Since day 1 of the game they have allowed NPC pirates to roam freely across high security space, murdering innocent capsuleers at will.
When the Sanshas invaded, declaring war directly on CONCORD - did Concord mobilize their massive fleets (we've all seen them cluttering up random gates for no apparent reason - we *know* they have the ships)? NO THEY DID NOT. Instead they whined endlessly and sent hordes of capsuleers out to fight and die in their place.
They claim they "can't handle" these threats, so they need our "help" to protect high sec against these threats.... But we've all seen CONCORD in action. Their lowliest frigate is equipped with advanced equipment that makes it more than a match for even the largest incursion fleet ever fielded by capsuleers. And they have THOUSANDS of ships on standby at any given moment - with the ability to create more AT WILL whenever they need them.
Yet still, even when there is already a massive CONCORD fleet in an asteroid belt, they will just sit and watch "helplessly" as an innocent venture falls pray to a lone NPC pirate. Claiming that they "can't help" - even though all it would take is the press of a single button to do so.
The question, therefore, is not "When did CONCORD stop doing its job?"
The real question is: "Will CONCORD ever bother to *start* doing its job?" You just suggested we turn high sec into a state policed by an invincible, extremely powerful police force, with the ability to detect and immediately respond to any crime they deem bad. Their morals are supported by only a small minority of the community. And I thought the Stasi was bad... Actually I just pointed out that high sec *already is* policed by an invincible, extremely powerful police force, with the ability to detect and immediately respond to any crime they deem bad. They are just lazy and don't bother to do anything because despite their public claims of what they supposedly want...
Can we get a citation for these public claims?

So that's a "no" then? |

I can't find any statements by the CONCORD Assembly in those links you provided. |

What bold assertions are you talking about? All I did was ask for a source, which you clearly can't provide.
So CONCORD never made any public claims.
Glad we cleared that up. |

Can you seriously not remember what you said just one page earlier? |

CCP has made many claims about what CONCORD supposedly "does" throughout EVE lore - go look it up yourself. Or provide your own citation that indicates CONCORD's "job" is different from what I described. Oh you can't? Because I'm right? Well then.
Funny how twisted up into knots you get when someone just asks for a source.
I wasn't even saying you were wrong, I was just interested in reading these "public claims". I would have even accepted "Its from the chronicles" or "in one of Tony Gonzales' books" but no, instead you got super defensive and started trying to make this about me.
You still haven't cited a single source and so I guess I'll accept "go look it up yourself [somewhere in the volumes and volumes of EVE lore]" as an admission of defeat on your part. |
