EVE General Discussion

Well.... if you're offering...

I'm a nice guy.
Not like the others at all :p

Can I have your stuff?

:)

That was directed at the thread title you clown.
At least I hope it was.

Take a deep, deep breath and reeeeelax.


Lets start at the start; it's the internet. This place isn't that different from a hundred thousand other forums across the internet, each with their own customs, cultures and general butt fuckery. Everyone's best bet when dealing with such entities is learning the invisible rules which run such places, and try to avoid the faux pas which will end up with people trolling the bejesus out of you.

Secondly. Trolls - in ye olde days they used to live under bridges, eating billy goats and occasionally getting their arses handed to them by over zealous D&D players. Now they thrive on the brittle shelled newbies, who either haven't learned the rules, or just open themselves up to the sorts of broadsides which would leave Battleships feeling insecure. You have one of three choices here:

1. Ignore it.
2. Feed them. Grow them. Then laugh maniacally as you loose them onto the next wave of newbies.
3. Avoid attracting them in the first place.

Thirdly. People use Eve to blow off steam and get a giggle. Most people are relatively nice and polite, even when killing you in-game. The forum tends to be a much harsher place, but that's because the veterans have seen it all and can spot a stupid post/question/circle jerk a mile away. They could be nice and polite, but there's been so many idiots posting, that it's far easier to let people be idiots, rather then trying to be nice and hitting their heads against brick walls.

Fourthly, the post you made is going to attract flack like a WW2 bomber.

Oh, and I like making lists... I think. Sticking to them is another matter entirely.

Had a guy claim the lowsec system we killed him in was his. Needless to say, it didn't intimidate us.

Edit: And really, a lot of what the hisec wardec crews say is just to get you to undock in your deadspace pirate bs and "show them". Only way to get some people to undock is to rant about tears and mothers.

You said twit. I hate that word so much you wouldn't believe it. Get in the dustbin please.

Is he speaking prose?


Did OP lose a :gudfight:?


Trolls will fill this thread.

I'm not sure what to say so I'm offering the OP a big manly hug and one of those shoulder grabbing gestures to convey that life isn't so bad.

Trolling is an art.
OP is a shiptoaster.
Silence, and be gone.

OP, you have lost.
Your temper absconds with sense.
Can I have your stuff?

GD is anger.
OP is always failure,
Ignore, and be wise.

If you find that childish,
YOU SHOULD READ WHAT THE TYPICAL CAREBEAR SAYS !
