Sure it's a sandbox. But when you have certain kiddies thinking that you can pee and excement in the sandbox because it's a sandbox then we start having a problem.
CCP is trying to run a business. These kiddies think that because they pay $15 per month they're entitled to grief other players and thus other monthy subscriptions out of the game because it's a 'sandbox'. So, without understanding even what a sandbox means they start parroting the word around as an excuse to grief and generate what they call "tears", or ruining other players' game experience.

When CCP comes in and plugs exploits, bugs, and loopholes that slowly drive their business to the ground...... want to continue crapping and peeing in the sandbox because to them, that is what a sandbox is. It isn't a playground for players to have fun, but rather a tool for them to have fun at the expense of others. Learn what a sandbox is and you'll soon realize that crying whenever CCP plugs your griefing mechanisms won't help you much.

...you do realize that the ones whining here are the OP, you, and the others crying about the changes to come, don't you? I suggest you take your own advice, grow up and accept the consequences and risk for your actions, you self-entitled whiner. Or find another venue to relieve your frustrations and inadequacies of grief. Or get professional help. Whatever.

CCP on numerous occasions has admitted that hi sec war decs and other PVP mechanics in hi sec are used primarily as grief tools. And they've also stated they are not satisfied with these mechanics. And precisely because of this it makes perfect sense they are changing things around. I don't expect those using these mechanics to be happy once they're plugged. Make no mistake, grief players will need to be making some changes to their style if they wish to continue peeing in the pool. And to be honest, I expect them to come up with ways to continue and try making others' playing experience miserable for their own amusement. And I expect CCP to continue balancing the mechanics. And I also expect hi sec grief players to continue to whine.

And what about those corps'es / alliances who doesn't war dec tings in empire for doing griefing?

There are many things I'd like to see fixed in eve.

You high-sec gankers pulling t3 bc's out of orca's and killing some noob in his itty 4 are one of them.

You make me sick, you can't PVP obviously or you would be. You don't belong in this forum or any of the others. You're about a half step up from botters.

Really glad they are getting rid of can flippers too - can't even imagine how many noobs this has put off the game over the years.

If you want to PVP there are plenty of places to do it without harassing people who don't care for it.

The fact there are people who want to PVP and people who don't want to PVP and the game caters for both is what makes it a sandbox, not you getting to do whatever you want to do at others expense.

PVP games need PVPers, not griefers.

Confirming everyone in null 'blobs the sh*t', literallly 100%. Also there are gatecamps everywhere and leaving high-sec results in dying horribly as soon as you decloak.

Tell the gatecamp story to our Titan pilot who got his titan shoved into his brown eye by faction war duders. I know that your post was sarcastic but many people might take it seriously. Bunch of small and large corps are living in losec and doing just fine.

Seriously, your alliance should consider changing its name to Self Tear Extraction and Reclamation Services.

Why is it that high sec grief players, gankers (preying on the weak) are so afraid of consequences to their actions?

You spout all types of rhetoric (risk, u not safe!, GBWOW), but as soon as some risk to your riskless profession is talked about you flood the forums with tears.

What are you on about, fool?

Gankers are completely safe surrounded by CONCORD? Are you on drugs? Or just kind of like the wacky uncle in the attic?

Concord is vaporizing my ships when GCC'd, and if its not Concord its endless waves of Faction Navy.

Suicide gankers take a risk with every single attack. A calculated risk, but a risk, nonetheless.

Still don't like the idea of getting a sec hit for killing somebody that is shooting at me.

The moment that happens, I'm out of the game. They've nearly lost me over the wardec exploit stupidity.

Insert 3-4 paragraph long bitchpost about how you don't want to deal with the consequences of your actions and need to go to nullsec and learn to do "real pvp" here.

Rebuttal pointing out that losing sec status when the other party consents to PVP is absurd.

Retardedly long post vaugely mentioning something about "higsec pvp cearebears" but failing to address any actual issues or even make sense.

I'd love to see what you guys are talking about, but I can't look far enough back in the announcements to see it... CCP 2 gud.

However, I think getting global aggression for things to used to give corp or individual aggression is a VERY bad move. Basically, I can't do anything in highsec now without being blown up. Because you can pretty much guarantee anybody who goes flashy red is gonna die unless the system is pretty much empty. I've been a member of enough frig roams where an unfortunate -10 landed on us to know that flashy reds in highsec get blown up. And not only that, but you can't even defend yourself without losing sec status, forcing people who still want to pvp in highsec to become missionbears in their spare time just to keep their sec up.
