People just need to redefine their goals.
Stop collecting blue messages. Start exploding with style. :cool:

PvP can be disappointing if you get ganked or the opponent just isn't playing fairly.
Be the better person and make your docking message with pride knowing you cheated them of a cheap blue message.
But really, there are some days I'm up for RP and trading, other days I just have to UNLEASH THE FURY of the right mouse button.
Success rates are variable.

I've found that while a good number of people who sport a fairly poor attitude to combat, the worst are the "bad winners". I'm sure most of you know what I mean...
That said, the problem with people's attitudes to shooting isn't so overwhealming as to make it so I cease doing something I enjoy. That'd be a little bit daft. It's all worth it when you and your opponent are out of bots, out of batts, running low on mines and fighting hard... Knowing that the gap between winning and losing is only a couple of rounds of magma hammers. Both people so deeply engrossed that everything seems to slow down a bit, everything you do is a risk, your awareness of your virtual surroundings increases. And you know that regardless who wins and who loses, it was so intense that both people involved will high-five, congratulate one another on a good fight and walk away from their computer with a grin on their face...
That's why I still get into combat in this game... Because what I just described above more than compensates for ten or twenty bad experiences.

I agree with Joe on this point. There are times and fights when/where you'll be dissapointed, but remember those good fights, when people fight fair to the end.

For me PvP was shooting SNACs at Transports and Capitals. Now I'll be in a Freighter for quite a long Time. Always been just average in fighting with and against Fighters. I hope I can see good old Action again ^_^

Because every player wants to win at PVP, naturally, which means they will be affected by their emotions at its result.
The less you care about the outcome of PVP the more you'll enjoy it. Try hard, but accept the fact that you're not going to win every time.

Avoid Liberty Tau 23 37 Omega 7 Dublin Gamma Alpha
Those systems are like Matrix when Neo fights against tons of Smiths xd

You forgot Texas and Hamburg during naval raids.
But yea, I'm with Joe. One killer experience against a player roughly of equal skill that doesn't get interrupted by some idiot with a battleship sized e-peen is worth more then a dozen 2milordai experiences.
