I'll tell you what confuses me about these threads.
Who doesn't like blowing things up? if the ppl complaining/confused about being destroyed really don't understand then just look at other games you have played. PPl enjoy to blow **** up, it's a fact.
Who here hasn't played GTA or something similar and taken great pleasure from mowing down innocent civilians on the streets. was this profitable in any way, not really, was it great sport and a challenge, no, but it was really funny
So why just because the thing ur blowing up has a real person controlling it, is it any different in eve. It's fun to watch things explode and know that u caused it.
Now call it retarded, call it a deficiency of something in real life if you want, but i can't help thinking that if some ppl actually went out and tried commiting random acts of violence and destruction then everyone would enjoy it.
At the end of the day it's boys and their toys, explosions, guns, fighting etc. and it's all great fun.

yes eve is only a game but surly the fact that people spend alot of time in the game means that to many it is more than just a game becaue of the time & real life money spent
there are those who can make real money form selling their millions of isk (rules??) for real money
so some would argu that this is just a game but imo they are very narrow minded
games are no fun if you keep getting the crap beaten out of you for no reason
Your point is completely retarded. You basically saying that for ppl that sell isk on ebay we are messing with their real life. well... good. i feel quite satisfied that i'm screwing up ppl that break the rules of eve and destroy the game for the rest of us by making money of a game that they shouldn't do.
but this is just a game, whatever way u look at it. the game is designed so ppl going into low sec are afraid constantly of getting blown up. that's what the game designers want and if u don't like it then don't play the game. narrow minded no, true yes

i disagree with a lot of the things u just said lifewire.
complexes isk potential is extremely high as most ppl take faction bs or faction fitted bs into them. i've made a small fortune from killing complexers.
secondly 0.0 is high threat lvl but also very high earning potential if ur good. risk v reward is quite balanced in eve atm. pvp'ers often use good equipment and carriers are still only owned by a very small percentage of eve and haulers are still used a lot with high end mins and equipment in.
0.0 belts i would say very few ppl log or instantly warp to ss as eve is full of plebs who stay there for ages after u enter local.
the rest of what u said i fully agree with tho

Well that's fair enough i guess. I was just disagreeing with the 'low isk potential' implication for complexers which when u've killed 2 faction bs faction fitted and several other ships including a navy raven with 1.5bil in module i'd say they're not low gain.
But ur right gate pirating is the most profitable pirating by far, but also the most boring

Ahhh i guess so. not really done gate camping in a very long time. so you get the money and the fighting mixed with very short bouts of boredom. Guess it's nice when there are groups of anti-pie's about which i rarely seem to find.
Well this all adds the explanations here. so gate camping is not only profitable in certain areas but can also stir up trouble which is what we like

Garnet Strife is a classic gatecamper, just sits at Metserel gate all night.
Attempting to enlarge his e-peen (yep mangina) by killing people in 2 or more vs 1.
Super high skilled pvp that, zoneline camping...
And how exactly do u know that's the reason for him doing it. maybe he isn't interested in the sport when he's doing that. maybe he doesn't care if it's a challenge he just wants to blow stuff up and have fun.
and maybe your just some egit using an alt to slate someone when u have never pvp'd in ur life. just maybe
sigh... breath
