Actually, he gave _three_ warnings.

Also, interestingly enough, apparently this one was mulling it over before making the commitment, as I managed to find this when taking a look inside P&P:

Anyway, I better start saving up my pennies for a Fortizar for Lee’s lemmings to shoot (good corp name, actually). I mean, an Astrahus or an Athanor or something would be much quicker and more accessible, but Lee won’t settle for anything less than a large.

Once again, I am already war-eligible.

You don’t _have_ to degrade yourself further by begging someone you outnumber 1,000 to 1 to launch a structure for you to destroy without any resistance.

But you probably _will_ degrade yourself further _anyway._ Because, well, you’re _you._

She’s paying Safety billions, to…erm…gank 4 of the 200 ships AO lost in the past week. I think she should demand a refund.

Maybe not…but that’s more due to how much I am prepared to spend on a game than how much I _could_ do. There comes a point where one’s ‘game honour’ is not worth the cost. It is just a game, after all. Suffice to say that the odd billion or more is not a problem…and one really does not need billions to be effective.

That kind of sounds like a low-key brag about being wealthier than I am in real life. Which very well could be, considering I come from a poor Eastern European family, and have only recently entered the work force. But if that’s your angle, then you’re not really the honorable individual as the one you portray yourself to be.

* * *

On a fundamental level, players can be divided into these three categories: content creators, content consumers, and content abstainers.

Players like Aiko and me are content creators. We make interesting things happen, and provide other players with things to do.

Most players are content consumers, and are the ones who show up for gangs or mining ops. They basically do what they’re told, which isn’t so much a judgement of their character as it is a consideration for community-organizing efforts. Most people will be followers (which isn’t to say they’re necessarily introverted or anything along those lines), and that’s perfectly fine.

Finally, we have the group that consists of players like Dracvlad, Epeen, and various other fly-by-night forum rage-posters who never do anything interesting, but always find time to complain about other players. These are the players who’d just like everyone to leave them alone so that they can mine ice or grind their empire standings in peace, and will only respond to content (usually negatively) when it’s forced upon them, regardless of whether the content is positive (e.g. being invited to some kind of activity) or negative (e.g. getting ganked) in nature.

You, personally, are walking the fine edge between content consumer and content creator. You act like you _want_ to be a content creator, but you don’t want to commit to it and/or expose yourself to the dangers associated with such a play style (and I’m not just talking about having your ship destroyed in a PvP fight here). You’re going to have to think about what it is you _truly_ want to do in this game.

People are not one ‘or’ the other. Most are a mix of all three. Miners don’t just ‘consume’…they also ‘create’ the very material necessary to build Aiko’s ships.

As for corporation mining fleets, they exist more for protection than for people ‘doing what they are told’. You have this weird notion of a corp like AO being like a Borg hive…when that is much more Aiko’s domain. _Most_ people in AO are doing their own thing most of the time. I mine, go ratting, ete, etc, all without anyone telling me to. I guarded a gate against Aiko’s lot…but that was my own undertaking, nobody ‘told’ me to.

You have a rather warped view of what constitutes ‘content creation’. The mere act of logging in creates content. I am a name in someone’s Local. Undocking creates content…I become a ship that can be shot at. You have this bizarre view that content is only created by wardeccers or gankers…but wardeccers and gankers are merely _destroying_ content others have created in the first place.

To my mind, every single thing that affects Eve in any way is content. Undocking from a hub with a load of Neutron blasters is content, especially with all the gankers about. Selling those blasters is content too…especially when I sell them in places where the prices is 50% higher.

As for thinking about what I want to do in the game…I am already doing what I want to do in the game. How many other 5 month old noobs can get Aiko or yourself so worked up ? I figured, the day I joined Eve, that the #1 weapon is not a Titan…it is the mind.

No its a brag about being sensible with what little money I do have. I’m not gonna spend money on a game that _ought_ to be spent getting the car’s brakes fixed.

I think you might be somewhat confusing “content” with “contents.” Putting stuff on the market isn’t the type of “content” we discuss when talking about player-generated content. Anything that can be outsourced to a simple NPC function isn’t “player content.” Content is what _can’t_ be duplicated with a few lines of code, which is how real, live human beings interact with you.

This doesn’t have anything to do with wars or ganking. Content creation can come in many forms, and can be completely non-violent in nature.

Yes, we are each other’s content. But the bulk of the share of creation doesn’t come from your side, and this is qualified and quantified by the reasons and amount of time spent behind our gameplay. While a good portion of _your_ time might be spent engaging in AG, “chasing” the gankers, et cetera, on the other side of the equation, they usually don’t even notice or recognize your name. At this point in time, you are much more of a consumer than a creator, although you seem to aspire to be the latter, which is a _good_ thing.

Then why bring it up and brag about it? 🤔

He gave only _one_ warning, but now it’s up to three.

I love it when carebears try to be all tough on the forums. Especially when they make alts named “giving ONE warning” to hide their super sekret main behind.

But not being noticed is the whole idea. I don’t _want_ people to notice that I’m transporting loads of stuff about. I have a well planned method of getting stuff from the hubs…I don’t go there shouting ’ hey everyone its me again '. I use a whole bunch of tactics to _not_ be noticed. And thus far it works very well.
