What? Of course it has value, namely that players shouldn’t pretend the game should be changed to make it easier for them and more difficult for those that do things they don’t like. How is it self defeating? What you said there makes no sense.
Undesirable to whom? You may consider some player behaviour is “undesirable” all you want, but as long as he’s playing according to the ToS/EULA, that doesn’t give you the right to pretend the game should be changed to make his gameplay harder. This is precisely what all the whining on the forums about criminal and “griefing” activities is about and the very reason that whining is despised so much…
Whether the discussion is worth having or not depends entirely on what’s being discussed. Most discussions that happen on these forums about supposedly “undesirable” behaviours are total ■■■■■■■■ and pure crybaby whining…
I’m starting to think you like arguing for the sake of arguing. You’re talking to the wrong person for that.
You think anybody, and CCP in particular, is going to care whether you think tethered ships should be able to reship or not?
