THE APOLOGY

James, I'm sorry.

Insane wall of text

You are part of the problem, highsec never has been and should never be a PvP free zone, non consensual or otherwise. The only people exempt from PvP are newbies, and even then only when in their starter systems or running the SoE arc for the first time.

No, I am not part of the problem. I fully accept that nowhere in Eve is "safe". I fully accept that the moment I undock, I am a potential target. I fully accept that this is a sandbox game and all that entails. I fully accept the game as it has been presented to me. And THAT, is where you and I start to differ.

Truth is, posting on the forums with an alt is part of my emergent gameplay.

It's amusing to me to watch people squirm and whine.

lmao at approximately three out of every four posts being either goonspiracy garbage, claiming anyone who even partly agrees with James an alt, or whining about PVPers in a game that is 99% PVP.

With regard to the carebear playstyle, if you mean putting it back to the level it was at in the past (and then hopefully moving focus on to fixing lowsec/0.0), sure, why not? I wouldn't seriously advocate for the removal of highsec or something extreme like that because, as you say, EVE was always intended to have some level of carebearing.

I don't think anyone disagrees with that.

I dont disagree with much you just posted honestly.

There is many rewarding things in game that cant be accomplished in high sec that is only available in low and null. I think there need to be work done to null and sov.

I AM for changes like you suggest as long as they come with changes to sov and null that dislodge the "blue for days" mentality that was breed by greed and bad game mechanics.

... brilliantly executed troll on a scale not seen in High Sec before. ...

99%? You got proof/data to back up that number?

I guess talking in chat channels and ship spinning in a noob ship are things that don't count as PVP

So I should stop having BADWRONG fun. Got it. Everything should be PVP all the time forever and anything that takes away from that is KILLING EVE OMG. The weirdest part is, you guys don't seem to really want PVP. Not really. If you wanted actual fights, you would be out in null, or W-Space. What you want is to shoot at noobs in mining barges, using ships specifically designed to be expendable, and then chest beat about how you showed those wimpy carebears.

Nicely written, easy to see the comparisons swell. Had this been a blog people might not have bitched so much. I have to say I agree with what your saying, high sec is slowly changing for the worse but if they can balance income rewards for low sec all these problems will go away. Reduce belt numbers I'm high sec, reduce the number of high sec systems, move level 4s to new low sec areas along with manufacturing slots and make the high sec empires into high sec islands with risky areas to travel through between racial hubs. That way hi can be super safe but anyone wanting to make risk has to either TEAM UP and work together or take risks. Low sec thrives and eve wins

Fighting for a risk-free high sec is a worthy cause, carebears! All the hardcore neckbeards will have their lowsec and nullsec, and if we don't want part of that risk, well, that's not our problem.

Maybe if they stop blueing each other, they'd get the fights they're looking for.

FIGHTING FOR A THEMEPARK EVE!

"Self-entitled high sec bears could never HTFU so they went about their unintentional destruction of Eve. Oblivious to everything from the early stages these bears petitioned to take the game down and after spending years and millions of SP's finally realized this is not hello kitty online adventure"

^^ Hopeless trolling.

Please explain to me exactly what ISN'T some form of PVP in EVE.

fail (as usual tho).

To give proofs of your "99% PVP" you need to give a list of activities, attach it to PVP/PVE and then calculate.
Or simply give a link to place where it was made already.

Your variant is just evading question. And failed from start.
