Yes…two of us using a superb Loki fitting, one using a Vargur, and another using a Tornado. Lots of Alpha. I had no idea, before this, what a superb sniping ship the Loki can be.

Am currently training up one of my alts for the Loki…so I can multibox two of them.

So…there is only way to play the game ‘correctly’ and this is over losing ships in PVP?

Are you really such an one dimensional, spoiled and brainwashed PVP ‘interlectual challenged guy’ that you REALLY believe that?

That is sad…really, really sad…

PVP is a 25% MINORITY in this game and was spoiled WAY above the real importance in this game, it’s about TIME that this changes, like it or not this is what happens atm…

I don’t need lecturing to by someone for whom there is zero evidence they have ever even undocked ! Go back to whatever corner of the void hell of irrelevancy you come from.

The question begs to be asked: other than sheer enjoyment/entertainment value, was it profitable between the 4-5 of you? I’m guessing you didn’t lose very often (or at all) - so it was mostly salvaging gank-fit wrecks? (which is totally ok - I’m just trying to put it in perspective of “things you can do to earn an income in EVE”).

You need EVERY lecturing and education because you can get because you are -as i said- interlectual too challenged to even understand what i am talking about…Your main(and only) focus is this strange pew pew that only people of your kind do and that ends here and now…you are an artifact of an era that is gone in this game and the only thing you are allowed to do is ONE thing : RAGEQUIT.

There’s nothing inherently wrong with “pew-pew” in any of its forms (this includes PvE, PvP and inanimate stationary objects). Let’s not derail what has otherwise been an interesting discussion…

Nuh uh…the person who doesn’t understand what you are talking about is you.

You have never undocked. You just post meaningless garbage from the sidelines. The future of EVE is people like me…who generate actual content within the game rather than ignorant blowhards like you who are just irrelevant waffle.

Anyone who’s followed my progress in EVE knows that I am one of the most determined and ambitious people in the game. I’ll still be talked about long after you are forgotten.

all your biting around at people like me only tells me ONE thing : you are pathetic in your fight against needed changes, needed adaptations of the game to the year 2026.

We don’t have 2000 anymore, there are things that NEED to change and there is nothing you can do against it.

The devs have changed and -obviously- they drive the game ona different course as the last and that is unspoiling pvp, something that is long overdue…

Get used to this or take the only exit i’ve shown you…ragequit…

Well…people flying 11.5 bn worth of stuff in a Navy Catalyst adds to my coffers 🙂

Those are not so common though. In any case I have billion and billions ( to quote Carl Sagan ) and am not short of ISK. I’m currently selling off all my old Gnosis ships ( gosh…at one point I had 26 of them between my chars ) as I rarely fly them any more. And I have a huge stash of billions worth of modules at Jita.

Yes, the game will become safer, exordium will be spread out to all of high and this is a GOOD thing for the game…take it or leave…those are the only choices you have, and the only choices you deserve. PVP was spoiled for decades now…it’s about time to put it back into the 25% minority place where it belongs.

Exordium is not the “glowing success” you think it may be, by the very nature of what it **DOESN’T** offer. I have no desire to give up 95% of my income stream and play style in the interest of 100% safety.

Oh no it won’t. I’ll be right there destroying those rare minerals convoys to highsec. A ‘safe’ highsec will be a highsec under siege.

Everyone that i have talked with has no farking clue as to what you are talking about. All say the same thing. That you are either a troll or someone that has zero idea of what you are talking about. As there is no dev or anyone in FC that even would consider this as a good idea.

At this point I have to consider you post one of those times where a person that is trying to be mysterious and acting as though they had more knowledge than anyone else. If this had come from a dev. You would be able to say so. Instead we get to read this tap dance of I know more than you. And i am not telling you. You just lost any creditability. Your post alone proves you are stating an opinion. Trying to rile people up over a false rumor.
