Futuristic science fiction Internet clocks say 88:88 when they break, they aren't right twice a day, but are always wrong. Kinda like a poster in these forums named after a famously nutritious cruciferous vegetable.

The difference is when I say stupid stuff I acknowledge it. My criticism of him is clearly over the top, but there's no denying he and his followers treat every precious bon-mot he spews as gospel. Eve is wayyy more complicated.

Who is James315???

what i see is constant anger towards carebears from people who use carebear-like methods to protect themself from carebear-like dangers.

What i don't see is: where is this magic thing which separates carebears and non-carebears in this situation

Bunch of cowards.

I deny it.

See how easy that was?

Apply your mind, capable of apprending the complexity of EVE, to the website full of that 'spew', and try to perceive the complexity there as well. Or not, read it with dismay like a highsec miner, unable to discern anything but the most literal layer. Your choice.

Isn't it time you you manned up to your moral responsibilities and pay your mining license like your supposed to. Think of it as a donation to the betterment of high sec.

James isn't your enemy, he's trying to gently help you via bumping and ganking. Its an act of kindness, and you should do the honorable thing , and live up to your side of the bargain and pay the man for his kind hearted work.

When you pay a mining fee and refrain from bot aspirant behavior, it acknowledges the important lesson you have been taught, that lesson of course being "Pay your mining fee and don't engage in bot aspirant behavior".

Nobody likes a freeloader, Frying Doom, especially a freeloader who leaches off his teachers. In a sense, its sort of like griefing. Please stop griefing James.

Truly, calling out James 315 and his New Order as cowards is the surest way to get them to change their ways. Their lack of e-honour can only be addressed with righteous statements such as this.

I couldn't care less about high security space. I spend most of my time with nullbears. It's okay to be open-minded (I'd like to think I am) but not so open minded that I let garbage fall in, too. My problem is his entire schtick comes off as one-note, cultish, and not really very relevant to Eve's major problems. It's easy to conflate "complexity" with substance. Eve in its entirety IS complex because it's so much more than hisec hisec miner miner.

You're posting quite a few times about highsec, for someone who doesn't care about it at all.

So let's get this straight: at first you were complaining that the NO was gullible. Now you're saying that sure, you know there are elements of satire and irony involved in the NO, but that you really have issues with the NO because it's not 'relevant to EVE's major problems?".

Well:

1. It IS actually relevant to EVE's major problems, because while carebear power creep is only one issue, it's the one which has killed more MMO's than any other single issue.

2. Even if 1. weren't true, it's laughable to attack a group of EVE players for not being "serious enough" and "having too much fun." That attack presupposes it's own futility: if the target really isn't serious, then they won't care about the attack. If they do care about the attack, then they aren't that nonserious. It's an oxymoronic accusation.

This would be more concerning if Eve was like other MMOs, but it has non-consensual pvp on as a default (which is cool).

How is there "carebear power creep"? You can still suicide gank, they still don't fleet up, and mining barges are still weak.

If it's truly obvious that James is being satirical, then you can't blame players for not really taking it too seriously.

I am honestly flabbergasted why anyone would think James' plans would save Eve.

Or by having bumping ships in hisec outside a wardec declared an exploit.

Because it's not the players who nerf or buff anything in the game, it's CCP.

Except the devs are on board with keeping non-consensual pvp intact and have been quoted as such many, many times. This is precisely why his methods are totally fine. Eve is not Ultima Online. The entire thing is a slippery slope argument, and a bad one at that.

Who cares about The New Order? Oh wait, The New Order does and tries to make it seem like everyone else does.

So, if GÇ£everyone is blueGÇ¥ how can there be baddies?

For months I have been saying that those in the New Order are nothing but a bunch of cowards, to scared to fight anyone that might shoot back.

It is so nice when James 315, admits he is too cowardly to fight against targets that want to shoot first.

This is why the New order are in Hi-sec, they hide behind CONCORD, using them for protection while at the same time abusing those people with enough guts to fly around in a ship that cannot mount a turret or missile.

Bunch of cowards.

Why aren't you making threads about how disgusting and cowardly all the highsec bears who do the EXACT same thing are?

If they abuse the mechanics to make it difficult for us, why can't we abuse the mechanics to make it annoying for them?

They're still free to gank us with catalysts.

Who is James315???

touchy about having so many 'friends' are we?

Who is James315???

A silent guardian...
