Hi there, would you like to try some spicy products?
Hey space-friends, could someone kindly point me to the rough date when the siege "ended", or the rough beginning of the papi-collapse?
I'm bored and would love to read up on this thread from that point on.

Much obliged :shobon:

I mean, I've been on a few krabswarm fleets where the discussion kinda got chud-adjacent w/r/t politics from the FC, but otherwise they've been pretty chill. Haven't done them lately but I've been meaning to start back up (chadquals are expensive, yo)

krabswarm isk is great but taking an hour to form a fleet is dumb as loving poo poo and the only saving grace is you can use that hour to mute the dumbest of the krab brains.
They also come up with idiot ideas like trying to form a personal army during a war.

Jews fleeing the Holocaust are not in any way comparable to North Africans, who don't flee genocide but want to enjoy the social welfare systems of Northern Europe.

The collapse started on the evening of August 2nd, when during the ~final push~ PGL gave the order to unanchor keepstars. The big announcement was on July 24th, followed by a week of moveops and probing attack on Friday, that got derailed by a friendly Nyx (I believe it was Xtra_Squishy) warping into the gate-bubbles, dangling a shiny object in front of papi which they could not resist (Nyx survived ofc).

As for KRABSWARM - it's nice isk but the amount of krab brain is really hard to stomach.

I don't think there was really accurate and timely information they could have had, even if they were in the appropriate channels.

Trash Talk Tuesday was a pretty good stomping ground to troll mid-level PAPI FC's into making statements about 'what they're gonna do this week', only to have that not really work out how they wanted- to which, instead of taking any personal ownership for the failure to act, they'd just blame it on adhoc decentralized leadership. How they were so loving confident that they were going to win, I'll never understand.

How can 150,000 characters not win against a force a third of that, consisting mostly of krabs that will desert once PAPI reaches Delve? Imperium only has what, two, maybe three good FCs?

Once that dream didn't quite work out, what else are they going to do? They hate each other - more than they hate goons in some cases. I'm surprised that the infighting didn't start the downtime after the PAPI keepstars started unanchoring on the 2nd August.

It was not squishy. It was a UKC character by the name of Dai inafire. He whored the most kills that fight and was surprising calm in corp chat as it happened

If anything I was less calm than he was - until i realised he was 100% not gonna die because they were cowards who weren't going to commit to killing him and then my stress level dropped massively

If only we had some kind of no foot fetishists rule. That would solve so many loving problems.

I don't and will never -get- the foot fetish. There is nothing even remotely sexual about feet, especially big, musky, smelly ones that might taste good.

It's a brain wiring thing. The area of the brain the thinks about "sex" is right next to the same area of the brain that thinks about "feet" and sometimes these pathways cross.

Since we already play EVE Online, shouldn't we be more normalized towards brain damage?

so uh you know how dunk dinkle just posted that woe is me, nobody would tell brave what was going on

turns out that his idiot military director was in the top papi channel and just didn't bother to tell dunk, or to tell dunk the whole final battle thing was a scam while dunk was personally spending 200b on ships for it

and that is the much smaller of the two utterly hilarious things that just got leaked
