It's fairly obvious the developers did not intend for people to play the game by ramming walls with a LAV in a safe area and calling down repeated orbital strikes with the points from repairing the LAV. I don't care much personally because the rampant exploitation only hastens the fix, but to act like what these people are doing is fine and they they shouldn't be penalized is pretty silly.

Lol, you call it a "resource".
Be a man and own up to your exploitation. Don't insult the rest of us trying to rationalize your selfishness.

I can't believe people would actually defend Boosting. It's unfair to the enemy team that is getting constantly bombarded by foes they can't hurt, and it's unfair to the teammates who have to fight the battle minus one squad. Not to mention getting reduced SP and ISK rewards because their "contribution" to the total WP pales in comparison to the boosters'.

They're slowing down the skill progression of people who are actually trying the game while speeding up their own. In a couple days, assuming they can ever tear themselves away from Austin Powers-ing LAVs into walls, they'll be riding around in prototype tanks with nothing to fear but the orbital strikes of competing boosters.

If I didn't know better, I'd say they were intentionally sabotaging the game's community. (In reality: thank goodness this became such a rampant problem now instead of after release.)

At this point there is no valid defense of LAV/Forge Gun SP farming.

Claiming that self induced damage repair is a "valid resource" to be mined as if it were ore deliberatetly placed in asteroids by the the dev's is to insult the intelligence of everyone here. It's an exploit and everyone knows it.

So yes, claiming an exploit as a legitimate resourse is a childish thing to do.

Go ahead and be selfish, just don't try to pass it off as anything but selfish.
