Hi

My son made me a player in his game that he plays, and I said I want to look like Morgan Freeman, but I think I look more like Dave Chappelle as Prince

Hello.

I can see the Dave Chappelle in your appearance, but Morgan Freeman is capable of such wonders.

Also welcome, have a cookie and a Like. :3

He said space ships, and I see that I am in space, but my player seems more like a homeless Dave Chappelle... in space.

I don't see the homelessness factor. Where is the obligatory pit-bull ??

This is all very unexpected, I suppose it's the contrast to what I imagine Morgan Freeman would be like as an astronaut.

I was not aware our computer could do this. His mother and I became curious when he stopped playing his PS3, what could he be doing for hours on the computer? I've never seen him so focused on ONE THING.

I'm very curious about this game, I cannot express that enough.

OH! and I hear him talking with people who have accents from all over the world, I am incredibly intrigued by this.

Many of us here are members of the Council of the 300.

We get the videos early, we evaluate them, and if worthy allow others to get them on the internet.

Thank you.

I've discussed what I've found, with his mother and overall I'm very supportive of this activity. My first thought is what does it cost.

At my son's age, I recall mostly breaking into abandoned houses and drinking tap water when I needed it.

Yeah, that avatar does look like Chapelle as Prince. Or Chapelle as Rick James. +1, any friend of Chapelle is a friend of mine.

Game Tips:
-Careful saying anything in the General Discussions part of the forum. It's full of sarcastic ninnies and twits.
-For most people, the object of the game is to make lots of ISK. This What to Do in EVE Online chart shows the many ways you can do that.
-For some of us, though, the object of the game is to post ridiculous stuff here and see if we can get rewarded with a Like. It's a challenging sport-- each post must earn its Likes on its own merit. But of course, if you hang around a while, the regulars will Like even your lamest posts, just out of mercy. Smile
-A lot of us here are mature gamers. Maybe not mature in outlook, but definitely mature in years.

Welcome!

Welcome!



this is a pro tip if ever there was one ...STAY AWAY FROM GENERAL DISCUSSION .... you will walk out of there more confused than you did before you walk in .

hence the reason the more "mature" of us hang out in here ...I use that word very loosely though Big smileBear

because on occasion we do sometimes get a bit carried away Big smile

Hello Robert's Dad.

I like you.
Maybe it's because of your polite and nice introduction thread, maybe it's just because your avatar indeed looks a little like Morgan Freeman. Anyway, I read all your posts in Morgan Freeman's voice and it felt good.
So should you ever need our help with *parenting stuff* because your son does not pay his father the due respect, just drop us a line here, tell us his ingame name and we shall break him for you. Twisted

I'd like to apologize for the poor quality of the post above and sincerely hope you didn't waste your time reading it. Yes, I do feel bad about it.

I must say I'm more than a little comforted by the level of English used by the players who have responded to this thread (I'm going to use one of these smiley face emoticons i see here) Cool

So it is likely true, then, that he is not paying to play this game. As he does not have access to a credit card, I became slightly paranoid about that matter.

He will not tell me his character's name Lol I'm glad I feel comfortable enough to laugh about that now.

Do a lot of characters look like this, or is there a chance he trolled me http://25.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_ma7squotR91rabscko1_500.png
