I wonder if this sad case would find "Occidental Petroleum" to be a "racist" corporation name.
It's basically the same us/them separation as the romantic Orient (only it's the “us” side), and it's not much of a stretch to see the choice of name as a result of the age in which the company was founded…

…but the real issue is, of course, how easily vandalised the name is. Blink

This good space pilot nailed it.

On a serious note; I made a weird Thorax kill a few weeks ago with shield -and- armor tank, some faction mods here and there, and no guns. Apparently he came out of a wormhole and his entire corp is japanese.

Just asking if anyone has seen an influx in the amount of Japanese players in our community. The press release says there are 10s of 1000s of new players and if so I think we should say hi. I just cant find any of them.


I suspect the first time you find some will be when they are invading your soon to be former home and destroying your assets with determined efficiency.

I doubt you'll be in any mood to wave and say hi as your pod is vaporized.

Mr Epeen Cool



I worry more about a potential Korean influx Lol


Ugh...while I would enjoy more people playing eve...I am tired of losing to them enough in Starcraft 2, I don't need them killing me in eve as well lol

This thread is giving me deja vu. I have been here before. And heard the very same pathetic jokes about anime, sushi, godzilla, massage, etc.
