Ocean Ormand Bagel and Lox 54	Posted - 2017.02.14 19:44:16 - [121] - Quote Lord Frost wrote: 10 year player coming back to nothing but ganks and scrubs. I spent billions trying to set up a citadel. Long hours gathering and consolidating my assets only to have pieces of **** destroy all what you've worked for. I know the risk, but obviously when you can't even haul fuel without getting ganked... well I'm glad to quit once again. I'm sure I'll get backlash from you all, but this post isn't for you. It's for me and the hopes it reaches someone at CCP. Your game has gone to the wayside. I'm so glad I sold my old toon for $1000 on eBay. Well worth it. At least there are people vested enough in this game to pay that. Cheers all... and fly safe. How is this thread not locked yet? Anyways op just stop being bad. Its easy to set up citadels - in fact they are everywhere - a total cancer in eve. Final thought - why hasnt CCP done anything about the RMT done on ebay? Just have to notify ebay that it is violating the tos and they should be pulled - easy pease.
Expendable Unit Science and Trade Institute Caldari State 35	Posted - 2017.02.14 20:56:07 - [122] - Quote The issue with this game these days is that it became very simple to play, so even half-baked troglodytes can "play" it...I would not mind getting my crap blown up after spending a lot of time, but I want that occasional solo experience like back in the days where pirates hung around solo at gates with BCs and BBs... These days, some kiddie sees one of those and will have to call his corp, alliance etc to form a fleet rather than to take it out. The most amusing of all is that these kids think they are bad ass, and those laughable "kills" you see on the KBs of the "top killers' is actually looked upon with high admiration by today's player standards.
Mara Pahrdi The Order of Anoyia 1488	Posted - 2017.02.14 22:37:20 - [123] - Quote Eazeldown wrote: I think the OP is correct eve is not what it used to be . I mean there has always been scammers in eve but now there is so many in jita that you can't even always use the market there because of lag. And ccp seem to condone this as chat bots are banned and all these scammers are quite clearly using chatbots and ccp does f all. Last time I went to Jita I decided to try something and started to right click into local and just block whatever popped up there. After less than a minute and maybe a dozen successful blocks Jita local was suddenly very, very quiet. Most likely next time there will be other spammers available. But there numbers are way less than the scrolling of local does convey. So I decided that I'm going to do this again next time. There's no big effort required to take Jita local back. Remove standings and insurance.

OT: It's always funny when someone who's upset that people aren't playing by his made-up rules call others "scrubs". You are wrong. CCP kept making the game easier and easier and what happened at the end was a zerg fest. Again, if you love the simpleton approach, go ahead and make yourself feel right at home. Lowsec used to be dangerous because you never knew what could happen, and now, you always know what happens, where and at what time. Whole corps and alliances dedicate themselves for instance to sit on one gate. Great game eh? For the simpleton that sits on a gate all day long.
Jenn aSide Shinigami Miners Test Alliance Please Ignore 15162	Posted - 2017.02.15 18:28:48 - [130] - Quote An observation (in the form of a queation I guess). Notice how people who hate certain things so much tend to concntrate on the motivations of people doing things they don't like? I mean look at the people who are talking about gate camps. They seem way more bothered by the fact that someone is sitting in front of a computer playing a space video game and waiting for someone to jump through a gate so they can kill them. They deride it as 'lame' and 'not real pvp'. At the same time, those of us who don't have a problem with the activity (gate camping) but merely see it asyet another challenge to be defeated, also don't give a rats ass as to why someone is doing it... I don't care for gate camps, don't participate in gate camps, don't find them interesting, and i LOVE the feeling of exhilaration I get from MWD/Cloaking my ship safely past them. It never crosses my mind to think of WHY tjhey are doing it. Game says they can, so they can, that's ll I need to know. It works that way with everything not just gate camping. Ganking, bumping, some dude popping my cyno frig in low sec for no reason, hot dropping, cloaking camping , scamming, awoxxing etc. I don't care WHY some people enjoy those things, same way I know most people don't care about the fact that I gain this obscene amount of enjoyment out of killing the same rats in the same anomalies and complexes every night. And people who are succesful in avoiding people doing these things also tend to not care about why. TL;DR, stop worrying about why someone who isn't you enjoys things you don't. Learn how to deny them their enjoyment at your expence and move on.
Rysdan Caldari Provisions Caldari State 20	Posted - 2017.02.15 19:27:02 - [131] - Quote I see a few threads like this currently, and am a little confused. From my perspective, as someone who has been playing off and on for a few years...the strategy is pretty much the same. I spent the vast majority of my earlier career as a professional carebear. Yet I was taught from the beginning about gate camps, suicide ganking, can flippers, and the scammers in Jita. As I begin to explore WH's, LS and NS more and more these days, the strategy is still the same. I use the same methods I was taught years ago to keep my ship and clones alive. Does it always work? No. But for me, that's part of the thrill of EVE. But I use the overview, dscan, and local to try and determine the potential of camps and ganking, I check the map and/or Dotlan for stats on kills and traffic through systems. Too busy? Too many kills in the last hour or day? Find a different route. I vector in from different angles, I warp to safe spots if I think someone is trying to track me. Every time I undock, I presume I'm going to be attacked. I (usually) don't fly what I can't afford to lose, and I don't cry when I end up losing it. I certainly wouldn't set up shop in hostile systems without knowing the risk and being as prepared as I can be to defend or counter any attack. Do I get salty sometimes? Sure. But mostly at myself. For not seeing it coming. For not being more careful. For flying gank magnets. For being horrible at pvp. Again... all part of the thrill of a true Everyone vs Everyone sandbox. The only one of its kind. Am I missing something? In what way has the strategy to survive changed over the years? Oh, and I'm taking donations of ISK from all rage-quitters. :) Have a nice day and fly safe! o7

ISD Decoy ISD Community Communications Liaisons 1718	Posted - 2017.02.16 05:04:40 - [141] - Quote Quote: 33. "Quitting" posts are only permitted on the Out of Pod Experience channel. CCP recognize that during the course of gameplay a lot of friendships are made between players and that sometimes if a player is taking a break or departing from the EVE universe that they would like to say goodbye on the forums. Posts of this nature are only permitted on the Out of Pod Experience forum, and must be civil and well worded. However... Quote: 22. Posting regarding RMT (Real Money Trading) is prohibited. Posts discussing, linking to, or advertising RMT, including but not limited to the sale of in game items, assets, currency, characters or game accounts for real life money are strictly prohibited. Therefore I will lock this and apologize for not addressing this thread sooner. ISD Decoy Captain Community Communication Liaisons (CCLs) Interstellar Services Department
