Def Antares	Posted - 2004.08.26 09:53:00 - [31] Originally by: shwarzkauph eve pirates kills ppl for no reason. They dont request ransom or steal stuff like real pirates would. They kill ppl and get their satifaction from the death of someone else. how is it fun to sit at a gate for hours and hours and ambush ppl who cannot fight you back? I was playing my 3 day old alt and I was in a shuttle. Shuttle have no weapons, no nothing that you could profit from. WHy attack me? I would like any rat to explain why they consider this fun. Im just curious. "whine"

Im just curious. There are many player pirates that do this to others. I once had a character (not this one) that got shot down in a rookie ship and he was only 20minutes old... not even enough time to train a skill. I roleplay... there is this computer game called "Earth - The First Genesis" where i play a character in the early 21st century.

Bhaal	Posted - 2004.08.26 10:59:00 - [35] Edited by: Bhaal on 26/08/2004 11:05:18 I've come to the realization that most pirates in EVE are the same type of PK'ers that ruin many other on-line games. Those are the players that basically make the DEV's pull their hair out trying to combat cheaters... Every on-line game suffers from these types of players. A small minority of players who ruin the game for all players. For some reason, I believe they need to feel as though they are "beating the system" and damaging the fun factor for "carebears". In RL, quite possibly could be socially defficient in some manner, don't have a spine, so they try to bring themselves up in RL by taking others down in a virtual one... Every MMO will suffer from these game-killers. The DEV's of future MMO's just have to learn to make their games more griefer-proof if they want them to be more successful than EVE. EVE is a great game, but not half the game it could be if the DEV's did not have to waste so much time worrying about combating these scumbags... Not all pirates in EVE are like this, but I'd venture to guess 75% or more of them are. Pimply faced geeks who sit in the dark basement of their parents house who have no hope of ever getting laid... ------------------------------------------------ "for piece sakes!"

Harry Voyager	Posted - 2004.08.26 11:01:00 - [37] 20 minutes is still enough time for a character to be able to log onto Team Speak, and start rattlign off Fleet compositions. Which is why people pop newbie ships in unsecure space. Harry Voyager

I'm not a pirate, but I find comments like this (and there's plenty of em on this forum) REALLY, REALLY ignorant. How many player pirates have you actually SEEN? How do you know that they're all (or that most of them are) pimply-faced and live in their parents' basement? By what telepathic powers are you privy to their love lives? Enlighten me, please. Also, I'm curious as to the basis of your 75% figure. How did you come up with that? "The long and short of it is that this game, or any game, is either going to be a kindergarten where it's safe and cuddly and secure and you can play with plush tigers, or it will be a harsh place, harsh but interesting and interesting because harsh, where you must take risks to succeed and so must everyone, since victory is tasteless without danger." - Raivn Akhama

It seems you're RL "skills" do not translate very well to mmorpg games... Seems I'm a better judge of mmorpg characters and it looks like I've found the a-hole of today. Ohhhh and how do you "watch them type"? You some kinda a reclusive voyeur with an obsession for webcams that lives in his parents basement and has spotty skin issues?

Anatolius	Posted - 2004.08.26 11:16:00 - [53] Originally by: Riddari Grim facts, out of game scope but clearly show that pirates are not the equivilant of toll booths. \o/ Be sure to look into Greek and Turkish piracy as well, for even more good old fashioned death upon the high seas. Everyone always forgets that the Carribean is only a relatively small bit o' th' world. --- Having recently acquired a lab slot (thank you, rental bug), I wholeheartily concur, there's absolutely no problem with lab slots!

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??? ------------------------------------------------ "for piece sakes!"
