Yep. You're my mancrush. I guess he has a harder time admitting to it. But yeah, I'm seeing it.

Exactly, its not supposed to be griefing and ganking. Its supposed to be more than that.
It is a very good thing that Player Interactions does not mean PvP. As a matter of fact, you even opine yourself, that BGS/PP stuff is easier in Solo, exemplifying the fact that PvP is a sideshow. All of the game's mechanics work without PvP. All of the combat balance, Engineers, ships, modules, weapons, everything works in PvE. When balance is considered FD have shown that they won't sacrifice PvE aspects of the game to PvP desires. Shield Boosters, and the firing arc of gimballed weapons are two good examples of this.
Fantasy views of some kind of 'PvP-view' dominating E|D is nothing more than wishful thinking. FD's track record shows that they nuance changes in order to facilitate PvE, and allow for PvP. I encourage all players to voice their views and concerns. I have stood up for PvP aspects of this game numerous times. But, I have also defended the PvE'ers plight. I think I can appreciate both sides of the debate. What I see is FD adapting things to work right, and be enjoyable. I am counting on FD continuing a pragmatic approach to E|D's development.

And I don't know if I'm being foolish
Don't know if I'm being wise
But it's something that I must believe in
And it's there when I look in your eyes.
And you think I was talking about combat logging..cute.
Again, you think that having all the players available in Open will mean something for PVP...it won't honestly...no matter how much you think it will...it really won't. Because it's all about the PVE trophy chase.

If you are trying to improve the image of PvPers, I would offer that you aren't doing a good job of it. Ranting and insulting people only reinforces the notion that PvPers can't have decent discourse.
Which is great. Improving any aspect is a good thing.
But if you think they’re going to turn Elite into something other than Elite then you are, with respect, delusional.

Im saying that because you hurt yourself by using open and outfitting for defenses and PVP. You lose jump range, Cargo/passenger space in doing so. Which mean less missions, the chance of death against your opponents and so on.
Thats why Solo and Private is being used and PVP is a side show.
And yet they continue to balance and make changes based around PVP.
Like I said before, all Modules, Missions+++ and ships are based off PVP activities.
But the " PVP " we see is small because you have that mode option. And they are making changes to make changes. Its so easy to see.
Its still going to be Elite Dangerous. With a meaning for PVP.
For the record I don’t want PvP removed.
But make no mistake: if it comes down to a choice of PvE or PvP, they’re going to side with PvE. They have to.
That simply is not true.

Like im insulted almost every time I come to these forums, reported for nothing and so on. Yeah I know its okay.
I actually seen a screenshot I cant post here of things people said to Harry potter during the Salome Event. They called him racist names, and all sorts of things.
Ive only come across like 2 pvpers that have ever done that to me. But the rest of the community is very toxic when it comes to PVP. And thats what I am trying to change. Because its very much part of this game. It has no definition because objectives can be taken in the modes. So all we have is "griefing and ganking". And if you all want to continue to fight against this. Then thats all you guys will have in this game.
And if you guys are happy with the salt and griefing and ganking. Then continue to fight against it.

Prove it. See how I have video, screenshots and so on.
Where are yours?
Ill make it simple for you, take a look at Diablo 3 and see how overpowered abilities and weapons are.
The take a look at World of Warcraft, this I personally helped in Alpha and testing weapons and skills based around PVE and PVP. There had to be balances for both.
World of Warcraft is like elite dangerous in the same way we have PVE and PVP. And there has to be caps and tweaks made for PVP to weapons, gear, enchants and abilities.
Which is what Frontier currently does.
Tell me again im wrong. Go for it.

You're wrong. all modules, ships and missions are not 'based' off PVP activities, some of the weapons are heavily influenced by PVP, yes, some of the ship passes no doubt, yes, all ships, modules plus missions?, wrong, wrong, wrong.

DDDDDDDDDDDenial is wonderful thing sometimes I guess.
Will you stop it. You're probably going to get banned.
Denial is wonderful thing sometimes I guess.
You shouldn't have to guess as apparently you know.
Sorry, but that is the game...that is all there is. Your desire for PVP to matter is never going to happen...it can't. How will you stop the Xbone or PS4 players from undermining you? You will never be able to shoot them in the face. Why does this matter keep escaping you? Your fight is tilting at windmills...because of this huge problem, right here...
Laying groundwork? I thought that 3 years ago...and came to the Hotel California to discuss the problem of CG's. It isn't coming. All that is coming is better ways to multi-play the game...not shoot each other in the face.

My experience says otherwise. Sorry!
Denial is wonderful thing sometimes I guess.
So you should probably stop it then.
I have some nicely Engineered shields, weapons and engines and I don’t use then for PvP. Nor am I ‘supposed to’.

Thats easy, almost all player groups have Xbox and ps4 divisions. Limit the modes to Open only and ALL CONSOLES have Meaningful PVP for player factions and powerplay.
See how easy that was?
