Dominious New Light Hydra Alliance	Posted - 2008.07.15 23:55:00 - [1] Tonight I was passing by through 0.0 on my Raven headed towards a Radar site I had just scanned down. Risky, I know. But hey, no guts no glory, right? :) Anyway, on the way I encounter Coracao Ardente (alliance Triumvirate). After evading them for a few seconds they catch up to me and pin me down. Ah well, "might as well go out on my terms" I think to myself and initiate self-destruct . BOOM! goes my ship, I warp my pod off. But then a pilot by the name of "iios" makes a comment on local: "***** cream". What gives? . They pinned me down. I lost my Raven to a couple of nanos fair and square. I didn't whine. Even thought it was a good fight. But because I self-destructed we resort to name-calling? I hear it all the time but just can't understand. They win but still resort to insults. Am I one of the few that finds this behavior a bit tasteless? The reason I ask this question is because it isn't the first time I'm insulted for not confronting a camp. And it isn't like I instigated or started it. Why the immature animosity?

I'm sure I have to be one of the biggest losers in Eve :P but I can't complain, as I also make decent isk scanning. My question isn't about the loss, but rather the uncalled smack and childish comments. Sometimes I feel like I'm playing with angry kids who need a hug from their parents or something :\.

If this is not your first time you were insulted for doing that crap, and then to follow up with a post here.......you are doing nothing but asking for it. If not creating the situations I think you might be instigating it.
Patri Andari Caldari	Posted - 2008.07.16 02:53:00 - [21] It has dawned on me that though this is a game, much of real life characteristics do come into play. Some people are miserable. They wallow in the grief and sorrow of those they overcome. Do not confuse this with childishness. It is, in fact, the nature of uncultivated man. You lost, but it was not the kind of loss that brought them joy. Move on and conquer your next goal. Complaining about their behavior might have the unintended result of giving them that joy they were refused. Patri A fool usually thinks he is a genius

"*** cream" what is this mystical word that can turn cream into a bad thing? also, you denied them their kill-mail so they got upset. a few words were exchanged in the heat of the moment. words that maybe they regret today. they may even feel worse about it than you. maybe you should head over there again and talk it through with them, let them know that even though your feelings were hurt, you¦re ready to forgive them. im sure they would welcome the oportunity to redeem themselfs in your eyes. and i think everyone will be a better person for it.

But I think the only 2 people that can come close to insulting my manhood in such a way is my wife and my father, of which none have yet :). It's more curiosity as to what would make supposed "grown men" behave like this, if indeed they are adults. And I'm also beginning to see this behavior become more characteristic of Eve.

soldieroffortune 258	Posted - 2008.07.16 14:44:00 - [40] OP not flaming you or anything \0/ but dont post things like "why is everyone so rude" or "this person scammed me" on C&P because the people here are going to just flame you some more (although they are right to flame some people in some cases, like "so and so flamed me for 20million isk" then ok, yeah they deserve it, lol) so if you post something like General Discussion, it might get a little better, but no gurantees but anyway, the reason you got insulted, was probably because the growing number of 14 year olds in this game, and mom and dad lending their spoiled little kids their credit cards, i have encountered my fair share of them in many places, the help channel, plenty of people on local, people on the militia channel, and one kid who just won't leave me alone, all he does is cuss, and cry when i kill him, as he is a chronic isk buyer, and thinks "i have battleship, i must be able to kill him" and cant even use torpedoes or cruise missiles, he shield tanks his typhoon, and instead of using cruise or torps, he uses heavy missiles and t1 medium ARTILLERY at close range, anyone w/ the mind of a 16 year old or higher would know how to read weapons statistics about weapons, so either he is 13-14 years old and stole mom and dad's credit card, or he is a spoiled 20 year old still living w/ mom and dad, anyway, whenever i encounter someone like that, i just add them to my block list, if someone starts throwing insults at you, block em, unfortunately you cant do that w/ forums, but thats the price you pay to have everyone be able to see what you want them to know

Incase Ofstuck	Posted - 2008.07.16 21:20:00 - [54] You, Sir Dominious, are my hero. Or one of them anyway. The fact that you self-destructed and avoided pod death in doing so (while also depriving your enemies of their kill and satisfaction) means you won the conflict (at least according to their reaction.) The fact that they feel it is their god-given right for their prey to simply sit there and do as they ask... just goes to show that they're not prepared for null-sec. People need to take their wins and losses casually in Eve.. It's just a game, and a game where anything goes at that. Talking smack to someone accomplishes nothing, and simply portrays the speaker in a negative light to all those who see it. There's no better way to let people know that you do not have the intelligence to say something original. Good luck in your future endeavors.

As a second note, most of the people speaking like so are probably unemployed. So I doubt they send their boss similar emails. It'd be more accurate to relate it to how they speak to their parents perhaps?

Krummi	Posted - 2008.07.18 10:10:00 - [65] I have been playing this game from the beginning and the maturity of the common player has fallen considerably over the years. One was able to do pvp and getting messages like "Good battle" or "Nicely done" afterwards even after losing. In the begining the average age for a EVE player was somewhere around 25-28 years but has obviously fallen to something like 20-21. And though people are 40 years old they can still act like 12 year olds. But I agree with many here that complaining about it in the forums does you no good and suiciding your ship to deny them a simple killmail, that obviously means the world to some people playing this game, and your loot, which you will lose anyway, is just not honorable. If you self destruct then you have no right in complaining about a few words. Just my opinion.

There are three lies in this quote. you opted to just roll over and die rather than fighting your way back to the gate or taking one of them down with you. this deserves hot flames, not respect. Kind sir, you can confirm with iiOs whether what I say is true or not. First of all, the fight was at a planet, not the gate. Second of all I launched drones and shot for as long as I could before I was eventually jammed. If your problem is with me self-destructing, I truly am sorry.

However, please refrain from calling it a fight then. After self destructing there remains no evidence of a fight like a shiny killboard entry. It's comparable to those corps who do not post the losses on their killboards to look better. I would not smack you in local, but don't expect me or anybody else to give a 'gf' back to you...

Why not just stick to it, get blown up and STFU..? I would not call it a fair fight by any means, and I would not expect the OP to give a 'gf' comment in local. But blowing your ship up yourself may lead to certain negative reactions. The kb entry would show that he got abused, but at least it would exist... That being said, I lost ships to blobs myself. But I never ever even considered self destructing. I even upload my losses personally to my kb before it gets updated automatically just to see how negative the impact was. My kill/loss ratio would be quite awesome if I decided to happily commit suicide in each confrontation just because I think that 'It's not fair!'. My point was just that it's useless to whine about smacktalk when you upset someone by taking away his kill. The same applies to victim's smacktalk after getting blobbed. Just swallow it and go on...
Istvaan Shogaatsu Caldari Guiding Hand Social Club	Posted - 2008.07.18 12:26:00 - [73] Why the insults? The best reason, as I learned from the esteemed Homo Erectus in early Eve beta, is thus: Every human being has a finite amount of mental resources to divide among a handful of tasks. These tasks can be things like fighting, defending themselves, escaping, whatever. Getting people to hate you also consumes those mental resources, and while someone is insulting me back, or getting angry, or writing a GM petition... they aren't fighting, or defending, or fleeing. Their focus is not where it needs to be. They can make mistakes.

But hey, no guts no glory, right? :) Anyway, on the way I encounter Coracao Ardente (alliance Triumvirate). After evading them for a few seconds they catch up to me and pin me down. Ah well, "might as well go out on my terms" I think to myself and initiate self-destruct . BOOM! goes my ship, I warp my pod off. But then a pilot by the name of "iios" makes a comment on local: "***** cream". What gives? . They pinned me down. I lost my Raven to a couple of nanos fair and square. I didn't whine. Even thought it was a good fight. But because I self-destructed we resort to name-calling? I hear it all the time but just can't understand. They win but still resort to insults. Am I one of the few that finds this behavior a bit tasteless? The reason I ask this question is because it isn't the first time I'm insulted for not confronting a camp. And it isn't like I instigated or started it. Why the immature animosity? As someone who lives in 0.0 and pvps a shit ton I always hate finding a nice juicey ratting raven and it self desturcts however I never blame anyone but my self... I just think next time I need to bring more DPS. They are upset cause you denied them a KB post.. thats it really sense any alliance worth a salt gives its loot to the alliance and its not really personally kept. So their KB is one raven short.. they should have brought some more DPS or overloaded their guns! Blah screw em! You got the last laugh.. and a lighter wallet so it all worked out rather well.

Denies them a killmail + loot. Pirating Code of Honour, article 4, paragraph 13, item 3: Thou shalt not return home bearing less than a handfull of carebear tears.

AnonyTerrorNinja Minmatar Buggers' Advanced Interstellar Transport	Posted - 2008.07.22 13:00:00 - [87] Originally by: Krummi I have been playing this game from the beginning and the maturity of the common player has fallen considerably over the years. One was able to do pvp and getting messages like "Good battle" or "Nicely done" afterwards even after losing. In the begining the average age for a EVE player was somewhere around 25-28 years but has obviously fallen to something like 20-21. And though people are 40 years old they can still act like 12 year olds. But I agree with many here that complaining about it in the forums does you no good and suiciding your ship to deny them a simple killmail, that obviously means the world to some people playing this game, and your loot, which you will lose anyway, is just not honorable. If you self destruct then you have no right in complaining about a few words. Just my opinion. This is the kind of mentality they are most comfortable with. Remember, you're on the internet. grin As for 'honourable', keep in mind, if they're going to take half a server cycle to kill him, he has every right to deny them their killmail and loot. What if they permajammed him? It's not exactly an honourable fight if you COMPLETELY deny him the ability to fight back (keep in mind not all ships have missile hardpoints to make use of something such as FOF missiles). If they want the killmail+loot that badly, they have two minutes to bring in the wtfbbqdpspwnmobile and shred him a new one before his self-destruct cycle completes. --- Incognito - Fierce - Deadly - IFD (Intergallactic Federation of Dummies) aka ATN Ikari Dimji > I mustn't run away...

That said, I like to goad people in local to try and get under their skin. If it works, they stand a chance to be less rational and make stupid mistakes. It's best to always assume someone is smacking to make you lose your cool, and not because they actually feel like you cheated them out of a kill.

QFT,the biggest Smacktard in Eve. I'm sure the character changed hands at some point... You'd be amazed how fast a cats lives run out when you have a hammer.

Blazing Fire Interstellar Operations Incorporated	Posted - 2008.07.24 08:06:00 - [115] I could support the self destruct if it does damage the ships around and used as a tactical move, but with the current mechanics it is just a bad taste. You were going to lose the ship anyway, why you deny the satisfaction to those who invest time and efforts to get you? I is the same like finding that exploration site, go for your pve ship and get back, just to find out that it has disappeared.

Gealbhan Caldari Infernal Syndicate	Posted - 2008.07.24 20:14:00 - [129] OP: You self destructed?? Wtf? Go down fighting for gods sake, maybe you could have taken one of them with you. Self Destructing you ship is an admission that you should quit eve.

Newsflash Gallente NorthUnited	Posted - 2008.07.25 01:22:00 - [132] Originally by: Major Stallion Originally by: Dominious Tonight I was passing by through 0.0 on my Raven headed towards a Radar site I had just scanned down. Risky, I know. But hey, no guts no glory, right? :) Anyway, on the way I encounter Coracao Ardente (alliance Triumvirate). After evading them for a few seconds they catch up to me and pin me down. Ah well, "might as well go out on my terms" I think to myself and initiate self-destruct . BOOM! goes my ship, I warp my pod off. But then a pilot by the name of "iios" makes a comment on local: "*** cream". What gives? . They pinned me down. I lost my Raven to a couple of nanos fair and square. I didn't whine. Even thought it was a good fight. But because I self-destructed we resort to name-calling? I hear it all the time but just can't understand. They win but still resort to insults. Am I one of the few that finds this behavior a bit tasteless? The reason I ask this question is because it isn't the first time I'm insulted for not confronting a camp. And it isn't like I instigated or started it. Why the immature animosity? with pilots like you flying around, im surprised you guys still hold space. But then again, if MM and Pure let you move out, their perennial meatshields are gone and you were man enough to ** up forum and vent which cost people some rl money to fix + ofc stealing all corp assets when you left your corp which was at the time in hydra. seems you have reopened it. i hope for the sake of your new corpies you dont screw them too in future..
Dewayne Hicks Alcohol Fueled Brutality	Posted - 2008.07.25 18:45:00 - [133] Let me make sure I understand this, a couple of guys in 0.0 attempt a gank on a perma-jammed, PVE-fitted Raven and can't kill it before the SD timer goes off and then start crying and whining about it? No offense to Inzi, but wtf are you doing bro, recruiting former Goon members now?
Tashajan	Posted - 2008.07.25 18:54:00 - [134] If you cant blow up at pve fitted raven before it SD's, then you really dont deserve the KM anyways..
