Goons want good PR? Why wasn't I notified?
Truth.
Goon. Swarm. They are the Goblin Hordes of EVE; they play antogists, lots of em. There is a reason every other game throws them in as NPCs. EVE gives us ones with actual human intelligence, however high or low you think it is. They love doin it, I love em for it and I'm sure I'm not alone here

Originally by: cal nereus Exhumer pilots... there's a very good reason why only a small minority of you are getting attacked by Goons. The majority of Exhumer pilots have avoided hot-spots and populated areas.
I have learned a very important lesson from MMOs:
Sheep will be sheep even if they are fish in a barrel.

And TBH the next idiot who says that CCP has no interest in a non-PvP game try and tell me why so many aspects of EvE have nothing to do with PvP? Counter Strike is PvP, EvE isn't 100% PvP...
((Missions, Market, Trading, etc))
Trading and Market are not PvE, they are "nonviolent" PvP. Who do you think you're undercutting?

If high sec was supposed to represent consensual PvP, then they would have done something stupid like disabled your attack buttons, or the "suppression gas" excuse of Anarchy Online.

Originally by: cal nereus Could be that the insurance companies are subsidized a fixed amount per contract, so they have an incentive to make as many contracts as possible.
The ones doing the subsidizing are the same people in government who are trying to get people to leave the planets and join the pod-pilot culture in outer space, even if it yields a net financial loss.
It could all be part of a long-term plan to get people into space (literally, that's what CCP wants).
This.
That's the problem with trying to draw RL parallels; there is always a way to reason around it. The insurance system is fine because people are afraid enough of losing their ships. Goons are an exception to the that.

One of this biggest reasons CCP supports suicide ganking in high-sec as I see it is because kill contracts would completely useless if people could just hide in high-sec. In that vein, someone in GS put a kill contract of sorts on all exhumers. Hilarity ensues.

The real crime against humanity here is 40 pages of circular bickering. I think everyone has made their point.

Eve has proven over and over, that for every one of you that quits from grief, three badass griefers join up because they read about how hard you got sacked.
This. Guilty as charged (I'm new).

Bleating carebears... And here, kids and adults, is yet another textbook example of some "pirates" at Eve being nothing more than people who have hard time in RL and who have to compensate for that by having power trips at online games (and without a pair to admit that they are having such power trips).
Especially considering the fact that anyone with more than one brain cell realizes that Goons themselves are just as much carebears in this issue as their victims (ISK loss is minimal and sec status can be got back in few hours), just that admitting *that* would ruin all those beautiful "me big bad, that means me > all the f00king n00b carebears"- fantasies.
Sad, yet also funny.
Wrong. Some people just see the absurdity in applying humanitarian ethics to virtual property. Its called the thrill of the hunt.

Not the carebear. The carebear will scream, hiss, spit, threaten your life, petition you, fill evemails and forum posts with such wonderful vitriol and hatred... mmm. I relish it, like a delectable wine. I draw succour from your misery. After all, why hurt it if it won't scream?
