Because I don't lap up CODE propaganda when they say "we're anti-botter, honest!". Their actions speak for themselves. They attack players who clearly aren't botting, soaking up the tears, while they ignore botters leaving them to chomp on through all of the rocks. If you take a step back and really look at it, you'll see that the effect they have is the exact opposite of their claimed objective. Whether or not that is by design or through enormous oversight is up to you to decide. You accuse the one group of player with the mission to extinguish bots and bot like behaviour of botting? You must really run out of arguments if you even had some to begin with it seams.
 
 Botting is against the EULA and will therefore be reported to CCP by us if we suspect the player to use a bot. If there is a way how I can harm the bot (ISK wise, ingame) without assembling a fleet of friends (that would just be silly as he will get banned anyway) I will go to great lengths to do so as I regard bots as one of the most game destroying entities around.
 
 What are you doing against botting? Do you even care about this game?

 Based on the CSM minutes and on rational behavior. As CCP put it, the rational thing to do right now is to stay in NPC corps, and the players are doing it. Nerfing NPC corps would just exacerbate the already increasing movement to one man tax evasion corps. Again - there is no way to force people to willingly engage in combat if they don't want to. You need to offer carrots, not sticks.

 Any corp that can't defend itself against one pilot isn't a corp worth existing . . . in EvE. EvE should be harsh. Keep it that way.

 This is where I interject that the term "PvP" is general enough in a game like EVE to be essentially meaningless.
 
 Essentially, EVE is about players interacting with other players. That includes, but is not limited to, what is conventionally considered "PvP."
 
 There are enough different forms that appeal to enough different people that it's worthless to lump them all together. If EVE is a PvP game, where do I get my 8v8 balanced team PvP? Nowhere, because that's not how EVE works, and EVE is simply never going to appeal to people who want sports-style PvP.

 Mike Azariah wrote:I checked The Games Website  and, oddly, I do not see them saying that Eve is a Purely PvP game. Now I will readily admit that it is a game with PvP in it if you will do the same in respect to PvE, because that is also part of the game. Missions, mining, exploration, are things you can do where you compete (maybe) but don't have  to shoot some other player. This is a really irritating line of argument that keeps popping up. How the hell is anyone playing in a sandbox with a player driven market NOT engaged in PvP, all the time, everywhere. You don't need to shoot another player to compete with them for resources, to have an impact on the economy, or to engage in the metagame. Look at Dinsdale and Gevlon. FFS I can't believe I just had to state that to a CSM. Thank gawd I forgot to vote this year, you were on my list.

It is like they are the apostles of a religion within the game but I cannot seem to find their holy book or church. Why bring religious rhetoric into it, other than to derail the topic? We're not fanatics, and the implication is an unnecessary insult. The topic polarises opinion but that doesn't mean the participants can't take on board the arguments other people present. Don't pat us on the head on the one hand for the quality of the discussion then be so condescending towards those whose viewpoint diverges from yours.
 
 Non consensual combat makes little sense to a certain portion of the playerbase, as does allowing scams. To a lot of people (particularly those who have been playing 5 years or more) removing highsec awoxing - with whatever justification - is simply not a small change. It matters to us and it has wider implications if it's part of a trend to pacify people for the purposes of sub retention at the expense of player driven content. It's not just us who are concerned about what the game IS, CCP reiterate it from time totime, because it's an important thing to protect - and it's been under almost continuous attack since launch.

 If you are mining you are competing with other players for ressources no matter if you do it intentionally or not.
 
 If you run missions you either did build your ship with ressources you mined yourself, or you did spend ISK for it. If you loot / salvage anything you are competing with others on the market.
 
 (Show me just 1 missionrunner who never bought anything from the market and just started out running missions in a rookie ship, never sold anything, only reprocessed loot to build everything he needs. Got all the materials for T2 / faction equipment on his own -> which again is impossible to do without competing with other players).

 I'm pretty sure he didn't say the gun would have to turn off but was pointing at the fact there were no kill rights or war declaration but somehow in corp violence didn't trigger CONCORD's reaction. For someone who has been playing for a while, it makes sense because we mostly know the rules, for others, it does not because they were never told. That is the issue CCP has with it. If your corp does not teach you player on player combat can happen inside the corp without concord intervention, there isn't all that much way to find out inside the game.

I've come to expect such irrational double standards from you. You don't live in high sec and are not a new player (I at least live in high sec) so why are you in this discussion then? Because obviously it doesn't affect you either, right? 
 
 Jenn aSide wrote:Are you being deliberately obtuse or do you really not understand? Types of players who want to join in but are currently refused access to corporations because awoxing is possible, currently join the ranks of the solo highsec bear and for the most part quit. If awoxing were not, those same players would be engaging with others and may go on to play for a long time. Long terms players tend to be more capable and motivated to join in conflicts.Ain;'t that sweet, Lucas Kell thinks people who would have quit EVE if it allowed the awoxing that's been possible for 11 years will engage in 'conflict' later on lol.
 
 In all seriousness, if you aren't going to bring anything reasonable to the table and are going to continue acting like a spoiled little brat who's being told he has to share his sandpit, then I'm done with you.
