What exactly is "half of a maximum IQ"?
It also might help if you could spell intelligent, but I dare say you probably share the vacant stare of your avatar and insinuate that you more than likely are vacant in other departments as well. |

Perhaps nullsec should become even remotely accessible? Not this crap we have now, either you have to be a member of a trashy forum for 3 months or have 50 million SP... If you guys want people to come out, you sure don't act like it. My point was that nullsec is awesome.
There are many nullsec corps which have no skillpoint or forums requirements. My corp, for example. Of course, considering the substantial assets nullsec alliances routinely sling around, you may find the application process somewhat more rigorous compared to most afk/no teamwork/don't really do anything hisec corps. Feel free to join our public channel if genuinely interested. |

Yay, sure the 350 people CCP has hired since then will think exaclty the same about CCP losing the income that justifies their paychecks... I'm sure those people look at their subscription numbers, not what forum clowns think. Why? Because those numbers show an increase where all other MMOs are shedding subscribers. But, according to your kind, CCP ought to make the game more like the themepark MMOs that are losing subscribers? Okay.

If you are ganking to a budget, you need to figure out how to achieve your goals within the budget. If you want to gank with T2 fit catalysts, you need to seek a source of funding other than the Goonswarm bounties. You can't go ganking with T2 fit catalysts and then complain that you run out of money, hoping people will take pity on you.
Complaining that the second account isn't free doesn't make sense: you're not ganking for the income to buy a PLEX. You've already paid those accounts using other means otherwise you'd be doing something far more profitable than farming Goonswarm bounties.
Bottom line is: either you're ganking with a limited wallet and you need to adjust your tactics to cost you less than 10M ISK per kill, or you've got a sugar daddy (possibly your main) who doesn't care about the ISK cost. If you have a sugar daddy, go ahead and use T2 blaster catalysts, solo ganking hulks in 0.7.

You are not a ganker, try to limit what you say to what you know.
A follow on benefit of this is that you'll post far far less, which means less effort for you and less effort for people when they have to scroll past your posts. |

Rubbish. We take willing people with far less skill. It's all about attitude not skill-points. A rifter with a point in the hands of a gutsy player will do far more damage than a 100M sp player in a shiny multi-billion isk T3 ship that warps away to a safe-spot at the first sign of trouble. You're just making stuff up to justify your lack of even trying to look for a way to nullsec. |

Hulkageddon will end like always, miners will return like always and they will see their ships slowly strengthen patch by patch just like before. I couldn't even begin to try and explain how insignificant this anti-highsec effort will be in the end. No one cares about the quaint efforts of a minority when an overwhelming amount of players are engaged in safe high sec industry-related tasks.
I just hope that the people trying stir the pot will not get disheartened when they come to this realization, since I hate to lose customers. After all, these events are what makes Eve so great. Even as a miner, I wouldn't want to do away with Hulkageddon. It would be like drinking coffee without sugar. =) |

Why would someone need to justify their lack of trying to look for a way to nullsec?
Does it mean that this open ended sandbox in reality is MEANT to be played as somebody decided to? So is EvE a themepark like WoW, with the difference it's peer pressure and racketing that force other people going where they "are meant to go"?

The funniest thing about the OP's idiotic post is that all through this so-called "Whatever-Geddon" , my several mining characters have been grinding away in highsec belts and selling the perfectly-skilled refined residue at premium prices. In all this time, we have yet to even see a ganker, much less lose a ship. So please do continue your efforts as the only result I have seen yet is increased income.

I'm gonna share with you a secret of life: you can do things even if you don't really like them.
FAi, i don't like taking the bus every day. But then, I like having a job, and wouldn't have it without taking the bus every day. Of course, i could buy a car and drive it to my job every day, but then i would like that even less than taking the bus, so i don't do it.
It's about incentives. One month ago my subscription was cancelled and about to expire, now i am having a modicum of fun mining in a BS, and so i paid one month of subscription.
This doesn't changes that I wouldn't mind to see EVE crumble to dust if i found an alternative i enjoyed better and which suited more to my philosophy of life... not that I want EVE to fail, but, wouldn't cry over it as long as I had an alternative.
And, IMXHO, i think that people would really like better a game more suit to my philoosphy of life, than they like EVE. I mean, sane people at least... EVE residents: 5% WH; 8% Lowsec; 15% Nullsec; 72% Highsec. CSM 7: 1 highsec resident out of 14.-á

I never saw anything quite that elaborate but was part of the gate camps when someone found a grav plex in a dead end system. 15 hulks and a Rorqual would have it mopped up in an hr or so. The thing I saw with all those cases, the minerals all ended up in Jita and as much as they made a substantial amount of ISK for the hr it took, they weren't a valid percentage of what came in to Jita and it didn't happen enough to feed the market essential production of EVE.
I have also never saw a developed null sec market that could in fact ignore Jita or high sec. One based on minerals and moon mats, not based on Jita resales. One designed to actually promote production in null sec. The reasons being simple ISK. It has always been cheaper to buy than to make and sec status and supply have never played a factor in to the process. It was just one of those broken and mysterious anomalies of EVE.

Serious question: why should any nullsec organisation respect industrialists when there's always another one who'll sell for slightly less? Malcanis' Law: Any proposal justified on the basis that "it will benefit new players" is invariably to the greater advantage of older, richer players.

It's available from the EVE map. Learn what the Industry development index actually means. If a system stays at Industry 5 all week it's a pretty safe bet there is a lot of mining going on there. |

That seems to be the impression I got from the GP. Honestly I think care-bears should stay in empire, but GP deserved some sort of reply.
It really doesn't matter to me how people choose to play their game. I do however have much more fun in null than anywhere else in EVE. |

Terrorism would be when people aren't mining due to the fear of gankers being out there. It would be terrorism if, six months down the track, people refused to undock in a Hulk for fear of being ganked.
What we have is a riot on the streets, not terrorism. The riot is fuelled by a public competition with awards to people who inflict the most damage.
