Yup because a half competent pilot simply cannot just Warp Out of systems if they see us approaching, they can't tackle and neut us, kite us at 5km and burns us before our MCC even gets close....... yup logic just doesn't apply in your little world does it?

It always makes me laugh when the notion of a Dust mercs being able to interact -and by that I naturally mean raid, burn and pillage- with the various assets of the EvE capsules community and they immediately scream and wail about the horrific unfairness of such a terrible idea.

These, who LITERALLY invented and perpetuate the mentality of "Welcome to New Eden, now HTFU scrub." Self-interested hypocrites. And I say thst as a pod pilot myself.

Thing is, if Dust is to grow to its fullest potential it needs to stop being an amusing sideshow and cash cow for EvE alliances with nothing better to do, and move right into the territory of becoming a potential threat (and by inference, a potential boon) to the wider Eden community. They need to be scared of us, we need to be wary of them. That social dynamic needs to happen, and it can only be brought to life through well-judged game mechanics.
