The mods are busy playing whack-a-whinge due to the general meltdown after 3.0 triggered all the people who resent change.

Nicely said. I've noticed a decline in surgical mod precision lately. Figured it was for the same reason.

Not married and you watch 'soaps'?
 
Yeah. Why? Because it makes fixed aiming really easy. Bet you've got some super high resolution mouse with a tonne of buttons too.

Using kb/m because you're a student on a laptop your parents bought for you and you can't afford anything else is one thing. Using kb/m because it's the meta is another.
I'm not interested in flying a spaceship with the same controls I use in minecraft, I want to use a HOTAS. Not because it's better, because it feels like what I should be flying a spaceship with. If I play some racing sim I use a wheel & pedals. If I want to play minecraft I use kb/m or a gamepad.

You have min/maxed your ship, you min/max your controller (if a gamepad was the meta you'd use one, right?). I'm not saying it's wrong, I'm saying it's hypocritical to mock others for min/maxing when the typical PvP warrior is so focused on getting the best dps possible they miss out on the rest of the game.

By all means play your own way, for whatever reason, but remember the fox with no tail ;)

Super high DPI... no... my mouse DPI is only 1600, that's not going to win any CS-GO matches anytime soon. I use a mouse because the other 10% of my input is through touch or graphics tablet, I sure as hell ain't going to use a touch input for playing elite.

my "min/maxed" ship is not a meta ship by a long shot... my method of attack is not meta, nothing I do in this game is meta for me.. in fact you can ask most PVPers and they will tell you I consistently go against the meta.

Your comments are nothing more than childish crying.
 
I didn't know apex predators did nothing but talked. I thought the point of being an apex predator was to show your walk.
They are essentially sick of the current population of PvP-kiddies, they also do not have to prove anything to anyone. They also do not have patience for these kinds of idiotic debates and people attempting to justify certain PvP behaviours.

What DPI do you set your mouse to? I've set mine to 800, anything over seems almost too fast.

Yeah I'm drowning in my own tears here :D :D

So... what about Rinzler? The one that started this little line of reasoning. Or any of the other copycat mouse users really.

Why should there be any issue with what kind of input devices a player uses? PC's come with M&K, it makes sense that a PC game should be made for their use. I use a HOTAS for the fun I get from it's use. It's nutty to imply an advantage to something everyone has access to. If someone thinks they offer a benefit, they should use them. Problem solved.
 
As far as I'm concerned, there is only one legitimate use of the blocklist, and that's if someone is genuinely harassing you in chat with abusive language. When it comes to gameplay reasons, I think it's being exploited. And like I said, River, nobody using it like that is going to be spending much time in Open anyhow, so no loss.

Sorry Jason. Just like killing someone, any reason to use the block list is valid.
Don’t like this guys flight suit? Block him.

Personally i dislike the function because it puts more strain on the instancing system, but that’s besides the point.

As long as it’s there, it’s a tool. People should use it the way they want.

There isn't, use what you want. It's the hypocrisy that's so funny ;)
 
@Riverside, I should have known that when you started throwing Aesop's fables at us that you were done and just grinding metal. I'm still scratching my head at how you've a)managed to act like Rinzler "started" anything and b)managed to turn using a mouse into a negative attributed mainly to evil min maxing PvPers.

Edit: why don't you spell out the hypocrisy instead of being so esoteric about it?

No you guys turned it into a big thing, I just don't think it's an achievement worthy of note. Play how you like, just don't be a hypocrite about it imo.

Speaking of mices...

I wish they made a right-handed version of this - I would try swapping out my mouse.

And spoil the fun? Have a guess. Generalise a bit based on the topic. Entertain me :)

I don't feel like entertaining you. I'm genuinely interested in seeing if you have a legitimate point, or if you're simply engaging in the nastiness that drew my attention to this thread in the first place.
