My character has a -7.2 sec rating and was in a high sec system in a heavily damaged thorax when the patch went online. As i approached a stargate the sentry guns open fired on me. I coudnt make the gate before being destroyed , so i jumped to a station. Same again. I jumped to a planet (no sentry guns) and logged. Iam now stuck in space with no-where to go. If iam to lose all of the work i have put into that character and ship because of a patch going online I will find it hard to renew my subscription, since i have no intention of starting again. Any ideas, suggestions or have you been left with same problem?

I think this is a legimiate excuse for a "stuck" petition, I would be surprized if a GM refuses to move you to a nearby low security system.

I have now been moved. Iam no longer drifting in space in a damaged ship.I have been moved to a station, where i have carried out repairs. Shame really that the station is in a 1.0 system, surrounded by other 1.0 systems. So iam again in the same boat :( another petition has gone in, we await the result...

Well, i think if you use your shield booster you should be able to get through some gates.
I doubt they will transfer you to a low sec. area.
This is not a hijack

There is 2 other options you have.
1. Sell your ship and make a run out to pirate space. The guns will not shoot at you in your pod. You will be safe as long as you dont have a bounty.
2. Let a buddy that has not been naughty fly it out for you. Or hire a courrior to diliver it.
Actually I amazed that the GM moved you. It's the equivilent of a bank robber calling on god "Help I am stuck in a bank surrounded by cops... please move me to safty"

I'm also surprised you got moved. Although I lolled when you moved somewhere worse.
you could sell your ship, move your clone, and annihilate yourself...
or bravely charge through the gates.
It's kinda risky being where you shouldn't, eh?

Reply to message stated that they will not move low sec players to low sec systems. Owing to the fact that when player pirates blockaded gates high sec players faced the sames situation in effect, as such this is just a role reversal. So I have come to the decision to make a run for it and hope that my overcharged mwd and v15 are up to it. If the "great escape" works all well and good, if it fails i will not be renewing my subscription, after all i paid to play a PVP game not to have my hands tied in such a manner to protect the "whining" classes. Fly u giant oversized love boat, fly....

1 Medium Shieldbooster, 1 EM ward, 1 Heat ward allowed me to escape. Either MWD or good shield systems are the solution I guess.

I guess Ms. Millions has been naughty, eh?
I'm kind of weirded out they didn't move you - haven't you guys noticed that many systems *changed sec level after patch??* The .8 i was in became a .6 and my alt woke up in the middle of 0.4 in an Imicus. Ouch!

I don't get it. You were told this was going to happen and you still stay in a high security system.

What I find funny is now tha tthe role reversal is on them they don't like it. This guy has the nerve to say he is going to quit if he loses his ship. I wonder how many people quit when they lost thier ship to him. Even worse he prolly podded them too which made them lsoe skillz, and he isn't even facing losing skillz since the sentry guns wont pod kill. What a loser who can't take what he dishes out.
Spelling corrections welcome, but don't expect me to edit my post. |

I have gone back and fourth into secure space many times now. The key is speed. Go fast and they don't hit you as often thanks to the tracking nerf.. er patch.
Also noticed that the longer you stay in sec space the more agro the cops get on you. But a simple logout and log back in seems to fix that nicely. ;)
PS: Cops battleships have slow tracking. Can't even kill me in a shuttle. hehe.

ahhh Booky. The differance between my situation and those players trapped by blockades is that the blockades were run by players , I on the other hand was trapped by software patch. A patch i may add which serves only to protect high sec players in an attempt to stem the mass exodus of people frustrated by the PvP (bloackades)elements of EVE and hence a decline in CCP profits. NEWSFLASH, this game has PvP elements, if thats not ur cup of tea go play the care bears online,because rest assured i will POD kill you if i cross you:) and one final thing, I got out, i left my thorax at a station and egg'd my way out(a minor miracle considering my sec rating and bounty) then bought another thorax whilst setting up courier missions to get my equipment out. All with a little help from my friends. Thanks for the help everyone and the tips on outrunning sentry guns.

Q:
Any ideas, suggestions or have you been left with same problem?
A:
Let the sentry's destroy your Thorax and travel the rest in an your egg. Your not the only one that has to do that.
Think of all the ppl's that have been destroyed by other ppl's, innocent miners and noobs. Being a pirate means that your sec level will drop and that is just an bourdon that you will have to accept. Thorax only costs about 8 mil. CCP is an game developer not the salvation army

Not a pirate myself, but in reply to the prevoius poster:
No, you should not have to accept getting stuck in a hi sec system after a patch. After all, you moved there when it was a low sec system. If you *knew* it'd turn high after the next patch, I doubt the affected player would have entered and logged out in that system. Being stuck is no fun.
Imagine it's the opposite. You sailed into a 0.8 system to do some mining, log out. Come back, it's a 0.0 system with npc pirate cruisers guarding the gate. Sounds fair to you?

The difference between the risk that pirates presented and the sentry guns that orbit the jumpgates are that there were never pirates camping every gate. Unless it was a one way system, you always could leave through another gate. Big difference.

My thought is that CCP really doesn't want gate-camping, noob-podding, kill you in 3 shots pirates in the game, or atleast in empire space.
The ltest patch seems to send that message very clearly.

Hee Hee,im so glad that a evil pirate got a taste of his own Med's. I so wish i could get a pool of acid and put all the evil pirates that have messed up my gameplay in it. Hee Hee im so glad you suffered hee hee. :) :) :)
I hope it keeps happening. I want all evil pirates to suffer for all eternity. Hee Hee.
no i will not be a carebear and quit this cool game,cause i know sooner or later that a pirate that has ruined my gameplay for that time will suffer when someone else comes along that is stronger and destroy's him/her.
Now understand i have met a few friendly pirates but not many.So i dont hate all pirates just 98% of them hee hee.

Personally I think CCP should move her. Regardless of what you may think of her being a pirate, a change made by the developer trapped her. Not some player that you had the option to fight, to outwit or to out-wait.
And if the GM said something about 'role reversal', the next thing out of my mouth would have the FCC salivating at the fines I'd incur. Whoever answered the petition isn't there to pass judgement on anyone.

Like i said the pirate got what all pirates deserve,the same pain and annoyance they give everyone else.Hee Hee,CCP give them more pain,more pain!! Hee Hee.
I dont care if it was cause of a patch or a player,a pirate got what they deserved,the pain and annoyance they deserve... i serisouly hope it gets real bad for pirates in this game. They should get the same kind of punishment in real life in game,very heavy fines,loss of property,death etc. The GM did his job well. Maybe that person will think twice next time.

get an alt char in a shuttle to make instant-jumping bookmarks of every gate you need to go by to get out of empire space, drop em in a can around a planet in the system your thorax is stuck, pck them up with ur thorax and run for it, you wont even get hit because ull be jumping before the invulnerability of ~10s ends

So ya guys know im just role playing. As ya can see i didnt curse or anything.I hope no one took what i said personaly,its just all fun.
Muaddid; Is that hard to do at all? Im not a pirate or someone with a negitive rateing im just curious. I kinda think it would be hard if your negitive and your in a system with alot of police.

talk about "carebear", i've never heard such gut-twisting belly-acheing whiners as these pk's every time ccp does anything whatsoever to reduce their cruiser v ibis gangbangs that they call "pvp".

I've never posted anything about player pirates, bad or good. It didn't matter to me. I knew it was gonna be in the game when I got my first glipse of a preveiw video back in beta.
I'm posting now because I've seen many players complainig about being podded for no reason and the pirates would keep saying "stop whining or leave". But, the past couple of weeks, CCP has been balancing the game and now that the pirates don't have a huge advantage, about half of the whiner posts are player pirates. I don't like whiners on either side, but to player pirates: "STOP YOUR WHINING". Atleast the ones that got their cruiser blown up in 3 shots has some validity to their frustration, but you (pirates) don't.
Lets all stop this whiner topic and play some EVE.

i'm glad he or she made it out. It showed some guts and this game needs more of it. Now I will also be glad when somebody he or she attacks blows her head off by surprise. That will also show guts. The PVP people add a spice to this game that would not be there with out it. Otherwise this would be the how many minerals can you pile up while you read game.

I totally agree with Booky , Miz you are complete loser.
How you have the audacity to mention 'whiners' in one of your posts and then cry like a little b*tch because the GM's won't cheat for you and move your ship.
OOoooo Im not gonna play anymore because my ship got destroyed by police trying to protect innocent people.
Think how much fun it would be everyone you podded gave up on the game !! YOU WHINING LITTE LOSER !!!

well, it sounds like the discourse has degenerated a bit since it started but I would like to put in my 2 cents.
1. You being able to be in a high-sec area b4 the patch was a bug that us law-abiding players complained about. The Devs fixed it and posted extensively about it before it happened. This is not a bug, it is a bug-fix that was announced. If you choose to be a pirate, the trade off is you lose your access to empire space. Plus armed citizens take pot shots at you. Hey, that's pretty much like RL so suck it up.
2. You could at any time have dumped your kit at a station like you did, hell, you could have bought a frigate and had your people pick up the cruiser too rather than completely abandoning it.
Since ppl like you have put a number of my mates in pods (or into hard vacuum) you should have the privilege of flying egg and risking a podding for yourself. Besides you would have only had to travel 15 jumps max in a pod, prolly more like 6 B4 hitting space low sec enuff to pick up a starter ship and plot an autopilot course preferring low sec systems. It is only a shame that us nice ppl get a sec hit for podding anyone. I would gladly podd a corp mate of one of the pirate corps that has podded my mates.
3. Whining: C'mon people, everyone's been screwed by a patch or two. He's entitled to whine, even as a "bad man pirate". We law abiding ppl who like the changes to security are eqaully entitled to LOAO (plural of LMAO?) at pirates who are finally having the game rules change to make piracy a win-lose proposition rather than the fastest way to wealth, power and prestiege. You pirate boys remind us this game has PVP "elements" then proceed to make characters that do nothing else :) I am all for PVP elements. I travel with a combat loadout that would give any lone pirate second thoughts, and allows me to run a minor blockade with no armour damage and giving as good as I get.
You pirates gotta realize the new patch is more realistic. If you disagree, go in RL to Wall Street with a gang of five to ten armed guys and try to sit there all day mugging people in broad daylight and/or shooting stockbrokers in cold blood and then taking their wallets, watches and shoes.
Good f*&^king luck. NYPD tactical would put you in body bags in 15 minutes from time of the first attack. Try the same thing in rural Rwanda, Congo or Afghanistan for that matter and you can do rob and murder people in a gang for days/weeks/months (depending on time, area, cur. Try the same thing in Compton or South Central you'd last longer that Wall Street, maybe about 2 or 5 hours until local gangs chased you off (much like Russ did to MoO).
This is the realistic part of the game, finally being implemented. Stone cold pirates, like hard core miners, NPC pirate hunters and bounty hunters, are limited to the hinterlands where big risks pay off with big rewards *sometimes*. Wimps stay in empire space and get rich doing something boring like mining omber 16 hours a day or whatever. They are welcome to that life (if you call it a life).
You guys miss gate camping and need something else to do? Start doing hits in 0.0 space for those pure-hearted 1.0 types with all money and no stones. Trust me, there are ppl they want dead but they are too weak or chicken to do it, and in 0.0 space you can kill anyone you want. YOu might also want to work more at controlling rich or critical transit points in 0.0 space, or providing protection for those who want to use those spots. You are also the best guys to begin to plan for stations in the hinterlands so that you can do as smart criminals have always done, get rich off crime and then get richer off of investing the proceeds of crime into legit businesses. Worked for the Kennedy family and the God knows the Mafia :)
It's not as easy as just killing everything that approaches a gate, but that's good. Plus, it's more interesting, less pointless, less stupid and yes, more fair to noobs who we need to continue to join and play if we want Eve to be financially viable over time.
