Question for Open players who don't like PVP/ganking... help me understand

Perhaps, but it did show that when they are there they make a difference. I think they are having a holiday, enjoying the sights. The Bubble is only a suicidewinder away after all :)
Did they make a difference in Deciat? I'm too new to say. But regardless of impact, I support the concept of lawfuls & bounty hunters in opposition to outlaws. That's fun!

I think they are having too much fun in the Colony to wish to return to the mundane drag of protecting paper ships in Deciat from ships that may actually pose a threat to them if they are not in double wings :)
Deciat will have to attract new protectors somehow in my opinion.
 
Do you guys not know about buying a cheap ship, blowing it up and taking the sidewinder in your starter system option? I thought that was common knowledge.

Takes 3 days to get the ship transferred back of course.

Sure, but if they really did jump their fleet carriers out there, and now said FCs are stranded due to lack of fuel, and if they had all their combat ships aboard the aforementioned FCs... they'd have to suicidewinder back to the Bubble and then re-engineer new combat ships from scratch (or pay a fortune to have them shipped back). And potentially buy new FCs to get in-Bubble mobility back.

Might just be too much to contemplate, I guess?

And costs - what? 120% of the value of the ship?... I remember shipping out my fleet last year, I had to fly the Cutter and Corvette out as my 2 billion credits I went there with evaporated :)

Yes, if only because Deciat seal clubbers and Spear members blocking each other led to instancing issues.
 
The biggest irony of all is that, of all the game that I know of, ED is still the only one where a fraction of the players want everyone in the main public server, instead of asking for private ones. Especially when a population of PvPers is low; matchmaker non-existent and there is no automated cheat detection...
 
I'm getting rumours that a bunch of people are really bitter about Spear & aren't altruistically offering tea & sympathy.

I'm getting rumours that some people just want them to fail, even though what they did was pretty cool regardless of hat colour.

Can't stand mining, but if I have to do it I'll just do it. Personally I'd just fly a ship with a scoop back, but that's just me.

Wouldn't know about those rumours, but then - I'm in the neighbourhood... Isn't the term "rumours" just a polite way of dressing "Lies"?

I only used the word because you did Rat Catcher.

They are having an adventure, whatever they are doing. I wish them the best of luck.

The point though, is that if Spear wanted to get back to Deciat they could get back pretty quickly, particularly if they have that rarest of items in the game, some credits.

I used rumour as a lie in my post... or was that just a little too subtle ;)
