Go on the test server, pull all of your unrelated skills for SP, type /mirror, inject the nevessary skills in (you can buy infinite skil extractors for free, you can Plex trial accounts on the test server for free too & multiacct them and make a huperskillfarm each time it gets mirrored if you really want since implants and training boosters are free) and practice with it to get used to what it can handle and how quickly it gets around, how to cyni etc - capships aren't fun to learn with live cuz if you make one mistake people will pop it &: that makes it scary to take chances & that's what makes em feel like a lovely burden, lose like 25 on test server and that'll go away

I gravitated towards the Greens, eventually even joining the party itself.

The Linke is a party I grudgingly accept exists, but I've learned enough about DDR-history I can't bring myself to trust a party that was once the SED, a party leading the corrupt state apparatus ...

I think Sisi was taken down well before the gate stuff? They didn't explain why, just that it would come back up, with no particular schedule, and now decided it won't come back up and will only be used for specific testing.

I know the fucker is permabanned and that's as it should be, but in case there's anyone left wondering:
The answer to this is preservation of the status quo and its interaction with the paradox of tolerance - and to top it off, it's older than almost anyone on this site, so there's basically no real excuse for not having heard of it.

I'm playing this game again. For the third or fourth time in my life I am doing low sec lv4 faction warfare mission running. There are better activities, but I always really wanted to get a stealth bomber set up to do it because it is neat.

Amarr used to have so much more volume! It's a pretty miserable backwater now. I played just during the citadel release, so before the path was cut off and during the transition to citadels eating up all the manufacturing/trade volume.

I pretty much only play this game solo because the thought of being social in a MMO is terrifying. But I wanted to say hi.

I never played before the disconnect between Caldari and Amarr space, but it has always struck me as a bizarre choice, both from a gameplay and a lore perspective.

It's as though the primary transportation link between London and Paris has become a haven for piracy, and the respective governments just shrug.

bodies die but voices last.
once were held within a cell,
your mind is where these voices dwell.

you can join a corp and be antisocial tbh

if nothing else it gets you a homebase and an intel network to play safer while solo

on the rare occasion i log into the game i do a lot of wormhole solo stuff and having pathfinder to scan/map out holes is absolutely invaluable, and just by being logged into it you generate a map of wormholes and their connections, for an example

The other day I thought I was station camped in Poch, docked back up and bemoaned my lot in local, saying I needed to join my friends to hunt some Frat, and then the guy outside the station wanted to join us instead, and we went roaming together.

you can actually inflate your scrote pretty safely with sterile saline, syringes, needles, and aseptic technique. its a niche kink iirc

the saline just slowly gets absorbed into your blood but in the meantime you got a big round smooth distended nutsack

I helped a cute newbie kill Kritsan Parthus and Dagan in the SoE epic arc when they shouted for help in local a few weeks ago.

It was a very wholesome interaction between strangers in an otherwise rather toxic game, but it sticks out for that reason. :3:

I met a SPORK guy doing amarr plexes, after it finished i dmed him “wanna do the other novice now?” And then we spent the rest of the evening grinding plexes. It was fun, even if we didn’t talk much it did take the edge off of the grind.

Stopped playing not long after, but i think i friended him so maybe we shall see each other again someday.
