I’m amazed that you are the one saying this now, and that you posted a thread of your own complaining about the loss of your Frigate fit Battleship after you attacked a veteran player expecting to win because your ship was bigger:

Haste move, and I’m sitting in my BATTLESHIP Fully armed with 6 -200mm AutoCannons and 1 dual Anode Particle Stream. Fusion ammo. Again, my Apocalypse BATTLESHIP, I scan the Pilot and see a Vexor who is half damaged, So I lock on. Trying to stop the “picking on noobs so that New Eden can make it past 2019”… This is 7K HP vs 1…

When at the start of this very thread you said:

> I’m very busy writing Nintendo telling them everything I dislike about the NES game Super Mario Bros. Oh wait, I’m a gamer… Meaning I play games and I have zero input in the creation, updating or flow. I’m here to play the Game

and you also said:

> I’m SO sick of gamers thinking they know what is best or complaining about a loot box or a map, or content. Play the game, that’s it.

You are the same person who in the above link asks for the game to change so that he can win as a noob against people with better skills and better fits? Someone who is now refusing to accept the game the way it is?

All it took was a Battleship loss and you abandoned your prinicipals and completely reversed your stand on gamers and gaming?

wow 🙄
