Fake mail is fake, it is easy enough to get past Aiko, the fifteen minutes criminal timer, the removal of unlimited bumping and the fact that I was breaking up my stuff into smaller loads when passing through choke points and using ships there were harder to catch. Another strategy was to stop just before the choke point and move through. But the most important reason I was successful was that Aiko did not even seem to be aware that I was moving my stuff, because Aiko made no attempt to come after me, not once.
I must have done about 100 move ops through Uedama during that period, six were with a freighter and four with bowheads. I kind of enjoy doing sneaky stuff like that, but you have to have a lot of free time to do it.
Next I should expect a Dracvlad is elite post coming my way for merely explaining this, but if it makes you happy, feel free.
then i´m sneaky if i move my stuff through uedama without getting ganked ? oO
i dont think so … and i dont think so that youre sneaky xD
its not that hard to avoid ganks and only fly in a freighter or in a bowhead through uedama doesnt mean you get ganked … freighters and bowheads without any loading are not the primary target !
and as youre a hero because you dont get ganked … wow … youre a superhero by moving through uedama ! ironie off
Instead of flapping his gums about what “real PvP” is and isn’t, Dracvlad should start up EVE and actually show us. Yes, that would require actually playing the game, which is something he hasn’t done in any tangible capacity in the last ten years, but maybe it’s time to dust off those gloves and dive back in?
Come on Dracvlad, get back into EVE, make a new corporation, and take us on some of your “real PvP” ops.
Don’t you want to prove to everyone how you’re right about all of this? Don’t you want to prove that all the legends you’ve been spreading about yourself being a fearsome and respected warrior are true? There’s never been a better time.
@Dracvlad I think you’re onto something. You’ve certainly struck a nerve. Everyone knows that PK’s seek ONLY the low hanging fruit. The Catalyst CANNOT be used in ANY PvP engagement. ONLY in PK scenerios. It’s a good thing the PK’s can’t reproduce, it’s only a matter of time before they become extinct.
There’s no way that statistic is true. It just goes to show that CCP is extremely bad at statistics. Possibly even intentionally, in order to present a certain unrealistic portrayal of their game.
If you look at some pics people are posting of their stats, characters that play for about 3 hours are in the 50th percentile. There’s no way that that’s the demarcation point for when the bulk of all characters (not players, characters) start aggressively engaging in PvP.
When analyzed a zKill snapshot maybe around two years ago, the figure I arrived at was something like 8% of the active player base engages in aggressive PvP in any capacity (most of those on the extreme low end of being part of like 1 total kill or something), and that was assuming 200,000 unique players.
What’s likely happening here is that either CCP is cherry-picking characters for their statistics, or are including all PvP activity and not just the “kill” side in their statistics (which would come closer to 50%).
