How to Retain Players in EVE

Ah yes, the old “post on your main” trope — truly the pinnacle of EVE forum debate. Shall I compare thee to a logic fallacy? Forsooth, if authorship defines authority, then I suppose Shakespeare must’ve been the Earl of Oxford too, eh?

But worry not, friend. Whether main or alt, I wield words sharper than a suicide Talos on caffeine. Now, back to the discussion — if thou dare. :wink:



Its not a trope though, if you actually genuinely believed in your stance you wouldn’t hide behind a 21 day old alt :slight_smile:

So get back to me when you’re actually willing to have a debate about it without hiding :slight_smile:

Ah yes, the sacred rite of internet debate: show thy main or be forever banished to the land of invalid opinions.

Look, I would post on my main, but he tragically perished in a lab accident involving triglavian tech, three cans of Quafe Zero, and a miscalculated filamental jump.

His last words were: “Tell them… tell them I stood by my stance… even on an alt.”

So here I am. :saluting_face:



This... is... Minmatar space!

:blush:

Be banished to the “I have an opinion that i don’t actually believe in enough to put my name to it”

Either way, not really much more to say if you’re not willing to come to the table properly and debate it, put a name to your opinion if you want to defend it

You have such a limited World View.

Eve could retain more players by being less toxic. ↑

You mean the limited world view of wanting to talk like adults?

Either way, get back to me when you’re willing to put your name to your opinion, until then have fun hiding :slight_smile:

In that case, shouldn’t we be using our real names?

Miines already on my twitter account under the same handle i use online nearly everywhere

I’m more than happy to put my name to my opinions, let me know when you’re willing to do the same, until then, you have fun with that :slight_smile:

Bravo.

I applaud your openess.

Now, I want you to think about the history of Eve Online and see if you can come up with another reason that I don’t want to expose my main.

Because you’re not willing to face the repercussions of your actions, welcome to the real world where your actions have consequences

Either way, if you’re not willing to stand by your own opinions then we have nothing else to discuss, let me know when you grow up

Cute, but transparent. Trying to dox someone’s main to win a forum argument isn’t a flex — it’s desperation.

I’m not here to win popularity contests, I’m here to challenge stale narratives and push for a better game. If my arguments hit hard enough that you feel the need to go character hunting instead of addressing the points, that’s not my weakness — that’s your tell.

This forum isn’t about killboard clout. It’s about ideas. If you can’t out-argue an alt, maybe it’s time to re-evaluate your position, not stalk someone’s mains.

Trivial to clean up, they already have chat filters and can easily just block those messages, they just don’t seem to want to

Aallin is my main and unlike you. If someone really, really wants to hunt me down for s***s and giggles. Then I guess that will happen.

Someone in a game that wants to track my main down to try and blow me out of the sky for something that I posted on the forums. Not only is that hilarious. But just maybe we both would have a little fun at the same time. Win, lose, or draw it might even liven up the day.

So if you are worried that someone might track your main down and come hunting. That says a lot more about you. Than it would about me or anyone else that posts here on the forums under our main toons.

Sorry my post offended you so badly. However I did read yours and fully understood what you stated. This is a case of you failing to comprehend what I replied. Remember to always look before you leap to false conclusions.

Have fun!

You guys are really dense.

It has nothing to do with hunting.

That seems to happen a lot here.

I don’t see a Cypherous on X.
