Ok just a WH scanning alt popping in to let you HiSec types know that even the line from Nullsec "this is what we face every day in Null" is as you may suspect, total BS.
They do not every day in Null line up for 23 jumps. They whined and complained when that happen so now they don't have to actually fly anymore, they bridge. Only HiSec has to jump 23 jumps to get somewhere and have their fleet arrive at different times.
They do not every day even face blowing up. Most are in large Null Sec cartels renting from "the man", fattening the elites wallets and kept safe by said cartel also. Those that do PvP typically do so only when the odds favor them and/or they can pile in in huge numbers to overwhelm and blob out the enemy, press F1 when the FC tells them to and then get their ship reimbursed. Hence they do experience a lot of timelag if they are in a large cartel. That is about the only thing in common about their experience and yours in the event you joined. It's really nothing for them to brag about which is perhaps why most of them feel the need to put you down.
There are some large cartels that know every aspect of PvP, like PL but good luck ever getting in to one like that with newbie skill points.
Did Nullsec have to face a lot of danger or trouble to get to the gatecamp of this event? No they spent a couple minutes to get there and bubble up the gate and shot you in the big turkey shot. They had a few minutes to travel and a lot of warning. You had a few hours. They have sovereignty in the system you travel to, and all the ships you can't bring from hisec because they aren't allowed there and the bubbles you probably don't know how to use because they aren't allowed in hisec.
Oh and next on Mythbusters we will address the myth of how unsafe WH's are. They aren't that bad either if you know what you are doing (yes it may take a bit to learn what you are doing). My main never died once in Wormhole PVE and only died in PvP having fun mostly by choice. Yes your tower will come under attack eventually and you may lose it (once a year for us) but hey, keeps it from being boring.
The big sin of HiSec players, and the reason you will be forced into null is because you do not work for a large nullsec cartel and thus are not spending your free time fattening the wallets or paying the home mortgages of a few players in control of those cartels and those cartels have the ears of CCP.
Welcome to Eve, I hope it gets better. On the bright side if CCP has half a brain they recognize players are hungry for good events and content and maybe devote some time effort and thought to them instead of endless boring rebalancing masquerading as excuses for content. Of course for people to trust live events again from CCP they ought to show they are sincere by firing whoever planned this one. And no I don't think we have to coddle CCP by worrying about their dear little feelings "oh noes they may never do another live event again if we don't like this one". It's their game, and they can chose to trash it if they want by continuing their current course.
Yes CCP, HTFU. Get better. Stop making excuses. When I read about this event I felt like OMG cat. Hire or transfer someone to do this right after showing you are serious by firing whoever planned this one. Maybe the next person planning events will pay attention finally if this one gets fired. |
