The difference between CCP and the average "just want to blow stuff up" pilot, is that CCP sees it as acceptable when it's goal-oriented. Goals drive conflict and conflict keeps EVE alive. All playstyles.
Just blowing stuff up drives nothing. The people doing it either get bored or run out of stuff to blow up, since nobody sticks around to get blown up if there's no reason to stick around.
It happened to low-sec and it's slowly happening to null-sec. In the end, nobody wins.
It can't happen to hi-sec, hi-sec is the incubator in EVE. Blow it up and everything will eventually fade away.
That's why CCP is looking into hi-sec PvP. Looking for ways to add goals. Stuff like POCOs in hi-sec, better structure for war decs and transferable kill-rights.
They aren't looking to remove non-consensual PvP in hi-sec, but add structure and goals. Because FFA PvP with no goals has killed every single MMO that tried it.
Pretty much this.
And I pick one of your formulas to add that if FFA PVP was that good and awesome as many claim, the test server would be more populated, which it isn't. |

In return I'm telling you your argument is a strawman one since in this very same forum and thread some say Eve is becoming a theme park game and others asking for a full pvp server everywhere from VFK-IV up to Jita.

The thread has turned a bit into a "Who is Who" of gankers anyways, like theme parks are now real. CAPSLOCK LOL You're quite the embarrassment, considering that you have nothing that backs up your display of arrogance. You're just like the typical u-mad-bro-ganker, really. *shakeshead and facepalms*
Talking about arrogance, it's nice that feeling does not pay taxes yet, you'd get more than you could ever pay
