That was the problem. They had plenty of slack.

Art3mis (or Artemis)

Maybe. The way I see it, the advent of the NK brought the winter.

This goes some way to confirming my feeling about S7. Whereas every other series appears to have been based on books, with connective tissue that makes sense of the big scenes, this last batch of episodes felt more like it was based on notes.

You can sit there and say it’s not ganking all day and night, but come on you’re not fooling me or anyone, only yourself. All those newbies that were so ‘stupid’ as to fly through that gate into a bubble without scouting it. Well of course it’s their fault. Don’t they know that’s your system? They don’t deserve any…

It makes burning down the world more enjoyable.

I played pretty seriously for a few months in 0 sec in an alliance, got bored and quit. Came back a year ago and tried to get myself interested in solo action, got bored and quit. The gatecamping did trigger me a bit. I saw that the people were literally sitting at a gate for ‘hours’ hoping someone like me popped…

No it’s not. There’s gatecamps everywhere and people wouldn’t piss on you if you were on fire. It’s a fucktard troll’s paradise and everyone knows it. It’s a game best seen and never touched. That is, unless you have 100's of hours to invest in a survival of the fittest environment so that you can compete. Watching a…

Not so sure about Kackpappe’s actions though. Sounds like something that would be banned. Not sure they are banned, though. Nothing actually says that repeated ganking of noobs is forbidden, best I can find, but there’s a good chunk of circumstantial evidence to support the opinion. An example given of bannable…

What happened in Elite: Dangerous was one overpowered asshole harassing a bunch of people over a few hours and Frontier doing something about it as soon as they found out [there were actually a couple of other douches that night dragging people out of FTL travel to nuke them, but that’s another story].

EVE once again shows that there is virtually no barrier between wildcat capitalism and a mean-as-shit prank war.

Revenge isn’t about fighting fair: it’s about dealing your nemesis a crushing, humiliating defeat by any means necessary. And their fantastic ruse to trick this guy into an ambush and steal all of his stuff is about as humiliating and crushing as it gets.

In Elite: Dangerous, there was a community event that hundreds of players flocked to.

This is a good lesson for trolls and other griefers. Gonna be a dick? One day, you’ll get fucked back.

Some Count of Monte Cristo shit there man.

That boots quote changed my life. So this year I needed new winter boots (mine were literally splitting at the seams) and instead of going to Payless and spending as little as possible I wore my old boots a little bit longer, scrimped, and bought LL Bean boots instead. They have a lifetime guarantee and can be easily…

You’re presuming the other 65 million are somehow thrilled with the current state of things - that is obviously not true. But their solution is not “burn it all down” but rather “let’s improve what we have.”

Or, instead of wringing our hands about how terrible it is, maybe one could ask the pertinent question about why a substantial portion of the populace is becoming disenchanted with said social contract?

Need to add the two I always come back to:
