No they dont
The majority of players undockā¦which is something there is zero evidence you have ever done. Strange how that doesnāt seem to stop you spouting forth on activities for which there is absolutely no evidence you have ever been involved in.
Thereās probably not much evidence of me undocking, yet I spent an hour ratting and salvaging today.
Just because players donāt lose ships every week/month doesnāt mean they donāt play, they just play smarter and safer
Nor do any players have to prove a thing to you. It seems that youāre just trying to figure out where you stand on the PVP side of things, and I bet itās pretty far down in the grand scheme of things.
So how about you just play your game and weāll play how we PAY to play?
You do realize that disagreeing is ignorant
Please stop disagreeing. Itās ignorant.
But there isā¦8 killboard records, and its worth pointing out that these days even just doing level 2 security missions gets you guaranteed killboard records.
But I was responding to someone who comes on as if the fount of all knowledge on PvP/PvEā¦yet they have zero killboard and their account is barely 5 days old. And it is a consistent pattern here. Forum warriors who have picked up the entirety of Eve in 5 daysā¦or who joined Eve some time ago and have a killboard but not a single record for 6 or 7 years. And of course, a lot of these people are likely altsā¦who are hiding their ātrueā account, which nobody would do if it was anything to be proud of.
Well Iām sorry but they do. If someone wants to lecture me on PvP / PvEā¦I demand some evidence that they have ever actually done any themselves ! That is not an unreasonable demand.
ālevel 2 security missions gets you guaranteed killboard recordsā
Thats simply bs
You seem upset. Have you ever heard of a forum alt?
Well that just shows youāve never done a missionā¦as there are some where your ship is automatically destroyed.
Yes, people use them to pretend they have experience nobody can check up on
Why do you need a forum alt ? Something to hide ? Or are you just cycling through them hoping everyone thinks its a new person expressing the exact same opinion ( coincidentally ) as all the other forum altsā¦lol.
In the character you are posting on, you havenāt.
Is CCP working itself out of a job? I remember when the blackout went into effect, how many players quit, turning null into WH space how did that work out (huge blunder), and never came back. When a player leaves there is the risk they will move on and become interested in a game that doesnāt force them into a playstyle they donāt like. EVE used to be a game you can choose your path, now itās the path that CCP wants you to take (control freak much). This would simply result in the entire game becoming LS/NS and half the playerbase quitting the game. a significant number of people never leave high-sec. Adding systems that lets highsec be gatecamped with smartbombs will simply result in the PvP players degrading the system status at the expense of the people who want to avoid PvP, but the PvP players will say āThey can fight for the empireā but the whole point is they donāt want to PvP, and where are the rewards (new ships for the pirates) they donāt want to be forced to PvP, (other than an ocasional gate camp) and if you force a playstyle on people, they quit without a word because itās no longer the game they want to play. Oh but there will be the .8 systems that you wonāt be able to get to because they are surrounded by insta pop gates, and people playing EVE for the very first time. I agree with a lot of what has been said, and look are any systems being suppressed, let me check, never mind donāt need to. This reminds me of cellphone carriers where itās beneficial to leave, and join a new one because the new one has better offers, and the old one doesnāt care because you have been a member why should you get anything you have only been a dedicated customer forever screw you. Just keep giving us your money, and shut up. But wait there is more, redistribution (things will get better) to all the major alliances, and corps in null. never happend bigger rocks more waste. āYou donāt have to play if you donāt want toā Exactly whatās going through many minds Edited 11/19/23 2:36pm (PST time) the propaganda was a little strong, The goal is get players worked up as much as possible. Not going to lie I like propaganda.
P.S, CCP please return Skarkon back to Molden Heath
Thatās not what you said and implied. But, whatever makes you sleep well at night.
But in a sense your argument is somewhat self-contradictoryā¦even though I agree with some of the sentimentā¦
CCPās control of the game is via PvE content, which to all extents and purposes is the only thing countering the stagnant nature of nullsec. So you canāt simultaneously decry this ever increasing CCP content and then champion the very people who āwant to avoid PvPā and just do the PvE content. To my mind there has to be a counter to the ever more increased amount of PvE, and if its not going to come from the stagnant blocs incurring onto āsafeā space of their own accord then the only option is to make the safe space less safe.
What? CCP controls EVERY ASPECT of the gameās ācontentā. Why would you try to limit their involvement to āPvEā?
What I āimpliedā was that the honest people come on as whatever āmainā they haveā¦and not as an endless succession of 5 day old ānoobsā.
See, a 5 day old ānoobā can just slink off and never be heard from again, or be replaced by another 5 day old noob, if they are wrong about anything, huh, whereas someone posting on their main is having the honesty to stand their ground.
Exactly it was about that when I did some moon mining yesterday, and the estamate in ore hold was 10M from a real estate agent, I havenāt tried to sell the ore because I donāt sell it I like to keep it for myself because iām greedy like that.
No thatās nonsense. CCP control whether the 4 main races, or any of the pirate or other PvE factions can be over-run or wiped out. Even the parameters pertaining to whether individual systems get over-run are controlled by CCP. Itās not like CCP are ever going to allow players to wipe out the Caldaris, for exampleā¦even if one or two systems can be over-run.
But CCP donāt control whether nullsec alliance A over-runs and wipes out nullsec bloc B, or whether some highsec alliance moves into nullsec, and so on. At least I would hope not !
CCP makes all the rules, controls the market and security of each system. Not to mention āDoling out punishmentā to actual players. Yet, you donāt think they control the game?
There coundnāt possibly be another explaination. Everything MUST fit into your narrative.
Who ever said that thereās only one God?
Yep. I use this char to post. My combat main who has seen the eve world out of empire is not aacount active, yet.
I could post on my angel militiaā¦and then get āpost on mainā since the 1 year old char can share stories about seeing delve in 2010. In shortā¦I canāt win here lol.
Lowby sent to angels since I cba to fix my standing on this char. When in flose areaā¦I do sites and pvp as it comes up. Not spam standings fleets. 9 years of killing angels I just said screw that lol. Not really hiding much. I have many deaths on that char. I am rusty as hell at this game. I am breaking many eggs. At some point I hope to make a damned omelette lol.
