers.
I’m not ranting.
This is sad.
I remember being able to do stuff like that.
When you undock you consent to PVP.
No. Because I like hauling so much, being -10 would be counter productive. I cringe every time I see a freighter die to the police or navy.
Sadly that seems to be what the world wants… I am sure that if EVE would make more money by staying with the “single most realistic world possible” then changes would not have happened.
I was reading about EVE long before I started playing it.
Other than the spaceship sim, and the thought of a space-mmo like my old computer games… the role playing game aspect was one of the things that bought me here.
Ranting tends to use less punctuation.
EVEmail sent.
Yes. More money.
Despite having enough, upper management wanted even more.
Though I actually believe that the real reason they did this was that they felt like EVE would descend into chaos after what Erotica1 did. It always felt like CCP feared that the actually smart and capable players of EVE would literally destroy it.
I believe that “Retribution” was named like that for a very good reason.
I’m not logging in for today anymore. This is outside my TZ, but I will log on tomorrow and we’ll figure out when we can play together. Worst case I can play at this time, but not on a whim.
Make sure to be in Hek.
Do you know anything more about that than what has been publicly available on reddit etc?
EDIT: going to bed. More posts tomorrow night!
This was my vision of what I might find fun within New Eden and most if not all I had become to enjoy very much.
YAY us!
