Also cause I'm solo 9/10 times or know I can't take the other guy in a 1v1. Thx for an (actual) intersting post. Why do you feel that you cannot take the other guy? Lack of SP? Lack of piloting skills? Lack of fitting abilities? Being outclassed by ship types? More info if you please.
Usually because of any of the following: -I am aware of what the ship is capable of in a general sense. For instance, not a good idea to take on a vaga without my own speed and tracking to hit him in the first place. Or don't take a curse in an active tanked ship. -Piloting skills. More just self doubt here. I don't PVP often enough to really consider myself good at it. I'll inevitably do something stupid like forget to overheat or burn out my guns, or let my transversal go low enough that I get vollied hard. -Fitting. Maybe I'm PVE fit at the time, or I don't know that my ASB can last. This one really bleeds into the pilot skill thing though. -Paranoia. He's not actually gonna do a 1v1.
SP is not a problem. I'm at 94 mill and have Mastery 3 on nearly every sub cap, the exceptions being CSes as I'm working on my gang link spec skills atm :P I can use all T2 guns of all sizes and types and the same for missiles. I have maxed out cap and fitting skills (except maybe fuel conservation and shield upgrades). I can fly all the T2 ships besides most of the caldari, the gallente BSes and non-amarrian transport ships. Can fly logi, have logi 5, have armor, shield and cap transfer skills at 5, can fly all 4 dreads and 2 of 4 races' carrier. Aside from training the capital gun and tanking skills higher I can pretty much do w/e I want xD The Drake is a Lie |

tyvm Have a nice day. When I see you kneeling in a corner in HALO, i'll wave and know that you are doing what you want to do with your xbox live subscription. Thank you for edumacating me. Listen jaggoff, the day you see me in Halo is the day I'll have myself put out of my own misery for senility. I bet you fancy yourself a badass. Children like you are a dime a dozen on my street. Find what you want where you want when you want. Just, don't bend over to pick up the soap...or do. You seem the type who'd enjoy it.
Jesus... everything from bending over and picking up on the soap to seeing me on the street. That is a disproportional amount of butthurt and rage dude 
For your information... I completely and totally suck at halo. I am like really, really terribad. How those ninja's acquire such super human abilities is beyond me.
Oh and... in case you didn't know. The game you are playing was born a pvp based MMORPG, so it's pvp health is a relevant topic whether you want to hide in a hole or not. Stick your head in the ground somewhere, it is more fun to fight actual players who can give you a run for your money.

I believe I said that I cannot find fights and when I do they are loaded with RR, the deck is stacked strongly in the other person's favor and/or blob.
You see... you do have a problem. Admitting it is the first step to getting help.

Serene Repose reported for posting insinuations intended to incite rage. Probably should report a couple of other players as well but I'm tired of this sub-forum.
Now about the thread topic. Correct me if I'm wrong but isn't there only a couple of areas on the test server where CCP allows players to engage in 1v1 or PvP combat?
That might explain the reason for the duel decline.
Anyway I've got to somewhat agree with the OP. Within the past couple of years I've noticed the average mentality in this game is all about 'Instant Gratification'. Seems more than ever now the only time anyone actually 'Risks' anything is only when there's a guaranteed 'Reward'.
Thus the whole 'Risk v Reward' mantra everyone keeps spouting is nothing more than a smokescreen, done only when the situation favors them in some way.

Well whoever you are and however you think you know me, i sure seemed to have left an impression. Ultimately however, this is not a game of hopscotch on a sidewalk. Being nice is a requirement for being in a fleet, it is not a requirement to get people to undock and shoot you in the face.
I mean... come on.... How can you expect people to buy that?

Well thx for actually posting and talking to me in this thread 
All I can really says is that if you like something then it's worth practicing. If you practice it you will might get better at it, and when you are better at it you might have more motivation to do it.
Referring to your Vagabond analogy, I'll take on a Vagbond any day in a nanod hurricane and win 10/10. Cheap is awesome and you don't care if you lose it.

Train for ishtar. Practice dropping sentries and running away as fast as possible. You are ready for null pvp.

I can't really picture that kind of thinking to be honest, and the people posting here are the only ones raging. And to be completely frank, ll i ever really do is give back snoody remarks in real time. I may laugh at your proclaimed ability and I may question your ability to read when you deliberately/mistakenly misquote what I type. But I don't go raging on people's mothers, siblings or call them varying forms of extriment.
So if you can't take a little pithy comeback, maybe don't dish it out or as loud of a braggart. I am not talking about you specifically, just people in general. TBH, atm I don't know who you are even though you seem to know of me.

Why is it people can't read here... is it the age group I am dealing with?
Any fight involving a role of the dice, not stacked against you from the get go by being vastly outnumbered or having enough RR to make the fight pointless. This thread is about people not wanting to fight unless they have the cards stacked in their favor. It is not a pro-1v1 only style pvp thread.
For god sakes read.

Laugh away.
There it is nothing unreasonable in presuming that a RIPARDMOBILE is referring to a ******** repair mobile, a rr ambulance or repairmobile. If all you can do is laugh at that little tidbit, then you have entirely missed the subject at hand. So thx for not commenting on the topic, adding nothing of substance one way or the other... oh and... basically displaying the kind of stupidity and narrow mindedness these forums are known for.

I have been told that the new faction warfare is awesome. I have not bothered giving it a shot yet because... well... I remember what it was when I left. It was not so great.
Even if it turns out to be everything that I have ever looked for in a game (which I cannot fathom happening) this does not change the general behavior of the blustery PVP'ers living in the rest of the board. And so we can still discuss it.
Ya know, you people trolling this thread are scarcely even speaking to whether or not you feel this behavior exists or not. You're just slinging monkey poop as if to conceal it's existence. Maybe denying it in yourselves

You started the whole attacks about reading comprehension, so don't go all pouty now when your own comprehension fails. Wrong comprehension is wrong comprehension, even if you think it might have been right.
If you want people to address the topic only and not the other remarks made, then stick to addressing the topic yourself.
But if you can't handle it, don't dish it out.

Sorry bud, being out of the loop in current eve meme's is not the same as wildly taking a post out of context. Nice try though, you have a pretty good troll angle atm. You have had allot of practice evidently.
Now if you would be so kind as to actually address the topic, I would be interested in what you have to say. If not, then I guess you're just another EVE forum resident with his/her own agenda.
