CCP set the game mechanics and define exploits of those game mechanics. Of the great variation of how these game mechanics can be used for gaming enjoyment you have defined the parameters that must be met to play the game to its full extent. BTW, you are strict about it too. This is also called elitism. Would you like me to go into that?
Like it or not, PVP is a large part of this game, you cant escape it. I dont define the parameters of how you play the game...
But if you choose to sit afk at a stargate, in a hauler loaded full of isky goodness, dont complain when my playing parameters clash with yours.
Please do not assume what my playing parameters are. In your described case we do not clash at all, for example. We even agree that pvp is only a large part of the game.
The way you put it in this post makes it sound very different from:

Is that the one were you talk all fancy and presume yourself better than me for doing so?
No, that's the one where you claim to play the game to its full extent and all other that do not confornt your our discribed interpretation are merely NPC's. That can also be called discrimination.

the people you are calling well devoloped, mature adults are simply people you decide to call well devoloped, mature adults because it matches with your views. as i have tried to say in my post before, people get angry about their own things. this is part of human diversity. think of it this way. could you french kiss another guy in return for an hr's pay? logically, there's no real reason why not. you either work for an hr or kiss for 5 seconds. as long as the other guys's mouth is clean, there's no logical reason you could give that isn not stupid or based on blind beliefs and whims. you don't need to know why someone is mad about something. you only need to know that it makes them mad. because this is a game, it should be treated as for fun. the question is for instance, in a game of beach volleyball, are you the guy that makes sure everyone has fun or the guy that has to get serious and says "me me me" and has to win.
But shouldn't part of being a well developed mature adult include something about not placeing your self knownly in a situation where your uncomfortable, or where your feelings could be hurt. A situation where such actions that are hurt-full to you are well within the rules, and perhaps encoraged?
Such is the case when someone signs up for eve-online and then gets mad when thier stuff is blown up. So no, there's a problem here. You do have to question someone who actually pay's to place themselves into a situation where they could be hurt.
well, i don't think getting hurt is the actual problem. if people were getting killed in 0.0 space i don't think anyone would come to these forums to complain. the problem is that people are getting killed in empire space and feel that there is a great deal of injustice in that.
it has been said that no place is eve is meant to be 100 percent safe, but that is really a very vague statement. all it means is that space in eve is not 100 percent, in other words it can be anywhere from 0-99 percent. the question is what is the actual percent ccp wants for a space like jita, and if the current rules does that percent.

Your lips are moving, but im not hearing what youre saying.
Probably because you're so self-absorbed... that, or your deficient comprehension of the English language. Take your pick.
I'm not here to win any popularity contests. I couldn't care less what you think of me - all that matters is this: Can you defend your opinions? |

I a player decides to avoid interaction with others...
Then I'm sorry, but I see them as nothing more than an NPC. You dont have to like it, or agree with it.
Thats just the way it is. PVP != Combat btw.

Come now, a man of your fine intellect, can surely do better than that.

When banks in Washington DC ship money from one bank to another
They dont just stuff the money into a duffle bag and load the bag into a civic
they use armored trucks
even if they go through good neighbourhoods
The point is that even if its safe, theres always the off chance that someone with an AK would ignore the consiquences for the gain
for one, i can't think of anyone who thinks that Washington D.C. could be considered 1.0 space.
second in washington d.c. there are no fleets of cops or federal agents that magically swoop in 3 seconds later to WtFPwN the attackers and if there were do you think they would allow some schmo that walks past afterward to reach into the truck for a bit of cash.
I think it's pretty safe to say that since concord has an instant response it was intended that piracy not be allowed in 1.0 space.

What more is necessary to say?
I don't want to go where you can't follow.
