It was a good time.
The PvP room needs a re-imagining... The line for Valkyrie was always 2 hours or longer.... A ticket system would be nice. That would make it so you didn't miss half the content to see a ten minute demo.
The presentation on diplomacy given by scion from goonswarm was beyond great... Maybe one of the best public speakers I have seen...
Hopefully I'll be allowed to go next time.

For someone that claims to be intelligent he doesn't show much evidence of it  Yes Jonah - the fact that some interest pvp combat, with chances for both sides, can be beneficial for new player retention, must imply that marmite curbstomps are good for the game.  Honestly, I preferred you when you engaged in your little profanity laced tirade before going on hiatus....at least that Jonah had comedic value.
You are joking right? Johnas' posts are some of the most well written on these forums.
And yes, marmite gatrcampers are good for eve.
Allow me to explain before you dismiss this....
For me, there is no fun in the game unless there is risk. Undocking, shooting red crosses, and docking back up really isn't fun. Now, if I need to worry about being squashed by an oppressive, strong, well funded machine... Well it gives me the danger... It gives me the "oh ****" feeling that we all hate to love. It also teaches those that get caught and destroyed his to avoid it in the future... Some even end up joining the ranks....
Just my thoughts. I'm sure you won't agree.

Hah, I am not for sale, good sir. I just call it like I see it. You have a habit of using proper spelling, grammar, and punctuation. Merely one of those traits is troublesome enough for most to achieve.
Obsequiously,

Ya, asking for evidence that dying to a mamite gatecamp where you are hopelessly outnumbered, outgunned, and outskilled, and have no hope of hurting the other side, actually improves player retention (a direct response to OP), is a derail. Nice catch.
Um, I answered.

Not getting curbstompped by hopelessly better funded, equipped, skilled, and numbed marmite campers. this, in my experience, I travel eve not staying in 1 place for very long. I see week old players ganking (usually someones alt, but all it states is 15 days old, does that include alts or actual NEW players) and I see brand new guys trying to mine in ventures that get ganked or made fun of because they mined in empire. And yet, messing with (real) new players in the 1.sec systems is (yet another) bannable offense. Your anecdotes are either not true or... anecdotes. Edit: tell you what, prove me with 3 Zkillboard links of what you see so frequently it's scaring you. D.  How about marmite deccing my 1 man corp? Result: drop corp, rinse and repeat. Outcome: Not worth it to be in multiplayer corps and alliances, because you will get wardecced and either disband or get slaughtered. Result: Play solo. Good for the game? Nope.
Mouthy and belligerent clowns usually DO receive extra attention from wardec corps. No surprise to anyone who reads your innane ravings.
Anyhow, you never answered MY post as to how marmites camping gates is good for EVE... I'd like to see the response.

That you don't find PvE fun is certainly your prerogative. And certainly you can get your thrill about being prey to a predator by going to low/null. There are many, like me, who don't play Eve to be prey. I'm not interested in facing danger from repeat criminals. That's why we stick to highsec, for low risk wealth accumulation. There should certainly be areas for both playstyles, low/null/wh for those who want to face the danger of constant death, and high for those who want a much more orderly, laid back, lawful, and safe experience.
Nobody is limiting play styles. The only one trying to do that is you, and the other bears trying to kill this game. It has been 10 years, and in that ten years every single player has started at a highsec station. Each of them went through the learning curve, understanding what actions end up in getting them blown up. High sec, as you have correctly stated, is more orderly. However, it is not safe, and by the exact wording of CCP, is not intended to be.
Yeah, you can duck wardecs, you can do your best to avoid conflict, and you can fill the forums with your poison. If you are just a troll, its masterful. If you actually think the crap you write is true, you are helping to drive the nails into EVE's coffin.

Wait until a gang of 20 battle ventures from General Tso's alliance wipes you off the field...
God that was humiliating.

Show us on the strawman where the 1% touched you.

Show us on the strawman where the 1% touched you. Nevermind. We know. Another typical contribution to the high level of discourse on the eve forums - keep up the good work.
I try, but it grows increasingly difficult to keep up with the horrid mess that spews forth from your keyboard. I can only do so much to keep up.
Stop trying to kill my game.

No one is killing your game. Stop with the hysterical reactions...even if somehow all nonconsensual PvP was removed from highsec (which no one is contemplating) you would still be more than welcome to go shoot people in nullsec.
What about lowsec and jspace? Can I shoot them there too, or is PvP just allowed in nullsec?

The impact of wardecs on social interaction in highsec has nothing to do with morality - it has to do with improving the gameplay experience for everyone. Thankfully CCP is constantly improving the game, with awoxxing recently discarded, and failed highsec wardeccs hopefully soon to follow.
Wrong.
Wardecs have a giant impact on social interaction in highsec. I know this because being wardecced by a ****-hot merc corp forced my carebear alliance to disband, and sent me packing for lowsec, where I learned how to EvE.
So, when you say "improve the experience for everyone", are you hopeful that wardecs are gone completely, and that highsec should be a safe zone where no consequences apply? Honestly, from reading your posts, it gives the impression that you think highsec ISK farming should be risk-free.
Risk free and EvE are mutually exclusive terms. ( That means they cant exist in the same place at the same time, in case you needed a hand with that.)
