PK means player killer and is a term used in lesser games for players who attack other players.

Did the OP mistake Eve for anything other than a PvP game?

Hahaha ‘lesser games’. Some of the best games I used to play in the late 90’s early 2000’s had people running away spamming pk while me and my friends shitcanned them 😄

Wow kid, didn’t mean to trigger you. I was just pointing out :  
If he was posting with his main, the killboards did not support his story.  
If he was posting with an alternative, then he lacked the courage to follow proper forum etiquette.  
He was posting about quiting in the wrong forum, not to mention that coming on the forums to complain was counter productive.

It appears that numerous other posters had the same or similar concerns. You, however, decided to play white knight and ride in to slay forum injustice where none was present. I also find it quite amusing that you call me dumb, especially since I am one of the few in EVE who have earned the title of “Dr.” IRL. However, this is EVE forums, where claims and opinions run the full spectrum, so feel free to agree,disagree, or ignore. Perhaps I should have taken my own advice and chosen the last option in regards to your post.

Yeah lol, I know exactly what you mean. Some of the games I played even had separated PvP and PvE servers, but they still where full of carebears who spammed PK and shed tears until the devs nerfed PvP into oblivion or the people killing them got banned. Eh, always the same 😃

I wouldn’t even begin to apologize to that guy.

How many newbros or returning newbros do you know have ever used an alt account for posting on these forums? That’s pretty much strictly vet/troll behavior. It was obvious troll just from reading, that’s why I and I assume you as well did any digging at all to see if there was even a nugget of truth to his complaint.

Calling me “kid” after having your point debunked. It’s what those insecure people of inferior intellectuality try to do to achieve some kind of superiority in their limited worldview.

Like I already pointed out, it doesn’t necessarily have to end up on his killboard. I already did the thinking for you. All you had to do was _digest_ and you still couldn’t manage that one.

> [@Buoytender\_Bob](#):
>
> If he was posting with an alternative, then he lacked the courage to follow proper forum etiquette.

It’s an unwritten rule that regulars are aware of, while some dumb person, whose sole intention was coming here to whine about how he got ganked and is now quitting a game he was never cut out for in the first place, is surely not.

> [@Buoytender\_Bob](#):
>

Is he the first person to do that? No. Does anyone care? No.

> [@Buoytender\_Bob](#):
>

I merely pointed out what a retard you are. Whether or not the OP is indeed a troll is nothing I care about. I did not come here to feed the troll that you all believe the OP to be and if he really is one, then you do an awesome job feeding him the trash he desires. Just like a drone of inferior intellectuality would do.

> [@Buoytender\_Bob](#):
>

That title by itself doesn’t say anything at all about your actual intelligence. If you were indeed a smart person, you’d be aware of that. Someone of average intelligence is just as able to attain a PhD, given enough effort, as someone with gifted intelligence and let’s not forget about the field. For all I care you could have a PhD in some completely irrelevant junk science field nobody gives a rats’ ass about.

The sole reason you mentioned it in the first place is the very same reason you called me a “kid”. You’re feeling insecure about my post and now try to gain some upper hand with a feeble attempt at discrediting me. It’s exactly what a dumb person would do. Thanks for proving my point and have a nice day.

I find that people who whine in game, probably whine IRL.

_It’s not fair. It’s not fun. I don’t understand._

This is because people dont want, dont have time to learn about the game, then they think its too hard, but in reality they make a lot of mistakes. Danger is there, but can be mitigated with few clever decisions, tricks.

All other arguments aside, I must agree that starting your post by calling whoever you’re talking to “kid” automatically puts everything else you say into question. It’s a very _very_ transparent attempt to demean the _person_ you are talking to, rather than their _arguments_, which strongly hints that your own arguments are pretty weak.

If you’re trying to prove a point - to win an argument - it’s definitely not a good way to go.

Actually, the reason I quit EVE is that I started crypto mining and crypto trading. I suppose I might get PK’d by hackers and the government, but its more satisfying to earn crytpo than isk. I thought about logging in to dick around in Jita markets today, but got three browsers trading stuff on margin.

That said, EVE trading did give me a good education in how to play the markets.
