It is equally

unfortunately zkill has not fetched kills correctly it appears because there are over 80% of the kills missing on our killboard over the past 3 days… so until this is resolved the “look at the killboard” argument is kinda invalid.

It’ll take awhile to have all the kill’s, you can speed it up by manually posting the important stuff thou.

Been fun. Will not be logging in until this is mechanic is reversed.

and if you take a look at most of the kills that have posted already, mostly frigates/cruisers (small gangs roving) and an even larger part is cloaked ships (there goes the dscan argument…)

your last kill is literally from Oct 14th 2018 you will not be missed xD

Funnily enough there is more to the game than just PVP, and more characters than just this one

lol again for a guy who hides in a WH and hasn’t done any real fleet fights your trolling is bad…

there it is <3 thank you

Na he was trying to aim that one at me, because like most of the people on here defending the blackout, he doesn’t actually live in NULL so of course he supports it, lmao

Yet another chicken subs when it became 100% safe to be a ganktard.
Risk-averse people who only drop on pve ships when there’s no risk of pvp are not needed. Go away.

“lol if it was 100% pvp”
I suggest you to load Occator with 5B stuff and undock from Jita.
That should explaint you idea " * You consent to PvP when you click “undock”."

That is not opinion. That is fact.

Time for some blackout stories of failure.

One of the miners from our neighbours decided to undock 2 Hulks, which already makes it sound like a darwin award story… but he didn’t even get to fire a mining laser, TWO curses were already hanging out in the belt at 0. But that’s not the end, as they were chewing hulks, a third party kikimora fleet lands on them. Curses were ganktards, so they chose to not pvp and didn’t even target the kikimoras or attempted to escape - their sole interest was downing tackled hulks, which they did, before dying. Makes you wonder who’s worse, botlike ganktards, or morons who undock hulks during blackout.

Our newbies asked us what makes ganktarding so OP. Vets took all 3 of them to Delve and 30 minutes later absolute beginners who barely trained into stealth bombers had a VNI kill, proving how ridiculously easy, stupid, risk-free, effort-free, and skill-free ganktarding is, even when your fleet is lacking in skills, numbers, and effort, it is still able to bag an easy kill on pve ship. Honestly, CCP, going through with blackout without addressing the most basic balance issue with it was why people didn’t log in this sunday.

Overall, we can see that nothing in the whole decade was as bad of a change as a blackout - not even bugs and issues, not even monocles, could lose so much online.
