I can assure you, I am absolutely not an alt of James Fuchs. Literally every single person in safety, code and about 2,000 other players can attest to this.

So, it’s ok for all those people to make threads crying about being ganked, using all sorts of slurs, using armchair psychology, attacking the lives of people for playing this game in a different way than themselves, and garner all sorts of support.

However, it’s

to bring up a valid issue regarding killrights? The entire thread is nonsense, because why?

The thread is a claim to unfairness, which can immediately be ruled out by the existence of the killright. It’s open and shut. The post attests only to James’ struggle against reality.

This very statement will now be used in every single thread that is made, from this day forward, regarding all the whining and crying about being ganked.

Those threads are a claim to unfairness, which can immediately be ruled out by the existence of ganking.

If Killrights in their current iteration are perfectly ok, then ganking is perfectly ok, right?

Killrights can be used by anyone, even and probably especially by those not involved in the situation in any way, shape or form, and lasts an entire month.

Miners can be killed by anyone, even and probably especially people not involved in the mining itself. However, a gank does not last an entire month.

Mining ships have an upper limit of cost, without needing to leave highsec. Non-Miner ships have a much higher cieling, making the potential losses far more costly.

You support this glaring lack of balance?

Well, not being a miner myself, I don’t really give two fuchs about their plight, but your argument is flawed nonetheless.

A “ganking” is not the same as a kill right.

A “ganking” is essentially a free radical until it is conducted upon a target, which can be any other ship. It is a choice to target a specific player.

A kill right is not the same, as it is tied to a specific player and only exists as a result of the action explained above. Without the “ganking” the kill right cannot exist.

If you fire the first shot, you start the war, and earn all of your consequences in that moment, which you deserve, regardless of their scope.

Are you being deliberately stupid?

The insults stop when you stop earning them with abject idiocy, and not a second beforehand. If you want respect, you earn it.

Those other threads are not relevant to this discussion, and are not accepted as credible argument; do not deploy them again.

Finally, and I mean finally because you’re a bore:

You are here in this place arguing on behalf of James Fuchs, therefore his argument is yours since you’re carrying his water (which adds weight to the idea that you could be his alt, else why bother?). This means that “I don’t gank” doesn’t wash, as James certainly does.

Goodnight.

oh?

I think you are not capable of any form of intelligence and resort to calling names because you know that you have no argument. That’s kind of pathetic. You should grow up a little before addressing adults.

Oh? According to the three braincells amongst you folks, apparently they are. Now you’re also telling me what I can and can’t do on a public forum? I don’t think so, cupcake.

You just can’t help yourself from being wrong, can you? I am here to argue that balance is necessary in all things. Yet again, you’re just not smart enough to catch what I’m pitching.

> [@Akkar\_Kardashev](#):
>
> therefore his argument is yours

That is not how it works, cupcake. I do not speak for anyone else, and nobody else speaks for me. I am more than capable of speaking for myself. You need to learn how communication works. I would have figured you’d have learned at least something about that in any level of school. Did you drop out or something?

> [@Akkar\_Kardashev](#):

Listen, Alex Jones, that’s not how it works. Every single person is capable of having their own opinions. I am a former miner that has spent Years teaching and assisting miners, that simply refused to learn. I stopped, as I was actually a fool for that. They refuse to adapt, they refuse reality, they refuse that they do not get to dictate how other people play.

> [@Akkar\_Kardashev](#):

Maybe because some people think balance is a good thing, yeah? Never even crossed your mind, did it? Maybe ask for one of those 3 braincells back before you engage me.

Except, something you’re clearly not capable of spending any thought or action on, you’ll see that I infact, do not gank.

Infact, I have been ganked. Guess what I didn’t do. Take a moment, I know thoughts are hard.

Ok, fine, I’ll tell you. I didn’t make a rage post whining about it and using armchair psychology and fictional life situations as excuses to my inability to control my own emotions over an insignificant loss in a video game.

You really do like looking stupid, huh?

It doesnt work like having experience with individuals projecting, calling names, and using armchair psychology to throw whatever worst case scenario that can be thought of at someone you don’t know how to engage, or oh god, so much worse, just being wrong about anything at all?

For someone as experienced at being an internet argument enjoyer as you claim, you’re not particularly good at it. Very reactive. Prone to spinning out and becoming hysterical, which are common traits among the stupid.

It is you who will flag all my posts, you claiming I will do it is just you telling me you will. Classic.
