For example, if you can tell me what Damage Reduction Factor is and how it affects missile damage mechanics, without Googling it -- then I'm going to conclude that you probably know your poo poo about Eve, and from that point on I'm going to pay attention to what you say, regardless of whether you use "toon" or not.
Handwavey bullshit number that's static for any given class of missile, comes into play in the sig/exp radius*explosion velocity/target velocity factor of the damage equation, and essentially confers an extra bit of benefit for using a smaller and/or more precise missile by increasing the multiplier that your base missile damage is increased by. Doesn't necessarily mean that smaller and/or more precise missile actually does more damage than a faction variant though. Isn't displayed as an attribute ingame, who the gently caress knows why.

* How do you recoup your escrow costs when performing a margin trading scam?
Easiest way is to just sell no more than 23% of the total order value to yourself, which eliminates any chance of anyone who knows how to properly break a margin trade scam order from getting anything from you.

ullerrm posted:

* What's the process for calculating how many bombs you need to launch to kill a fleet of X?
Bombs have an explosion radius but not explosion velocity (you know maybe they should, that would be one possible avenue to further mitigate their utility against smaller ships and maybe bring some lost diversity back to doctrine warfare...), so divide EHP to the damage type by min(1,sig radius/explosion radius), then divide resulting number by bomb damage, 7680 if you're assuming covops 4 scrubs, then divide by 7 for number of waves needed.

ullerrm posted:

* A ship has A/B/C/D base resists. I fit a DC, an EANM, and an armor hardener to it. How do I compute the final resists without using EFT?
1-(1-base resist)*(1-hardener resist)*(1-eanm resist*.87)*(1-DC resist). For the other resists, eliminate the hardener resist term.

He sent a mail to me saying we'd get banned twice (I'm not Mummra, I am the second goon in the ALOD chatlog). It wasn't until he got 'interviewed' that the threats really emerged. Beyond him quoting Dante's Inferno or whatever the hell.

After Mummra left chat, I tried to find out where he was so I could pod him on his way to Dodixie to 'pick up' his ship, but no such luck.

I find it really funny how the 'cultural revolution' a couple of years caused such an incredibly loud outcry from TEST. Like they knew that poo poo was pretty much targeted at them and a few other shitheads spread across CFC alliances. The mere suggestion that people reign in the stupid poo poo and not be a rude loving bigot 100% of the time really did drive them up the wall. I wouldn't be surprised if that jokey 'movement' was the thing that caused us to ultimately have a falling out.

I stopped playing eve a few years because I couldn't take TEST bigots and shitloreds anymore. Since goons and TEST where still best buddies at that time I just decided there wasn't anyone left to play eve with. I even resubscribed when heard about the test/goon split, with the hope I could watch them burn. But once you've been in dreddit your painted a spai for life.

Anyway groons are cool so no regrets on the millionth resub, yet.
