So the rumor, that needs to be expunged is this one going on about CCP owning a white board.

More to the point a word that is written on this 'alleged' whiteboard.

According to a "inside" source, the so called 'word' written on the 'alleged' whiteboard was "Corvettes"

These alleged 'Corvettes' according to the so-called "Wikipedia" are allegedly smaller than what unreliable sources call 'Frigates'

Please debunk this whiteboard myth.

Ordinarily your posting is at least somewhat entertaining, but this one falls well short of the line that demarcates the crap from the interesting.

I had hoped they would rename Rookie Ships Corvette's for a while because Rookie Ship sounds silly. I can not complain about a new ship class though.

What purpose would ships smaller than frigates serve? In my opinion, there's plenty of room for variation within existing ship sizes, no need to add more.

Why quote me? I never said I wanted a new ship class. I said I thought the Rookie Ships should be renamed Corvette but if CCP gives it to a new Ship type I would not complain.

By the way the purpose a ship smaller then a Frigate serves would be a Rookie Ship, hint, hint.

I suppose that the fighters carried by the supercarriers would technically be corvettes... maybe.

*grabs large stick*

Corvettes will be introduced in Dust 514 as a command craft that can be used to get Mercenaries into orbit, and into EVE proper.

Whilst Mercenaries won't be able to fly other ships, Corvettes will allow them to interact more closely with EVE players and eventually transport them to stations where EVE and Dust avatars can intermingle.

Lies, all lies.

"White" boards are a tool for people with no interior design instincts whatsoever and would never be seen inside our stylish offices.

Our boards are all "eggshell" and we are a much better company as a result.

I thought CCP head quarters was a cave in Iceland. Just to get out of the cold. You might find a fire near the entrance but no whiteboards in there.

That is why they rent servers in England. And have offices in other places that are not so much like Antarctica.Lol

Any spelling, grammatical and punctuation errors are because frankly, I don't care!!

Don't be silly, CCP HQ is a labyrinth floating in a volcano, built out of the bones of whales and all their fallen battle opponents. If you were to defeat the minotaur, CCP Guard (and no one ever has), you would have access to Tuxford's Red Button which lets you nerf everything everyone else is flying, and buff everything you fly.

Get your facts straight Blink

It's true. The current weather forecast should give you an idea of how bad it is. Last night they were warning about the possible frost bite you could get if you went outside without proper clothing.

Looks like a fictional weather forecast, seems way to cold for anywhere people live and it mentions snow, which I have never seen so must go in the same category as dragons, fairies and sea monsters.

Now I know places do get colder than that but why would people live there?

So best advice throw more fuel on the fire and go deeper into the cave.
