I just decided to start posting and chose to do it on an alt because it seems unwise to let pvper's know where you live. I believe that eve pvper's are predictable in the fact that they will attack those that do not agree and most have little tolerance of other people's opinions. Most eve pvper's need validation that their values are correct and will attack those that disagree. I see no reason to make that easy for them.

This is exactly what i was referring to. There are people in this game that do not operate in a logical manner. As a result, this makes them more dangerous. They can not be trusted to be honorable and will shoot you in the back when you are not looking because you pissed them off. I have nothing to prove to them. I just choose to avoid them. |

Maybe I should ask. What is the value of posting on one of my mains? What is to gain?

These are again the people that act irrationally and are dangerous as a result. |

Name recognition and its benefits. For example, if I comment on balance in frigate PvP as myself, I have the fact I'm the CEO of a successful frigate PvP corp, plus my killboard (as it may be) backing my arguments up. If I made the same argument using an alt, my credibility would be greatly decreased because of "who the heck is this guy and what qualifies him to whine about the state of the Rifter?" It also provides a more "holistic" experience of Eve, for lack of a better word. Why isolate different ways to play if not doing so only enhances the experience? Yes, I am counting possible hostile reactions as "enhancement", because Eve is all about conflict. I have alts that I use for things my main simply cannot do (e.g. hisec hauling/trading, running an unbiased gambling operation, etc), but those are last resorts for things I'd love to do on my main, but simply can't. So, while you ask "what is the value of posting on a main", some instead ask "what is the value of not posting on a main, and how does it compensate for the value lost?"
I have no desire to whine about anything in eve, and i plan to adapt to whatever changes CCP makes. I like eve alot just the way it is. I doubt that i will ever need to impress someone with my reputation or accomplishments. I do not see any reason in trying. |

I do not see any reason in trying. *shrug*Then you're fine with an alt and all of the "omg alt poster" rage is not really aimed at you. Play the way you want: you want to alt post? Go for it! On a different note, that "-----" you include in your post always makes your post look like you empty quoted, and your actual post is a forum signature. It's very disconcerting.
Thank you for the advise and the permission. By the way i do read your blog from time to time and find it interesting. |
