Sure there's room for good people to make a difference.

You could start by becoming an ISK Doubler and making everyone happy.

Personally i would say that people like Chribba is one that is counted as a "good guy", which is possibly why so many people trust him and use his services.

So yes, there is room to be "the good guy", and since there is so few i also think that its one of the...titles? that stand out more in EVE where most are labeled as "bad guys".
And of course.. i would think its a lot harder to get known as a "good" person then as a "bad" person since good things rarely get as much publicity or gets acknowledged in the same way as "This person stole X amount of ISK from ***** ! Biggest heist in the history of EVE!" as an example.

I remember who Chribba is. For the life of me I can't remember the name of any corp heister regardless of the theft size.

That actually made me smile. I mean I probably won't take up on the idea, oh wise offer of wisdom, but at least it gave me a chuckle. Besides if I was to ever feel the urge to lose a couple of zeros from my wallet, it'd probably be in the newbie areas.

there isn't really good but there's lawful.

for example CVA, they operate on a Not Red Don't Shoot basis so they don't shoot neutrals in their space (for the most part)

Baaa, what's Concord other than the biggest gankers in the game (the kill boards show the truth of this)?

Since we're all immortal it's literally impossible to kill a man, or woman (or man pretending to be a woman).

If you can't break the law by killing someone, then the concept of lawful is a bit fuzzy; and really just a relative term.

That is, it means nothing. Just do what you want to do.

No, good is not me giving you all my stuff. Bless you for even thinking of even thinking of typing that.

I think a lot of people who shy away from the general purposelessness of pvp would appreciate it a lot more if they felt they were on the side of something beyond their own narrow self-interest, gang mentality, and/or personal achievement. That's not to devalue the existing reasons for conflict, just to add another one and draw in more people who have little gameplay incentive to enter into conflict with other players.

Rumor has it that I am indeed a 'Good Guy' in RL.



Too bad you all have to know the absolute ******* ******* that I am on this **** piece of ************ load of ***** in a bucket of **** with an extension cord wrapped around a ******** while riding a ********** backwards wearing ***** on his face **** Forum.

There's lots of good people I'm sure, but not many of them has the strength or time to show it as the way to get the label is very long.

I am a Space Hippy at heart, lets get that out of the way. At the core of my being, under all the angst and pent up British rage is a person who'd at least like to see the Eve Universe a better place then when I came into it, yet as a game I'm finding it hard to translate that part of myself into meaningful Eve based actions. I know Eve is mainly PvP based and making isk, but it's left me asking the question that is there room in New Eden for good people to make changes using in game mechanics for the betterment and enjoyment of everyone? No, I don't mean fitting up a faction fit Tengu and sitting on a Low to Null gate and shouting "Come get some bitches", and I don't mean getting involved in Null Sec wars - whilst I respect people's love for working towards a common goal, they tend to be power based, either money, territory or who has the biggest e-***** via the kill boards*. All morally grey areas depending on which side of the fence you're sitting on. But that also means that kind actions do some more magnified. People I've had help from through out my time on Eve have always been remembered with warmth for the most part, and passing on the karma is always something I strive to do one way or another.


I guess the Even tonight kind of left me mulling over whether it's possible to actually be a good guy in the dark, cold confines of space? Actually how do you even define being 'good' in such a game? Or is being a good guy down to which side of the fence you sit on?

(Apologies for using the word 'good' by the wayApologies for using the word 'good' by the way. I know it's a rather poor adjective, but it's more universal and a hell of a lot easier to define at gone 4am.)


* I am not good at PvP. In fact I'd say I'm pretty bad at it due to anxiety issues, but I still give it a go on occasions.

I suppose 'good' could be defined as being altruistic. Then again you'll find that those who get labeled as 'evil' take care of their own, too.. Goons being the clearest example.

You should do whatever you like. Drawing attention to yourself to underline your own perceived moral superiority does make you look a little emo, even if you're just flirting with it by bringing it forward as a cute question.

The most valuable thing you can own in this game is trust.
