Why do people wait until a community goal, to be oles?

I run 512 with an SLF, 752 I find hard with good shields but obviously no SLF which I do like, prepared to compromise...got a build or link or is it private, no worries if it is.

although the build alone won't help you, you'll need to put in some flying effort to make it work. Pips 4/2/0, submit to interdiction, pop a heatsink, select a system to highwake, turn into the aggressor and boost past him, if the FSD is ready charge it. While charging keep turning into the aggressor (it is advisable to do all the turning in FA Off) once the FSD is ready adjust your trajectory and jump.

Tell this to a miner in a slow CMK4 with only 2 utility mounts, where one slot is already occupied by a PWA and you would rather have a shield booster to prevent accidents caused by constant boosting through and close contact in asteroid fields. You should be aware that with most other activities - besides combat - you are effectively crippling your ship. Something that no one would seriously expect from a PvPer.

As long as we got the three modes this is a no-brainer, at least for solo commanders without an escort (whereas I doubt any PvPer who is still right in the head would be willing to escort an often several hours lasting session of VO truffle hunting, but that's another topic).
I am not telling anyone what to do, I just give an advise. What anyone is doing with it is up to them
 
OP: Right there with you and experienced the same thing. Hearing about the community goal made me want to work together with decent human beings to work towards a common goal together. Tried out open for about 5 mins before I was ganked by somebody who had no benefit to gain from killing me (no cargo) and it not like there was any skill or challenge involved since I just sat there with no intention of fighting.
I'll never understand how somebody gets satisfaction from something that takes zero effort/skill/investment of time but hey if that's what makes the happy so be it. Glad I could help one for the evening. nbd. Learned my lesson and went back to solo and have stayed in solo. I guess there also Mobius for people like us but also a bummer there aren't more serious consequences for those that execute acts of senseless violence just like in the real world. Fine be a criminal but if you get caught ... Also now that I think about it I wonder why the gankers just don't play CQC all day?
 
Go try it. If you find a match, you might find out why.
I would but I've got too many things I'd like to accomplish in Elite that actually take some skill than research the mind of gankers that choose to spend the time of their day ruining other people's days. I'll just assumed they got pooped on a lot throughout life and call it a day.
