Now you’re just insulting your own intelligence. I don’t push anyone away, they choose to leave themselves. I actually do everything I can to help them learn how to push on and keep playing the game, and they still choose to leave themselves. And when they do, despite my best efforts, I have absolutely ZERO concern for that, because the game is demonstrably not for them. And this has nothing to do with playstyle. I’ve taught miners, missioners, and all kinds of players how to keep doing what they want to do in the midst of a war. I teach them they have options, that they can fight the war, and how, or that they can avoid having to fight anyone, and how. Regardless, people are going to quit, and it’s because the game just isn’t for them in any capacity.
No, I don’t do anything to people because they don’t conform to my playstyle, and nothing I said indicates that at all. You made that interpretation. Whether it’s because you want to see me a certain way or you’re just a bit slow, it doesn’t really matter. Let’s try, in future, to read before putting foot to mouth.
All of those, all of them, are self imposed restrictions.
Don’t want to partake in a war? Then drop corp.
Don’t want to drop corp? Boo hoo. You can’t have your cake and eat it too. It’s not the wardec that is forcing you to stay in corp.
And for the record, anyone can look up Honk Squad and see they are a high sec corp. They go on adventures elsewhere, sure, but their activity is primarily high sec. Their original adventures into lowsec that brought them into conflict with me were made without comprehending the increased risk. They were already going into lowsec, sure, but not because they knew what they were doing, but the exact opposite. I’m not going to explain this to you again.
There is a natural order of things both in life and Eve Online. There’s a food chain that from bottom to top seems to work well. If you don’t like where you’re at on the food chain, then change it. Learning is hard, and it can probably be even harder when you have no desire to fire upon another player in the game.
What you HAVE to understand is that the very nature of this game pushes PVP in your face. You have to learn to deal with it in whichever way you see fit. The awesome thing about not crying about the game, and instead digging in to improve yourself is that you can learn so many awesome things.
Take this upcoming patch announcement for example. I am at a point where when a change is announced and discussed, I’m thinking about how I can abuse, bend, and use these changes to accomplish a goal of mine. The same applies to you scared little space-noobies as well. Learn to think critically and overcome. Then and only then will you find more fun in playing eve rather than whining on the forums for papa CCP to listen to you on your soapbox.
Can this please be the last time I say this? Can this reply be like stickied at the top of every sub-forum here? How does that work? Do I ping @CCP_Falcon for such a request?
Sometimes the best solution to a problem is to take a vacation from it. Think I’ll take my own advice here. Trying to promote that a vacation is better than quitting eve in full appears to be a mistake. Flaw of when always play or never play are the only tabled options.
I can agree with that @MinerArt if you feel you need a breather, do just that. Maybe go play on a alt somewhere - try exploration in Nullsec, scamming in Jita, or anything else.
The important thing to accomplish when you take these breaks is that when you go back that you are better prepared and more knowledgeable than before. Repeating the same mistakes expecting a different outcome is silly. Obtaining knowledge is a constant fight that everyone that plays this game has to lace up for. Just don’t be the guy crying about having to overcome obstacles and adversity like you’re a special snowflake, when tons of other before you have had to do just that - Adapt or die!
Can you take your character, fly half a dozen jumps to a pre-staged backup staging station, and continue relatively normal operations without excess danger? Yes.
Wardecs aren’t the problem. People like you, who limit themselves and teach others those limits, are the problem.
But they can’t tell you, because that would break the agreement they have with CCP, right? So it does not matter at all…Or what do you mean with that?!
Can’t tell who? The person being flagged, or the person doing the flagging? Because they will definitely tell the person doing the flagging to knock it off if they’re breaking the rules.
Can’t tell Remiel_Pollard! or he would wardec the flaggers… I think wardecs should have an infobox where players must type some sort of story behind the war just to add credibility and not just spam it all around. The more immersive the more fun!
I am not Dom. I am also not Ian Black. I would add a picture but it would be reported and get me sanctioned.
They could add “This war is a perpetual, mutual war between the red heroes versus the evil blue ennemies.” That wasn’t so hard is it? The number of War declarations are shown on the ccp website and it would be bad for player retention if they are told a week in it’s just mass wardeccing.
Yes, you are. I caught you red-handed posting on the wrong character.
Who is going to review that their war-dec reason is sufficient?
Are you seriously suggesting in order to wardec, someone has to waste time to enter the letter A repeatedly for however number of character fields are required for the wardec activation?
or he would wardec the flaggers… I think wardecs should have an infobox where players must type some sort of story behind the war just to add credibility and not just spam it all around. The more immersive the more fun!
