Cool. Clubbing seals is hardly hunting, though. That'd be tedious.



Tedious



Tedious. It doesn't teach anything to new players except to understand that some players are tedious.



So you are using an out-of-game reason to justify in-game actions. That's just tedious.



Your job has nothing to do with your actions in game, regardless of how wholesome and worthwhile [up] that job is.



We both know that isn't true.



If the reasons for clubbing seals aren't here yet, why club seals now? Illogical.



Trust me, they definitely won't suicide from tedium without the presence of seal clubbing. On the other hand, the clubbed seals just find being clubbed tedious. You have that the wrong way around.



PvP Cheats have prevented that and ensured it will probably never be incorporated well.



Another out-of-game reason. Another tedious non-reason that can be discounted as irrelevant.



Another out-of-game reason. Another tedious non-reason that can be discounted as irrelevant.



Duh?



Irrelevant. You can't reason that you're tackling perceived injustice by doing something entirely irrelevant.



Of the clubbed seals, do all of those continue to play the game, keep buying the game seasons content and store add-ons? No. Seal clubbers do themselves a disservice. They do us all a disservice.



Metaphor?
If we're talking a potential malaria carrier. Kill them all.
If we're talking UK, I let them be, because it is not worth my energy or concern, because they pose me no Danger.
Clubbing seals is the latter.



Yet another out-of-game reason. Yet another tedious non-reason that can be discounted as irrelevant.



Keep setting them up.
And we'll keep knocking them down.

Same old same old.

Shift work snaps the spring of your body clock (assumption made on your saving lives post), mines been wrecked for decades. Thick curtains help a lot, and eating at regular times even when you really don't feel like it. Never be tempted to self medicate with alcohol, it works but creates more problems than it cures.

So, I was just wondering if anybody has any suggestions for why people do this stuff?

bored players, never experience true pvp and dont want to lose ship for re-buy.
Simply bored/frustrated with current PvP state and bored with PvE. Also with big chance of combat logging. Its nice to kill some vipers/sideys when you doing exploits all day long in Solo mode.[yesnod]

I was always quite critical towards seal clubbers. Then I realised I do this on a daily basis on the forums.

So yeah, everyone's a hypocrite.

No patience. Blowing the principal out of proportion.
I like when they try to jump me and I seldom fly a big or well equipped ship. I enjoy it. Declaring your intentions makes it artificial. No suspense. Predictable. Boring.
If they camped out and killed me repeatedly I'd have an issue with that and hide in solo for a while
but I choose open for the extra excitement of dancing in supercruise or winning the interdiction because I probably won't survive the encounter if I fail or submit.
I think projecting your own psychological association (and degree of seriousness) of the game on others and assuming they're essentially domineering psycho-cowards in real life is more of a sad and insecure thing then what they do. They're either bullies or bullied, hunh? Too much sensitivity can be toxic to the sensitive.

Hehh. :D No you are not, and neither me. You know why? Because we are only responding.
The only question remains how we responding? Are we uphold the principle of gradualism, and minimal necessary force?

Yeah... Well? :) let's see how you going to think after more than a decade in KOS list.

Do not pretend for a second you understand this if you havent victimised or at least some bullying jerks tired to do so.

Do not think you understand their Psycho profile, and behaviour if you are?

1, Not an expert.
2, not experienced countless times.

That's all...

Edit; Know what? Better if not. I can't wish this for anyone. Not with clean conscience anyway.

You realize this a video game right? Noone is killing them in RL, they dont loose anything, no real money is involved, their rebuy is minimal, whats the issue? stop making this into your amateur psychological analysis. Its a space shooting game, they shouldn't be in Eravate to begin with anyway, nothing is there that cant be found in other systems.

Statements like these are the reason is so fun to murder in this game, because people get upset over pixels and start analyzing psychological profiles and spit salt in all directions, combine this with the lack of real content and thats your simple explanation.

Until someone got hurt, and a man whom in KOS in 10 years, got hurt, even if he capable to simply shake it off.

Do not even attempt to explain this is just a harmless fun. That's impossible.

And even so? I do not going to care, and neither the ones whom psychologically crippled by the likes of you. I'm NOT going to be waste my time to explain anything to you. That's a futile waste of time since it's not your intrests to admit anything.

And for the readers? take a look to his sig. Nothing else needed to be said, and now you go where belong.

Apart from when he and his 'followers' IP trace, interrogate and get FDev to shadowban a 'Gankers' kid based on their kangaroo court, right?

Or when he internet stalked and harrassed another chap on linkedin?

I'm more than happy for purist pvp players to sit in their own box, but the suggestion that their ingame protection justifies out of game action is ludicrous.

Look, you have no right to disclose my medical psychiatric condition for the whole forum to see. I am getting treated on a weekly basis by 2 of the best shrinks in my country. I take my meds regularly, what more do you want? Do you think its easy?

I hardly saw the outside of my basement for a while now, thats where I pass my time by killing new players in Eravate, it helps me to alleviate the daily pain.

Not everyone are as lucky as you are, some of us are not all there, and we do try to get better.

If you go to the metal health thread, you'll notice that there are plenty of people who have worse situations than you and yet they don't seal club.

Is it a sign of my own sick state of mental health that this post made me smile?
