I fondly remember getting someone probated in a non-eve thread because they were a loving moron, only for them to take action against my inactive goonsquad account because I was somehow a spy/pubbie. Enjoy your dead game weirdo.

No, it was someone who fancied themselves a spymaster but also wasn't important enough to remember their name. It was also years at this point. DBRB is unforgettable.

Whats up with them camping a system and insta-killing anything that jumps in?

I mean, you just force people to get standings with the trigs and then go back to exactly what they were doing before. Its just so pointless. Get a rookie ship, shoot at edencom, go back to normal. No meaningful decisions made. No drawback for choosing.

The only things being gained is pissing off people who are uninformed. I am sure at this point its lost them more money in subs then its gained.

I'm still not fully up to speed on all of this new alien stuff. Until they killed those Horde JFs I was happily flying through their systems (granted always in an interceptor/frigate/pod) :shrug:

Do they leave you alone once you have standings, and is CONCORD still a thing in those systems? Asking for a me.

You go shoot one evecom guy and its like nothing changed. Evecom doesn't shoot you until you are -1.0 with them. Trigs shoot you until you have any positive rep with them.

To be fair, it's not "complete" yet

Imagine if incursions only spawned the smallest easiest sites and we just assumed that was all there is to it, that's basically what you're doing now. Not that I hold it against you, CCP gave you no choice really. The lore explanation for all this stuff is non-existant so far

I don't understand the comparison. One is an optional part of the game a casual player can understand and plan their game time around pretty easily and the other is being instantly exploded in the middle of highsec while doing your arc mission. I can't imagine what the new player experience is like with these things going on. Low level agents are giving them missions and lead into instant death with no alternative pathways into a target system. Its loving dumb on levels never seen before in eve.

And turning a highsec system into a nullsec system, forever, seems incredibly dumb considering how highsec is mapped out. loving with highsec at a massive level is going to dumpster this game.

There are systems in which you can't go around it. This is going to get worse the longer it goes on.

Like, imagine being a returning player and seeing all your poo poo in a highsec system that is now nullsec. A system where you will be instantly podded.

Open the Agency, go to Triglavian, click on stellar recon, and go to the high sec systems where invasions are happening.

As I understand they only invade high sec of .5 or higher.

I did this just now, funny enough there is exactly one highsec system in the rear end end of nowhere. I traveled the vast area of lowsec just to get there. I am now .01 and now white to trigs. Mission success.

The Flow must not be denied. Extirpate those would would deny the Flow.

I will bitch though that NPC ships that were EDENCOM weren't even listed as EDENCOM. Nothing in the details of the ship at all. They seemed like like regular Faction NPCs that you would get concorded for shooting at. It wasn't until i flew to the correct staging area and noticed PCs shooting them and then using my rookie ship to pot shot them.

If only the Interface told you enough to get you squared away with what is going on. PVE mechanics don't need to be shrouded in loving mystery.

This actually screws up people and is NEVER explained properly.

Like said above, go to a system that just started getting invaded by the Trigs (use tha agency tab to find it).

Go to the smallest Edencom spawn (will show up in the agency tab again)

There will be some ships there (or they will spawn shortly) that are NOT a Trig or "Edencom" (like the new ships). Instead it will be racial navy ships for your region. Depending on your overview settings, they may or may not show up.

Kill ANY on the racial naval ships that spawn at your site, then warp out.

After the tick, you will lose like .02 standings with Edencom and no change with the Trigs.

Note: there are still some Trigs that will shoot at you. Not exactly sure if I encountered a bug or they are special somehow, didn't stick around to verify. But the gate camps will leave you alone.

To expand upon this, I saw the exact same gain with the trigs that I saw losses with Edencom. I am at .01 and -.01 respectively after shooting at a few ships getting blown up by another fleet. I asked if I could do just that in local and I think every person shooting at things invited me over.

If by "jabber and mumble" you mean "not discord," it's because discord is third party. You can't control the servers, and the counterintel aspect of eve simply can't be done there. Also, it's relatively simple for a poorly-socialized, undershowered individual to get a discord server shut down by flagrantly abusing the ToS, then reporting the server.

Don't expect GSF to move to discord ever.

Lmao, of course spying on you is it’s only redeeming quality. :bravo:
