Oh please. Don't even try this BS argument with me. The very long list of cutters I have had sunk out from underneath me says all that needs to be said about how "risk-free" I like to play.

As for challenge, try attacking a HH or similar ship with nothing but a pair of small boats and then try to tell me it isn't a challenge, or solo a higher level ship in a small boat, etc.

I like to use lower level ships to beat higher level ones. Why? Because I like the CHALLENGE of it. So take your bogus accusation and shove it where the sun don't shine, before I start pointing out how the accusation is not only totally false when applied to me, but also is ironic coming from someone who is afraid to do anything but tank his ship for maximum protection and stay huddled tightly together with 5 others, and who is now blubbering because the game just got too hard for him.

Try making a vanilla ship beat a pherc or mc herc, then try doing it again while also being faster.

Nobody is making you sail any particular type of ship at all. That is totally your choice.

Nobody makes me sail vanilla ships, but nobody gives me bundleboats and I hate grind so I sail them. Nobody makes you sail cutters, we are both looking for a different type of challenge. The challenge I was looking for was 6vs6 fights, and they took that out. FLS has till tuesday to remove the UBERGANK, or I quit, but enough rambling. Enjoy your game.

Completely agree.

Small ship pvp is easy to learn and difficult to master while huge ship pvp is easy to learn and easy to master. In the hands of an experienced player the cutter is the ultimate 1v1 ship.

Thank you for acknowledging that the way I play is also challenging, instead of parotting that ridiculous "risk free failboat" nonsense that I so often hear.

I don't want to see you quit, but if you feel you must, that is up to you obviously.

But something to consider before you do that: your society often says it is waging a kind of economic warfare, using cheap ships to sink expensive ones. You can still do that, you know. I play a sort of economic warfare game myself, doing the same thing, only using a different ship to do it with.

Nothing is stopping your society from continuing its economic warfare, using cheaper ships to sink more expensive ones. I do that very thing on a daily basis. Just something to consider.

Btw: I find it strange to see people say that 6 v 6 is no longer possible. I had only one hour to play earlier today, and in that hour i saw 3 separate 6 v 6 fights near IP; Brits v Pirates and Frenchies v Pirates.

I urge you to give the new system a chance to see how it shakes out, rather than assuming the sky has fallen. While you are on this forum claiming that 6 v 6 is no longer possible, other players are in game fighting 6 v 6's .
