Fun fact: We don't need you for the game to run smoothly. Most big alliances have their own industrial complex.
And yes, we can force you to pvp. You might not fight back, and that is your option.

Though I do frown on any corp pilot that will hide in station during a wardec and choose to not help their fellow corpmates. That makes you a selfish team mate in my eyes. With respect to running a hisec corp, I always say that the true character of a pilot comes out when a wardec occurs. Some will go off and selfishly do their own thing while others will proudly defend their home until the last Ibis goes down in a flame of glory. It's really not about helping corpmates. We cannot win a war with PvP combat, none in my alliance are trained or prepared to fight people who PvP on a daily basis. Instead, we win the war by wasting their time so much that they go away. As I mentioned in the OP, you cannot force someone into PvP.
Instead of commiserating, you should learn how to do it.
Everyone is a noob once in every area. You have to try to learn.
Explain to me why PVE people are so slow to uptake the fact that they can learn to pvp too?

Explain to me why PVE people are so slow to uptake the fact that they can learn to pvp too? For the exact same reason that PVP people are so slow to uptake the fact that some players DO NOT WANT TO PVP. I have over 70 million skillpoints, none of which are PvP related. Hell, I can't even fit a warp scrambler to my ship. My active avoidance of all things PvP is due to the fact that I do not enjoy it in the slightest. No, I don't have to try and learn PvP if I do not want to. I will continue to run missions and do other carebear activities for many more years, because I love this game.
I don't care if you want to PVP! This is EVE, and you signed up for a game which is one big giant open pvp arena.

I think you missed the point about him saying that he has no interest in it. The general question he's asking is "why does it bother the PVP players if someone doesn't want to PVP?"
To that question, it bothers me they want to change game mechanics to make themselves safer to avoid any unwanted pvp, thus ruining the game I love.

Because people like you cried on the forums back in 2003 enough to make CCP introduce concord. Besides, I can still gank you or get you to aggress me in lots of ways.

You still haven't answered my question. Why do you insist on PVPING people who aren't interested in, or cannot, fight back?
Because it's funny.

That's unfortunate. Honestly, your first answer was much better. "Changing game mechanics". This, "Because it's funny" is one of the worst reasons in any game whatsoever to take delight in ruining another person's game experience.
"For the thrill"
"For the kill mail"
"For the loot"
etc...
Those are good reasons.
Because you want to **** on someone isn't.
Those answers go together. It's funny because of how lolwutmad they get about losing anything, then they go cry to CCP to get it "fixed".

You still haven't answered my question. Why do you insist on PVPING people who aren't interested in, or cannot, fight back? You say you have no interest in pvp yet you admit you take part in the market. That is a form of pvp just not shooting ships or seeing they guy you are fighting . The only way to not pvp in this game is to run missions. If you do any thing else you are compeating with other players. What you mean to say is why to people indigo on pvp against you on there terms and not yours.
Look a wartarget o/
And yes, you can't do any true PVE in this game. You are always competing with someone.

The problem lies in those who cannot hold their own in PvP either through lack of skill training, or simply pilot skill. They cannot seek out a fight with someone who wishes to fight, so instead they come to force their will on the unwilling.
Those who say bear tears are the best tears are wrong. Pirate tears are far sweeter. Plus, you can find them in any thread about CCP changing highsec mechanics in favor of the PvE player! No pesky scanning or trickery required.
Yeah, my killboard says otherwise.
Did you know most of the kills since I resubbed are in lo sec?
Did you know I live in lo sec?
