Educate a new player by showing that you can always disagree and tell them that ganking is good for the game.
Dont recall the exact details, but had a new player bitching about something in rookie help. Several tried to help him, i tried a private chat to help him, he declined and blocked me. Some just dont want help
The NPE should be they undock, told to make a jump and then smartbombed on a gate before they load in. They receive a crate of fireworks and a launcher.
NPE ends.
Eve should have something for noobs akin to the old paperclip advice thingy that used to appear on Word documents. Something that would come up with appropriate â Did you know thatâŠ?â comments at suitable moments. This feature could cover all sorts of things. It could establish when a noob is mining and offer advice on safety. It could offer fitting advice. And so on.
Obviously this ̶a̶n̶n̶o̶y̶i̶n̶g̶ useful feature could be turned off after a certain pointâŠor even right away in the case of new Alpha or Omega accounts of existing players.
I am very curious about people like that, even if someone can make way more ISK and get all the ISK back in no time, the person should get revenge regardless⊠should kill and steal.
Everybody who is not my alt has to die or be robbed, if those victims grow too much they become those arrogant whales talking down on everybody else!
They will only become an arrogant whale if we let them, that will be our fault⊠they are completely balless and can only become powerful by their compulsive disorder of hoarding.
Sounds to me like these are exactly the kind of players who are unsuited to the game, and its for the best that they leave.
We only want to play with nice respectable people here, not pottymouths like Scott.
But I do think itâs ignorance and lack of understanding that creates the anger, aggression and pottymouth effect.
Itâs the same thing that Aiko mines in why was I ganked.

The NPE should train players to be wolves instead of sheep. A wolf in sheepâs clothing can still mine and survive.

In reality donât we need all and every type of player
Off players? You mean you donât want diversity in the game? You donât want players being prepped for whatâs actually out there?

In many cases that could be true.
But I see people all the time do it in RL because they cannot accept they are wrong (or outplayed in this case).
Accepting that you are not the most important person in the world is a skill many people have lost. It can be regained, but not by people who stamp their feet and rage because they didnt auto win a videogame, argument, queue in a store etc etc

Sure, assuming youâre OK with PA inevitably pulling the plug as EVE fails to sustain numbers that are worth keeping the game running.
I have a feeling that youâd love that, so you could point the finger at all those ganker meanies and go âSee?! Itâs their fault for griefing players!â
I think youâre going to have to wait a long time to rub everyoneâs noses in it. The pessimist in me says EVE has at least another 10 years to go.
Itâs more that Iâd love it because CCP have been making poor choice after poor choice but Iâve been playing the game too long to give up on it entirely. When EVE finally dies Iâm free, so gankers should continue ganking new players at unprecedented rates.
Hm, should we also teach the nublets healthy life balance and that they can walk away from a vidya game any time as a grown adult?
I think its a good lesson 
They are already getting an education, at the school of hard knocks.

Imagine loving a game so much but hating a specific gameplay element so much that one would cheer on the gameâs total death if it meant that specific gameplay element was gone. Talk about cutting off the face to spite the nose.
Some of these grown adults are 12. Yes thatâs right, you just got ganked by a 12 year old in a catalyst.
Yeah, it must sucks to love a game but despise its developers. Looks like you donât want to make the choice to quit - youâre hooked despite yourself - and need a good reason to ( besides the ones that make you despise PA ) so you use ganking as a black sheep because no one loves to be ganked, even though you do understand itâs part of the game.
You can set yourself free, no need to wait for EVE to die, it will be a long while before it does, I figure another 10 - 15 years if not more.
Itâs obviously troubling you. Make the first step into your well-being and uninstall for good. Youâll then see that coming on this forum is futile for you and you will be free.
But I have the feeling youâre enjoying yourself on the forum for lack of enjoyment in-game.
