Therefore, waiting for them to form a majority view to move their governmental apparatus to address such matters as pay equity, social egalitarianism, pollution, street violence, and gun proliferation along with continual warfare, famine, pestilence and privation is an exercise in futility. How can a species that cannot comprehend evolution evolve in its thinking? Simple.
Of course, there are exceptions, and you know who you are. The simple fact is, we are not the majority so we are powerless to get the governmental apparatus to even acknowledge that such things as above stated even exist, much less move them to try to do something about them. D'Toqueville called this the "tyranny of mediocrity" since the majority of people are mediocre, and this is a "majority rules" environment.
By extension, I've learned not to wait around expecting the vast majority of the population (which also reads on the eighth grade level) to suddenly SEE THE LIGHT of understanding, and HEAR the call to action! Ain't gonna happen.
Thanks for asking. I've just learned that EVE has a population of morally superior pricks who seem to think their bullshit should matter to people who come here to game. Your politics are meaingless here... Go snivel at a pep rally... Yay! Another one proves my point! This is too easy. I have sworn upon the altar of God eternal hostility toward every form of tyranny over the mind of man.-á |

Interesting.
I convo the bear. He rejects my convo. I email the bear. He ignores it. I send the bear a fleet invite. He rejects it and blocks me.
Then in local he says 'stop inviting me I'm not falling for that...' and 'if I join fleet you can shoot me...", also tipping off the suspect someone was trying to get a warp in on him...
This happened to me not too long ago. I tried inviting a missioner to fleet, who was crying in local about a flashy yellow in his mission. "Lol, fleet invite, like I'm going to fall for that!" he said in local. Tipping off the suspect. So then I private convo him and seem to convince him that I'm not and alt of the suspect and I am actually just trying to help. He informs me that if I were to shoot the suspect then the suspect will just warp all his friends/alts in to kill me. Apparently people still have no clue how the aggression mechanics work. |

I learned that CCP has already forgotten the lesson of Incarna.
They tried to push the idea of micro-transactions, EVE store and vanity items on us, and we rebelled.
Apparently, they're still at it, trying to convince people that clothing items and do-nothing alternative ship skins have some value.
CCP needs to be convinced once and for all that we're not going to take it! Where is all the post Incarna hate and rage over CCP's continued pushing of vanity items? |

That is actually the default hotkey to tell any drone to engage. I reset that hotkey to something more intuitive to me. Ctrl-E for engage, which goes with the Ctr-R that I use for return to bay. |

It is not that we are unable to comprehend.
It is that a large protion of the population is unwilling to comprehend.
People tend to accept as true: 1) the thing that is in their best interest if it were true. 2) the thing that makes the best "story" if it were true.
Accepting evolution, removes the need for God, which in turn removes the probability of heaven and eternal life. What? I don't get eternal life and I don't have an all powrful freind in teh sky watching over me? F that. I vote evolution is false, and vote for "God did it".
We need revolution in thought, not evolution in intelligence. |

You're making the assumption nerfing highsec will be the eve version of the rapture and that all the highsec pubbies will be carried up in a big tube of glowing light to a spaceship MMO paradise where no bad people will ever violence their paper thin bling fit hulk again. These people are present in such numbers that EVE dies a horrible death.
Okay back in reality it would mean balancing things according to risk : reward. I don't really care if someone wants to live in highsec I want balance. If something is going to be very safe it shouldn't be very rewarding and it should never outstrip the riskier same activity in nullsec, you can extrapolate this to all highsec activities.

F#$ing carebears. Even when you try to help them (instead of shoot them in the face), they will find a way to F##$) it up.
What I learned? Don't help carebears, ever, just stick to the regular scheduled program of shooting them in the face. Shoulda known.

Yes, because Eve players are taught from the get go that all strangers are friendly and you should definitely get in their van for candy if they tell you to, because Eve strangers are the bestest strangers in the world who would never touch you in the places your bathing suit covers.

According to reality, more ships are blown up in high sec than null sec. Using reality as the baseline, it's apparent that while potential risk exists in a higher volume in null sec, the actual risk is within high sec where the majority of explosions take place.
According to you, since null sec is in fact "safer" as demonstrated by the reality of less ships exploding in null sec compared to high sec, that rewards should be greater in high sec than null. Proof of lying in thread.

I've learned when selling a lets say a hundred items of something and you enter one of the lower selling isk bids because the higher order doesn't have to volume to absorb your sale totally, you will still sell to those more expensive orders first before it sells to the lower sale bids. |

You assume null has higher risk than high sec. I have lost more barges and exhumers in high sec to gankers than I'e lost in null.
Perhaps I should have started by asking, how do you propose to nerf high sec.
And then I'll ask... wht % of high sec carebears do you suspect fund their acounts on PLEX. Would you expect PLEX prices to fall to the new, reduced profitability of high sec?
The only thing I know about high sec carebears, is they will NEVER accept a play style that makes them easy kills for PvPers.
So, maybe you can lure the to null, IF you keep null safe with local, intel channels, the ability to safe up whenever a non-clue gets within 5 or 6 jumps.
Of course, we also have to so something about the biggest bat to the head of null sec profitability, the cloaky camper, that ruins profitability, because we're never going to unsock or leave the POS as long as there is a risk. |

I don't assume I know its more risky in nullsec. Do bombs exist in highsec? Do bubbles exist in highsec? Can you be locked out of a station in highsec? Are you able to be shot without consequence at all times in highsec? Can you be DDed in highsec? Can a cyno be lit in highsec?
Adapt or die has been a way of life in EVE and I expect all of those people will do one or the other.

I know that, i wanted to see you post it. Tippia beat me to the punch on demonstrating why you (as usual) are basically wrong about something (in this case risk vs reward, unless you are a noob flying a free CONDOR, high sec is many time safer than the rest of eve space. If you knew more about the game, or at least were more willing to listen rather than talk, you would not be wrong so much.
Wormhole space is the most dangerous per capita (with null in second). Null sec is the most dangerous (in terms of pvp and real ships) in terms of total kills, isk cost and size of ships killed (followed closely by low sec). The one constant in all of this is that high sec is safer by every measure UNLESS you are a new player in a free NPC generated ship like the Condor lol.
