What is hilarious is to me is that people are taking this "movement" this serious. Its an incredible troll job honestly.

This whole thing boiled down is just a bunch of goons alts that are bored but also goons trying to impact the ability for some to make isk in high sec to fund low and null sec pvp.

The sheeple that are lining up because they think this is some valiant and honest effort to "save the game" is quite honestly one of the funniest things I have seen in a while in Eve.

Well done Goons, well done

So if I understand well, James fights the carebear who play the sandbox their way who, in turn, fights James for playing the sandbox his way. Is that it?

Thats close except one group doesnt want to play on a level playing field.

The ganking is fine but most of the tears come from the gankers now days because they have to put in more of an investment than 3 days skill training and throw away cheap ships to gank ships that took months to sit in and fly.

Make no mistake, the tears flow from both sides of this argument and the ganker element has been shedding a lot of them lately.

the person who wrote this suffers from a lack of reading comprehension.

@OP: very nice writeup. i wish every EVE player was able and willing to read and understand it.

no. james fights for the one popular MMO that is still somewhat of a sandbox to not be overrun by carebears and become a space candyand.

I think its a little funny and ironic that the tag line "self entitled" is used so much with these guys. There is no more self entitled group that then mouth breathing pvp types who think anything short of "anarchy" is the death knell for a game.

There are reasonable pvp types, in fact, I think most of the pvpers in Eve understand the need of empire and a well rounded demographic to make Eve what it is and fuel the engine that provides the conflict.

There is a reason many of these mouth breathers have never developed their own MMO.........

They should get rid of high sec.

Then all 70k-100k( thats being generous) of you can run around in a game that would see little to no future development and quickly become a wasteland and forgotten game.


The Ultimate irony in all of this is the same folks who champion the growth of the game over the years fail to correlate that growth to the gradual changes to entice a less harsh "lifestyle" in high sec over the years.

I wish they would take out all safeguards and rule of law in high sec because this forum would be entertaining reading all of these morons cry as the game dies a quick death.

You have no more proof that the growth of the game is exclusively due to highsec players than I do that it's due to nullsec players. Less silly claims, please.

Here comes the irony part..... there really should be little doubt about who the self entitled element is in this argument.

murdering carebears

CCP produces the population charts. Its pretty clear to everyone but the head in the sand pvpers.

Lets get honest. What would happen to this game if High Sec would function like low sec?

Ill tell you what would happen, the game would die.

highsec should not function like lowsec. because if it did, it would be lowsec. highsec should function like a starting point for new players to get off their training wheels and not for EVERYONE to stay there indefinitely and suck on glaciers while watching porn.

You mean the people who insist on 'consensual PVP' only?

You're confusing "highsec inhabitant" with "PvP intolerant player". Most players live in highsec because it is competitively advantageous to do so, not because they refuse to take risks. It's that the rewards for taking risks are not there. Players like being rewarded. Change the rewards and risks equally for all and we'll see who stays and who goes.

What we do know is that the "PvE exclusive" crowd, judging by carebear expansions that are considered failures like Incursion and Tyrannis, is a small minority when it comes to CCP's bottom line. Whether it's because they are small in number or because they PLEX all their subs, I can't say, but I can say that nerfing their riskaverse isk farming "playstyle" will not kill EVE.

The "carebear dollar" myth is usually invoked when all other arguments to defend anti-PVP standpoints are exhausted and the anti-EVE arguer has to resort to threatening EVE itself.
