Ganking, war decs and generally non-consensual PVP have been part of this game since it started, for ten long years. Know what's happened throughout that time? Subscriptions have increased. So much for the utter bs about the horrors of pvp causing newbies to quit.<br /><br />Even if it was though - and it ISN'T, just to repeat that point - so what? Newbies join game, realise game isn't kind of game they want to play, newbies quit game. That's not a bad thing. That's just what happens. What IS a bad thing is fundamentally changing the game that people have payed for and played for years in order to keep players who never wanted this kind of game to begin with.<br /><br />Would you argue in favour of removing killing from TF2 because some newbies joined in order to collect hats, but the "PVP" is causing them to not play?<br /><br />Summary: jester is bad and should feel bad.

I really can understand James' position (though I do believe he has a tendency to evangelize, albeit in a convincing manner (like a good evangelist should)) and feel he may have a legitimate concern about the game we love/hate to play. I do not know if this is genuine, or of it's part of his NO schtick, but regardless it still makes me think. At the same time, Jester also brings up interesting and thoughtful points in his blog which create a good dichotomy when juxtaposed to the NO's (or James315's) arguments, beliefs and propaganda. <br /><br />You on the other hand, are a fucking blowhard.. The NO's position is, I think, HURT by the way you are derogatory towards others with personal insults that are irrelevant and degrade any points they make with shitty hyperbole; like calling their differing opinions "hilarious" (I'm sure you don't find things said by other well written posters, like hivemind or Gern above, actually funny. Like, I would bet you didn't actually laugh. Maybe you fumed. But no laughing). And sure some people deserve it, I guess, in Internet land because "they started it" or whatever. <br /><br />Yet everytime I read your replies to actual thoughtful DISAGREEMENT posts, to the NO- it's policies and it's savior, I just know that I could never support a candidate or a position with agents and acolytes such as yourself. This is my firs time posting on this blog, so consider me a lazy-eyed cow or whatever, but I believe you, and you personally, are actively driving away potential support and delivering more CSM votes to Jester.

On the subject of ganks: annoying and stupi...-cont<br /><br />On the subject of ganks: annoying and stupid but while i don't think they should be banned tbh I dont think it should be profitable (currently its profitable if executed on a wide scale, see Goon G. Ice interdiction 2.0 for exact number crunches on stuff like this). Yea I honestly dont have a problem with stuff like that 39 billion palidan going down (honestly that idiot was asking for it with an explosion hole that big in a ship that shiny) but ganking a ship that is by nature slow, bulky and hard to maneuver and calling that pvp is like saying a suicide bomber uses fair combat tactics. typically the attackers dont lose enough isk in comparison to the ships they are ganking. A 9 mil catalyst can sink a 32 mil retriever, 3 catalysts (or ~27 mil) can sink a tanked mackinaw (~200+ mil), the trend is more visible in that paladin gank which has 7 tornados and raven, being generous thats about a 1.5 bil cost to explode a 39 or w/e bil paladin but that KM and ship is a different monster (mainly because of the cost to stat ratio getting excruciatingly high when the stats plateau)<br />Fix wardec to where there is at least some compensation for nooby alliances/corps getting wardecced by a much larger and/or more skilled power. Having an algorithm based on SP to handle this, defenders can recruit allies that circumvent partially (or entirely this would require balancing) this so as they can use an escalated show of force but attackers can only receive allies that take due process (maybe at a decreased penalty of size/sp or something that increases for each ally that enters so that an attacker eventually can't afford to keep the war going). and/or give the defenders a way to fight back, which is a general and difficult to answer generalization. some people say "this isn't realistic" well neither is paying off a police officer to beat the shit out of somebody; it happens but it isn't a socially accepted norm.<br />TL;DR high sec wardeccers are from my experience generally wimps that cant hack it being pvp 100% of the time (RvB excluded this alliance is the essence of cool when it comes to organizing fleet battles and such for noobies to learn)<br /><br />Fix war decs<br /><br />Ganks should cost more for the ganker.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1359240470593955814.post-42292135084674937922013-01-29T20:59:05.391+00:002013-01-29T20:59:05.391+00:00your points are null there considering
a) they sc...your points are null there considering<br /><br />a) they scout you with a cloaky and a catalyst gank squad (1 for a retriever 3 for a mack 14 for a orca) warp to fleet member and pop you. the whole time you were watching.<br /><br />b) aligning is practically impossible for any long term mining ship because theres no fine control for speed (that im aware of atm). The way the server handles your ship, if you don't have velocity, you are an orb in space. So unless you have active speed, you have to take the entirety of the warp time. Also, have you tried mining with a retriever/mack for money? if you are able to sit there for 8 hours staring at lasers cutting up rocks and watching your overview without getting bored, you aren't human.<br /><br />On the other hand I've repeatedly ran into this problem of strong vs. weak. In some cases it is a learning experience. In others its an insurmountable obstacle.<br /><br />When i first started I entered a mining corp and we had a lot of fun together, mining, running missions, ect. Along comes this corp who wardecs our alliance (which had 4 corps including us, the other corps were corps consisting of 1 or 2 members each so our 44 man corp was the target). They each were 2 to 4 year vets flying t2 ships with ecm and logi back up that ran in fleets of 10 around our staging grounds in the aussie time, euro time and US time.I was 2 months old. Even if i read a BILLION words on how to survive, how am i to do anything but run (i couldnt even use a cloak yet)? I'm completely unable to fight back. The oldest member of our corp was a year an a half, most of that in the industrial. They used locator agents to find us, and ended up completely locked our gameplay out for two weeks. As they racked up kill mails on mining frigates, barges, and shit fit pve hulls that most of our little rookie selves could manage.<br /><br />Fast forward a couple months later. I made some friends, expanded my abilities, and joined a null sec corp. I now spend most of my time in null sec and make loads of money for it. I understand that neuts in system will to kill me if they get the chance. I understand that if/when i undock/leave pos that that ship is at immediate risk of being lost. This new alliance I joined had fairly well established members and some even had a high-sec pos for r&d. We got wardecced. The enemy alliance put our pos in reinforce, we knew what needed to happen. We needed to show up, and we did. But they brought a bigger force with logi, due to time zones/unavailability, we only brought about 7 to 9 people to their 10-14 (3 to 4 battleships with logi and battlecruiser support). Should we cry over that? I do for a specific reason, but no we did not field the force we should have and lost our assets for it. I understand that and am ok with that (btw on this outting i netted my first pvp kill so yea)<br /><br />The only difference between highsec/null is in null sec I can actively engage you and hunt you at my own discretion. These corps that live off of wardecs are pilots that cant hack it in null imho. There is a disproportionate amount of time that they spend being the hunter and not the prey. The reason that is so isnt solely because they are more powerful, it is because they can safely hide behind concord until they pick a victim. Then they can wail on that victim until he calls for help/meets a superior force (usually only works if the corp/alliance has contacts or lots of money to hire allies, but wardecs inherently make money dwindle) or the defender docks up and doesnt come out until the aggressor gets bored and goes to pick another victim because currently, theres no way for the defender to win; either the defender docks up and bores the attacker enough to let the wardec fall off or they spend money for allies and lose the resources anyway.<br /><br />in low and null, everyone is as much a victim as they are a predator. This is where pvp is pure. This is where I live, this is what I love.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1359240470593955814.post-24902521215483673192013-01-29T20:44:28.373+00:002013-01-29T20:44:28.373+00:00Yep, that's pretty much the exact response I p...Yep, that's pretty much the exact response I predicted above, right down to likening me to an AFK miner for disagreeing with you.
