Although none of the bellow are on the topic of this thread, I thank the fallowing Commanders for their time and input to the conversation:
(...) People will argue on the semantics of ‘PvPer’ and ‘ganker’ to fit their narrative and you’ll never win because they’re right, and you’re also right. (...)
It's not a win/lose scenario. I have a full right to chose people to have fun with, as I'm chosing who's reply here I consider worth my personal time to respond. We all have such rights.
(...) I don't think blocking PvP players in this thread is really going to cure your problem in Open. (...)
I'm not having any problems with OPEN. I love it!!!
It gives me the possibility to have fun with real human beings, sharing same pasion for our game. The game itself is also giving me the possibility to just simply cut out the ones that aren't sharing my playstyle.
...and by blocking those kind of "PvP" players I'm also building a master list of an in-game bullies for a future use. By me and by others. Simple.
(...) If you want someone to fly with evenings during Eastern Standard Time you can join my private group.
We'll be hunting pirates around Deciat - we currently only have a 2 man wing but help is always appreciated.
Please note: We're very new so don't expect miracles or anything - I usually lose my shields to asteroids. (...)
Thank you! As far as I appreciate your offer I just love flying OPEN to much.
Okay, because you asked nicely with a cherry on top and everything - here's why you're wrong. (...)
It's nice if someone is nice, isn't it?
(...) You claim to have led big player events in other games, yet you show little skill in the kind of diplomacy required to bring people together. Instead your words come across as arrogant and ignorant (a particularly toxic combination) and you immediately attack the people you're trying to sell to. (...)
If you think I'm trying to bring together and/or sell anything to gankers and bullies, than you're simply wrong.
(...) ...it's clear you have little experience with either the existing PVP population (both the total size and make up) or the instancing limitations in the game. I'd bet real money you've never even participated in a single wing vs. wing fight involving just 8 people, let alone 60. (...)
Based on your last comment down below it's clear, it's you who have little experience with this game's PvP population.
(...) You're pitching an idea to a game population that doesn't really exist. "Ganking" or "griefing" are very subjective terms which you have not defined. (...)
If something doesn't exist for you it doesn't mean it doesn't exist at all. It's very easy to destinguish a ganker, griefer or any on-line bully from a casual player. The second one is simply polite to other players.
(...) Based on your trigger happy blocking behavior evident in just this one thread, I'd guess that you'd disqualify 90% or more of the existing players who engage in PVP. (...)
Guess again, as you overshoot this one by lightyears.
Can we now please get back to the thread's topic? Thank you!
