Irony is, the MOA stats are actually very decent for some fits.

Sadly, the MOA has a face that only a mother could love -- after a pint, or three, of gin. Cry

I do not mind the Moa because the Caldari make two of the best looking Battleships, the Rokh (looks alot like the Sulaco) and the Scorpion.

Two of the defining characteristics of a carebear are wanting other players to play the way the carebear wants and whining on the forums for the game to change when they don't. Yet I see more threads on these forums from gankers than I do miners whining about wanting the game changed to suit them.

it has to at least be something you can describe.
the Moa, however, cannot be described.
The Moa is the rétarded offspring of a carnivorous plant and a one-eyed dianoga sewer monster. It can't decide which disturbing creation from the Botanica it is, but it sometimes passes for the Loch Ness Monster when it goes skinny dipping.

For Caldari flesh.

One thing at a time. There's a whole list of ships we can complain about, but we gotta start somewhere.

Here is the complete list of REALLY ugly ships in EVE:
*Armageddon
*Dominix
*Hyperion
*Typhoon
*Aeon
*Wyvern
*Revenant
*Blackbird
*Moa
*Exequror
*Thorax
*Bellicose
*Cormorant
*Catalyst
*Algos
*Naglfar
*Obelisk
*Bantam
*Griffin
*Condor
*Imicus
*Atron
*Probe
*Burst
*Velator
*Reaper
*Leviathan
*Ragnarok
not including tech 2 or faction variants with basically the same model, many limited edition or special issue ships, anything unavailable in-game, or bad strategic cruiser setups.

The Moa is different. It is special. It looks just fine as it is.

If there is anything that needs fixing, then it's that flying power drill.

Reasonable minds differ about the Rupture. Some say it's a power drill, some insist it's an outboard motor. The debate continues.

But many agree that the Moa is a dinosaur with a briefcase.

True story:

When I first started Eve, I was absolutely in love with that ugly little duckling. Then I found out it "didn't live up to my expectations". So I figured the T2 variant would have to be better, right?

As ugly as the moa is, I find the Osprey to be twice as hidious. I mean what are those little feeler things hanging off the front end like catfish whiskers??

I like ships that are unbalanced in their design. The new mini ships looks neat, but they lost some of that unbalanced pieces of stuff welded together at odd angles.

If you don't like the moa then don't fly it, but don't ruin it for the rest of us who don't want to fly space dildo number 36.
