not an alt. sigh.

also food for thought:

_As Jennifer Joy Freyd notes in her overview of the concept, Professor John Potter explicitly warns in his essay, DARVO: Narrative and Counter-Narrative in Conflict Escalation, that the popularity of the term introduces risks. Potter highlights that once a concept like DARVO (Deny, Attack, Reverse Victim and Offender) becomes common knowledge, it can be wielded as a rhetorical weapon, noteably in the following ways:

_ **Unfairly: To quickly silence someone else’s legitimate perspective or defense by painting them as an abuser.** _

slow down a bit please. This is not that serious.

Tessa, I am sorry you feel this way. If you would look, I have just recently been really “Active” in these forums.

I may disagree with you on aspects about this video game, but I don’t mean you any kinda ill will.

If you would like to talk one on one, in a private setting, I will. I really don’t see the need for this much anger.

I guess because of game mechanics? Well that may not be the right word, how about Eve’s belief of rules and whatnot or looked through a “Lore” scope?

High security, from what I understand, means security in the area/system is abundant or especially on guard. Or looking at it another way, a place where there is a sizable and proactive security force. Some place like the “wealthy” parts of a city.

A negative 10 security status means the worst status you could have with the security faction. you are basically Bad guy #1 on all the Security’s list

If both of these are true, then they cannot co exist in the same place.

Have you given any thought to what the game lore actually is? We are in New Eden, a dsytopian region, controlled by corrupt violent regimes. Where in this lore did you come to the naive belief that you are safe?

I have positive standings with the Caldari Navy and the various royal families of Amarr and Great Khanid beyond. I am even welcome in the Gallente Federation, where I have become something of a celebrity holostar.

Understandable, then why is there a classification of the various security status of systems. How you make it out to be, then ALL of this game should be Null Sec. Why is it not then?

correct me if I am wrong, but that has nothing to do with security status, no?

and if you choose to act that you have some say as to how the game functions because you are you. this explains your reluctance.

Good luck to you as well, capsuleer.

This is just the time it takes for CONCORD to punish criminals, that’s it. We as capsuleers are allowed to do some terrible things…even something as seemingly innocuous as Planetary Industry causes mass death, especially in the more populated systems of High Sec. [Xenocracy | EVE Universe](https://universe.eveonline.com/chronicles/xenocracy)

The SOE and even our own mission agents regularly tell us how horrible we are and the amount of deaths we cause. You’re lack of reading is not an excuse to think that this universe we play in is anything but dystopian.

This is correct. I permit some to mine, and others are denied the opportunity to mine. It is ultimately my prerogative.

that is disgusting.

In that case, If thats how “the average capsuleer” acts and whatnot and is treated in Lore

Then CCP should make everything with no Security status. I will no longer use Lore any longer.

But we both know CCP will not.
