I emailed the newbies email to see if there is a chance of me getting back in after my previous forums drunk posting spree and subsequent dismissal

Fingers crossed :pray:

Edit: I just checked my API and it looks like I have around 400mil ISK and 60mil SP so I should be able to have a load of fun.

How much is plex going for right now?

I'm back baby :getin:

Now what the gently caress has changed in the last two years, ship wise? I heard there were new T3s, so I'm sure there are other fun and exciting things like Jita no longer being a trade hub or something.

What's good and cheap to rat in so I can hopefully plex and not let my wife know I'm playing another mmo uh not give CCP real money after my initial resub fee

Wasn't a big reason for the lack of Megas in play due to most people shooting for Amarr BS V for their Archon over Gallente BS V because the only people that flew gallente carriers were huge PvE nerds or something along those lines?

I definitely remember there being a lot of stigma around flying Gallente poo poo for whatever reason. Then the Ishtar's potential was realized and from there everyone didn't want to bother with it more than cruiser V since they didn't want to have to train large guns when they already had lasers and missiles which worked great for some of the Caldari/Amarr crossover stuff

I don't really care to hate PL when they just do their own thing and generally don't sperg out in local of spray poo poo all over the forums. The people I don't like are the retards in TEST and NC. who think this war is some great moral crusade to save eve online from the evil goon.

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:

In the absence of the CFC having a name it seems fairly obvious that CCP are gonna refer to the name the most active community has come up with. I'm sure that once you decide to start calling this shindig something other than "the war" then CCP'll mention it in a post too. You guys get up in arms over the weirdest stuff.

World war goon would have been better imo but my opinions are really bad

Rolling back Fozzie sov and letting us use supers/caps without being sodomized by the fatigue mushrooms would bring back more people.

And yes the World War Bee thing annoys me, and I agree we get pissy about wierd stuff. But EVE is real and stuff.

Yeah I'm split on that

On one hand, it makes ratting a whole lot easier because you're not going to get dropped, and you can't fly from delve to VFK in 20 minutes like you used to be able to do

But on the other hand the exponential time increase is terrible and they really should have just made it so you need more fuel and more jumps

I don't understand this, there's not a single mechanics or scenario question on there. Most of their interview process is "are you active?" "are you a shitler?" and "do you have someone who knows you better than I do, who can verify that you are not a shitler?"

Literally any other PVP org out there asks stupid questions like "If you had A as your ship, and wanted to (accomplish impossible task), how would you do it?" and then you are subjectively graded based on how stupid your answer is, and or how retarded your interviewer is, people are human after all, except for Flanders, who is a walking PVP encyclopedia.

Based on some of the sigs on your forums containing the word "human being" my guess is you guys have a very different definition of what a "shitler" is

Edit: lol then one of you just used "fag" in a post itt

Not in PL, never been in PL, nor Snigg or anything else that tracks killboard activity, because I am way too inactive to expend the effort to put up some retarded amount of kills to prove I play EVE. Looking at my killboard, I have a whopping 310 or so PVP kills since 2011. I do like to take multi-year sabbaticals from EVE though, so that may be a part of that problem.

Speaking of which, I unsubbed again, maybe I'll get back into it once I'm not living in AUTZ. Years of having little to 0 activity in my TZ has soured me on EVE and it's gonna take a lot to break that.
Yeah, that was my bad :shobon:

Tokyo Sexwhale posted:

We have people ITT and in Goonwaffe who use the term "Jewing". Getting on people for using homophobic slurs when ironic racism is a thing is a bit of a pot and kettle scenario.

That was weird to see itt and the only reason I didn't report it was because I can't. Someone actually got probed for using it recently though so I would hope that it dies out.

The way it was when I quit a few years ago was that people still used those terms but they were usually shamed for it and sometimes set to read only. I guess it's different now though and I do post way too much LF stuff so it's probably me just being over sensitive but I would love to think that goons at least had higher posting standards than that :saddowns:

Yeah but I can't imagine they've gotten much better than what they were 2 years ago. I mean with our size it's obvious that we have to rely on stable, older software until something good comes out, it's just a matter of when is it going to come out and how can we implement it.

Reminder that a shitload of people are currently still in school and cannot commit to several hours a night playing video games when finals (at least for me) finish in two weeks. If not for that I would be on every night, as would a lot of other people.
