The only thing worse than the poo poo posts are the heinous gently caress heads that think they have any sort of tenuous grasp on quality posting.

I'm pretty sure everyone knew about the dread cache, but the thing that likely hosed Kismeteer over was GSOL dudes being forced to do audits of all of our hangars of poo poo in every station, because Kismeteer said "Oh boy if I wanted to I could steal a lot of poo poo!".

You don't do that poo poo during a war where everything is burning down and your logistics dudes are already at wits end. Adding additional work to them could make one snap and just start dumping hangars and wallets.

Sounds like the perfect time to verify poo poo can't be stolen, tbh.

Few pages ago, but a long long time ago when I used to live in Dek, and hang in theta comms I always thought you were the most insufferable high-on-his-farts arrogant theta nerd.

Your edit would be right, if it weren't for the fact that having people use APIs to join is a recurring topic every few months in the director chat. The discussion usually ends up the same way, the majority new players don't want to make APIs to get into their first in-game corp. That's a behavior we've tracked over the year plus and keep tabs on.

Serious question: do new players still gently caress it up if you give them a predefined API?

Dalael: Oct 14, 2014; Hello. Yep, I still think Atlantis is Bolivia, yep, I'm still a giant idiot, yep, I'm still a huge racist. Some things never change!

https://www.reddit.com/r/Eve/comments/4f1r8t/remember_me_goons_let_me_remind_you_about_the/

quote:

*Systematically dismantled our leadership.
*Annexed our space.
*Awoxxed our spacefriends.
*Built dossiers on all of our pilots, great and small.
*You got your whole coalition to follow us into the desert.
Worst of all, you spread dissent about false promises and destabilised the AUTZ in TEST that I play in.
For this, I am ensuring you pay for these crimes with the utter devastation of your assets and sovereignty in NZ/AUTZ. You have lost members of your coalition, now goose-stepping out of the way. You have lost 386 billion alone on Saturday (16th April) AUTZ with the loss of 2 Supers, 1 Revenant, 1 Titan in build + 1 Erebus in combat. You only brought 14 Triage carriers to a fight where a good portion where not in fit range of each other. You only formed 7 Caracals in the hopes of defeating a 130 man Cerb fleet fielded by TEST. You get farmed on the undock of your staging system.
You are uncoordinated. Slow. Dim-witted. Worst of all, you are arrogant to think you can win this - Arrogant that our attention span is shorter than the latest rounds of sovwoxers discovered in Coalition ranks. You are wrong on every count of lies levied against the MBC.
You can't form up subcaps in AUTZ now and are effectively powerless without a USTZ FC. Your Australian Timezone has lost its independence and become a shadow of itself. There is nothing left of it bar some small amount of defenders. Yet you put your faith in something that doesn't exist because you neglected its very existence. Are you mad? Or is it a sign you have given up on even your own people?
To the Mittani. You are unfit to command your Coalition. You have gone mad with the power that was given to you. Power that should be wielded by someone else far. The information you disseminate to those who follow you misleads them into defeat. You try to lead real world journalists on with lies and figments of your imagination and are caught out by your hubris. You threaten those who put their life into the development of the game so that your will is made manifest. You are nothing but pathetic to those external to your organisation. You are a harpy that needs to be put out of its misery. You are the physical being of familial disappointment and deprecated strategy.
To those seeking the light of a better tomorrow, join the members of the Money Badger Coalition. We will get you out and you, like many in TEST, can achieve that same revenge on those that manipulated and coerced you to do things you didn't agree to ethically and morally.

lol

For Horde? Sometimes, but we usually then explain to them how to give us the full API etc.

Edit - I mean we have pretty clear details on how to set up your forum account not only in-game but on the forums itself and, well, there are still people who find ways to gently caress that up.

I ripped the audio for that talking in stations episode and I'll save it for when I need the satisfaction. At 6:50 Killah Bee stops himself from admitting just how poo poo their gameplay is while talking about the state of the war. Either that or you're listening to him catch his own cognitive dissonance, I can't tell. He spends a minute to say there haven't been engagements since M-0 and UQ9, and PGL chimes in to say there wasn't an engagement at UQ9 either. Then Killah B interrupts himself:

Killah Bee: "Those were like major battles and since then it's been basically just pushing and hunting it's more it's like less a... you know... front-on-front war at this point uh it's like more... like... we as PL are just having the time of our lives right trying to like catching all these supers and titans and caps trying to escape out of the north it's great it's just awesome"

In fact, undocking is easy thanks to insta warp. Its the docking back up that's a bitch. I lost 2 interceptors and 2 pods because those drat svipul can lock and blow you up between the time you get out of warp and get accepted in the station. :psyboom:

Try setting it as the destination and while you are in warp click autopilot and it *should* auto-dock you

This is not fool-proof. Try getting an instadock on the other side of the station well within the docking ring to perhaps stay further away from the svipuls. Also, make sure you hit ap after you've fully entered warp, otherwise you'll land 15km off.
