Stealing or threatening to blow up required mission items is a safe and easy way to earn income as a pirate.

Remember what happened to miner ganking?

What does allowing people to screw with you in high sec missions, with zero risk and zero cost, bring to the game?

EVE is a game of skullduggery. If you want to be safe and left alone, dock up

Many players in this game will not "play" the game unless the deck is mercilessly stacked in their favor.

What's being described in this thread I think easily qualifies as being "griefing" even if it is "legitimate".

Why does everything have to be about "fail" and it's opposite? It's a game for crying out loud.

The things you tell yourself seriously makes me laugh.

Try not to be so obviously mad and maybe someone will take you seriously if you ever come up with a decent argument.

Try harder with your hair slicing Pipa. You are pathetic.

I'm just trying to draw attention to the hypocrisy and double standard promoted by many our more "hardcore" players. These people lecture carebears on risk, implying that they're brave risk takers themselves. In reality, many of these same players have learned to be "successful" by consistently putting nearly NOTHING on the line.

It's pure crazy to me, people jump on me when I tell people like this that the problem isn't EVE it's them, but that's just how I see it.

This game would be dead if it weren't for high-sec.

Is that the best you've got?

They actually think this is a game where sheep are meant to be lined up to slaughter for them at the click of a button.

PVP v PVP, one side gets advantage from clever tactics they call it a Exploit

half this board is made of whine posts by aliiances about pvp and pvp mechanics.

how is scanning down a deadspace site in high sec outplaying someone?

Seems to me you just have a chip on your shoulder about people making Isk from anything in high sec.

What you continually ignore is the balance. When you can do it in high sec, the outcome will never be harsh for the pirate, it can only harsh for the mission runner. Do you still not see how this is imbalanced?

You see, like a simpleton, you can only see this from one perspective, and the imbalance is ignored.

A shining example of a CSM

And you are crying about perceived crying. What does that make you?. BTW, nobody died. You get it wrong a lot, don't you? Try coming up with a decent argument or GTFO this discussion before you embarrass yourself further, kid.

brought friends

And why should one sociopathic loser be able to cause you that much trouble in high sec anyway?

Don't you clowns have a single decent argument?

FITE ME IRL

Haven't you embarrassed yourself enough in this thread already with that clearly flawed thinking? I really wouldn't be surprised at all if you voted to re-elect Bush.
