Well took a trip to Thera today and ended up jumping back to a new clone. All the structures had warp disruption fields around them so for pve is a waste of time! I understand that there is no security there but being able to put a warp disruption field around a non-player station is kinda lame. You would think RP wise the owners of the station would destroy it so their ships can get in and out. So for explorers and PVE players stay away from Thera is just another pvp area! |

It is a wormhole system after all. If it was nullsec it wouldn't be any different.

Give it 2 weeks. Things will cool down significantly.
That being said, I'm not sure there is much PvE to be had in Thera. Go looking for one of the other 100 new systems if you want PvE.

I actually went flying around there at ~0300 yesterday and found none of the stations bubbled. My entrance wormhole (from hisec no less) was empty, and I saw few ships and wrecks aside from a few bombers, cloakies (docking/undocking) and an abundance of rookie ships.
Mind you, certainly not a PvE mecca by any means, but not quite the nightmare you described. Maybe the initial rush had calmed down somewhat by then?

To be honest OP makes sense, why set up stations in the first place if they will be obvious camped death traps(at least in null there are less people and big chance to just slip by), where docking is equal to suicide? Kills Lore too, lots of pirates and low-lifes camp right outside sister's stations and they do nothing. They could at least put up a sentry or two to protect their critically important research and staging bases.

LOL.
CCP always like "we don't know what players will do with new content."
Then later:
"Here's new content. Hey you can have dictor bubbles in it and there will be 4 stations".
What did they think was going to happen?
So much for that idea. I won't be feeding anything expensive to these "death camps". Maybe clone upgrade costs were removed just so bittervets would give it a second thought.

With the new clone cost (0) it's up to you. But it makes Eve a "no risk" to "some risk" MMO. I wouldn't either. Perhaps it will find a following that enjoy the mechanics.
If it gets a good market, you might use it as an arena for your hard earned ISK.

Everyone will forget about Thera in a week. It's an inconvenient lowsec system, basically. It requires probing, risk, and there's nothing there. It needs to be CONCORD policed to become any type of mos eisley of EVE (yes, highsec).
Thera is barren. Players just haven't figured it out yet.

The best way to make a it a mos eisley of eve is to have player security force and make it NRDS. Then you keep it open and can camp the wh's and deal with reds and mess around.

Long ago I fielded the idea that we should have "deep space" in every system with withering police depending on how far out you go. So in the first three to 1 to 3 AU you got space police, afterwards it takes longer to respond so at 5AU or more it can be up to a minute. Past 20 AU there is no protection and it's like nullsec.
It would have been good for Thera - some levels of protection at least to put a damper on the people with nothing to do but death camp everything all day, but in the same system allow for a free for all a usual.
I know I know.... "let the players do it". But this game suffers from YEARS of advertising the importance of ISK and attracting min-maxers to whom any and all activities that do not generate ISK are avoided like the plague. We'd need around 4 years of an ad campaign that attracts players who don't care about that sort of thing and then you'll have the idealists who see this situation as an opportunity for fun and not some incursion into their 50 gajillion ISK per day obsession.

I will disagree. There are plenty of wh corps and even some others that might enjoy thera as a free port. if you could have a semi chance at defense. but most people will go home like in all wormholes, plenty of space but not everyone wants to be there. *shrugs*

It's also connected to *everything*, meaning that you can base a 50 interceptor wolfpack there, find holes to renter space, and burn nullbears to the ground, only to jump back into Thera when defense fleets mobilize. Then you go to the other side of nullsec and do it again.

Having put further thought into this I'm pretty sure trolling.

Of course of course. Another avenue to point out that which was already obvious. Thank for dose of "nobody is special" agenda today. if you knew me personally you would know I'm the last person to tell that to.
Now, about that completely unusable spaceport where it won't matter if you have an ego or not....

Decided to take a peek in an Interceptor earlier today and the bloodbath didn't surprise me all that much. Once things cool down it could be an interesting place to live or visit whenever you get a connection. Though, I have to say, as long as interdiction spheres are allowed there I don't think it's ever going to be the 'Jita without CONCORD' CCP has envisioned. Because any trader with half a braincell is going to stay far far away from that place.

NRDS never crossed my mind on the subject of Thera. Thanks for bringing that up though. I cannot see where it could work for a large system with so many ways in and out. So we can discard that.
All that I have concentrated on is the mechanics. And that which can be locked down and death camped will be. You can't anchor bubbles, but dictor bubbles are possible. Even if we see it as some kind of PVP zone, it's going to be a crappy PVP zone when the stations are death camped.
So it's not PVe friendly. That's a given. Unless PVP is "get bubbled and die" it's not going to be PVP so much either. Meaning that, like the Nestor, it's more SoE content for which we have to find a use. And an SoE ship with me flying it is the last thing that system is ever going to see.

Another "agenda point" of yours.
Where did I make any assertions on the status of the players? First some presumption of NRDS, not the "hurf blurf you should not play alone" track.

I knew this was going to happen. CCP needs to put some insanely powerful SoE guns on those stations. If you can't undock there's no draw to Thera. "Stations" as a concept a reduced to being theoretical. Everything that would make me want to live there is negated by perma camps. They WILL be perma camps. It's just not a tenable lifestyle.
Sorry CCP. You f***ed up one little thing on this one.

You would think RP wise the owners of the station would destroy it so their ships can get in and out. So for explorers and PVE players stay away from Thera is just another pvp area!

1: Some morons will go there to grief. 2: Some morons will go there because it's new. 3: Hopefully Goons will permacamp it.
Either way that's a lot of morons migrating to one system and out of the general populace.

I didn't think about it until now, that it would be the cause of attrition, but it looks like it will cut the inexperienced from the herd of EVE like a roach motel (they check in, but don't check out).
Thera needs default warpable holes -or- concord police so players can take their time navigating and probing. As a C4 with a station, players will only be disappointed for going there thinking it's one thing, then discovering it's something else.
Thera is technically a C12 but that's just a quaint label.

Lucky he can't lose skillpoints anymore. the problem is the probing barrier. there will be players without friends who fall through the cracks. Thera will become a subscription killer just for being Thera. I didn't think about it until now, that it would be the cause of attrition, but it looks like it will cut the inexperienced from the herd of EVE like a roach motel (they check in, but don't check out). Thera needs default warpable holes -or- concord police so players can take their time navigating and probing. As a C4 with a station, players will only be disappointed for going there thinking it's one thing, then discovering it's something else. Thera is technically a C12 but that's just a quaint label. I'm partly lost on the point you are making.
I understand that getting out is an issue and I'd rather not see bubbles there, no matter the type ... but I believe or hope that players will take care of overall security eventually.
What I don't understand, is ... the rest regarding probing, Ctypes (never WH'd), and why anyone would expect something else than what it is. What would that be?
I'm missing something here, but can't figure it out. |

It sounds like a place worth being in. The probing barrier is the scanning requirement to find the doorways to the system... that character might be an example of a player who only has one character, and no ability to even find the holes to leave Thera. There's a chance he was trying to leave through the hole he came in from, but the location was old (and the exit had moved since he entered). He could have been trying to warp to a hole that wasn't there anymore.
leading players to believe it's anything besides a C4 wormhole (one that doesn't have capital ship-sized wormholes) is misleading on CCP's part.

the rookie ships from Pend in Thera need to come equipped with civilian probe launchers and probes that are capable of finding highsec exits. Astrometrics I is one of the skills you start EVE with.
If there wasn't a 1 year timer on remote med clones, that would be another way to avoid Thera being a clone trap.

You can always set your clone to the school your character came from. No timer on that... But its still a ****** crutch for a broken system.

Thera (like all of EVE) is 'pve friendly' if YOU put some thought into it. PVE in Thera will consist of organized groups that can both farm AND defend themselves.
Speaking for real PVE jocks in this game (who give no Fs about someone tryin to pvp us), please ignore the whiny "wahhh, people won't let me solo PVE in peace" loners who don't get what game they are playing. |

at rest, wormholes seclude themselves from the rest of EVE. If you wait just 1 day, your information is old and you have to build your bookmarks again. This alone precludes 90% of EVE (if not more) from making use of Thera.

Players make the argument that it's impractical to camp all the connections in Thera. While that's likely true for one group, the reality is you only need to camp the few that connect to the types of systems that will have traffic. Especially highsec.
Players aren't just *mostly* risk averse. There's also little to no reward in Thera. Aside from belts, but if a player puts any ISK into a Thera belt hoping to come out net positive, they're just as out of touch as CCP's player event creators.

Although I actully like the idea of Theran noobships coming with a probe launcher, I imagine that wouldn't be possible without changing whatever code currently gives us noobships (since we get the model relating to the player, not the station-type we are docked in).
Although I see your concern, I believe Thera walks a dangerous tightrope of almost immediately compromising the force-projection changes. Immediately once fatigue got dropped on us you saw groups looking to wormholes as the solution to get fleets cross-galaxy, and with Thera we now have a wormhole-hub (maybe we should have called it Atlanta), that courtesy of player-ingenuity already has player channels which report its connections. If you introduce rules to make Thera safer or its wormholes more stable or easy-to-find, you might be inviting jump fatigue getting dropped on wormholers too

There would need to be a strong incentive for a player to do so. Like, if a corp could own the station and profit off the broker fees than they would have a reason to make it a "safe" place to use as a market. |

Exactly. Why should I bother with clearing the station camps? Its a regular WH system with stations and few more statics. Nothing more.

I don't think its profitable enough. I mean, why would people go to Thera for their market instead of one of the high sec trade hubs? If they are using wormholes to travel already they can easily find a high sec static and go to one of the existing trade hubs much more safely.
And having players who try to guard the station is more likely to attract pirates than it is to scare them off. If pirates *know* they can go to system X and get fights they are going to constantly go to system X.
The system will be useful as a base for roaming PvP gangs, but it won't be Mos Eisley. Pirates are still better off having their alt shop in Jita for them(which is much closer to Mos Eisley, some protection, but people still get killed in Jita and its full of scammers and pirates). |

Not so much that. Bombable bubble camps are fun.
It's just that when I see bubbles stacked on bubbles I get the same feeling that I get when I go into a house of a hoarder or someone who has not taken out the trash in two years.

You would think RP wise the owners of the station would destroy it so their ships can get in and out. So for explorers and PVE players stay away from Thera is just another pvp area!

I find it amusing that the self-proclaimed hisec PvE queen is telling a person that has been using wormholes to operate in 0.0 for years that he knows nothing about operating in a PvP environment, arrogance and stupidity in one easy post. It set its clone there, big deal, I bet it doesn't kill anything?
Kaarous Aldurald, hmmm, so I looked at the KB of the self-proclaimed HTFU of the Eve forums, I do not see a kill by either him or his alliance in Thera of a HIC outside the station, until he does so he has no right to say that you are fail because you cannot kill one, from where I am sitting neither he or his alliance has done so, so much for his statement about having friends to do it.

I understand that there is no security there but being able to put a warp disruption field around a non-player station is kinda lame. You would think RP wise the owners of the station would destroy it so their ships can get in and out. So for explorers and PVE players stay away from Thera is just another pvp area!
Sounds like you don't have much experience outside of high-sec space. Flay an interceptor to mitigate the effectiveness of the bubbles or find a hole and set a safe spot in a location that you can warp in around the bubbles. Maybe fly a cov-ops ship to a location 100Km or 70Km away from the station and scout it before you attempt to dock.
You should probably also get into a null sec or WH corp that trains capsuleers to work in dangerous environments and learn some PvP skills while you are at it.
Maybe you are not made for PvP and should stick to high-sec space and continue your existence as a carebear. I am not a PvP expert by any means but I took the time to think things through. Now I regularly live in low/null or WH space and chill at safe spots with my d-scan up. All it takes is some thought and experience. To learn it you must do it and in the process you will lose some ships but in the end it is worth it.
Even if you don't like PvP you should get out of high sec, you can become an expert at hiding from the big bad gank man while doing missions or exploration. The pay off in ISK may be mitigated by the loss of ships at first but the real reward is the fun and excitement that you receive. The threat of a loss or the rush of a kill can make this game exciting beyond any other game I have played. The only other game that has provided me with an equivalent rush was Doom back in the day. When those demons jumped out I would get a huge adrenalin rush and almost **** myself! |

Why didn't you say so dude?! That totally justifies your failure to organize some unrealistic utopian space ship game commune that claimed to be all cooperative but that was in reality nothing more than a sad attempt at profiteering and using people for your own gain.

Well again your ignorance is splendid to behold, it was while NCDOT as a whole were stationed around Stain. And at least I tried to do something instead of act like you who runs around the forums telling everyone how wonderful you are.

I mean, are you even reading what you type before you hit send? I don't exactly need to have a interdictor killmail on my own personal board to be able to tell you that they are not, in fact, invincible. Or that bubbles are not anywhere near as scary as carebears think they are.
But Herzog keeps talking out of the sides of his mouth about Luke Skywalker or some other nonsense. And I'd like to know exactly what he means. Sarcasm is not wit, however much modern society may have muddled the two.
So quit jacking each other off about how delightfully non conformist you think you are and just say it, one of you two. What's wrong with Thera?

I feel like I'm totally out of the loop. I'm not even curious to see Thera, for some weird reason. I do wonder how it looks like a bit and I also wonder about how many people are there, but in the end the real question for me is ...

This is why you are a bit odd, you suggested to Herzog that as he was unable to kill the HIC's and that he did not have friends then he was fail at Eve, so I point out that neither you or your very good merc alliance have killed a HIC in Thera. So what is it?
As for Thera I will be heading there at some point, but I will wait for things to settle down, maybe I will see Jenn telling everybody in local that they should be doing level 4's in hisec, but what the hell

No, I'm just trying to figure out why you think the ability to bubble = death on contact for any and everyone who wants to go in there. Because it really doesn't. It does....but only for bad people who have difficulty with a video game  Thera is prime emergent gameplay territory, the players will decide what it is and isn't. This is why these 'thempark' types will hate it and vilify it as 'wahhhh it's a pvp place' (you know, like the rest of EVE lol). Me, i just set my clone there lol. Not so much that. Bombable bubble camps are fun. It's just that when I see bubbles stacked on bubbles I get the same feeling that I get when I go into a house of a hoarder or someone who has not taken out the trash in two years. I don't log in to feel that way. Though the thought of bombing them is hard to shake (the ones in game I mean). I giggle like Loreena Bobbit in a sausage factory and I take out my SB.

LOL don't give Kaarus ideas one goatse is enough in this world.
Yeah I just make the simple point about dictor bubbles and that which can be death camped will be and "the usual suspects" come in with the usual stuff. Though with Kaarus I suspect there is a religious motive involved, or a lack thereof leaving a void that needed to be filled by the Church of HTFU.
Remarkably we have something like Forum PVP by Proxy going on here. I have yet to actually go to Thera - heck I just updated the client this morning using "free" bandwidth I don't normally have and have not yet even played - and the people arguing with me are not having anything to do personally with the matter either. We might as well be arguing new Star Trek versus old.
PVP was getting too expensive for me as I didn't like having clones costing more than my ship. Now that CCP has tossed us bittervets a bone here, more players will be feeling the wrath of my Kestrel. That this change happens with the introduction of Thunderdome.... uh... Thera is probably not mere coincidence.
When I get around to it I'll see how Thera really is.

I don't see how a few dictor bubbles will stop... Oh, wait. You're looking at this from the assumption that people are solo, aren't you?
Seriously...
Thera looks damn good and I will be heading there when things calm down to have a look, I have an added challenge to kill a HIC bubbling one of the stations, but I will do that in my own good time.

Heck that was at least interesting. I still got an alt out there kicking it up and they who bested me have not logged in having "won" in a long time. They "won" the systems, I guess, but as they were merely there to make their game the prevention of others from playing it, even then I knew their days were numbered. You can only play the game of not playing the game and preventing others from playing it for so long until boredom does you in.

(this is more of a lore post, not gameplay one, i fully understand Thera is for pvp only and its ok game mechanic, plzdonteatme) My thoughts exactly. Of course, the regular rabble can't seem to comprehend the ridiculousness of it and somehow feels obligated to come in here and bash the OP out of their inability to understand good gameplay, as per usual.

Not sure what you would put in there if not a station. What would you allow POS to be put in there? Last I checked its sort of shattered. Make it so there was nothing in there but huge ass sites? You can trust those bubbles would still be there. The real issue is how easily they can be bubbled, which if CCP didn't allow to be done on purpose, is a greivous oversight of immense scale. Lets face it though, even without interdictor bubbles, alpha fleets would be there to **** everything up no matter what. |

I actually struggle to see what Thera is good for. - Obviously not PVE. - PVP looks pretty stupid there; seems like there are lot better places to PVP. - Some people said "base for a raiding fleet" but give how risky this is to use stations and that most WH exit are in high with only few in 0.0. It doesn't look so practical.
So my guess is that people are going because it's new (reason #2 above) but in the end, it will be a few people there staying for epeen (reason #1). Which is good because a few less epeen-minded people in the rest of EVE helps us all! |

Don't like how Thera currently works? Form a Thera Police corp, recruit in members, fly around and pop people camping stations.
Work out arrangements with freighter corps to provide escort for their goods for a nice fee. Ally with the larger WH corps that they'll provide backup as needed while in system but doing so provides them with a safe haven of trade and clones.
Watch it all blow up from time to time as no-fire agreements get broken or nullsec alliances swarm the place and lock it down for a time until they get bored and leave.

The forums are just a distraction to keep people from pushing items there.
In reality, the best idea would be to stockpile as much as you can there *now* ... ... before the major onslaught of people who want to cash in on this and prices tank.
The ones earning most are those providing the locals with ships and modules right now.
And the best part about the new industry ... ... is that everyone can build anywhere and a cost naturally balances local industry.

"Thera not pve friendly!"
WHAT THE HELL DID YOU EXPECT!?!?!?!?
As someone who can easily be classified as a carebear, I figured Thera would be a hot spot for "A shot Z because of 12" shenanigans. I know what i just said makes no sense... it doesn't have to. THIS IS EvE! You have how many tens of thousands of players on the same server at any given time from all over the world. Any one of them could on a whim, try something new, come across someone doing pve in Thera, and decide to start shooting, simply because they might never have shot at another player before and want to know what it's like. More than likely someone is coming out of this encounter minus their ship and fitting at MINIMUM. Welcome to the sandbox, where someone who never stomped down a sandcastle just stomped yours and decided they liked stomping sand castles. Do you cry and scream? Do you build a better sand castle? Or maybe you put on a disguise and ask them to teach you the art of "Castle Stomping"...

To date I've lost exactly 2 cheap PVE firgates in Thera, mean while i've made some nice pocket change using nothing but the aforementioned cheap frigs (this post brought to you by a sub paid for with a plex that itself was paid for using nothing but Thera generated income).
Just because you can't figure out how to pve in Thera doesn't make Thera 'unfriendly' to PVE. |

They expected people to figure it out (and some of us already have).
There are these new inventions called "nullified ships" that ignore bubbles making getting in to Thera easy as pie. once in you can set a clone their and the market is sufficient to supply you with cheap pve ships. You can check any public killboard for my own Thera ships.

let me advise you sonny after playing for over 10 years, ccp certainly don't play the game for me. The problem with these things is that quite simply you have a few factions that bubble the hell out of the place and just camp the station and that to me as a pvper is boring and lame, plus it spoils everything its about. its just like the poco change in highsec, but guess what people like goons and rvb pretty much took every single one. So how does that help the masses? it doesn't... same here.

Content is driven by player action.
Thus sitting around a bubble farm killing everything that moves for no particular reason is pointless. The content becomes pointless.
Some people's game is wrecking the game. This is why I always like Herr Wilkus (who brought ganking to a science) - he was dead honest about his intentions but everybody he targeted had a chance to adapt and not quit.
Since there is no reason to bubble Thera up and kill everything, there is no reason to be there either.
So the end result, as I don my Captain Obvious rank insignia here, is that it's pointless.
The moment I read that dictor bubbles would be allowed I predicted this. The "kill everything for no reason" class of player is often the most overlooked (and they complain about it loudly) but the players who simply shrug and move on have perfectly adapted to that play style.

If bubbles were left out, then I think Thera might have been more interesting, especially for new PVPers. Imagine, a swarm of newbies, dunking each other. Suddenly, a wild Vet appears anticipating easy prey, ONLY TO GET SWARMED BY THE NEWBIES. WATCH AS THE COLONY OVERWHELMS ITS PREY TO FEAST ON ITS LOOT. THE WILD VET IS HELPLESS TO GET AWAY AS THE 2BIL ISK GANK LOKI IS QUICKLY OVERCOME, AND DESTROYED.

Imo it's never a good idea to have to make so many special rules to get people to do something. Interdiction bubbles are a part of null/WH life. They are easy to avoid and even help an attacker (you know that hic is going no where when his bubble is up, so bring friends and you got a guaranteed kill.
The solution to bubble camps is "kill the bubblers", not "ccp please don't let them bubble me". It took me 2 tries to get into Thera but I made it, and already Thera-Centric groups are forming. Just last night I joined a pick up anomaly farming group, i flew a Drake and though we got blobbed i made it out alive and with some loot.

I, too, always fly fit to kill a kitey bubbler and his friends. And I, too, bring the perfect fleet to counter what may be on the other side of a gate and/or hole in every situation. Quote:Thera is just like EVE in that it is (and only is) what you make of it. Oi vey.
What your doing here is makign up reasons not to like something. It's fine that you don't like Thera, but I think it's fine, I'm kaing isk out of it and having fun while not dying too much (at least till my luck runs out).

How much did you make in how much time anyway? I haven't seen any calculated comparisons to other sources so I'm kinda curious. If it's just basic sleeper loot then it can't be that much right? Unless you found one of those Central Archiver Cerebrums. Then uh....welp.

That's so "think of the children".
I'm 'casual' in Thera and i survive just fine, unless 'casual' means 'I don't need to think'.

I had 100mil isk in this toons wallet when I went to Thera (start up money). I've lost to frigs, and in 2 days had enough plex this account. And I'm not even really trying just yet.
Again, if you have to dumb down Thera to make it more attractive when there are already people in Thera making it work, that's misguided. You don't need a bubble-less Thera, you need less risk averse players. |

OK 2 days is kinda vague. Gimme hours. Like if you made that much in like 2-3 hours, that is pretty baller.

Now now. Be nice.
There are a lot of players who, if they did not make downward assumptions of other players and their intentions, would have NOTHING to base their esteem on. So be nice and let them declare themselves better than everybody else over their own perceptions and play styles lest they log out and start keying new cars or calling the police on their neighbors for every little thing.
CCP means "Crowd Control Productions" after all.

I am a bit with Anslo on this one. I see wild claims from Jenn aSide about making a lot of PVE isk in Thera but not a shred of evidence supporting it. Understand that everyone has its own money making secret but it would be more convincing if at least we were told generally how so much ISK are made with a "cheap PVE frig"? Rating -> doubtful in cheap PVE frig and how doing is it in Thera different from any other WH? Exploring -> maybe but then same question than above. If it is just doing the same as normal WH then why do it in Thera with more hostiles around while there are tons of WH empty 90% of the time. Mining -> unlikely... |

Who is it a market for? Most of its statics are high sec statics and anyone in high sec is better off going to one of the real trade hubs.
Even if you did find a way into it in null or WH space, you can just take one of the high sec statics to get to a real trade hub. |

I said I lost 2 frigs, I didn't say I used those frigs (Probes) exclusivley to make isk, now did I? You can go to any public kill board and see my (now 3) deaths in Thera (2 probes, 1 Drake). Thera has class 3/4 level content, not too hard for an organized fleet to clear anomalies and fight off the unorganized nubs who try to kill you. It's all fun and games till freaking CFC shows up.
The whole point is to demonstrate that some of us (actually, many of us, most don't post on the forums) aren't crippled by fear and risk aversion in a video game where nothing real (except time) can be lost.
Have you even tried the plentiful anoms and sigs in Thera before you've come to the conclusions you have? Sure it's easier elsewhere, the point here is to show that it's possible even against opposition

Why do it in Thera? Because this is a video game and some of us aren't scared to damn death of a challenge (or imaginary loss)? |

I have to agree with Jenn on this one, Thera this or Thera that.... It doesn't even matter..Thera isn't there for you to like it it's just there.
If you don't like it well then tough too bad go somewhere else in the game, CCP doesn't owe you anything in regards to this system, it's there and that's all there is to it. You make of it like the rest of the game allows you to do.
I've been there didn't think much of it and am now back to my usual stuff. I don't need CCP to spoon feed me stuff like in other games and tbh I get alarmed everytime the game gets altered just because it seems the vast majority of players either seem to lazy or stupid to figure stuff out.
Why on earth would you expcet to enter a wormhole system and be allowed to rat without any hassle from anyone else? You can't in any other wormhole system unless you are prepared. Personally as I've mentioned before I'm happy Thera is there because it attracts egits like a moth to a flame and thats egits I don't have to deal with so it's a thumbs up from me!

The problem is that so people are so self-centered that they think that CCP exists to please THEM (and them alone). So when CCP introduces something and they end up not liking it, instead of just going and playing somewhere they do like, they ***** about it and try to get CCP to modify it to fit them.
It happened with Incursions. I remember on dude on thos forum who damn near jumped through his screen because you can't solo incursion sites and that's wrong because why should he have to play with other people in an MMO lol. Some still do the same with null sec (I can't conquer a system solo or with my 10 man corp therefore null is broken).
Not saying that everyone who has an opinion about Thera is like that....but most are like that.

People expect to be left alone because that's what they want and somehow they live in a world where what they want actually matters lol. I'd like to visit that world someday, i just can't find it because I live in the real world lol.

So, I've been gone a while ... isn't "PvE content" just "Player vs. Everyone"?
Sounds like Thera's right on the mark then ...
