Good Morning One & All
The reason I am posting this is to counter the general image that all 'Carebears' fear danger, complexity, 'Goons' & CCPs EVE Online sandbox.
You see as consummate 'Carebear' I play EVE precisely to test myself against everything that CCP & All the other players can throw against me.
So as someone who made an extra 2 Billion ISK over my usual monthly income, all due to CCP's removal of Drone Alloys, The 'Goons' Burn Jita tantrum & 'Hulkageddon'
I thought it was only fair that I came and thanked all concerned for my extra income and to encourage other 'Carebears' that you don't have to join the predators to both survive and thrive in EVE
So how did I do it.
Well I adapted how I played.
After the initial the announcement of the removal of Drone Alloys from the game I started to hoarded all my ore, as it was obvious that metal prices would go through the roof before finally falling back to a new higher steady state price.
With the announcement of Burn Jita, I gave my Jita Office a holiday and moved all my operations to Amarr.
With the announcement of 'Hulkageddon', I dusted off my Retriever and Covetor blueprints and made a few to sell at the inflated prices that would follow the heavy losses.
While both of the above raged on I also switched from hauling & mining belts, to missioning both to build my Faction standing and mining the mission deadspaces.
Nothing better than mining a mission deadspace, as even if I was scanned down, if they wanted to 'gank' me they would always arrive at the deadspace beacon and not my mining ships, thus giving me more time to react & jump to safety.
So yes the 'Goons' are an irritant & their leader a buffoon (I was in the audience at his fateful Fanfest presentation), yes CCP have made a marvellous sandbox game and yes as a 'Carebear' I enjoy adapting and surviving among all of the EVE preditors.
Finally
Yes this a disposable posting alt. I might be a 'Carebear' but I am not stupid enough to give easy intel for those EVE predators who want to get all 'Carebears' out of EVE FULLSTOP 
I thoroughly enjoy adapting, surviving, thriving & irritating the hell out of the EVE predators as a result of being a 'Carebear' 
So thank you CCP and all the EVE players for making one of the best games around. |

Good post, would read again.
Unfortunately, the bears that have no desire to adapt will just troll the **** out of this thread. |

I would also like to take this time to thank my Grandson Tim fer helpin me out this mornin. I tell ya, Jim's a good kid and strong too! Grandma wanted us to go out and move the bird bath from around the back yard to the front. Seein my back dosnt let me do a lot of things that I used too I had to let the boy do most of the carryin. I remember when I was a boy we went to school fer half a day and the other half was workin on the farm. Back then Daddy had a large milk cow operation. We would line them all up and we had this suckin machine what got all the milk out of each cow. the Doc says thats why I gots me some strong bones. Had a lot of milk as a kid. |

You know there's something fundamentally wrong when the only way people can think of to promote the "best" part of the game is to make everything else suck more. |

I hadn't thought of being accused of being a 'Goon' alt before I posted.
I can almost see the witch hunt in the Goon ranks now as they try to find the 'Carebear' Mole in their midsts  |

It won't be a witch hunt. They are all care bears at heart. The more they deny it the more you know its true. Thats why they gank and attack care bears so much. Unfortuntely their repressed personalities only allow them to express that love by ganking and making lives hard. If one does attack you, don't show them hate tell them you love and forgive them  
That is why I think we should have a hug a Goon campaign.

It's a fking computer game, anyone who really thinks fear has anything to do with it must live such a protected life that they have no idea what real fear is.

You've taken control of your game experience and you're winning.
You're not a carebear.
Posting on this character because apparently some people get upset when they're asked difficult questions. M. |

+1 to OP,
that's more or less my own feeling about EVE. All the Drama is just a backdrop to me; it gives my EVE game a sense of aliveness that I can't get in any other MMO (that's also s-f). I adapt, I don't always survive, but I have fun pretending to be a space pilot.
The bears of EVE are made of stern stuff. |

Nice Post. Intelligent, informed, community based. Eve suits players who think, the whiners in this thread demonstrate the bottom of the barrel.
