Oh NO, I am not allowed to Join NEPF Sargon’s warning was extremely clear that Frostpacker can not do that. Jeff knows too so you can go ask him also I am not allowed to join NEPF it would upset the safety of Highsec.

All I can say is that RP had ended and Frostpacker no longer supports Safety.

/

Should add that Frostpacker does support Eve Pandora and strongly feels it offers something better to New Capsuleer’s than what Code. or Safety did or can do for new pilots.

People who over react do not deserve any sympathy.

We should not encourage temper tantrums.

Let’s try to make something clear, the mining permit I owned & held was valid. I was given free passage to mine in Uedama. (tbh don’t even know how that permit was taken away but all I recall is upsetting Sargon "aka; _The Chosen One_ … a title given out by Frostpacker)

Now we are just waiting for my new AG permit to allow me to mine and collect frozen corpses in Uedama.

_Frostpacker treats all permits very seriously!_

I was thinking the corpses have no real use in eve. May be we should make them collectables linked to a kill mail and a playing card like people collect sports card eams

I’m sure a set of aiko alt would sell for some isk

Goon leadership might be fun to have too.

I don’t recall a master anti ganker called @Gix_Firebrand. Want to refresh my memory of his anti ganking prowess?

I spent about a month AGing. Promptly solved ganking. Shared my tips to NEPF, which fell on deaf ears.

I’m well aware AG doesn’t fund itself, hence why you have to build an alliance who does. The thing is, they don’t wanna do the work.

Also I figured out most AG can’t PvP their way out of a paper bag.

They have no idea how to actually hunt other players nor how to construct a pursuit fleet.

They don’t want to learn the pipelines or routes they take. They don’t wanna field bait ops.

Ganking and AGing is a very specialized form of PvP. That is weighted on the side of AG. It allows for specialized fits that would not work outside of HS.

I tried AG. Turns out, it completely sucks because:

1. the people you are trying to protect are AFK and mostly haven’t a clue you saved them from a gank.

2. those that do get ganked pitch a major fit and call you an utter failure at AG because you weren’t there and didn’t save their entitled afk ass.

It’s such a loose loose proposition.

Why? They are too busy being afk to read to forums. Except for like, 3 of them that don’t play the game anymore and use that time to shitpost advocate for the afk carebear instead.

I am inclusive and give them the benefit of doubt too. Besides they tend to post their karen threads about ganking and how it should be nerfed or even removed from the game so surely they read and post on the forums.
