In my relatively brief time playing this game I've come across many humorous nicknames for things in EVE. We could also use some new ones, since calling things by their actual names makes this game too accessible which is totally against the spirit of EVE.

Current - "Poz a neg hole" (Settle an unoccupied wormhole)

"Pubbie" (Non-Goonwaffe Member)

'X' is haram" (outside of the ship doctrine of an alliance)

"X' is halal" (reimbursable and within the ship doctrine

Please refrain from using offensive language. Thank you. -ISD Dorrim Barstorlode

IB4L ---- That's my favorite EVE saying.

Now get out. Seriously. Get out.

Thought I'd better quote it in case you decide to change it.

Your life is a typo.

That's odd. Those normally go hand in hand. No 'or' needed.
