Many AFK simply because our backs are tired from carrying everyone. Moreover we've tried to organize you and you simply insist on running around like headless chickens.
Moreover we decided to give CCP a rest from the constant NERF this, This is OP, this Is UP, These guys cheat, these guys have modded controllers, SP gap is too high I demand a reset, Tank spam in skirmish is unfair and the litany of threads that have basically come down in frequency since we started AFKing about a month ago.
We've given you a chance to progress without the constant bash into nothingness giving you time to learn some of the nuances of the game without us constantly bashing you to the point of playing more time in the respawn screen than the game.
So to that end... YOUR WELCOME |

The Medic Droid wrote:I was in a match earlier today; went 13 kills 9 deaths and accrued 2025 war points. It was a close battle, we were neck and neck with the enemy team, but ultimately we lost.
Five players were hanging out in the MCC the entire match.
Five players that could have turned the tide and helped us to win.
I lose 120,000 isk whenever I die, so I lost 1,080,000 isk from that battle (I was awarded 299,035 isk at the end of the battle). I healed the wounded, revived the fallen, and resupplied the vanguard at every chance. I broke my bank trying to win, matched the enemy blow for blow, and was denied a victory because of the inaction of five people.
And yet the only argument for this practice is "the game is broken," "the game is boring," or "they don't want to lose suits for nothing."
I would like to hear an actual compelling argument. It is very annoying to lose under these circumstances.
The compelling reason is in your own argument. There is a reason why there is a downturn in activity among the veteran community. (by veteran i mean every leet player and every player whose character has over 4-5M SP or has been playing since Jan 22nd Open Beta but more so ALL CLOSED TESTERS).
We have been doing this for months. We've been dealing with the gameplay bugs and having to deal with the minefield of players who simply don't know what they are doing.
Add to this our competitive nature means we would do the same as you to secure the W. But in the end suits, salvage, and ISK are all COMMODITIES that will factor in the upcoming build (6 weeks). When a person can earn nearly the same levels of all of these things from AFKing as they can actually trying to play and gain at ZERO risk people are going to do that because to them the PUB match is not the game. Its the only mode we have now for nearly a year.
People are building stockpiles and warchests. As ive said when PC/FW comes both of which will allow for SP/ISK gain as well you will see much of this AFK community disappearing from pubs anyway. Those that would AFK in pubs will also likely play to hit cap as fast as possible to focus on PC/FW.
Point is this "widespread" problem will self-resolve in 6 weeks. |

i'll say it again since people are too thick skulled to get it.
If you have a problem with it tell CCP and force them to change it.
Moreover this "problem" self corrects in 6 weeks.
Where are all the large player groups who scoffed at the idea of scaring off new FPS players because lack of gameplay and stuff the FPS vets pushed for saying this game would lose FPS players and responsed CCP knows what they are doing and thats why EVE has grown for the past 10 years?
Seems like the prospect of losing new players that could be potential ISK/Gear farms has them singing a different tune  |

I'm thinking 50% of Zion never even knew I was a corp member, considering how little I actually did with the corp. Just left because I didn't want my actions to reflect Zion since I wasn't doing anything for/with them anyways. I noticed the moment you joined Zion. I was like, "Yay, another corp mate to prowl the forums with." Then I got banned a few days later.  You me and Gen Tib would of been of been fun lol gen tib is awesome to prowl the forums with, we have an entire thread about bacon going right now. lol sounds fun. Nothing better then bacon.

Only amateurs AFK farm for SP.
Pros AFK Farm while farming for likes; after all that's the "real" game. |
