The EvE Personality Test

This is a user-written personality test created with the Personality Test Generator. Rum and Monkey isn't responsible for its content, however good or bad it may be.

This test poses a number of questions that have been more or less recent topics for discussion on Eve-O. The results are to be taken with a grain of salt, but maybe it can be an eye-opener for some people.

Chose the answer that is closest to how you feel about the subject. If no answer feels close enough, just skip the question.

What do you believe was CCP's intention with High Security systems (0.5+)?

High sec shouldn't be a killing ground, but it should never be safe. There should be no "opting out" of PvP in Eve.

High sec was intended as a free-for-all, just like low- and nul-sec. This is evidenced by the fact that CONCORD was an afterthought rather than original design.

High sec is intended to be safe. A place where people can make isk in peace.

While high sec shouldn't be completely safe, it was definatly intended as a place where new players and people who don't like PvP can stay without being bothered too much with PvPers.

What is your attitude towards suicide ganking?

It's a valid play style that should exist in the game. It needs balancing, though, and the removal of insurance is a good way to balance it.

Suicide ganking goes against all common sense. It has no RL counterpart at all, and should for the sake of realism be removed from the game.

Suicide ganking is a crap mechanic that should be a bannable offense. It's griefing in its purest form.

Suicide ganking only happens to weak and stupid players, and is a good mechanic in the setting of EvE. It's pure Darwinism in action.

Suicide ganking is needed in the game to balance out the true problems of Eve: The virtual immunity of players in high sec NPC corps.

Which is the best race?

Caldari

Minmatar

Gallente

Amarr

All races are good at different things. It's impossible to determine which race is best.

Which ever race allows me to kill a certain enemy at a certain time.

What is the most pressing concern CCP has to face/implement at the moment?

Suicide ganking

Nanofaggotry

The immunity of NPC corps

Lag

Ambulation

Bigger secure cans

High sec missions paying too much

Cynojammers

What are your feelings toward smacktalk?

Talking smack is a way for feeble minded and weak people to get their jollies. It is not necessary and detracts from the over all enjoyment of the game.

A bit of smack never hurt anyone, and it can be really funny sometimes.

Smack is a way to get back at someone. If he can't handle being smacked, he shouldn't log in.

Smack is a way to get your enemy to do stupid things.

How do you best fit a Raven?

Cloak, Cruise Missiles and a Heavy specialized tank.

Siege Launchers, Passive tank and a full rack of BCS.

Cloak, Cruise Launchers, ECM, Sensor Boosters and WCS.

Cruise Launchers, Sensor Boosters and BCS.

If you could add one thing and remove one thing from Eve, what would those be?

Add: Mines, Remove: CONCORD

Add: More PvE content, Remove: Non-consentual PvP.

Add: Mini-freighters, Remove: Gatecamps

Add: Standardized ransom system, Remove: NPC corp immunity

Add: More 0.0 space, Remove: Lag

Add: Flavor to low sec, Remove: Cynojammers

The game is good enough as it is. If CCP decides to add or remove something, I'll just adapt.

What should be done about the Jita-problem.

CCP needs to get their heads out of their asses and boost the Jita node now! Jita is the main trade center in Eve, and it's not going to change.

Jita is only lagging because people keep going there. If people stopped going to Jita, the problem would solve itself.

CCP should make Jita into a no-weapons zone. That would remove the gankers, because they are the real problem in Jita.

Jita should be severely nerfed. The CPU-power that is freed from the Jita node is severely needed elsewhere.

In an economy report from late 2007, it was noted that 49% of active characters never ventured out of high sec. Disregarding the rest of the report, what do you think can be gathered from this number?

That almost half of the player-base are PvE players only, and that the needs of PvE players should go before the needs of the PvP minority.

It means too many players don't bother to play the game properly. It means high sec is too safe. The only way to get people to participate in the game is to nerf high sec.

It means less lag for 0.0.

It doesn't mean anything. It's just a number that showed where people spent most of their time.

CCP has decided to nerf the so called nano-fits, and recently put out a dev blog outlining various ways of how to accomplish this. What are your opinions of this?

The dev blog basically outlines how to kill small scale PvP in Eve. From now on, it will all be about blobs.

While the nano-issue needs some serious looking into, I don't believe the ways CCP has outlined are the best ways to go about fixing the problem.

It's about time nanoships got a real nerf. For too long has it been a question of nano or GTFO. Now other ships will be viable.

Those nano-*****s had it coming. Now it's their turn to adapt or die!

Ambulation seems to be approaching. What is your opinion about this project?

It's going to be great fun seeing your character in full. It's needed for true immersion in the game.

It's a fun addition, but I hope CCP aren't spending too much time with it. It's not vital to the game in any way.

It's a useless addition. CCP should be spending time fixing lag and other serious issues. Ambulation is just fluff.

It messes up the dynamics of the game. Stationcamping, for example, is supposed to be boring for the camped. Now they can do stuff to keep themselves entertained in there while we have to sit staring at the station exterior.

It's just a way for CCP to test out the engine for their upcoming WoD MMO. It's got nothing to do with Eve. I don't care about it either way.

Would you pay a ransom if offered?

I never pay ransoms. The pirates will just blow my ship up anyway, so there's no point.

I would do it if it meant I would lose less than if I was to lose my ship. Most pirates honor ransoms.

I'd never let the pirate have the satisfaction of walking away with my isk.

What do you feel about war declarations?

High sec wars is just another tool for griefing PvE based players. It should be removed.

In its current form, wars are more often used as a griefing tool than not. It should be reworked until it is used as intended: A tool for corporations to settle their differences.

War decs are fine as they are. Since the "Alliance P" nerf, war decs have been used less as griefing tools and more as a way to conduct high sec piracy. It's a needed part of the game.

War decs are useful ways of hurting your enemy's logistics. They should be kept in the game. They might be reworked to cost a bit more, though.

It should be possible to declare war on NPC corps too. Noone should be immune in Eve.

BACON was a third party program that emitted an audible signal when a user defined event occured in local, such as a player with low standings to your corp entered. CCP has never outright banned the program, but they have said that they "frown upon" its use, and that they will rework the mechanics that allows it to work. What do you think about BACON and its use in EvE?

BACON was a good program to have when ratting in 0.0. It let you unwind a bit. A game is supposed to be fun and not full of stress. BACON allowed me to relax. And it's not like BACON automated anything that couldn't be done by just paying attention.

BACON was a boost to lazy AFK game play and skewed the risk/reward factor in 0.0. It should have been banned oficially from the get go.

BACON wouldn't have made any impact on 0.0 climate. Sure, it would allow weak carebear alliances to save some of their ships, but in the end, those kind of alliances still die.

BACON allowed targets to get away without any possibility for me to ever get at them. It is plain cheating.

BACON should be implemented into the game-code by CCP. It is unrealistic that ships of the future wouldn't have this technology.

CCP should ban all third-party programs. Special dispensation could be issued to programs like VOIP clients and EveMon and the like. Everything else should be against the EULA.

What are your views on pirates and piracy in EvE?

Piracy is a profession like any other. It should be balanced like other professions, and should be equally easy to make a living out of.

Piracy needs a boost like no other profession. It's impossible to make a living in low sec, so we have to move ot high sec. Either boost low sec to get people out there, nerf high sec to get people to low sec, or boost high sec piracy.

Low sec piracy is a lot of fun and is in need of a boost.

Piracy is not a real profession and should not be boosted in any way. Instead, high sec piracy should be removed and gatecamps severely nefed.

Piracy should be kept to low sec and 0.0. High sec piracy needs to be nerfed.

What is your opinion on level 4 high sec mission running?

Level 4's in high sec pay too much isk. They should be nerfed.

Level 4's should all be moved to low sec or 0.0. That would even out the risk vs reward.

High sec missions are all fine.

High sec missions need to be boosted. Their payout is too small with regards to the constant threat of suicide ganking.

How do you feel about the local-channel?

The local channel should not be used as an intelligence gathering tool. As that's basically the only thing it's used for now, it should be removed. Constellation chat is enough.

Local makes it impossible to sneak up on people. It needs to go.

Local is vital for wars in Eve. Without it, there wouldn't be as much PvP as there is today, as noone would find anyone else.

Local is a must. Without it there is no defence against roaming griefer gangs.

I don't care. I don't even watch local.

What do you think about scamming in EvE?

Scamming should be a bannable offense, and everything gained through a scam should be returned to the victim.

Scamming is a good way of sorting out the idiots from the smart people. Idiots get scammed. Smart people get rich.

Scamming using in-game means is part of the game. It's not a problem. Just use contracts properly and you won't get scammed.

Scamming is out of hand at the moment. The trade-channel is useless as every other offer there is a scam. It needs to be looked at by CCP.

Turd Ferguson. It's a funny name.
