... assuming OP removed all text from her post because it was 100% bullonium.
This is the rule:-á In Eve it's always a trick. If you don't think it's a trick, you just don't have enough experience to know what the trick is. That doesn't mean you shouldn't launch on that fool anyway and roll the dice. |

Was wondering when I'd get to this post in this thread. Its like finally getting to the tootsie roll center of a tootsie pop.

Varius Xeral wrote:Let's take a hypothetical game, we'll call it "EBE Online". This game has consistently for ten years running been generally unremarkable in every classic metric for measuring mainstream videogames. However, EBE Online has one defining characteristic that distinguishes it from all other mainstream games, we'll call this hypothetical characteristic " emerbent gameplay". Despite being consistently mediocre or worse in all the usual characteristics of videogames, EBE Online manages to consistently survive and generally grow year after year for a decade while almost every other mainstream game dies in flames around it.
Who in their right mind would look at this situation and suggest that dumbing down emerbent gameplay is the key to unlocking greater success for EBE Online?
Ask CCP I guess. Apparently several people there feel just that way.

Ah, yes. A recent one also is that I cry myself to sleep at night clutching my huge, pink, fluffy teddybear whilst remembering how my parents molested me.
Not even a month in, and I have learned so much about myself.
Hey there's nothing wrong with having a huge fluffy teddybear, and nobody will think less of you for having one in bed. RIght guys? Shutup I've had it since I was little and it's comfy. Kinda creepy to have in bed during sexual relations, though. The eyes, they watch.....
Teddybear doesn't judge. Just wants you to be happy.

As someone who leads ganking fleets accross highsec, I can assure you that it is not mindless & a lot of work goes in to chaining successful ganks. The only thing miners see is the end result.
"I had no idea how much work this is. I thought you guys just undocked and wrecked ****." -- quote from newbie on their 2nd night of ganking with us.

So i've learned that gankers are incompetent sociopaths that fail at EvE in every way. Just wondering what that makes the miners who die at the hands of these Eve failures? I've seen in this thread and others, gankers referred to school yard bullies which is an insult to miners. Unlike in real life, in a video game (except pay-to-win which Eve is not), everyone is given the same tools to make their way. You can choose what ships you fly, how you equip them, and where you fly them. Eve is fundamentally a competitive game. You must compete with other players for whatever resources you are after. You'll win some and you will loose some.
If gankers are school yard bullies and incompetants, then that portrays the miners are weaklings and even more incompetant. I'lll not accept that. We're all demigods of the same galaxy. Just last night 3 of us launched on a hulk flying 1 t2 cat and 2 t1 cats. Killed dozens of Hulks with far less dps before. Landed on target, locked him up and got to blasting. Then a flight of shield maint drones from the hulk came out. Another flight from the Orca nearby. We never even got to his armor. It was fantastic. We offered 'gf's in local and watched our cats explode while the hulk didn't miss a cycle. The guy was at the keyboard, knew we were coming, and had a plan to beat us. That guy was neither weak nor incompetant.
You can adapt to the losses, or blame the other guy.

Looked like 2 to me. Maybe it was only one. I only had 20secs to find out before it all ended hilariously.

You seem kind of angry. Would you like to talk it out? Lady Areola Fappington has a teddybear we could use to roleplay some scenes.. work on your issues.

I don't feel busted. I feel like a guy who saw a bunch of shield maint bots and who lost a gank on a hulk. The point of the story is miners can protect themselves. They don't. But that isn't my fault or CCPs fault. Its theirs. Ganking doesn't make me a bully any more than it makes the miners weak. If they're weak, they choose to be so.

Will have to give my gunnery skills a little love, I hate to say it but I've been seriously neglecting them. From what I've been reading it seems that it's pretty much blasters or bust.
I hate to hijack this Star Citizen thread, but you could get a stealth bomber, put light missles on it, and kill explorers in lowsec and nullsec running data/relic sites with wanton abandon. Just have to wait until they've opened a few cans so there is some decent loot.

You do this too?!
I thought I was the only crazy freak who puts T2 rockets on my SB, and stalks explorers! I get crap from people all the time for doing it, but it works so well.
I have not tried it. But there is a guy in the minerbumping channel who has had good success with it. There is this JonnyPew video discussing the fit. I've only recent gotten my sb pilot out of mothballs to look for a wormhole to call home. She has torps and just tonight taught a lesson on Polarization to an itty (or whatever its called now) pilot in a C1 on their hisec wh.
