To keep up with the changes in patches, I read the patch notes so that I can be sure and adjust my gaming accordingly. Well, I reviewed those notes, low and behold discussing nothing to do with the change of sentry gun range. This is absolutly crazy!!! Why would CCP ever make such a drastic change to the game without notification in these notes.
Case in point, I lost my apoc due to chasing a mining party into the station, I was 68k from those damn things, and checked it 3 times to make sure. Opened fire, and low an behold, all of them opened up on me (even those over 100km away). With this information placed in the patch notes, I would have known this was now a dangerous act and would not have done it.
I do not have a problem with the change, and actually think it makes more pirates move out to 0.0 where they belong (except for the whole harroule being part of empire, with sentries, even though it is 0.0 which means 0.0 SECURITY, dont get me started on that one).
I now have a petition in due to not being properly notified of this change of range, and if it is denied chances are I will probably toss in the towel.
This lack of information is absolutely ludicrous!

Jeeezez CCP what are u thinking of. Of course ppl will start the whining about this issue but the fact is that Im 10000% sure that u gonna start loosing players.
Every last move u have made has bin against the pirates and that makes me angry. Why is there a 0.1 system?? its the exactly same as the 0.4 system whats the diffrens. Throw in something quick in the game that gives pirates some advance.
Well the reaction is the following:
CCP dont want pirates in the game!
And dont start about ganking ppl at gates are not pirating thats b*******it. Being a pirate is being the scum of EVE but now we cant manage to be scum¦s anymore. This game is starting to get kind of ridicoulus.
We are paying for this game and I think u should listen to the pirates also. Common 150K from sentrys u gotta be kidding.
I think u need to comment this oficially so we all know WHY u did this change has their bin any problem about having guns at 60K ??
And for all of u that says we should hunt down miners instead....jeezez u got the log-of-warp-to-no-where-thing the sentrys-being-at-100000000K-range. This mean we cant kill ppl in 0.1-0.4 they are as safe areas as 0.5-1.0.

Of course CCP want pirates in the game!
But they DONT want everyone to be a pirate. Pirates should be a minority made up of skilled players.
Pirating should not be Joe N00b and Friends. Alas pirating have to be hard. I can liive with carebear miners, but i cant live with carebear pirates.

The changes now make it so that there will be miners and pirates that pick on miners, wow that is going to be so exciting.
What happens if all the miners go into empire space.
Even if there was an economy that made it worth being a trader they would be completely safe know, warp from gate to station. Can anyone say AFK.

May as well make all empire space 1.0 sec now since its almost there already.
And dont say there are npc becuase they are no threat to any player with even some experience.

Actually there is no indication that CCP have put any thought towards having player pirates in the game. Their previous lack of control to prevent pirating should not be taken as a tacit agreement that pirating is good and should be in the game. In the Q&A with LekJart conducted by myself and Sara he didn't even seem to care that much about the issue (or lack thereof) of players wanting to pirate. The attitude of the lead dev, and one would assume of the whole dev team as a result, is that players do what they want to do, end of story.
Remember, they are painting a picture here, creating art in a game. And you can spend your life tweaking such a masterpiece, much as Leonardo DaVinci did with the Mona Lisa. It's just a shame that boredom thresholds prevent the average human from spending a lifetime looking at one individual piece of art. When CCP realise this is a game and not a sculpture (or a game of "chess") then maybe such issues will be addressed in a sensible and timely manner.

Unwary.
Why f--cking bother.
This morning before i cleared off out, i and others were asked the question by a person carrying 250 harvester drones. It was a unwary wanting to confirm on a pick up, because they had to travel through a 0.4 system on the route.
Obviously they wern't aware of the sentry gun changes.
The situation now is bollox.
Iv'e never liked gate camping, iv'e been vocal about it in the past, but realy what now is the f--cking point, you can just afk those 250 drones back, or anything else for the matter.
It's a sh-t situation that come about because of ccp's failings in the past.
It's all about player numbers imo, just a shame the tossers running the game value that above the people that stuck with the game when it realy was going to sh-t, because of there lack of experience in the genre.

Tell u what CCP , just make all space 1.0... and while your at it... why not take guns and missiles out of the game too so we cant kill anything... what a f**king joke!!! if you want to make secure space more secure why not increase the range of the guns in 0.5 above?? stop punishing players for your inadequate programming in the Yulai incident.

So when are CCP going to let us fight back these ridiculous God like sentries??? if they are making them so hard in unsecure space why not give us 'unskilled' gate camping pilots the chance to disable them?

Sorry to burst ure bubble but there really isnt many players in 0.4 systems and when they see u they can just fly to a gate,station or a safe point.....even faster by loggin off and lettin the auto thing fly u to a safe spot.
And thats so diferent to what pirates do when faced with a fair fight.

Bruen, using Pirates and 'Fair fight' in the same sentence is an oxymoron.
