Most all MMOs have a dwarves class. Given EvE is based on actual earth/humanity, where are the midgets? Dont tell me they didnt make it through the Eve gate way back when.

I knew it!!! Shocked

I always found the cockpits of their ships a bit cramped, now I know why.

There are no midgets in Eve because people would be trying to toss them and that's one more thing CCP gotta worry about.

Genetic deviancy is a luxury in a society that can clone people.

Yeah but we also have maimed, scarred and blind clones in Eve. What gives with that? Ugh

Just small men and big wimmin perhaps? It's still a bad question.

Genetic engineering has probably eliminated most of these disorders.

Mr. Guard is a legend. And physical attributes, (or the lack of them due to anything) don't affect Eve for anybody. Believe me or I will shoot you with blasters :)

Maybe we're all midgets, which then makes it impossible to tell.

There used to be midget characters in Eve but they had a very short run...

Can we be absolutely certain about this? What if we had the sort of thing mentioned in The Hitchhiker's Guide? Say that all this new stargate building business allowed Goonswarm to construct some kind of dimensional portal to what is our current reality. They jump a humongous invasion fleet through to this new universe, only to discover that the entire fleet is about the size of a chihuahua's nose and they are all wiped out by a frog's tongue as they make their way across a garden pond?

Ancient civilization of midgets similar to dwarves did in fact stay on earth and survived to third era, when they battled Sauron the Great.

Custom ship skins, character creator style "repaint". Bring it!
