Proposal
- EVE players continue to destroy your ships and pod you at every opportunity.
I eagerly await your considered response. |

I would like to thank the OP for making this thread.
He has proven the point I have been trying to make for some time now:
Highsec miners like the OP want their hulks to be absolutely invincible in highsec, even if they put no tanking modules on their ships whatsoever. They want to ban anti-mining activity like Hulkageddon. They literally want CCP to stop you from shooting at their ships, because they think they are entitled to mine in total peace and security.
This is the enemy we are fighting. |

I wholeheartedly support the actions being taken against you, and I congratulate Kaeda Maxwell for destroying your mining vessel. I think Kaeda Maxwell deserves particular credit for killing your pod. Most highsec gankers are unable to kill the pods which, as we see in your case, often hold very valuable implants.
If you are genuinely interested in learning why you are the enemy, and why you need to cease your mining activity, I invite you to read this quick post I wrote on the topic, which explains everything.
Regardless, I wish you the best, unless you continue to mine in highsec in which case I wish you unending destruction (no offense).  |

Oddball Six wrote:My position is that high sec should be as it is today, just with a touch more protection You are afflicted by the "one more nerf" disease. Why weren't all of the previous nerfs to ganking enough? Because you don't want your ship to be destroyed, even if you fail-fit it.
Quote:[]....to ensure it remains a "more safe" area in the face of new gank-fests and player organized competitions like hulkageddon. You think it's against the EULA to do Hulkageddon. Player-organized events like Hulkageddon are a primary draw of EVE. And you want to ban people from doing them.
Mining, for obvious reasons, does not and cannot take priority. |

Kaeda Maxwell wrote:(words)
Well said. What you described is emergent gameplay at its finest, overcoming obstacles by using skill and creativity, in order to carry out a goal. And the OP thinks this should be against the EULA.
I wish people like the OP would take this into consideration. Should players like Kaeda Maxwell be banned for playing EVE to the fullest, all so highsec miners can grab a coffee and be guaranteed to find their ship still intact when they return?
These are the two visions of EVE's future, and there cannot be any compromise. Either the OP's fail-fit hulk is invincible, or it is not. |

Let's hope so.
Quote:....The sociopathic actions of pirates, thieves, and scum is what continues to deter people without serious psychological problems from lowsec and nullsec.
You mean by blowing up spaceships in a game where people blow up spaceships? Is it sociopathic to play EVE as intended? I think not. 
Quote:Facing a distinct lack of easy targets instead of other organized alliances, the powerful groups decided to impose their will on players that wanted nothing to do with them.
Good. This is called "non-consensual PvP."
Quote:Since CCP isn't a company of complete morons, they were forced to take action before they started losing subscriptions.
They lost subscriptions with Incarna, the expansion designed to gear the game toward a more mainstream audience. CCP gains subscriptions when they gear the game toward proper EVE players--the "sociopaths" you mentioned earlier.
You can have your mindless highsec mining...I and the rest of the EVE community will take Burn Jita and Hulkageddon any day. |
