I hope DW2 gets ganked all the way to Beagle Point.

I think this would be a great opportunity to actually demonstrate the profound annoyance

Ahh, yes, for the sake of demonstrating profound annoyance, I hope DW2 gets ganked all the way to Beagle Point by killer NPC Beluga Pirates that maneuver like a Viper. They also need to be ganked by flickering shadows, elephant butt leather, and disappearing stars. [haha]

It seems getting into the gaming press is the biggest objective of these ganks. Could it be... that it's just all about the attention?

Certainly. Just as nature abhors a vacuum, The Kardashians of the ED community abhor any event not featuring them as the main attraction.
 
FDev is removing the "dangerous" in ED. It's quickly becoming Elite:Carebear

That happened long ago and its only gotten worse over the years. Whilst I think the DW2 seems like a cool sort of thing what I do find rather pathetic is the entitlement certain players have when it comes to the way they play and the way this is backed up by Braben. Identifying as an 'explorer' doesn't (or shouldn't) mean they are a better class of player and nor should it come with any extra privileges even if Frontier acts as if its the case.

I KILLED THEM, ZIGGY! Alright?! Is that what you wanted to hear? I killed them.

How could I not kill them? They were arriving in droves, in paper thin ships, at a location that had been broadcasted for weeks to every palooka with a pulse laser.

And we warned them. We kept saying "You're gonna die, you're gonna die...". Some even went so far as to give them outfitting advice. And so many ignored it - some even mocked the advice!

Leading up to the event, they were like deer coming to the feeder. On the day of the event, they were like a coop full of fluffy chickens all gathered around one big fat worm. And when the foxes got in... feathers everywhere, dude. It was glorious.

That's right, I killed them. Lots and lots of them, and my friends did, too. And I'm going to keep killing them all the way to Beagle.

Did it make ya feel big.....

I've killed other players before, but only on a one or two basis, and mostly around piracy... mostly.

This was on another scale though. You should try it sometime, man. It's a lot of fun.
But I wouldn't find it fun; Knowing I was simply frustrating and aggravating those players for the sake of frustrating and aggravating those players... I wouldn't get enjoyment out of that.

What if it were me, Neil? If you happened upon me and I had left myself open, would you take the shot?

Frankly? Honestly? Why would I shoot anyone without a good reason, let alone cause them the needless grief of destroying them? The only reason I've done it in the past is when needlessly attacked, and a couple of times when pirating when even after numerous chances someone simply wouldn't comply etc.

But ultimately, even after four years, there's so little to truly fight for in the game. So few causes in the game to sign up for. So little impoteous to "side up". It's such a shame PvP just isn't being orchestrated and promoted by the game :( *sigh*

In what way does identifying as an 'explorer' mean a better class player?

I've seen things you people wouldn't believe ...
NPC Beluga Pirates that maneuver like a Viper...
Been ganked by flickering shadows...
All those moments will be lost in time
Like elephant butt leather, and disappearing stars.
Time to die
