Hey, you promised you were leaving.

The world is NIGHTWALKING INTO TYRANNY, right?

Let us know when you make your new spam alt.

@Ax_l_Thorne hi there.  
Since my response wasn’t appreciated by our Speech Masters, let’s see if I can revise my reply.

> Ganking is, or is not, an important aspect to the game.

Yes, sir it definitely is.

> [@Ax\_l\_Thorne](#):
>
> Ganking is, or is not, an acceptable play style

It’s the only playstyle as far as I’m concerned.

> [@Ax\_l\_Thorne](#):
>
> Ganking is, or is not, a core game play mechanic

Yes, siree, it’s more than core play mechanic, it is the “only” viable mechanic.

> [@Ax\_l\_Thorne](#):
>
> Of course most of this applies to High Sec, but we’re starting to see an influx of low sec kills that are irritating people who are not “active in faction warfare.”

Where are these apostates? They should get banned for suggesting that PvP in Low should only be for FW. Banned and reported to their local authorities for Bad Form.

> [@Ax\_l\_Thorne](#):
>
> So should pvp be removed from lowsec and only reserved for those signed up in the militias?

No.  
**PvE** should be removed entirely from the game.

Hello forum

That’s an idea worth considering.  
Maybe it should be on the next CSM/CCP meeting agenda.

This is a Forum for free exchange of ideas, you can’t just blather out whatever you want, you know.

I find most of the AGers here don’t understand PvP or what makes you a good PvPer.

A good PvPer never not dies. That is foolishness. Good PvPers win and lose all the time.

He’s spiraling. It’s his pattern.

I dunno if I should be proud or sad that I can predict by now LOL.

I saw your original post. It was buried in with a bunch of other inappropriate posts. Drew did a mass wipe and yours (along with a few others) got caught up in it.

I also saw the post you deleted.

I don’t hold conversations with whiny victims. When you’re ready to powerfully communicate your thoughts and opinions let me know.

…you must have a pretty big chip on your shoulder.

You can reply of course but I’m done with you.
