It's a role-playing game and everyone has to play a role of his choosing.
It's the first thing people should understand.
And a great deal of people in this game don't understand that. That's why they whine.
Or do they? Perhaps this is their role in this game.
So I have a role too.
My character's name is Caroll Yanaki. I'm a hybrid. Engineer and Mission Runner. I run missions in Motsu. I don't have alts. I'm from Bulgaria.
My role is to play this game both for helping people and to earn faction standings which will make me popular across the empire I reside in and it will open every single agent as well.
I have been training skills for an year already just to be able to work with the most elite agents I can get. Because they give me most money and most Loyalty Points.
Half of my time I spend to contribute to my Corp and my mates with whatever I can.
Therefore I need all the salvage and all the asteroids out there which are available.
That's how I get my kick in this game. I like to make my mates feel good by helping them. And I know they will do the same for me. That's how I earn respect in this game.
I mind my own business. I respect other people's privacy, ownership and hard work.
I have never stolen anything from anybody. Both in RL and EVE.
I don't care what CCP says about the salvage materials. I need them all, because I both make ISK and help my Corpmates by building rigs.
Therefore I consider each and every ninja salvager a person who makes all my hard work and trained skills, as well as game time for which I pay with real money, a waste of time.
And since I don't get into other people's privacy, I demand to be treated from other people the same way.
I have been ninjaed, I have been even baited by a character, who blew my ship up.
Why did I get blown up? Because I shot the guy who was stealing my loot.
Why did I shoot him? Because I am a normal human being. And every normal human being should stand up and defend his property. Not run.
I never whine in local. I might challenge and joke you, but I will not whine. And I will not congratulate you as well. Because, again, I'm a normal human being.
And whenever I get the chance, I will stand and fight you. I will try to use all the resources available in this game to fight you. If I can't beat you, I will call for help. Because, again, I'm a normal human being. And normal human beings don't just stand there, doing nothing. At one point, they have enough and they have to draw the line.
Who are you to deny me the access to the most rewarding agents in the game?
Who are you to make me run to lesser agents just to be on the safe spot?
Who are you to tell me to swallow it and to accept the fact that everyone can scan me and try to steal from me?
Who are you to call me a carebear?
Do you know me?
What business do you have with me?
Did I make your life miserable? Do I tell you how to live your life and where to go in this universe?
If other people's misery in this game is the one thing that makes you happy, I really feel sorry for you. People will never love you. If they are weaker than you, they will fear you. And if they are stronger than you, they will ignore you, because you are a lesser man. And you will never earn a real respect. Never. I know you will laugh at me and you will tell me I'm talking nonsense, but deep down inside you know what I'm talking about. One day you will be alone.
And I will not run.
I will remain where I think I belong.
You all have your roles and your kicks.
This is my role and my kick.
