This is exactly what I mean when i say that some of us are suited to (and like) the realities of EVE whereas others would rather it changed to the uninteresting 'mass appeal' crap that is the rest of the MMO world.

I often wonder what the people that cry CARE BEAR to anyone that does any type of non pvp activity would do if everyone just stopped and started doing nothing but pvp.

To much time being popped seems to of scrambled the PVP'ers brains cause they fail to understand how this game works.

Then she doesnt do the market, or mine in other people's belts then.

Agh PW... my poor eyes and wallet

It's a certain mindset... a predominantly male one... but a discussion like that would blow up this thread.

Really, that's the big thing. The people who play EVe whole hating EVE (and it's communty) are 'have cake + eat cake' people. They want all the excitement and fun but don't want to pay the price.

That's why they predicted that EVE would die to STO (now it's Star Citizen), they don't understand that the things they think they want to change are actually yhe HOOKS that keep them in the game.




(i've been waiting to use this analogy lol)

These people are like this girl i knew in college (damn it, was that really 20 years ago???).

So i knew this girl and boy let me tell you, she was hot. Seemingly nice girl, pretty, smart, ambitious. I instantly liked her and tried to get with her. And instantly got 'Friend Zoned' (though we didn't have a word for it in the dark ages lol).

So like any idiot, I stuck around to be her 'friend' hoping she'd come to her senses and eventually give me 'some'. So OF COURSE as her 'friend', i get introduced to every emo, thugged out, tatt'd up, insensitive 'only wants one thing' loser she meets and beds (because of course all she really wants is a 'nice guy', at least that's what she says while doing the exact opposite lol).

So when i tell her that she doesn't really know what she wants, I get rebuked. Then 'Mr Bad Guy' does what EVERYONE (but her) knows he's going to do and screws her over. All of a sudden I had to listen to "why are you men always such jerks??".... Like her own choices have nothing to do with it.

Eventually, people like that get tired enough of getting screwed over and then get with a 'nice guy' (which even then turned out to not be me, remember, i was already friend zoned and no woman wants to screw her 'play-brother'......grrrr Chicks). AND then they get bored and in short order end right back in the arms of some new douchebag to start the cycle all over again while Mr nice guy is heart broken over it....


EVE is that douchy dude that gets all the hot chicks lol. it's because the hot chicks don't understand themselves enough to understand why they are attracted to someone who they also can't stand lol. Games like STO are the nurtuing good guys that the hot girl CLAIM she wants but in reality would just bore her to death with all that niceness and bland safety.

TL;DR. Miners are hot chicks. Go screw them, it's for their own good.

no more mining, no more research, NO MORE BUILDING OF SHIPS!

Without those people that you condemn to be care bears, you wouldn't have any ships to fly, nor any ships to blow up, so stop your senseless whining about people who like to do other things than blow people up.

Me i like to do nearly all parts of this game, i mine to build my own ships so i can pvp or pve depending on what type of mood i'm in, but cause i actually do some form of PVE i'm labeled as a a care bear.

If you are in for ganker tears,
roll a char, skill thrasher and a bit of gunnery.

Seek out gankers,
wait until they strike and blow up the victims wreck.

Works better with gate gankers.

I know....but I don't want to "gank" anyone. I have no desire to fly a fighting ship past a catalyst for factional warfare (if that's still around for Legion)

I like to mine/haul/manufacture and sell. My wallet is why I'm here and it needs to be getting fatter all the time.

Personally I suggest the Thrasher as well for doing that. If you split your guns, you can get the wreck and get the pod of the ganker if you are quick enough at it.

Although I know a guy who counter ganks in a T1 exploration frigate, for extra humiliation.

Well **** me right, I just found out I'm a hot chick.

Well, all areas are currently ahead of tears. Mining is just staggeringly so.

So, tell me how Eve is about PvP again?
