True. I probably shouldn't have included the last part but I also don't get why people get so worked up they're frothing at the mouth bitching and moaning about how another group does things differently.

Fanfest is still in Iceland. CCP took over running EVE Vegas which is usually in October. There's EVE Down Under which is ran by the bogan players.

This "feudal" thing you're harping on about only seems to be an issue to you and yours. Horde doesn't give a poo poo, mainly because they do their own thing on their own time. To say we don't care about them is hilarious and dumb. You're dumb. Stop it.

Yeah I can see the issue with some people viewing Horde as a "second tier" crew but in general that's just now how the relationship works out in practice. Lots of the PL guys like and hang out with the Horde guys but there's barriers in place to protect stuff for both groups because EVE is a game where if you're not careful you can get hosed. It's why a newbie in GSF won't be given POS passwords or supercap fleet pings, or whatever on their first day. Granted PL/PH do it differently but that's just a matter of GSF & PanFam having different methods to approach the same issue.

Ultimately who loving cares? It's a video game and if both Horde newbies are having fun and GSF newbies are having fun then both groups are doing a good job at what their trying to do.

Let's not forget that having Waffle/Horde services give you access to a broader range of poo poo to shoot at, and generally during times of relative peace- it's a whole fuckload easier to get a fight as a PL dude in a Waffle/Horde fleet than in a regular PL fleet (you get to circumvent that 'this idiot took the bait, cyno in 3... 2.. 1) which helps satisfy that dreaded ~activity requirement~.

Odd that it never became important enough for Grath to lose his poo poo all over them until they lost ISK and made the K:D ratio look bad though :v:

Pretty sure it was more about them doing stupid poo poo, and not so much as a K:D ratio thing.

There's always a back and forth with EU or US Timezone loving things up and preventing the other from having nice things.

Honestly the only reason I'm starting to strongly dislike PL is because of these dudes who paid $10 to come and effort post on SA all day. I'd be willing to bet a few of them aren't much liked on PL's forums either

But yeah the Reddit circlejerk is ridiculous, though Reddit loves to circlejerk about anything ranging from politics to phone brands so :v:

I wasn't around for the original stomping(s) of TEST but whatever you guys did it must have been glorious because they seem to be frothing at the mouth over the chance of payback. Seeing the sheer amount of salt on reddit is great, meanwhile I'm just happy to be flying in fleets and killing stuff for a change. We had a Caracal fleet yesterday of 160 odd goons in EUTZ that chewed up a PH Ferox fleet, good times.

We basically killed them so hard that they landed in faction warfare. Their war CEO is legitimately the most bitter man in eve. Literally every time he opens his mouth "bitter at goons" starts drooling out of his mouth and spilling onto his "I'm angry" big he got off etsy.

No one in PL cares about KDR, which ours is probably poo poo anyways because of the bling we fly. Grath is also the dude who flies pimp for marauders around for the lulz so I'm pretty sure you're drawing the wrong conclusions there guy, which is stunning considering Grath spelled it out in plain English.
