Edited by: Filthy Pierre on 08/01/2007 06:21:30 You know, I think I've just come up with the answer to it all -
Carebears hate being dragged into PvP situations.
Pirates love to drag Carebears into PvP whenever they can.
Howsabout we petition CCP for a mechanism whereby Carebears can drag Pirates into having to perform in a Carebear situation for 24 hours? That thought has a pleasing symmetry to it - after all, it'd only be fair trade, eh?
I think that something like catching a Pirate, forcibly implanting the Carebear chip and letting him loose, unable to PvP (because all his combat skills are nerfed for 24 hours and instead he gets a set of good miner skills - once the 24 hours are up it dissolves) would be funny as hell.
It'd give both sides a reason to chase around after each other *and* it'd good for morale.
I can just see Verone munching on that veldspar 'roid now...

My idea of carebearing when poor, is killing covetors in high sec -_-
It's so easy, not -terribly- profitable but tech II strips are nice, and the smack?
Now that's what I call carebearing. http://go-dl1.eve-files.com/media/0612/Forums_sig_for_kublai.jpg

Now, Kublai, you don't know me, why go insulting a complete stranger so offhandedly?
I said nothing bad about Pirates, I said nothing (good or bad) about Carebears either. I just made a suggestion, that was all.
BTW, there's a better killer drone setup than T2 HHs - but you have to have Drone Sharpshooting at V...cheaper too, I hate the price of T2 HHs.

Your post is stupid, so i'll assume you're another whiny carebear.

Signed,
Op's idea is retarded. And NO ONE can drag a carebear into PvP. They only get there through their own choice or stupidity.

Apparently none of you but the OP have any knowledge of "A Modest Proposal", the satire that was famous for it's extreme solution to an issue. Although I cannot judge the intent of Mr. Pierre in actuallity, I think it is reasonable to assume he isn't entirely serious.

I think the op has missed a vital piece of the puzzle. 'Pirates' ARE carebears already.
They don't do anything that has any appreciable risk, they attack with overwhelming odds, or in Win-Or-Run ships, or not at all.
It's called gankbearing, and they are as locked into a candy cane world as much as the veld and rat popping "carebears" they so claim to hate.
Personally, the hypocrisy I find hilarious. I also find the fact that they cannot see the hypocrisy themselves no matter how obvious it is, to be a bit like a low slot Tech2 "Irony" modifier. (50% bonus to Irony, -50% to respect, 0.1tf CPU fitting) |

Tell me is that an alt post module you're using? 50% bonus to irony (talking about respect), -50% to respect? Tech II maybe?

Disregarding other persons point to say something obvious and stupid. (It's all the rage on Eve forums)

Right, with the exception that it's more profitable to be a carebear... Oh, and it's easier to find targets... Oh, and those targets don't fight back with any skill or even randomness whatsoever... Oh, and you can fit exactly for what you're fighting since you know ahead of time what damage to tank and what damage to use...
I've been a carebear. I've been a pirate.
Being a pirate is a challenge, much more fun, and much less profitable than being a carebear.

Before T2 CargoExpanders, that so wasn't true. Ganking high sec haulers was my steady isk income
Originally by: Shandling

It takes me seconds to find PvP action in low sec. oh hang on, you mean "easy pickings", yes, that might take a few minutes to visit each low sec ice belt in your region
Originally by: Shandling

And neither do the targets that gankbears prefer.

No, but that's why you travel in 3 man gank squads.

Sounds like you still are.

"pwning" Osprey verus "pwning" Serpentis Agent. Challenge? erm, no. fun? If yes, why? Less Profit? Probably, but you won't be making a loss on the deal. being a carebear? Gankbears ARE carebears.
You're all the same, get over it.
Yes you... carebear... you, I mean you... you're the same as a gankbear. What did that veld ever do to you? Nothing, that's what. And you... gankbear... why pop an Osprey that provides zero fun, zero challenge, and zero profit? no reason too.
You are both as bad as each other.
Both as bad. What is wrong with you people? Why can't you see what is obviously clear?
Alliance PvP. People who want to fight people Versus People who want to fight people. Now there's your challenge, there's where you throw off your care/gankbear coat. There is where you actually have to risk something to gain something.
Not gankbearing carebears.
You're as bad as each other. Is any of this getting through?
No, didn't think so.

Edited by: Destr0math on 08/01/2007 17:22:11 I've seen more suicidal things done in lowsec piracy than i would care to mention- jumping a smartbomb BS onto a mining op protected moros and nidhoggur,just to blow up a couple mining barges is just an example.
Fighting other pirate gangs happens all the time. Not sure where you have been, but probably 1/2 of all fights i have in lowsec are versus willing opponents with backup there or on the way. Perhaps this is simply because my region is mostly filled with pirates, but i've gotten many more kills on pirate cruisers than i have on mining barges.

Tiny Tove I have probably participated in more alliance PvP then you ever have.But I also have participated in quite a few pirating acts.Does this make me a so called "gankbear" because I kill miners, ratters and pirates in Low Sec or would I not be considered a "gankbear" because I have participated in quite a few alliance PvP ops?Please enlighten me. Yeah I am a pirate.What are you gonna do about it? |
