They are in their starter corp.
They talk to others about moving on.
Others tell them its not worth it. They say that once in a player corp, you are vulnerable to wars, or jerks in your new corp.
The new player stays in the NPC corp, socializing very little.
Eventually, they leave Eve.
They did not leave because of being griefed, they left because they did not want to be griefed.
That's extremely damning of the people currently in NPC corps, that they would rather wet blanket new players out of the game than actually let them play for themselves. That's just goddamned shameful, is what that is.
I'm pretty sure the player who chat in NPC corps just don't know any better than flat out try to ruin it for others. The result is the same but I think it's a stretch to assume they willingly do so. I don't really remember seeing any counter argument when question were asked in my npc corp chat beside the war are dangerous and gankers are terrible narrative.
The result is still the same tho, the wrong info is absorbed by the newbie and from there it's pretty bad... |

But that trophy has an 8th place marking. How can my kid live through the knowledge that he is not the winner? |

EVE is here so many years later because it is niche and not a WoW clone.
You do realise it was absolutely impossible for EVE to be a WoW clone right? |

That heinous **** you said earlier, about how you consider it fine to grief people out of the game by spewing lies and misconceptions about PvP at them the moment you encounter them. That's about the most toxic mentality I have ever heard of.
Spinning what he said is pretty toxic TBH.
He described a situation that probably happen in game, he didn't say he or anybody was good players for doing so especially if they know they are spreading false information. |

Why not simply asked newbies that are 15 day olds, "Why are you quitting?" He really is this ignorant, folks. What do you think the outgoing survey is for, may I ask? Just to ask them what kinds of Gummi Bears they enjoy?
The red ones are obviously better.
On a different note, what would possibly happen if someone made a ganking campaign just outside of newbie starter systems? |

I'm pretty sure nobody said getting ganked gave you a 100% retention rate but what I wonder is if the retention rate of the ganked being much higher than non ganked much higher (did they give actual number or a definition of much higher?) because the sample is ~800 ganked player. If players were to push that 1% to let's say 5%, what people think the results would be.
Can someone appeal a possible ban for "harassing newbies" with the "I was pushing your retention stats" argument while fowarding a pictures of the fanfest presentation? |

Which makes perfect sense to me, EVE only really gets real once you realize that you can lose. But doesn't Kirk teach us that the only way to beat the Kobayashi Maru is to cheat? True, but not all of us are Space Jesus. Or, if you're going to go Sisko on me, Black Space Jesus either.
James kinda pretend to be space Jesus...
