Originally by: Spoon Thumb Quite frankly, there'd be a fraction of the current playerbase if you were told you could be blown up anywhere after a week of play and lose all your stuff for no real loss on the part of your attacker, and that if you petition it, you'll probably get denied a reimbursement after a two week wait for a response and lambasted on forums to boot.
Really? By that logic the servers would be barren, devoid of any and all players. Last time I looked EVE has a thriving, passionate community who enjoy this game both regardless of and because of what you mention.
You can argue the "as advertised" point all you like as you use an operating system which has no warnings that it's susceptible to viruses, snacking on potato chips which came in a bag that doesn't warn that it's bad to jam them into your eyeballs, and finishing it off with a nice cold beer which will shockingly lose its carbonation over time.

Which, by the way, is what happens. It's not called a "suicide" gank for nothing. :)

Originally by: Inconstant Moon Actually it is called that for nothing. Concord don't pod, there is no death, no loss of clone and implants, not much loss at all really.
Ship loss != 0.

Ship loss = covered by insurance = 0
Sorry, I must be missing something here.
Base insurance doesn't cover 100%, and even full insurance doesn't cover module loss properly.
Anyway, we can go back and forth like this, but you've basically just pointed out how the loss of the Hulk is mostly meaningless anyway thank to insurance.
