I do get annoyed by the arguments....from both sides to be honest. I can understand 'carebears' getting peeved by losing hulks when just minding their own business....as I have in the past.
I also get annoyed at the attitude of others who seem to think that the game is solely PvP and they have the right to do what they want. But more so the palygroung bully approach of some on the forums. I also have respect for others who put forward intelligent and thoughtful posts. I have to say that I agree with something Floppy said (apologise for paraphrasing but cba to scroll  ) The rules are the rules some are rubbish (yeah neutrall RR is a pain for one) and both 'sides' live with it, gankers do get hacked off with changes (orca, boomerang et al) but then say **** it.....what else can we do...they innovate. What do miners do....they whine  . I would not welcome high sec becoming completely safe. It would kill a lot of the aspects of the game and high sec war decs, ganking and generally arseyness are part of what makes Eve the sandbox it is, most of those things can be annoying but if you look at what you can get out of it you can have a laugh. I hate to say it but if you want completely safe gameplay there are lots of choices out there.
Saying that, in my current corp we have a guy who actually looks forward to hulkageddon and dusts of his Hulk.....not sure of his kill tally but he got a Talos the other day - oh and it was fitted with 4 T2 mag stabs....so decent DPS. His KB stats get hilarious during this event and why? Because he fits a decent tank,fits the ship to survive multiple ganks at once and then sets his drones on the ganker, getting the KM. You know, if all miners could even be bothered to try half of what he does the event would fail.....whining on here and then mining fit for maximum yield.....well I have no sympathy 
And I am a 'carebear' , I mine , mission invent and build....I also go on roams occasionally with the corp into low sec for the laughs - well they laugh at how crap I am.....so FFS stop whining and do something positive, or stay docked, mine in 1.0 or change trade! |
