I'm not sure if a harry forever thread is a litmus test for the majority of high-sec.
I mean anecdotally, I don't care about null secs income, but I'm sure some do, but it doesn't mean everyone in hi-sec cares about null sec or even a majority cares.
I mean have you started a poll asking hi-sec people what they thought null sec?
You know, i've found something that you high sec folks have in common. You tend to try to "fill in the blanks" with what amount to guesses rather than reading a statement in it's simplest possible context. you're doing the same thing Caliph mohammed did.
Where did I say anything about the majority of high sec? I said "high sec posters". most EVE players don't post on the forms.
Quote: How do you know what the majority of them thinks then?
You're just making assumptions as usually from your personal perspective and assuming they are the facts for everyone.
I'm not really whining and complaining about imbalances, I am simply asking for evidence with actual hard data.
Its what everyone should do... Even on facts like global warming, you should ask "Show me the evidence for your global warming!" and people then can show you a consensus of a great deal of scientists data and you can go "Ok that makes sense!"
Otherwise you just assume what everyone on the internet tells you is true and you're going to have a bad time if you do that.
This is the problem with your way of thinking and why you tend to be wrong. You make assumptions about meaning instead of asking for clarification of meaning (and , like others, when your misunderstanding is presented to you, you get defensive).
In college I remember taking the standard communications course where we talked about barriers to communication. You tend to display many of them, it would help us all if you'd stop for a second and realize you're doing that.
I do not know or care what a majority of high sec thinks, btw.

OK Jenn, right now provide tangible evidence that EVEs economy is in bad shape and provide tangible evidence hisec missioning is the reason.
Do not reply with hot air and tripe. People reading the thread including the devs know the difference.
That's two distinctly outlined requests of evidence to support your claim. |

Provide me tangible evidence that I ever said anyhting of the sort. That's really your problem. You tried to put words into my mouth, someone decided that I was making a claim I wasn't then when I don't back up a claim I never made, you declare victory. It simply means you are a liar at heart. Go back, read what I said, then lets talk about that. We aren't asking you to tell us that you can provide data, we are asking you to back up your statements with actual evidence. Thats not putting words into your mouth, that is asking you if you can prove what you say is true. If you can't provide evidence with data from CCP, then well we have no logical reason to believe you.
Ok, link the statement. Both of you are too biased to see your own mistakes in the discussion. That Caliph guy is claiming that I said missions are somehow killing the EVE economy, he litterally blamed me for his own cognitive shortcomings lol. And I'm saying that this is very common amongst the high sec poster crowd.
The smarter thing to do is say "I don't get what you are saying, please clarify". It is the mark of a lazy mind to just to conclusions as you two seem to do. |

And now you're just trolling, which is jiuvenile. You're not an adult and this not worth replying to.
All you have to do is go back in this thread, find where I made such a claim and link it.

The risk is acceptable as well. The faster you wish to complete the missions the more ISK you put into the ship. Any evidence to the contrary can be provided as well. |

You'll have to forgive me for not taking your claims seriously after Tippa has repeatedly refuted them only for you to deny them outright without any logic, cogent argument, or thought behind it. Making outlandish claims with the intention of abandoning your position and instead go on circular spins does not constitute logical, cogent arguments. And labeling your ideas and opinions as "fact" and "logical" doesn't make them so either.
Quote:~~~~Highsec is safe~~~~ Perfect example here. Are you going to present facts to defend your original statement that hi sec is "completely safe"? Or is it going to be the usual and go on a spin ride and move goal posts around?
In before it's already been proven numerous times with facts, logic, and ISO standards that hi sec is "completely safe" and there really is no need to prove it any further ;). |

No Tippia, it is not my responsibility to write out his thoughts. It's his responsibility to make clear to those reading it what precisely he feels. I've read the entire thread and understand as best anyone could and that's where my responsibility ends. You are more than welcome to summarize his points if you feel you understand them well enough to do so and have the care to repost them for him. |

Quote:I've read enough to understand as best anyone could and that's where my responsibility ends. GǪuntil you start making claims that you are then unwilling to support. You seem to have stacked up a number of claims about things he has supposedly said, and you also seem very unwilling (or is it unable?) to prove that actually has said anything of the kind.
So you really have two options: stop making those claims and stop drawing too far-reaching conclusions and accusations based on those claims, or demonstrate where you got your notions from so they can be addressed properly.

I don't have to demonstrate anything and repeating it again isn't going to make it so. I think at this point you'd be better off summarizing his points that you clearly understand and everyone else fails to grasp. Feel free. |

That's not what I said at all. In the context of the conversation you're attempting to force me into i'm not making any assertions. You are. So its on you to prove I do not understand his points.
You can start by summarizing his points and then highlighting of those which I didn't grasp by pointing out the argument I made that didn't consider them. |

I have to say that I find it absolutely precious that whenever I produce these back-of-the-envelope calculations of the sheer amount of wealth (ISK, LP, items, all totalled up) generated by hi-sec missions, it never ever fails to generate a huge shitstorm of denial, rage, obfuscation and desperate attempts to divert the discussion to something - anything else to obscure the simple fact that a single high population mission hub generates more wealth than all the high end moons combined.
Anyway, please do carry on. We can get this one to 50 pages easily. I know you guys can do it.

And i've already done that, and yet of all the posters here, only you and maybe Tardbar have misunderstood (or exaggerated) that which i said. That should tell you something.
Quote: I've read the entire thread and understand as best anyone could and that's where my responsibility ends.
This is where you keep falling off. You don't understand what I've said and have blamed me for YOUR inability to understand a nuanced position. You've gone so far as to deliberately lie about what I'm saying, probably to make yourself feel better after realizing you misunderstood.
I never said missions were killing EVE, that the EVE economy is in bad shape or anything of the sort. I said there is an imbalance and that imbalance going on for long enough means bad things down the road. I've offered ideas on fixing the imbalances (like increase risk in missions, or tags/materials system instead of bounties for not only missions but also anoms including null sec anoms ct ect) and have demonstrated why other people's proposed ideas for fixing the imbalances (buff null sec) is a bad idea given recent history (the anomalies nerf for example).
I've yet to meet a poster who takes what i'm about to say to heart, but I'll say it anyways: Your problem is with you and your perceptions (and lack of communication skill, among other issues). It's not with me. Stop blaming me for you faults.

It's the standard human reaction to "omg, my lifeline is threatened" lol. I remember your Upton sinclair quote on the matter .
As for the moons vs mission hub issue you mention, my theory is that high sec people can't really grasp it because they tend to be loners and solo players. They don't see all the wealth mission produce, the see their paltry cut of it. Add that to an unhealthy over-estimation of null sec wealth generation and blam, they feel like the rich null lords are trying to take away their paltry slice of land and kill their mules lol.
They misunderstand because they can't relate. |
