Maud Dib	Posted - 2004.08.26 12:42:00 - [1] Originally by: Bhaal Quote: You some kinda a reclusive voyeur with an obsession for webcams that lives in his parents basement and has spotty skin issues? Actually, no... I'm a very good looking successful 31 year old with a beautiful, big titted blonde GF, and we have lots of sex. I just try and sit down and have a little fun with EVE now & again, and try to avoid your kind... Pirates, PK'ers, whatever... Can try to substantiate their existence in EVE any way they like. Chances are, I'm not gonna buy it, and will see right through it... You can't fool me... Your EVE colleagues are typically going to come from the socially inept class in RL, and those RL deficiencies manifest themselves in games such as EVE as PK'ing and the like as a big green neon sign... Very easy to spot. I watch people type in the chat channels... Where else??? You know for someone who believes they know a great deal about human behavior you don't seem very worried that you are the kind of person who has to state unprovable "facts" to make themselves appear more impressive to a group of people you have never met. Who or what you are in RL is unimportant. The only things that matters here is what you are in EVE. You are a person who had moaned about greifers all the time even when you had no first hand information on the subject then had a tantrum and quit. Also since you have stated you are going to gang around and complain until all the pirates are gone isn't that greifing and harassment?

Maud Dib	Posted - 2004.08.26 12:54:00 - [3] Originally by: Joshua Calvert I think we should declare war on Merchant Marines and grief Bhaal out of the game. OMG We could make it an EVE event. Get corps to sponsor prizes. First podding, second podding, third podding, most poddings over 24 hours, most poddings over a week. Great idea Josh. Though I have to say Femintaki of Merchant Marines is a great person so maybe just kill Bhaal?

Maud Dib	Posted - 2004.08.26 15:45:00 - [5] The real issue is that some people can't handle being beaten (as they see it) by another human being. If you beat them you must have cheated somehow. They can lose ships all day long to NPC becuse thats "the game" and it's ok if it's hard to beat the "game'. Losing to another player for some reason hits them in the ego. I have a friend who feels like this. W ehave had many conversations about at and sadly he feels lame because he thinks like this but he can't shake himself out of it. Myself I would rather be killed by a thinking, planning PC than a stupid NPC any day. I would feel stupid if I lost to an NPC.

Maud Dib	Posted - 2004.08.26 16:07:00 - [7] Oh yeah one more thing. I love how some people love to talk about pirate exploits. Jet can mining is and will always be the most used exploit in the game but rarely do you see threads with people talking about banning miners for greifing. Oh yeah don't forget the mining agent exploit. Or the agent runners Zor exploit. Really the only person I see who wants to totally destroy another groups playing style is the guy calling pirates greifers.

LOL, I love you too man... I will admit, my posts do have a certain flare to them, but I'm betting there are many who agree with me who feel no need to speak up, as they fear of being gannked in-game because of thier veiws... That doesn't make any sense. If they agree with you then they think pirates are greifers and so they are going to be ganked on sight. Since they are going to be ganked anyway( if they agree with you) then they are free to say whatever they want since it won't effect how they are treated either way. The only greifer here in this thread is you.

Maud Dib	Posted - 2004.08.26 18:28:00 - [11] Originally by: Bhaal Ok, I'm done with this thread... Somewhere along the line it was hijacked and turned into a ****ing contest... My views about pirating are quite apparent and have been since day 1... You guys just keep defending those game mechanics exploits like you always have, and always will, and I'll keep enjoying the pirate whinnage when CCP finally takes them away from you... I guess this is a never ending MMO cycle... Nobody defended game mechanics exploits. You made that up. You made that up because when it comes down to it you don't like pirates and thats the only thing you care about.
