Experiment Failure

I'm going to list my tengu project as a failure right now. While it did what I wanted it to do, I din't enjoy doing it. I found that I do not enjoy using missiles. Perhaps, I will adjust to it later. As is, I am used to blasters and auto cannons. The differences with missiles and travel time and not hitting things and size issues is just blah for me. Maybe with better or maxed skills, I'd find it more pleasant. As for now, I don't. I was told how awesome the Tengu is and that I should want to use it. They are amazing PvE boats. Well, I do not. While I try to be open minded and take the advice of others into consideration, sometimes it does not work out. If I had said "I refuse to try the Tengu cuz its not what I want" that would be one thing. However, I tried it and I do not like it. PVE boats have not been the most productive path for me so far. I've found that happens for me in Eve. Some ships and weapons work for me and some do not. I love my Jag and really can't be bothered to fly my Wolf. They are the same hull and almost identical in looks but I really dislike one over the other. PvE has been and still is my bane in Eve. While I am getting better at it, it is still not easy or pleasant for me. I'd figured out something that was working, productively. I decided to try to expand upon that. My expansion project didn't go as well as I had hoped. But, that is part of learning. Not everything works for everyone and no amount of ranting signs will make it happen. So, I'll go back to duel boxing sites. It was much more productive then what I have been doing. I also won't have to suffer the horror of faction missile prices again. Gag me with a spoon. Thankfully some of my faction shinies in Jita sold, leaving my wallet fluffier then it has been all month.

Taboo Questions

Let us talk contentious things. What about high sec? When will CCP pay attention to high sec and those that cannot spend their time in dangerous space?  This is somewhat how the day started, sparked by a question from an anonymous poster. Speaking about high sec, in general, is one of the hardest things to do. The amount of emotion wrapped around the topic is staggering. There are people who want to stay in high sec and nothing will make them leave. There are people who want no one to stay in high sec and wish to cripple everything about it. There are people in between, but the two extremes are large and emotional in discussion. My belief is simple. If a player wishes to live in high sec, I do not believe that anything will make them leave that is not their own curiosity. I do not believe that we can beat people out of high sec or destroy it until they go to other areas of space. Sometimes, I think we forget that every player has the option to not log back in. We want them to log

CSMX - Post #20

Summer is here and CCP is very much out of the office. Sion made a good point in wondering why everyone leaves Iceland when it has its best weather. What it means is that all is mostly quiet on the dev blog front. There are some things happening but the dev blogs and news announcements have not yet happened. The skill points were delivered on Tuesday  so yay for unallocated skill points. Over in CSM chat, there has been a lot of back and forth about sov and measuring the impact and success of things so far. I can say that CCP and the CSM are watching it. The pros and cons are coming in pretty hot and heavy. Some are being looked at now. Some have to see how things are going and if and how the direction needs to be tweaked. In my corner, I'm starting to gather things together. The summit is in seven or so weeks. In between then and now I need to gather up my question list and write down a few topics of discussion. I'm starting now because I have personal vacation at the end

Conflicted

Halycon said it quite well in a comment he left about the skill point trading proposal for skill point changes. He is conflicted in many different ways. So am I. Somedays, I don't want to be open minded. I do not want to see other points of view. I want to not like things and not feel good about them and it be okay. That is something that is denied me for now. I've stated my opinion about the first round of proposals to trade skills. I don't like them. That isn't good enough. I have to answer why. Others do not like it as well. I cannot escape over to their side and be unhappy with them. I am dragged away and challenged about my distaste.  Some of the people I like most think the change is good. Other's think it has little meaning. They want to know why I don't like it. When this was proposed at the CSM summit, I swiveled my chair and asked if they realized that they were undoing the basic structure that characters and game progression worked under. They said th
