jamesw	Posted - 2005.01.31 00:30:00 - [1] Edited by: jamesw on 31/01/2005 00:30:38 If you don't want to PvP, stay out of 0.4, and stay in your nub corp. Honour has nothing to do with it. edit: "IBRDM" -- jamesw Rubra Libertas Militia Originally by: RollinDutchMasters I fly a dominix, its like a portable blob in a can
jamesw	Posted - 2005.01.31 01:09:00 - [2] OK, so I'm actually going to have to explain this to you?? 1) There are a whole bunch of systems (1158 was it?) that suit your playing style. 2) When you jump to 0.4 for the first time, you get a little warning telling you that it is not safe space, and that CONCORD won't protect you there. That message is there for a reason. If you accept the message, you are clearly accepting the fact that you can be attacked there. The idea behind this message is to warn players that have a lot to lose (ie. implants), that perhaps its not the best idea they ever had. Now, you can see above the reasons I think you should stop complaining. Please explain to me why you complain without using all caps and without swearing or STFU. -- jamesw Rubra Libertas Militia Originally by: RollinDutchMasters I fly a dominix, its like a portable blob in a can
jamesw	Posted - 2005.01.31 01:23:00 - [3] OK, now we are getting constructive - it only took 18 replies. I used to run missions, and by carefully selecting the right (Level 3 was highest at the time) agent, I was never asked to go below 0.7 security. If you run missions, select an agent in a nice high security system and give that agent all you got. I am sure you could do the same with a level 4 agent if you need to. -- jamesw Rubra Libertas Militia Originally by: RollinDutchMasters I fly a dominix, its like a portable blob in a can
jamesw	Posted - 2005.01.31 01:48:00 - [4] Edited by: jamesw on 31/01/2005 01:48:43 Originally by: xTHE ONEx Originally by: jamesw OK, now we are getting constructive - it only took 18 replies.

What if i wish/want to do missions in 0.2 also? You know, more NPCs - more fun. But I also wish/want that NO ONE WILL DESTURB ME !!! Well, now comes the problem. You can't have both, and this game would suck balls if you could have both. You have to decide whether the risks outweigh the rewards - it is what this game is all about. I have lived below 0.4 for a great majority of my playing time, and never once been killed by a pirate (that I had not attacked myself). Edit: Hmm... better make that once.... I just remembered this one time.... when m0o was camping Orvolle (when it was 0.4).... and they blew me up. -- jamesw Rubra Libertas Militia Originally by: RollinDutchMasters I fly a dominix, its like a portable blob in a can
jamesw	Posted - 2005.01.31 01:56:00 - [5] I ask you this - if everything was easy to get and there was no risk, where would the economy be?? -- jamesw Rubra Libertas Militia Originally by: RollinDutchMasters I fly a dominix, its like a portable blob in a can
jamesw	Posted - 2005.01.31 01:56:00 - [6] Originally by: xTHE ONEx Edited by: xTHE ONEx on 31/01/2005 01:50:59 Originally by: RollinDutchMasters Perhaps instead of complaining after getting obliterated (I assume thats what prompted this little alt-outburst), you would be better served purchasing a ship destruction insurance plan from your local neighborhood pirates. Originally by: RollinDutchMasters Two, you wouldnt be paying the so-called 'murderers', because they wouldnt be forced to terminate your current clone if you paid - ergo, they would not be your so-called 'murderers'. Read carefully your previous post (the first quote). You mentioned pirates there. "to buy insurance plan from ... pirates" If you read your reply to the first post quoted, you called them murderers. The second posts explains how if you paid them they would not be murderers because they would not kill you. -- jamesw Rubra Libertas Militia Originally by: RollinDutchMasters I fly a dominix, its like a portable blob in a can
jamesw	Posted - 2005.01.31 02:01:00 - [7] Originally by: xTHE ONEx You don't get my point. PvP is fun , BUT ONLY AND ONLY : WHEN ALL THE SIDES WANT TO PvP !!! Right back at you... If you go into 0.4, you are clearly accepting that whether you want it or not PvP may come to you. This is easily translated into: If you go into 0.4, you want pvp. -- jamesw Rubra Libertas Militia Originally by: RollinDutchMasters I fly a dominix, its like a portable blob in a can
jamesw	Posted - 2005.01.31 02:29:00 - [8] I never said that 0.4 is for pvp only. What I said is that by going to 0.4 you are accepting the risk that you may be killed while there. This has been a fact of EVE ever since I can remember. I tell you what, 0.4 is great for mining too (not that I ever did that). There is lots of cool ore that is worth so much more than the stuff in 1.0. Why is it worth more? because it is riskier to get. That doesn't seem to stop a lot of the players who mine there. -- jamesw Rubra Libertas Militia Originally by: RollinDutchMasters I fly a dominix, its like a portable blob in a can
jamesw	Posted - 2005.01.31 02:36:00 - [9] Indy's are what you use after you scout. You can speed the process up by making something called a "friend". This "friend" can be used to run a jump or 2 ahead of your indy, and ensure the path is clear. If your scout runs into any trouble, he can let you know that there is danger ahead, and that you should best dock or proceed to the nearest safe spot. -- jamesw Rubra Libertas Militia Originally by: RollinDutchMasters I fly a dominix, its like a portable blob in a can
jamesw	Posted - 2005.01.31 02:39:00 - [10] Do I have to start quoting MYSELF???!?! Quote: If you go into 0.4, you are clearly accepting that whether you want it or not PvP may come to you. If you would like me to spell it out to you again: If you go into 0.4, you are clearly accepting that whether you want it or not PvP may come to you. NPC's are riskier there, yes. If you want to fight high end NPC's in 0.7 systems you can do that too, as I outlined earlier, by getting yourself an agent in a nice high security system. -- jamesw Rubra Libertas Militia Originally by: RollinDutchMasters I fly a dominix, its like a portable blob in a can
jamesw	Posted - 2005.01.31 02:51:00 - [11] Originally by: xTHE ONEx Edited by: xTHE ONEx on 31/01/2005 02:49:06 There is no mwd for indy. No anti-scramble modules for med slots. So what are all these anti-scramble things I have for my low slots? -- jamesw Rubra Libertas Militia Originally by: RollinDutchMasters I fly a dominix, its like a portable blob in a can
jamesw	Posted - 2005.01.31 03:13:00 - [12] Originally by: xTHE ONEx Will not help. Only thing that will is instant warp. Worst... Idea..... Ever..... This will ruin the game for pirates and anyone who is trying to chase down a ship. I suggest this idea for a module. It's called a "Tech II Clue". When you have a "clue", and are flying your industrial ship, this "clue" will help you to realise that it is not meant for running past pirate battleships. Having a "clue" will mean that you won't take your indy into a system you have not scouted. A "clue" often goes hand in hand with the "friend" i meantioned earlier in the thread. GET ONE -- jamesw Rubra Libertas Militia Originally by: RollinDutchMasters I fly a dominix, its like a portable blob in a can
jamesw	Posted - 2005.01.31 03:14:00 - [13] Originally by: xTHE ONEx Edited by: xTHE ONEx on 31/01/2005 03:10:51 Or Anti-Scramblers for med-slots. Or cargo expanders for med-slots + stabilizers (or nanofibers instead of stabilizers). Or pirate banning after killing in system other than 0.0 Why anti scramblers for medslots?? low slots not enough for you? Cargo expanders for med slots?? how does that help you get away? Pirate banning after killing other than 0.0.... omgwtfrofllolibtlKTHXBYE -- jamesw Rubra Libertas Militia Originally by: RollinDutchMasters I fly a dominix, its like a portable blob in a can
jamesw	Posted - 2005.01.31 03:19:00 - [14] Originally by: Ellandrian D'Amerathe Or a friend in a fast frigate or shuttle to scout gates for you. We do this for each other all the time, nothing better than a friend in a disposable ship to check the gates one step ahead of you :-) Oh.. my... god.... Just imagine, xTHE ONEx, if you had a SCOUT, you would not need WARP STABILISERS, and you could fit CARGO EXPANDERS instead. This is the sort of reward you get for team play. I think that our friend Ellandrian D'Amerathe has a Tech II Clue!!! Maybe you should get one. -- jamesw Rubra Libertas Militia Originally by: RollinDutchMasters I fly a dominix, its like a portable blob in a can
jamesw	Posted - 2005.01.31 03:42:00 - [15] Dude, the whole point of 0.4 and less is that you can be attacked there. The whole point of making Stabs and Expanders both fit in low slots is that there are rewards for teamwork. Remember that "friend" thingy i told you about?? Well, (and I know this concept is waaaaay out there), you get your "friend" to scout. That way you don't need warp stabs, and can use expanders instead. If you cant make or buy any "friends", you will have to do 2 trips instead of one. In reality, you are actually better off doing 2 trips than doing 1, because you are actually alive at the end!!! WHAT A BONUS!!! -- jamesw Rubra Libertas Militia Originally by: RollinDutchMasters I fly a dominix, its like a portable blob in a can
jamesw	Posted - 2005.01.31 04:00:00 - [16] Originally by: xTHE ONEx Trading IS NOT a cake. Mining is , but it is a different story. I agree with you in case of mining only. I am getting confused. First the complaint is about agent missions, next it is about mining. Now we agree that mining should be risky, but trading should not. Where did trading come from??? -- jamesw Rubra Libertas Militia Originally by: RollinDutchMasters I fly a dominix, its like a portable blob in a can
jamesw	Posted - 2005.01.31 04:20:00 - [17] Originally by: xTHE ONEx Trading comes from INDYs too. Story missions are in 0.4-0.3 also , and i think till 0.1 or 0.0 even. Well I can't argue about story missions. All I know is that last time I was agent running, the game mechanics specified they would never send you to a system where the security status was vastly different from their home system. That may well have changed now, but it was originally introduced because of this exact reason. I suggest you make a post on the "missions" forums if this is what concerns you, as I am sure there are many others who run story missions and manage to NOT get killed. As for trading in an indy: I will start the broken record again. Use a fricking scout. -- jamesw Rubra Libertas Militia Originally by: RollinDutchMasters I fly a dominix, its like a portable blob in a can
jamesw	Posted - 2005.01.31 04:43:00 - [18] Why? It's a perfectly justified way to play the game. If you can't handle them, stay in 0.5+ and CONCORD will hold your hand. -- jamesw Rubra Libertas Militia Originally by: RollinDutchMasters I fly a dominix, its like a portable blob in a can
jamesw	Posted - 2005.01.31 05:14:00 - [19] <blatant flame> After 4 pages and ~70 posts of trying to reason with you I feel qualified to say this: Mate, u are an absolute moron. You quite clearly have no clue. I suggest you go play solitaire or minesweeper or something closer to your level of intelligence. At least no one will complain when you log off because you are about to lose the game. </blatant flame> Now, if you still feel like playing EVE. Don't. -- jamesw Rubra Libertas Militia Originally by: RollinDutchMasters I fly a dominix, its like a portable blob in a can

If you can't handle them, stay in 0.5+ and CONCORD will hold your hand. Yep exactly AS JUSTIFIED AS LOG OFF !!! You ever heard about "Stay on topic" !? The guy is a deadset genius!! He manages to change a legitimate topic regarding logging off into a complaint about PVP in 0.4, then he comes here and tries to turn his own thread back into a justification of logging off... What a Star!! -- jamesw Rubra Libertas Militia Originally by: RollinDutchMasters I fly a dominix, its like a portable blob in a can
jamesw	Posted - 2005.01.31 05:37:00 - [21] Originally by: xTHE ONEx It seems that you ran out of vocabulary , how pity . That fact does not counts in favor for your intelligence level. Now you try to attack me on the forum. LITTLE KID !!! This is the way little kids behave . GO AND CRY TO YOUR MOMMA. You have proven that your intelligence even lower than NPC's in 0.7 I ran out of vocabulary? Nah I just ran out of ideas on how to have a logical discussion with someone who has all the intelligence of a squeezed lemon. -- jamesw Rubra Libertas Militia Originally by: RollinDutchMasters I fly a dominix, its like a portable blob in a can
jamesw	Posted - 2005.01.31 05:38:00 - [22] Originally by: xTHE ONEx Don't you see the whole picture, a little man All those things are linked together. You cant pull out just one of them. A picture of a little man?? Where?? /emote looks around nervously. -- jamesw Rubra Libertas Militia Originally by: RollinDutchMasters I fly a dominix, its like a portable blob in a can
jamesw	Posted - 2005.01.31 05:52:00 - [23] Edited by: jamesw on 31/01/2005 05:52:21 By the way, I don't see those "issues" as linked together. The log-off-to-save-battleship issue is a). an issue, and b) not restricted to low security PvP. The "wahh wahh i got shot by the evil pirate in 0.4" issue is a) not an issue, and b) if you think it is an issue, refer to a) and to my other posts on this thread. -- jamesw Rubra Libertas Militia Originally by: RollinDutchMasters I fly a dominix, its like a portable blob in a can
jamesw	Posted - 2005.01.31 07:13:00 - [24] This thread is teh funny. I am so over posting logical things to it now. -- jamesw Rubra Libertas Militia Originally by: RollinDutchMasters I fly a dominix, its like a portable blob in a can
jamesw	Posted - 2005.01.31 10:55:00 - [25] xTHE ONEx, I did not know that it is possible to create a character with a base intelligence of zero. How do you do it?? -- jamesw Rubra Libertas Militia Originally by: RollinDutchMasters I fly a dominix, its like a portable blob in a can
jamesw	Posted - 2005.01.31 11:03:00 - [26] Originally by: xTHE ONEx Here we go again: 1. READ THE FIRST POST OF THIS TOPIK. 2. LIKE I SAID BEFORE : PvP IS FUN , WHEN BOTH SIDES ABLE AND WANT TO. READ MY POSTS IN THIS "TOPIK". THEY EXPLAIN WHY YOU ARE CONSENTING TO (AKA WANTING) PVP WHEN YOU JUMP INTO 0.4. Now, have a cookie, or if you would prefer it some Mining Cake. -- jamesw Rubra Libertas Militia Originally by: RollinDutchMasters I fly a dominix, its like a portable blob in a can

How do you do it?? GOT NOTHING TO SAY ? - SHUT UP. I have a lot to say, as evidenced by my numerous posts and helpful suggestions in your thread. You can thank me later for all my tips. To the Mods - I think this thread does deserve a sticky: Perhaps we can delete all of xTHE ONEx's posts to this thread, then make it a sticky full of useful tips from myself and others on how not to get yourself killed in 0.4 or below. It would be very helpful to the newer players of the game, and may help them not become so bitter like our friend here. I think thats a good idea. -- jamesw Rubra Libertas Militia Originally by: RollinDutchMasters I fly a dominix, its like a portable blob in a can
