Just don't vote for him.
My constellations of fortune have been thoroughly thanked for the fact that he is not running again.
The current crop of candidates actually has very few "carebears" in them, and I honestly don't count Steve Ronuken as a carebear, because he doesn't have the ****ty attitude required to qualify as a carebear.

Which, for a lawyer, is rather embarrassing if you ask me. "Verily, I have often laughed at the weaklings who thought themselves good because they had no claws."

If they think they should be immune to the actions of others? Yep, they can unsub for all I care.
Quote: Why bother with actual PvP when you've got all those tasty defenceless targets in highsec that won't shoot back?
The real question is, why does this game have so many people who refuse to act in accordance with the reality of the game? Why do people plod along, falsely secure in their self delusion that other players can't effect them?
If you ask me, that's tantamount to mental illness.
Oh, and all PvP is real PvP. You don't get to redefine the term to attempt to strip legitimacy away from the activity. That's just petty, childish, and proves that you don't have anything resembling a real argument. "Verily, I have often laughed at the weaklings who thought themselves good because they had no claws."

Xen Solarus wrote:
Of course computer games are about having fun, but in EvE its a balance between the two sides of the argument. Those that want to get their PvP fix have the entire galaxy, but instead choose to stick close to those that have no interest. In this case, one persons fun can ruin anothers, and if done to a too large extent, could lead to people not having fun in their play styles, and leaving the game. That, is not a good thing for EvE, regardless of how many of the highsec hater crowd would claim.
Wardecs are a seperate issue, thats real PvP in highsec. Groups like RvB are awesome in that regard.
How disingenuous. We aren't the ones who threw away live and let live, tried to campaign to CCP to legislate other people's playstyles out of existence. That would be your side.
"I want PvP to happen" vs. "I want PvP to NEVER happen" is not this clash of equal philosophies like you would like to portray.
One wants to play the game the way the game exists. The other one wants to change the game, because he has chosen a zero sum equation. He has staked the claim that the way he plays means that other people aren't allowed to have fun the way they want to.
One is a gamer. The other is a petulant child. "Verily, I have often laughed at the weaklings who thought themselves good because they had no claws."

Lolwhat.
Quote: Those that do are simply trying to defend their solo-play from those that would see it destroyed for their own selfish gratification. I ask again, why do these players even go to highsec, if they hate that area so much?
There is no "solo-play" in an MMORPG. It's sheer entitlement to think otherwise, and I will happily continue to disabuse people of that false notion. In fact, to answer your question, that's why I live in highsec. To bring massively multiplayer content to people who try and deny that such a thing exists.
Because I hate the way they bleat and moan about how they think they should be left alone. If they really do think that, then they are playing the wrong game. Star Trek "Online" is: ------> That way.

Ganking is actually 100% risk. CONCORD will destroy your ship 100% of the time.
Taking steps to mitigate the effect of that risk and profit from it is EVE gameplay in the truest fashion. "Verily, I have often laughed at the weaklings who thought themselves good because they had no claws."

What you're describing isn't a "suicide gank". It's a "stupid gank" attempt. right so tell us, guy who doesn't know a damn thing about suicide ganking, how do you take the necessary steps to ensure that the wreck has the valuable goodies you're looking for? let me help you because you don't seem to understand these things: when you blow up a player's ship, each module and stack in its cargo has a 50% chance of surviving the destruction of the ship and being in the resulting wreck
Heck I've been in on kills where the freighter/hauler itself has dropped less than 10% of it's value. The loot fairy will getcha. "Verily, I have often laughed at the weaklings who thought themselves good because they had no claws."

So you waste time trying to get proof of an absolute. You just sat here and spent like 3 pages or so worth of posting demanding I provide you with an absolute, which means an absolute is important to you.
Considering you kept reposting a false dichotomy for several pages earlier today? I find this incomparably amusing. "Verily, I have often laughed at the weaklings who thought themselves good because they had no claws."

Don't worry about taking a picture, he does it all the time.
So you're suggesting that I don't exist? I have been accused of having some pretty weird supernatural powers on this forum lately, but this is a new one. "Verily, I have often laughed at the weaklings who thought themselves good because they had no claws."
