I'm a pirate, a pvper, and an all around asshat in game and have been since my third day in game, well over two years ago now.

What can I say about this post? Yes. Some of what you say is true... but its never that simple.

As is usually the case on these forums your anti-whine is actually a whine in disguise. Your evidence and your arguments are one-sided.

So suicide ganking is a little harder these days? So ****ing what? If we're honest with ourselves it had gotten out of hand. It was way to ****ing easy to do, with disposable alts and relatively little risk and cost for the ganker.

This mind you is the same thing most of us pirates complain about when it comes to carebears. "Risk versus reward! Rabel! Rabel rabel!"

That's all well and good until we actually have to make a sacrifice when it comes to pvp-"light" mode that is suicide ganking.

Then there is the whole lofty thing. Sorry, bud... the lofty scam always was dangerously close to an exploit, which in case you didn't know is where players use a game mechanic in a way that achieves an un-intended result. I doubt very much that CCPs intention for the wardec system was to make it possible for people to use fake war-decs from alt corps to kill unsuspecting players.

I'm sure you also probably **** and moan at the thought that nanos might get nerfed. As if this isn't a broken game mechanic. As a minmatar player who has been using nano'd ships for over a year to gank people I promise you... its broken.

Adapt or die my ass. Its always "you guys adapt or die, but don't ****ing touch whatever works in my favor!"

In the final analysis CCP is a video game company doing game balancing. That happens in MMOs. Balance issues are discovered in the course of a game and corrected. Every MMO on Earth is this way. Stop *****ing and moaning that CCP has the audacity to do what MMO companies do--balance their games.
