I think once or twice per year Concord Police should go on strike for a week or so. During this time there would be no police action, sec status loss, etc. Keep it real. The game keeps getting nerfed in favor of carebears, so this way us pirates would get at least a token of respect given to the carebears. We pay to play too...

I all so support this. Carebears have there happy time mining, producing and what not. Yet us pirates have to reside in low sec all the time. Let us emerge with a bang. Once or twice a year is not asking much.

I do not support this action as it will lower the player count on the servers significantly. You cant force people to PvP, if you try they will just go and find a game where they dont have to.

Amen. Carebears whine their way to getting whatever they want. Nerfing insurance will reduce suicide ganks, making Concord response the same in any high sec system will reduce suicide ganks, blah blah, whine whine. Give us something for a change.

1st it is a week, not all the time. 2nd even if some do not play that week, there will still be plenty of people that do anyway and we can amuse ourselves at their expense. 3rd I suspect you're a whiny carebear.

Many carebears do not read the news and will undock not knowing what is going on. They will promptly be pwned by pirates and loose their faction fitted BS worth billions of isk. They will cry, petition and then when told this was an event for this week will unsub..

Wait...machines can go on strike? I thought CONCORD was mostly unmanned drones besides the people who service them. I forgot to mention that you are in fact reading something that is called a signature. |

Lana your really only looking at one side like most people do. CCP can put a warning when you log onto your character. There could also be "safe" systems that where not affected by the strike. Please stop being closed mineded and stop trying to speak for every one. Wait for a few more post befor trying to do that.

1st. This would hugely favor large blobs and every pvp oriented corp and alliance while totally taking the **** on new players and players that focus on anything else than pvp of which there happen to be many in empire space.
2nd. Many, many players would quit.
3rd. CCP would never let this happen.
4th. You haven't thought this through.
5th. Go back to the drawing board. I agree with everything Barakkus posts. |

With Pirates haveing access to the majority of the universe. Its still suprising that they still whine about High sec. If u want to pirate in HS then do as people have been doing for years and suicide gank. Dont ***** about your losing sec standing as u wanted it that way, in the first place. Everyone choses his place to be, you have chosen yours. Deal with it. Running the Wheel for the CORP

This post reminds me the typical miners whining about the quantity and quality of roids in high sec compared with low sec or null sec. There are plenty of targets to carebear for ISK on them.Look how PL is ransoming alliances lol... Or if you dont want the huge "blob" try what those Dirt Nap do with the only difference that you dont kill them and ransom them. Be carefull though,people in null sec tend to shoot back.

Now that i think of it,pirates are "carebears" too.From the moment you undock the ship you are planning to make ISK with,it doesnt have much difference with the other players that undock a pimped mission ship,or a hulk to attack roids. So,you cant ask the game to be rebalanced in your favour,its like carebear miners ask rare roids for a week in empire,or missioners 10/10 PLEXes in Jita. How can a carebear pirate ask similar things? And please dont use the normal crap about how hard and risky it is to camp with 10 more guys and 2-3 alt scouts.You warp out at the first sight of trouble.If you want true carebear danger,try undocking a 3-4 BIL Golem in a mission hub for sometime and see what happens

by a similar line, you could make low-sec into hi-sec for a week. this would mean the carebears could mine all those rare ores and CONCORD would protect them!
EVERY pirate would whine about that, what makes you think it would be OK if it's the other way around?

oh oh!! if they are machines, how about an event involving some sort of virus causing them all to go absolutely batship* crazy and attack everyone (albeit with less deadly efficiency to give us a half a chance) for a few days until CORCORD gets things figured out..
As far as a strike, another idea as well.. a high ranking CONCORD official gets corrupted once or twice a year, and is receptive to bribes for a set duration of time until he is exposed (and gives the News channels something to talk about).
Seed DED Connections, and have it pertain to player character bounties only... and make it so that the bounties cannot be collected by pilots with an account, account owner, Corp, or Alliance level connection to the pilot with the bounty. This might get more bounty hunters inspired, and thus more combat for pirates.

In what way has every nerf helped the carebear? Torp flight time? warp to 0? Deepspace nerf? Minmitar actualy being a damage dealer? If the game was tailored to nothing but carebears you would have no 0.0,There would be no chance in a hi sec gank,Insurance claims for ganking would be void.I dont think you know this game as well as you think you do.

So many of you seem to be missing the point. It's not about making money or easy kills. It's about the fun and hilarity of blowing up carebears. Tears are a wonderful thing and should never go to waste.

Nope I totally agree with you. It would be just as great for low sec to be guarded by Concord for a week or two per year. Can you imagine the WTF? from pirates that find themselves getting concorded in low sec cause they couldn't be bothered to read the warning. Win.

Lol i think you all that support this must be either higly stupid or plane dumb you take a pick.
You can't seriously complain over that you are restrictet to low.sec. If you want to shoot people who can't pvp War.Dec them or go shoot at NC. But that you complaing over you can't shoot carebears just shows how insane low your skills in pvp is. Come 0.0 and do some propper pvp instead of that station camping in low.sec waiting for rookie ships. Or you afraid of loosing your t1 cruiser ? Btw if you get mad over this post, you just made my day

I would like to point out that most lowsec dwellers don't really care about highsec and don't like the blobs in 0.0, so these aren't the people agreeing this is a good idea.

As a big cudly carebear i would love to see something happen... How about once a day/week a random hi sec system swaps to a low sec system and vice versa.. IE: jita has a 0.1/2/3/4 sec status and some random 0.1/2/3/4 gets a hi sec status for the day   Done on a complete random basis and without any warning.. Could be fun

Like most pointed out: EvE has become too Carebearish. Hence this wont happen in no form.
You are allowed to laugh, but... by now I know there are actually people who cry in real when loosing their Officer-fit CNR. Mental breakdown and stuff - ya know? This wont be smooth on the amount of players - therefore wont happen. Go out, bust a mission and make the Carebear flag himself.

The chaos this would cause in Jita for even one day, or one hour... ugh! Sorry, it might be nice if you did this in say below .8 sec systems (going off where you could anchor a POS, any where you couldn't would still be safe), but all systems... well... I think it would just be a disaster.

You wanna play, fine ! There`s a crap-load of pvp going on in 0.0, so I`m sure you`ll find someone there to shoot at. Unless you`re a whiny *** that can`t stand getting shot at. 0.0 still has the most valuable resources so there`s a much higher potential for profit there than in empire. And if something like this would happen, carebears would simply stay in stations for the week. However,something interesting would be the possibility to "hire" NCP mercs,not as though as CONCORD, but similar, for that given "week(s)" to follow all those hulk-minning carebears and protect them while they quickly strip 0.0 belts of all the "good-stuff". This would leave all the new players for you to pod-kill, causing lots of account cancellations for CCP. Yeah ...

Uh, no. Probably not going to happen on TQ.
Sisi on the other hand, has precedence in the form of Armageddon day. Why not start a thread on Test Server Feedback asking for another one of those? It'll get you all the pew pew you want.

Now that i think of it,pirates are "carebears" too.From the moment you undock the ship you are planning to make ISK with,it doesnt have much difference with the other players that undock a pimped mission ship,or a hulk to attack roids. So,you cant ask the game to be rebalanced in your favour,its like carebear miners ask rare roids for a week in empire,or missioners 10/10 PLEXes in Jita. How can a carebear pirate ask similar things? And please dont use the normal crap about how hard and risky it is to camp with 10 more guys and 2-3 alt scouts.You warp out at the first sight of trouble.If you want true carebear danger,try undocking a 3-4 BIL Golem in a mission hub for sometime and see what happens
So many of you seem to be missing the point. It's not about making money or easy kills. It's about the fun and hilarity of blowing up carebears. Tears are a wonderful thing and should never go to waste.
No m8 i am totally into this.But balance should be kept in game.So with that in mind,each time someone SBs a low gate,there should be a slight possibility of random hotdrops by Concord.I am definately sure that this would create more tears than killing someone other's hauling alt in empire.Unless you the carebear pirates dont ever go to Jita to sell stuff... This is a very weird.It calls carebear someone pretty easily....

This honestly makes you sound like a "carebear-PvPer"...there are game mechanics to ensure people can play the game to their likes. Want to be a pirate? Deal with the consequences as many if not most pirates do. This includes losing sec rating or - god forbid! - getting shot down by CONCORD in 0.5 or higher.
Want to be one of those apparently so loathed carebears? Stick to high sec space or travel accordingly (scouting, watching reports, tanking your ship etc).
Asking for a security measure against harassment to be disabled every once in a while just hints that you are a total failure at PvP and especially ganking and being a pirate. Seems you're looking for PvP to be what you always criticise about some players - carebear-like. Yay for vanilla-PvP!

What incredibly arrogant idea the op has come up with!If this were to happen, he would get to feel like Mr. Pirate Tough Guy, at least until the real PvP experts showed up from deep in null and did to him what he planned for less experienced players.
This game is already front loaded for experienced players, all this would do is make it next to impossible for new players to ever get good at it. Fact is, the idea is totally fail.
So, how about this; instead of having a sec status in systems, have a probability of a Concord response throughout Eve. Lower in null, a little higher in low sec, and higher still in high sec. I personally would take the risk. My question to Mr. Pirate Tough Guy is, would you?

Of course not, I am a new player and unless I want to buy a bunch of plex and then buy a charactor that is 4 years old, I wouldn't stand a chance in this time-ingame advanteged universe. I dont mind losing a ship, but I'm not congenitally stupid either

Naw, I've been in sec systems from 0.0 up. They all have there fun. I'm just suggesting a fun RARE event. Not like I'm asking for this all the time. I just think the chaos that would ensue would be great fun and full of lolz. If you saw my earlier post, you also saw that I fully support the idea of a week of concord enforcement in low sec. I think it would be equally fun to see pirates that couldn't pay attention to warnings get concorded when they think they're safe.

1st it is a week, not all the time. 2nd even if some do not play that week, there will still be plenty of people that do anyway and we can amuse ourselves at their expense. 3rd I suspect you're a whiny carebear.
Many carebears do not read the news and will undock not knowing what is going on. They will promptly be pwned by pirates and loose their faction fitted BS worth billions of isk. They will cry, petition and then when told this was an event for this week will unsub..
You CAN NOT force people that don't want to PvP to PvP.
Lana is not a carebear, she's usually a dedicated pirate, but she's right guys... they will just leave

Edited by: Lord Nagumo on 07/09/2010 02:31:05 Eve could quite possibly be the most complicated MMORPG in existence. This level of complexity does a fantastic job of keeping away ******s who play games like EverQuest, Bejeweled, The Sims, or Deer Hunter. Unfortunately, those with the intellegence and patience to navigate the intricate character creation process and lengthy tutorial are soon beaten and humiliated by the existing player base forcing them to log out. gamers soon find EVE is populated by other, considerably less friendly and, surpisingly, more intelligent ******s with computers. And real life is the same way. I guess what im saying is ya it will be hard for new guys but hey i got my ass kicked all over the place and im not ****ing down both legs screaming and crying so YES TO THE WEEK OF PURE PVP

THIS.
My 3rd week in, the trial friendly mission running, highsec mining op running carebear corp I joined was wardecced.
CEO was like "LOL EVERYONE STAY IN STATION AND THEY'LL GET BORED AND GO AWAY" however, most of us decided to form up and go kill them. Despite all being summarily trounced by 2 drakes (there was 8 of us...killed by 2 dudes, Kirth Gersen and Chapters, love both of these guys for getting me into pvp so early in the game) I was in a condor and was told to just web them and orbit while going as fast as I could.
No mercy was asked for and none was given - just combat. So I left after the dec and joined a pvp corp and never looked back, still fly with those guys to this day. All because of a highsec wardec <3

I understand the need for PvP fighting, but there are times when all it dose is drive people out of the game.
I am fairly new to the game and was in a corp in a quiet little part of space mining away when a guy flew in and stold from my can. when I called him on it he made a formal dec of war.
Now i understand that this is all part of the game, but in this case I am totaly out matched and there is no way for me to possibly pay what the guy is asking to end hostilities.
So in effect what he has done is driven me out of the game because I have no way to either fight him or pay him.
just one more way the game drives people away

How about an event where all nullsec and lowsec are turned into highsec for a week!!1!! Without a warning of course, the sec status of the systems would remain the same but concord would be working everywhere!!!1 When ppl to try to pvp, to their surprise they get concodeekken to hell!1!1 on the top of that it would be great if concord would pop sihps just randomly, out of the blue. that would be so awesomesaucebbq

Im partially in favour of this, but instead of them going on strike they should go on holiday to low and null sec. now that would be really funny. But then I guess all the low/null sec players would all be snivelling about that now wouldn't they.

Lana your really only looking at one side like most people do. CCP can put a warning when you log onto your character. There could also be "safe" systems that where not affected by the strike. Please stop being closed mineded and stop trying to speak for every one. Wait for a few more post befor trying to do that.
I usually dont agree with lana but listen to him. He is trying to protect you from yourself. These ideas wont work for the other guys getting beat on and station spinning. In the end it will be tears for the carebears and tears for CCP's wallet which means eventually you will show up here again *****ing.....yet.....again.
So to recap. Dont think. Let us do that for you.
