"Unfair" PVP

[Binski]

All's fair in love and war.

When it comes to piracy or bounty hunting, or random pvp battles, the point originally is that better numbers better your chances. Unfair to one is fair to another. Plenty of times pirates are doing that, and suddenly police/navy ships appear and the numbers game could turn on them.

When it comes to events and the quest for 'balanced' pvp, the problem is that we are so sadly wanting of meaningful events, players just have to make them up themselves, and since there is nothing they can do to provide any extra incentive to get involved, people divide up in advance to balance a fight in advance.

I have always believed though that events where something is at risk that people care about is what get's people out fighting hard regardless of being outnumbered. Every event should be like that, and there should be no real need for players to put together 'just for fun' or minor rp value events. If events that were arising were constantly over defending planets, territory like systems in general, or important stations, the events wouldn't need registration, no special rules negating normal rules of the server (which shouldn't even be allowed) and provide a more long term reason to RP/pvp around. Yet there is this weird glitch of a philosophy going around that seems to still want to keep it locked down here like there's no other way to go about things. This place is still going to waste most of the time.
