In fact, you'd have to know the chance to know that it is certain.
Something either has a chance of happening or not - By a process of elimination, something that is certain has a chance of happening.
If you measure how often an event occurs, the result can be 100%.

This is just rhetoric now. What's the actual point? Risk vs certain doom?
If that's the point, then everyone who undocks accepts the risk of losing their ship and in so doing, is accepting the certainty that they are going to lose a ship, whether it is a certainty or not. I undock fully expecting to lose what I'm in all the time, regardless of the odds, because that's EVE.

Jam those ones first, and kill them last.GÇ¥

And I'm actually done with this little argument now too, while I am right (as it happens I'm typing probabilities into a model in another window, and they do not transmogrify into something else if I type in 1 or 0) and it has been amusing, I feel bad if I maintain this level of shiptoasting for too long.

Also, who necro'd the thread 
Quoted from Doc Fury: "Concerned citizens: Doc seldom plays EVE on the weekends during spring and summer, so you will always be on your own for a couple days a week. Doc spends that time collecting kittens for the on-going sacrifices, engaging in reckless outdoor activities, and speaking in the 3rd person." |

Yep. I remember CCP's marketing campaign with the slogan "Be the Villain". These days, if you're a villain, you are banned. |

Code are not the bravest PVPers....satisfied?
They take no risk when it comes to assets. The assets (gank ships) are calculated loss and already written off.

Yeah, no.
When people hide in station absolutely most of the time,
even if some would rather actually play outside instead of waiting for a scout to find a target ...
... and then have to spend GCC inside the station again because the incompetent FC says so ....
... then one can not use the word "brave" and "CODE" in the same line.
Thank you, Evora Pirkibo,
for being so incredibly mindless and automatic,
that you could not resist bringing this thread up again.

I miss the old days.
When a n00b miner in lowsec wasnt able to pay the ransom (based on his ship I told him 1 mil) .. I made him mine Kernite for me - into a can.
When the can was full - I let him go.
Now? People laugh at you and tell you to shoot them and go f**k yourself.

Who says I am offended.. Maybe you want to read between the lines :P
Even if you say "Good Day Sir, nice ship you have there - it would be a shame if I turned it into a wreck, wouldnt it?" The response is usually very hostile :P Manners.. I have them ! |

I'll lay it out for you again, noob.
Your fleets sit in station until a target is scouted by a neutral alt.
Then you undock, warping on the shortest route to the target.
Then you hide in station again.
If that's "brave" then me, my former corpmates and d400 were superheroes.
Now please go back into your station and keep hiding, noob.

Oh, so you admit that you just rip my words out of context ...
... can't address my points ...
... and also admit that you are just a skill-less gankbear and coward, who hides all day.
lol the wannabees I have to deal with ....
Thanks, noob. :)

Would you please back off?
Your cowardish, rage induced tears water down my precious coffee .... :(
We both know I'm the better one ...

You are right, I usually just dock and do something else when on GCC. I don't feel the need to pointlessly bounce around in an empty pod and call it "brave" and "art". I don't see why you think that is something special and shows skill.
Also DJ would probably tell me to back off and don't get you worked up so much about such a little thing. And I would then answer "Eeeeh, but it's so much fun". cheers

As I would have to remove about two third of the posts from the point this thread got necro'd because of some rule violation or the other (and those quoting them), I might as well lock this thread.
So hereby, it's done.
