I’m not even sure, was this supposed to be her a-ha gotcha moment or something?

That if people state they don’t care about the temper tantrum of adult age children minded people then they will admit they are evil in real-life or something?

Because if this is her great argument then every parent in the world and every human being is “evil” if they ever not obeyed the hurt feelings of a child or any age human, no matter how unfounded, entitled, unwarranted, over the top, selfish, or outright evil it was.

That if someone’s feelings are hurt then the other party must immediately accommodate any and every demand they have no matter what?

And all this with a straight face too.

While in reality all can see the absurdity of her claim and the ridiculousness of what she implies.

:thinking:

Speaking of which a related tidbit:

Wonder what the Frostpacker entity might say about this. :eyes:

And the point 99% of everyone else is making is that that is a THEM issue…not a game issue.

I get emotionally hurt by having to respond to such utter tripe.

Only because they can move all their blubber around in a Bowhead.

You don’t get the billion isk until you hit 100 likes.

Why a Bowhead?

Most people who quit from high sec gank simply reason it’s not worth investing more time into Eve, because you can lose a lot of it just by undocking, and being unlucky. At chess, you can just play another game. Nothing lost except a little bit of ego.

It was the case to someone on the Eve discord, just a few days ago, who lost a new industrial ship, empty, to someone who wanted to play “lootboxes”, and destroyed him.
He could have done nothing. He simply quit the game and moved on to something else.

“The game is not for you” is the thing failed game developpers keep saying on X, and so, no one buys their game. Is this mechanic really well implemented?

I thnk stealing loot from a can of a criminally destroyed player should simply trigger concord.
Logical, Simple fix.

I think a big problem with this game is the market. Industrial ships are super expensive while mining yields almost no income. And buying an Athanor for moon mining is just ridiculous. Meanwhile, a Gila is dirt cheap and can run Abyss sites yielding some of the best profits in the game.

So when those that mine lose one of those mining barges, it can indeed be frustrating.

My RL friend quit over getting a ship blown up going to jita, said before i started in 2011 you couldn’t attack others in hisec


Enjoy the video Game while theirs no decision yet. All things have an end. Eve-Online as you know it may end anytime.

I read it. Your chest beating “look at me I’m so great, I have a score” was irrelevant.

Actually it is an option. though this is about the best that it gets..

Though body odor is thankfully not.. At the same time the way tech is going.. and I understand the South Koreans have experimented with smell and scents through the comp. It may happen one fine day too.

Poor you and stull not getting it.. His ridiculous premise is just that.

Winning?? I am not winning anything here.. In fact all I am doing is constantly pointing out what a ridiculous premise this whole thing is.. Someone having a sad over the loss of 1’s and 0’s is having a maturity problem. That is a them problem. Not an everyone else problem. And hey, welcome alt 45 glad you could make it. SMH

LOL Tell me you have no understanding on how to make something pay for itself . Without tell me you do not know how to make something pay for itself. My retriever has paid for itself a dozen times over.

If I get ganked or step away and it gets blown out of the sky. Well these do happen.. And I will get a new one. As my old one has paid for it a dozen times over. Frustration? Just frustration that i was not as quick as I should have been or should have docked up instead of being lazy and playing the odds.

The old saying goes ‘Play stupid games, win stupid prizes.’

Naw it all it really means is that PA may sell or may not. If it does. As CCP did have a good year. At this point I see no reason why a new company would shut it down. Though some changes would occur as it such things do in a sale. In general shutting down the newly bought IP is not what happens.

Undocking is SO dangerous…that I can undock and sit literally right outside Jita station for 2 hours without once being yellow boxed.

It’s people who undock with 26bn ISK in an Ibis that find it ‘dangerous’…lol.

Ganking is great while I don’t do it it’s a great resource sink plus semi isk sink due to the tax you pay when buying a new ship to replace the lost one.

In any game that i have played in the last 15 years. There is always someone that rage quits for reasons. Most of the time it is a game they had an expectation of it being. Found out that it wasn’t the game they had stuck in their head.

The game is pretty clear about what to expect. Aura does explain among other things that you are on relatively safe in highsec. Somehow that translates for some people as being completely safe.

If one can not get past the game mechanic that is intrinsic to the game. Then yes, it is a game that is not for that person. Ships getting blown up happens all the time. Again any one that cares to go Zkillboard can see it happen practically every minute. Mostly in low and Nullsec. But more than a few in Highsec. So yes if a player is having trouble and can not get past the fact that any ship can be blown out of the sky. Then perhaps the game is not for that person. As it is. If a player is in the game and having a sad over a bunch of pixels. That is more of a maturity problem. Than anything else.

Though as an aside I have noted that people that have a problem with a game mechanic. In general are really pushing for the game to be just another vanilla MMO. SMH
