Why are there sooooo many Public Avengers in here that believe the more seasoned players have to babysit the noobs? That is complete BS. Didn't we all start out the same exact way? When I started playing at launch I was stomped, stomped, stomped, and stomped some more. I bitched and I complained. But I made it through all that ****. And now the game is very rewarding because I feel like I earned something. I worked through the stomps to become a better player. All the new noobs can do the same or GTFO.
Hell, I still get the occasional stomping when I run solo. But I've learned to change tactics and deal with it. Even through the stomps I still run positive and make isk. You've got to learn somehow. Hand holding is not going to help anyone.

Hand holding is not going to help anyone. It's just sad, and it's nobodies fault but CCP. I think it's unfair for older players to say they are going through the same things the new players are, seeing as how we were on relatively equal levels in both skills and equipment.
Maybe the beta vets but I started at launch. Plenty of high SP players from beta stomped my ass every day, believe me...

Hand holding is not going to help anyone. As a "Public Avenger" I want to see the game succeed because I believe in the concept. If the game doesn't reach some magic number for profitability at some point development will stop and eventually the servers turned off. We need more players. Those players need to stick around and then enjoy the game enough to spend real money on it. If you are selfish and only care about your own success and stomp on the new berries then a high percentage won't stick around long enough to become proficient enough to survive and contribute.
I completely agree with you. But you'll have to excuse me if I turn on a video game for my own selfish enjoyment.
As a side note it should be mentioned I run plasma cannon 99% of the time so I am not protostomping anyone as far as I know.
