No we hope all our readers will be able to understand it the first time around.

Originally by: Patch86 PvP is consensual in EVE in the same way that it's consensual in Counter Strike. That is, no-one forces you to turn on your computer and log in. But once you do that, you've consented..........

Why are you soooo afraid of carebear? I love the mining, trading, buy/sell, hauling, day trading, manufacturing and yes most of all I love to chat. Last time I check carebear community is pretty strong. Trust me on this, it is not fun watching some troll humpin your avatar's legs in WoW. Did you see the female Ranger's dance in Guild Wars?--oh too bad.. Give us freedom in high sec, I guranteed you will have a robust community. Oh by the way Benji, if we meet again try not stare at me.. making comments like, "wow, you a real girl" doesn't get you any point.. mister IQ man.

Whinny carebears need to go back to mining veld, and spend less time crying on the forums about being "forced" to pew pew.
I think my quote'eeeeeee is superior.

Sigh. I don't think anyone is "afraid" of carebears. I know the carebear community is strong, I actually follow that path myself. But I know that in this game, the path of the carebear is lined with pvpers waiting for an easy target. That is the real challenge.
Back in the day, I dodged m0o, I helped escort haulers through CA gatecamps (/me raises a toast to the memory of Shinra, cheers guys!), I sometimes hauled ammo on contract for 30+ jumps from Empire to deep 0.0 in the days before POS's. Sometimes I would jump into gatecamps just to sacrifice a very cheap clone while someone snuck a load of named goods to Empire.
I've ninja-mined lowsec space dodging Samirol (is he still around) and Ore Mongers, lost dozens of ships (at least) to protect miners, and in my long series of accounts I've probably mined in every npc sovereignty.
But in the end, when I run my own corp, I still pod every new player who joins, just so they experience it. (and yes I do warn them beforehand) Because in Eve, you can be a carebear, but risk aversion is not good in Eve particularly for carebears. When you accept that mantle, you accept the target that goes with it, and the knowledge that you will never be able to adequately defend yourself-- you need to rely on others, who in turn rely on your skills since they are off training that Large Energy Turret to 5 and figuring out how the latest patch affects balance in ship loadouts.
Believe me, sometimes being a dedicated carebear is something that should bring high respect because of the sacrifices it entails. But in Eve it also means that you make those sacrifices. I don't see people being afraid of carebears. We are seen as prey. What concerns people is a world full of nothing but prey, because then the predators become fat and lazy and there is nothing to separate the competent from the incompetent.

Insomnia?
A community undergoing constant transition and redefinition with continued growth?
Something in the water?
