Widestancer, apropos of nothing, how can I get a job as a pipeline analyst, as it seems to leave you with a metric fuckload of free time?

Get a certificate in ESRI and SAP software then get a job where your boss is okay with you using the Internet for personal stuff as long as you get your work done.

As some one who uses ESRI software on a regular basis, gently caress ESRI.

I think that too but gently caress Intergraph and Mapinfo way more

Warning: incoming quarterly j4g browbeating.
itsjustdrew, you had j4g written on your head the moment you first posted in this thread back when you registered, and haven't figured out what you're doing wrong in 5(?) months since.
Firstly, you never took the overwhelming amount of advice to go post elsewhere and become part of this community. Instead you just stayed in this thread trying to blend into the herd, only to poo poo up the last few pages trying to whine yourself into corp.
Secondly, you failed to read jack poo poo when you joined these here forums, making yourself the poster child j4g by not reading even a few pages back or the op to this thread.
And finally, you haven't bothered to learn by example from the several posters in this thread who themselves started as j4gs but weren't complete autists and figured out how to fit in around here. Really, some of the best posters in this thread :10bux:ed because of this thread and we don't hold it against them because they have proven they're not completely retarded.
You, on the other hand, just threw a whiney fit because you checked all of the boxes off to join Waffe without understanding the purpose of the checklist in the first place.
Go find something else outside of games to enjoy with your :10bux: investment and come back in 6 months. I bet with the changes in your posting style and actual understanding of the poeple you want to fly with, you'll fit right in. If yoy still even want to join Waffe at that point.

Did 4chan invade the thread or something? I've seen better posting from Jack Gates.

Everyone else here is being pretty helpful, not sure what's bothering you?

Otacon posted:

Serious tip, Read Sun Tzu's "Art of War" and it'll teach you pretty much everything you need to know about EVE.

EDIT: Also, spend at least a day or two on the tutorial missions - theres like 5 of them, with lots of important text to read and remember, and each tutorial should take you about an hour to complete. Once you complete the tutorials you're still absolutely lost, but at least you know how to undock a ship.

We'll definitely do the tutorial missions; good to know they're not useless like the ones in Planetside 2

This is almost as good as the time Widestancer poked the Dota 2 thread and it ended up with the Dota 2 thread invading the imp zone and spreading the plague of dotachat.

There was a Dota thread there way before I ever did that. Glad to see you're still salty all this time though.

Not exactly. They decided that unless the game has a specific subforum every game gets a singular thread. It was a sweeping change for all of the games in MMO HMO.

Kewpuh and Zoolooman also recently said that the Dota people make more reports than all the others by far. You guys are better than that.

Except for Voyager I obviously who just outed himself as a really salty Dota player.

You wander around the games forums trying to make threads about you and also aren't funny in doing so, so no, I don't particularly care for you.

Getting Bagu to flip out was pretty funny though, I'll give you that.

The star citizen thread is/was really lovely and if you're complaining about the loss of quality in it I don't know what to tell you; the Dota Thread was simply me asking them why they generate more reports than any other thread. The Archeage thread involved outing a pedophile and his apologists so I guess if you consider that a bad thing that says a lot about you?

And here Worst Forums Guy and I are simply asking how to play this game together. Other people have been really helpful, not sure how asking for help and talking about a game are making a thread all about me it seems like you have an obsession and it's kinda weird I guess.
