You posted the graph, it is there, let me show it to you again:
Total number of losses is the left hand scale, it is showing a larger number of losses compared to 2017. So you supply a graph that shows what I was saying, and try to say otherwise. You are beginning to make me wonder about you, seriously mate, this is rather bad, and your trend line is garbage.
Are you honestly trying to tell me that 2018 is less than 2017, because you just made yourself look rather foolish.
Show the highsec data Drac (thatās what you were claiming and gave no timeframe at all, though over the last 3 years there isnāt an increase at all).
Simple request to show the highsec data to support your own claim. Surely.
You suppled the data and the graph, the graph shows an increase in structures being destroyed in 2018 as compared to 2017 it is so clear, that is what the graph shows!
My sense of an increase was looking at the destruction of Astrahus and Rataruās in 2018 and 2017 on the killboard, I had a sense that more were being blown up in 2018 then the previous year and I looked at this monthly. Your graph being of all structures backs up that feeling, though you would have to get hold of the data for structures ignoring POSās and POCOās.
My feeling was a feeling based on observation, that graph actually shows an increase in terms of all structures. We were looking at different things, so whateverā¦, if you want to argue black is white or night is day then feel free, but your graph for all structures shows an increase in 2018 as compared to 2017, it is a clear as the difference between night and day.
So why was I looking at the destruction of the Medium structures, well I was trying to get a sense for the willingness of war dec types to blow them up as they were boring to them and offered few rewards generally, the changes to low power and the shield timer being open to attack at all hours changed the difficulty of attacking them significantly and made it less of a bind. And the results are now developing in 2018.
CCP made them too easy at this point, the short window for the first reinforcement and the three cycles was a real defence in that most people were too lazy, now it is too easy. In any case CCP will have the numbers and that is all that really matters.
I am rather looking forward to the time when there are no or small numbers of structures in hisec and CCP are scratching their heads and wondering why, I find those moments of confusion by CCP rather wonderfulā¦
The graph shows the data of all space and not just high sec. From the graph you can not conclude whether the numbers have increased or decreased in high sec alone.
Except that I did not use it for that, Scipio used it to try to say that my monthly check of the killboards and my feeling that there had been an increase in destruction of hisec Astraās and Raitaruās in 2018 over 2017 was incorrect which he cannot use for that based on your comments and in terms of what it shows, which is an increase in destruction in 2018 over 2017 for all structures over all types of space.
I was merely pointing out that his graph indicated an increase in 2018 over 2017 and appeared more to back up my feeling than his rebuttal. Please direct your comments to Scipio in terms of his graph not being fit for the purpose he used it for, thank you and good day.
Only from one group of course and you have to follow the strange cult like dictates of a rather loopy religious fanatic, nah Iād rather ignore that foolish cult of personality stuff.
You posted part of the graph to āproveā your point. Which it didnāt because you couldnāt be arsed to read the eralier post correctly. You canāt wiggle you way out of this.
It is you who need to be arsed to read stuff, Scipio only detailed 2016 and 2017 data not 2018, so I said that I had picked up an increase in 2018 which I had.
So his first post with data did not detail 2018 at all, you failed to notice that.
So he then does a graph with 2016, 2017 and 2018 with an incorrect trend line and tells me this:
Note the second paragraph which is incorrect as the numbers have been increasing it is there on the graph. If you canāt tell that that indicates an increase then I have to wonder, the left hand scale is the number.
The selection which I knew to be all structures and all areas shows an increase in numbers blown up in 2018 as compared to 2017. After the changes to structures with low power mode and always being vulnerable for the first timer it was always going to happen.
I think you both have Dracvlad derangement syndrome in that anything I say has to be attacked no matter how foolish you make yourselves look.
