So read about the situation on kotaku of all places, can you respec pilots yet? Waiting on support to find which of my many accounts holds my only remaining char with some SP.

Sort of. You can buy things called skill extractors which take up to 500k skillpoints out, and create a skill injector, you can then use that on your character and get up to 500k skillpoints to put into whatever skills you want.

There are diminishing returns, for example a new character can inject the full 500k skillpoints from the injector but a 50mil SP character using the same injector only gets 300k skillpoints out of the 500k to use.

Actually if this is our downfall then the reason would be that we broke our cardinal rule that fighting us should never be fun. We made fighting us incredibly fun. To the point where the rest of Eve has come for a slice.

You have to login and play EVE.

Most alliances have a culture where everyone bullshits in their jabber/IRC channel and waits for a few content creators to do alliance wide pings. This model is was very conducive to tower-sov and dominion-sov as sov fights were, for the most part, set-piece fights over one target that is on a timer. Aegis-sov does not conform to this. The best way to prevent your stuff getting reinforced is simply to be around and active in space, and the best way to win magic wand battles is to have multiple groups in coordination with each other across a constellation.

I have to say It's pretty poo poo that you can use small un-catchable ships to reinforce stuff. I'd love to see a change where only battlecruisers and bigger can fit entosis mods, because when you get an alert that something is being reinforced it is very much catchable. If you're going to reinforce something there should be a situation where you expect to get caught. The frigate and nano-cruiser meta right now means that it's so easy to slip past people to get to the target and so easy to run away that there is very little risk involved, it shouldn't be like that.

nano-cruisers are only low risk if the people you are fighting are only interested in ratting. if you piss off the wrong russians they will put 50k of bubbles on the gate and camp it with 20 dudes despite you safe logging. suddenly your 1b orthrus becomes a lot less cool.

A pretty likeable newbee got the plunger treatment for making fun of an annoying girl's annoying voice. It wasn't even meanspirited since he had just returned trip (iirc he was teaching people in third world countries how to raise bees) and had never even met her, but she just broke down in tears from being mocked instead of being put on a pedestal for having a vagina. Said girl then got whiteknighted by blawrf, who at the time was a nobody but had already got some notoriety for doxxing a kid (it was at this point that he started the diligent brownosing that looks like eventually got him to skymarshall).

Digi got involved, plungers and fines (that he really struggled to pay for since he was a newbee), and there were also accusations towards unrelated people by other goonfucking shitlords.

Actually, correction, I think I stopped logging in entirely when I saw blawrf became a director.

I don't give a gently caress. By all indications, the reason he left is because despite his years of brownosing, in the end he wasn't allowed into the coke snorting off vegas hookers inner circle. He wanted exclusive rights to takes mittens cock up his hairy welsh rear end.

My real grievance is with the culture that let this happen. And that poo poo came down from the top - a cultural revolution to purge actual goons, because all goonfleet is about is having obedient autistic drones.

If this is the incident I think it is (Theta squad?), then the incident had nothing to do with the girl's voice and more to do with the 'likeable newbie' facebook-stalking her.

If you want more specifics:

She posted a facebook picture of herself which some shitlord used to link back to her facebook. He was the unlikeable shitlord that deserved punishment (which admittedly he got).

However, a different newbee also got punished, and this was just for making fun of her voice. He had nothing to do with the above besides it happening around the same time. And, there were also accusations towards a third person that was even less involved - as in not even online when everything had been going on. Really. Theta squad was poo poo.

It could've perhaps been find if you considered it just an unfortunate application of the law as a crude cudgel rather than precision, but Digi was actually snooping around, and his determination was that the girl had to be protected because she [was autistic and] helped transport goods to a staging system. So despite being a think skinned pubbie, she was more valuable than a genuinely likeable guy plus she had someone who mittens knew the name of vouching for her.

She was trans, what? If she was, nobody knew, nobody cared. She got made fun of for a total of about two minutes? A minute maybe? Because her voice was annoying and she had the habit of coming in to dominate comms talking about how her day was.

"Why are you making fun of me? I don't know you?" She breaks down crying and leaves the channel.
