Edited by: Zerena Draco on 26/03/2008 14:12:58 Edited by: Zerena Draco on 26/03/2008 14:11:25 This aint whining its just some thoughts that might get some people on this godforsaken forum to act different.
Its sad to say that while EVE is a damn good universe/community to be a part of, thats not the case with EVE forum 
All the constant whining, 10+ threads at least /day about same suicide gankings, nano issues, blob fights, etc...
Worst of all all these threads got at max two constructive post for every 20 posts that are made in these threads. Many of these threads would be alot more interesting to read through without all the trolling oneliners... (perhaps we would have fewer threads to when people start to answer opinions with constructive feedback)
And to all those talking about dark world its true but its still not a Anarchy online so dont condemn players for expressing their opinion by messing up their threads.
Next interesting discovery is that: Some veterans proudly smack into newbies that higher SP doesnt matter and that anyone with a rifter and a smart sense can start pvping in lowsec if they just learn the mechanics... "harr, harr"
"anyone even tried that recently I can say the newbie space is filled with old veterans tired of 0.0 space looking for some easy pew pew stealing newbies loot to get them to start a fight"
At the same time you can find these veterans defending every last SP to the death and you usually find them under topics as "remove Achura race" etc... "kinda strange isnt it"
To be blunt no one likes to be behind irl or ingame and while older player got a huge advantage with their SP yea its "huge!" even if it depends on area choosen "industrial, bussiness or warfare..." they still try to convince every new player that isnt the case. I dont condemn the SP advantage since its game mechanics I feel fit with EVE perspective but dont feed the community with lies.
Players focused on PvE or PvP both need to stop telling eachother how to play and instead help the CCP balancing the game so they can interact without ruining the fun for eachother. Note: this doesnt mean that I want highsec to be safe far from it !
There is imbalance in the game mechanics and most is around risk/reward issue.
To name a few of them:
* Lvl 4 missioning is just low risk with great rewards. = (inflation! 1bn isnt that much anymore) * Suicide ganking is low risk with usually great or sometime "extreme" rewards. (plus a helluva more fun than grinding missions) * Lowsec "highrisk even if it varies alot depending on area" vs quite low reward.
Crazy ideas to fix some of the issues...
* No rat bounty on missions but throw in a few rare faction spawns into missions. * Less asteroids belts in highsec let players explore with ship scanner or alike for highsec asteroid belts * Make concord tankable again but make their reaction time and amount of ships be decided from sec status of the villain * No insurance payout on ships when getting concorded.
Well a few points not gonna flame more over the forums since part like guides and information regarding the game you can find in massive amount...

The EVE forums, like any forum, represent some of the best and some of the worst of the EVE community. The key to surviving is patience and thick skin.
Mission Bounty Removal - It's been suggested before, I don't think that such a radical solution is required. Bounties need to be tuned down slightly but people need to be able to get faction goodies from powerful NPCs to even things out.
Suicide Ganking - If anything is done, the security hit should increase the more one suicide ganks, increasing the turnaround time to get one's sec status back up if you make a habit of carrying them out
Lowsec - That's a difficult problem to solve, but I've got some ideas and so does CCP ---------------- Tarminic - 34 Million SP in Forum Warfare Play EVE: Downtime Madness v0.79.3 (Updated 3/24) |

Sad thing is, people that like to flame and post idiotic crap instead of actually thinking and trying to make things better for everyone dont even read past the first sentence in most posts....I.E. "may I have your stuff', 'Your post is a fail'.
Although there are a few poeple on the forums that acutally have ideas, and want things to get better...for pirate, carebear, ind, manu, mission runner...etc. for the most part, and this is typical for any games forums, most people think that since they pay the 15 bucks a month to play, they have final say in things...point is, nobody pays my sub but me, dont tell me how to play.
Final word....have you noticed, that with a subscription lvl of 100k+, in Eve, that you always get the same 10 idiots posting flames.hmmmm

Edited by: Fink Angel on 26/03/2008 14:30:38 Luckily the forums are nothing like the game IMO. Don't know where most of you guys hang out in game, but luckily I must be about 60 jumps from any of you! 
Edit: Perhaps a limit on the number of threads anyone can start per month might make people think a bit more before they post. I dunno, but a handful of people seem to make most of the noise. Really, about 30 people make up 95% of posts.

The EVE forums are hardly the best, but hardly the worst either.
If you're really looking for the worst community out there, try the Fallout forums. Now that's a crowd that's never happy about anything ("So you created this absolutely free module/mod which I'm not forced to install or play in any way? You git, you ruined everything and I hate you forever and ever and thus I'm going to smack you for as long as I live" might be an exaggerated version of the typical Fallout forum reply, but it's not too far from the truth). ______________________________________________ -You can never earn my respect, only lose it.

I like this idea :) This way i can go to 0.0 and rat and make lots of ISKies till im 5.0 sec status. Then i can come to empire for a few weeks and gank haulers in smaller ships than before since my high sec status only calls in a concord frigate and thus make even more millions without losing my ganking ship alltogether :) -------------- I R Not Completely Amazing, But I R Mostly Amazing |

Skipped the whine part, luckily you my friend are a tech 2 whiner and have a summary. Thanks a lot.
//Summary
* Stop telling other players how to play the game
You just did that you hypocrit.
Originally by: Zerena Draco
* Skip oneliners and give constructive feedback in "whining" threads
Constructive feedback to a whine? As if the whiner cares for anything others have to say unless it is another whine that supports their own. You high?
The only constructive thing in a whine thread is to write the mods to close it down.
Originally by: Zerena Draco
* Dont tell bullxhit like SP doesnt matter it does alot *period*
Fact: 2 noobs in two cruisers worth 20 mil ISK can own your ass if they have some affinity to PVP even if their total skill points is less than half yours and their gear is less than 10 percent in value compared to yours. Now it might sound like bullxhit to you, but it actually is a fact. EVE is not the game where being lvl60 makes you immune to anyone more than 5 levels below you. If it would be, goons would not stand a chance.
Originally by: Zerena Draco
* Help CCP balance risk vs reward since the masses always going for the easy way out to earn ISK...
Masses always want reward with no risk. Help balance CCP? Like if the masses care. Do you think the game is unbalanced? Well as a matter of fact it is, but not where YOU think it is. People whine because they do not get their daily dosage for free. People whine because a bigger kid takes their candy. People whine because noone steps into their mouth for doing it repedeately.
You want to help CCP balance? Go and join the CSM. Be prepared tho. Balancing does not equal taking what you do not like and adding what you do. Balancing requires you to step back and look at things from an outside perspective. The fact that you complain about people complaining about whining shows that you are either incapable of doing that or you just are a lousy hypocrit (yea, its a new word i learned and i love the cling of it).

don't complain about all the whines and trolls and stupid posts on the EVE forums until you read the WoW forums...
~~~~ ~~~~ ~~~~ Take away the risk and it would make flying around in space utterly pointless.
Take away the flying around part and you make EVE into a space themed spreadsheet application. |

The General Discussion forum of every game that I've played has been filled with trolls. Eve is no exception. There's just something about a general forum that brings out the bottom feeders in every game.
Even for a game like WoW, which has one of the worst General forums, once you leave it and go to other subforums, the quality of the posts shoots up.

How ironic that this should be answered mostly by trolling oneliners.
Of course the general discussion forum of every game is usually dire, but this forum is publicly viewable and if a prospective player were to browse by, I'm sure they won't be encouraged to play with the ways things are now. I can't expect the trolls to either mature or go away, but perhaps we could do with some better moderation.

There is no inflation. Read the dev blogs from our resident economist. What you have described above is just increased disposable income. That's a very different thing and although it can lead to inflation (which is bad) high DI on it's own is very, very good.
Quote: Crazy ideas to fix some of the issues...
* No rat bounty on missions but throw in a few "very rare" random faction spawns into missions.
In other words nerf the mission runners. Cheers. You obviously don't run them at the moment. L4 averages around 15 to 20 mil an hour and most of that is the bounties.
Quote:
* Less asteroids belts in highsec let players explore with ship scanner or alike for highsec asteroid belts
A good idea and one that CCP are apparently working on.
Quote: * No insurance payout on ships when getting concorded.
Maybe.
Quote: * Stop telling other players how to play the game
Yeah, just make the changes and to hell with everyone else - that's your style.
Quote: Help CCP balance risk vs reward since the masses always going for the easy way out to earn ISK...
What the masses will go for is fun. This is supposed to be a game not a second job. More disposable income means fewer concerns about losses and more fun. -- (Sarcastic mission running veteran)
