And there is actually a reason we get so many "OMG, I got capwhored by the navy!!" topics and far less "OMG, I got capwhored by pirates in Liberty!!" topics. There's obviously an issue that needs fixing, and previous efforts haven't worked.
The LNS had room to adapt, and take a look at how they were doing things wrong. They didn't for the most part, and now they're getting hit harder. Desperate times call for desperate measures, right?
Matt: So basically you're saying "I don't care, I'm going to continue to kill everything in my battlecruiser, and there's nothing you can do about it."?
I can't count how many times over the past week I've seen multiple gunboats come into NY and basically rape everyone because there was no capital support for us fighters. Maybe the reason that there are fewer topics about "omg!!! pirates r so laym dey cap-ed mes!" is because instead of whining about it on the forums, we grit our teeth, bear it, and fight as best we can. So don't act like they just bring caps in to counter caps. These were mind you, all independent pirates, so, maybe the pirates need something similar?
And again, as it was months ago when I was playing here first, the debate is still raging about who cap-whores who more. At least we don't have the nightly BS/cruiser/gunboat corsair indie-invasion hordes anymore.
