Ah, in other words, new players are being ganked either within the rules or outside of them?
If outside the rules, it is a matter already decided, by CCP. Appropriate punishment will follow.
If new players are being ganked within the rules - no matter where the gank takes place - then no rules have been broken, and thus - though you may dislike it - CCP will not act.
Anyway, who can tell a genuinely new player from a crusty old veteran cheapskate? Not this’n Sir!
Except it isn’t? I’m super confused as to why you keep pushing this lie LOL.
Oh? Where? You got that proof or
He not only glosses over it, he refuses to educate or help the nubs I mean he was out right griefing Omni, who is a nub.
Exactly. Griefing isn’t ganking
I dunno man. Aiko was in Uedama last night and def wasn’t killing noobs. She did bag a nestor tho
Course you do. Its EVE
That is a mechanic of the game
Cept they aren’t
Yep. 100%. Cause all the other playstyles wouldn’t be too far behind But you knew that already. You want EVE to fail cause you can’t muster up the will to actually quit LOL.
I doubt that Rroff. You don’t matter enough
Hello Obvious Alt
Maybe just learn to play? Kthx
You got any proof or
They reimburse ganked ships? ROFL. Bro you know you don’t gotta lie right?
Other games that are not non consentual pvp centric that may be true. Thankfully EvE is different that most other MMO’s out there. I realize from your attempts at driving off new bros in other posts that it is not the game for you Lucas, but many people love EvE, and don’t want to see sweeping changes in it.
As I said in the other thread I have an alpha alt that I am having a blast with. New bros in Alpha accounts can learn to do fun and exciting things from day 1 in EvE.
It stings the first time one gets their ship shot out from under them. But if people reflect on what happened and learned from their mistakes, they will improve, and it won’t happen. My Alpha alt has to run like scared cat when vets come into my systems looking for fights, but so what. They can’t catch me, and I have fun escaping from their attacks.
Just because you can’t learn from your mistakes and have fun does not mean that no one else can. Quit trying to poison the well please.
And I can’t quote you saying that you are against cannibalisms! OMG you are a thrill-kill werewolf-cult cannibal (or maybe that is just a bunch of silly nonsense, but you never know).
I am not sure if I would quit, but I would miss it. Honestly it might be a straw that would break the old camels back. I am hoping the new FW additions are going to be fun though.
Well to be honest I was thinking back in 2004 or 2005. I remember being surprised the first time I realized that high sec space was not safe space. Of course it was alpha thrashers that I saw ganking people back then.
Compared to the total number of kills in EvE in a month, it does not seem that common either.
First off, I agree that I don’t know for sure how strangers react. I don’t know for sure how I would react to something. But I have had friends who do not like EvE because of the non consentual pvp. They also did not playing on the red server in EQ, and did not like playing Shadowbane. These friends just did not like nonconsensual PvP. They love playing in the WoW battle grounds though, and honest don’t understand why I can’t stand WoW.
Some people don’t like non consensual PvP. EvE is one of the only games to survive that is built around non consensual PvP. You are not going to get my friends that hate EvE to play EvE without turning EvE into Wow.
Secondly, you know, making strawmen is even dumber. At no point do I say I don’t want people who don’t play EvE like me to leave EvE. I just don’t want EvE to be turned into something else to please people who don’t like to play EvE.
You’re the one who wants to drive out gankers because you don’t think that their game style is engaging for you! And just after you tried to strawman me with the same argument.
I have seen MacGybo’s videos, and I don’t have the patience to do what he does. I have seen Aiko’s catalyst fleet looking for targets, and I don’t have the patience to do what she does. Just because it is not for me does not mean their playstyles should be nerfed Lucas!
In the other thread you admitted you wanted to drive off the new bros and see EvE fail. Why are you trying to poison a game that so many love with your toxicity just because you don’t like some people’s play styles.
As pleasant as you have been with me Lucas, I can see why you have made such a good impression on others.
No, not disingenuous. I rarely write loosely, and even more rarely, insincerely.
I said ‘CCP will not act’, and your comprehension skills should note this as contrasting with ‘Appropriate punishment will follow’, ending the previous paragraph.
Reimbursing/replacing lost items, does not punish the ganker.
What ? I got shot by a sniper within 2 seconds of joining Call Of Duty. I got massacred the first time I entered a Counterstrike arena. Even as far back as Team Fortress I got trounced on first entering a game I hadn’t a clue of the mechanics for. You clearly haven’t played many online games.
Ok gloomer. You know this game is built around PvP right?
Ok gloomer, lets try to make people having fun in a fun game a negative now. That’s not a silver lining! Its a big droopy dark rain cloud.
Oh nose, you new bros can’t possibly have fun because of the competition. The gloomy rain god has spoken! No more having fun! It is impossible!
Or maybe it will be the exodus of myself and many other veterans. You just want to spin everything so you can have your way against everyone else.
I expect nothing but sarcasm and cynicism from you Lucas. No worries man, I got it. You want to see EvE fail. You already said so.
And thus the dark time of the Gankpocolypse came, and behold Lucas, the dark and gloomy profit of doom is hear to warn everyone that they can not have fun unless the parts of the game Lucas does not like are removed!
You talk a lot about numbers, but don’t offer any. At least I admit when I am making statements based on my memory.
It does not seem even significant to me gloomer.
Well the only one who is not letting them pay for omega accounts is themselves, because EvE’s "shooting at red triangles or running epic arcs (that mostly involve shooting red triangles and delivering packages) is dull compared the the raiding of even EQ let along WoW or FF. Lucas they would rather play EQ P1999 than mine space rocks or shoot red triangles in safety. The thing that EvE has is the PvP! EvE’s PvE is repetitive and can not compete with EQ p1999, let alone a modern MMO.
You just don’t get it Gloomcas. EvE, at its core, is a PvP game. This is the thing that you don’t want, and removing it will destroy the best parts of EvE.
Are you kidding? Tell me you know nothing about ganking! High Sec Suicide ganking is balanced. You just want to remove it.
Well then why don’t you figure out how to nerf this mythical ganking without destroying it for everyone else? I don’t want you to ruin my fun of being chased just because you don’t approve of someone else’s game play.
Lucas, my interactions with you have been full of you lying to me, lying about me, using false arguments and rhetorical tricks when you can’t get out of things, straw manning me, and then you attacking new bros saying you want to drive them out of the game.
It is not that you are against ganking man, it is your attitude.
Here’s another thing. Were a very small crowd on the forums. He only has an audience of what now?
I asked the ISD as to how many ppl were on the forums per avg yrs ago. It was apx 150. Now we have 15? I know it’s more than that, but you get what I mean.
Thats why I get such a good chuckle outta them.
It’s entertaining to me to simply watch the rants, or in some cases, meltdown.
As this has devolved into attacks. Closing the thread
