Intergalactic Summit

This is what I'm talking about when I say they aren't human. Their concept of "compassion" is so alien it's literally unrecogniseable.

I didn't join the milita, so I'll bite and say yes.

I too am wondering why you're attempting to paint him as some form of psychotic Tibs. Bad Sansha! The man is fully capable of doing so himself, leave him his dignity at least... ah...

Anyway, there's a long distance between psychosis and delusion. The former implies some level of credible threat.

Did Uncle Kuvakei touch you in your special place as a child?


Jesting aside Dear Ixiris perhaps you both should start a new, special thread for the argument.

Or a duel. Or public debate! I'd love to moderate!

FOR PUBLIC DISSEMINATION. EFFECTIVE IMMEDIATELY:

Kōkako Acquisitions [KŌKAK] hereby EFFECTIVE UPON RELEASE of this document will reward any Capsuleer a sum of 10,000,000ISK (ten million) [from here on ‘PAYMENT] upon confirmed ship destruction or pod destruction of pilot 'Andreus Ixiris' [from here on ‘THE BOUNTY’]

Please be aware this offer is under effect of the following

STIPULATIONS:

KŌKAK note that eligibility of payment or PAYMENT granted may vary due to the following terms which are that

b) in the interest of reaching a broad scope of participants Caldari Militia pilots may only be eligible to a PAYMENT of 5,000,000ISK (five million) per claim and also that

c) a party may only be eligible to claim PAYMENT if they are able to prove that they dealt the 'killing blow' to THE BOUNTY via CONCORD kill logs and also that

d) PAYMENT may only be received if the estimated market value of the vessel lost under command of THE BOUNTY exceeds 13,000,000ISK (thirteen million) and that

e) KŌKAK may withhold PAYMENT under any circumstances in which foul play is suspected

LIMITS:

The maximum claimable amount is a pool of 500,000,000ISK (five hundred million)

There are no limits to the amount of times a pilot may claim PAYMENT unless in breach of the above STIPULATIONS

Thank you for the clarification, sir - perhaps my own brain trauma conflicts with my ability to think rationally on the subject. I'd be very pleased if you could go into more detail on the nature of their non-humanity, if possible, sir. Isomorphic brain structure is a particular field of interest of mine. Are you suggesting a simple drop in dimensionality, or a more subtle redirection?

Also - I have been called a cow a few times now. Is that a bad thing? They make milk, and people eat them for steak (poor things). Are they considered ignoble animals? I've looked at some pictures, and they seem rather majestic.



I have asked them on this point in the past. They do this because they consider Capsuleers to be a tremendous evil visited upon the Cluster for all of our wanton violence and tendency to degrade into dementia. They attack Capsuleers in order to discourage us from undocking. I don't think that they are achieving their goals, but the goal of reducing violence is noble - albeit hard to justify when one uses violence as the tool to do so.

Only five hundred million? Chump change, Quinzel. If you feel so strongly, in fact, why don't you come out here and fight me yourself, you bitter shrew?

Alright, CONCORD is also set up to do some good too so first off lets not compare all the bad of one side with all the good of another. The Empires think us DUST projects are crazy, not stupid.

Second, those charitable initiatives also help your Nation as well either in the fact of defeating death or at least looking like you are helping while forcing others to join against their will. No matter how much good you do, or think you are doing it is kind of hard to get past that little fact.

Second, Yes CONCORD can be full of crap but the underlying principle is needed because those small little orbital strikes would be a lot bigger without them. I've seen those strikes; they just punch a hole through a few buildings. It really isn't that serious.

"Even if its conscription happening, and I don't know if it is, it does mean after they can go home and think on their own. This means not networked, not forced to act again, yadda yadda.

It's a pool of six hundred million if you read.

You weren't worth any more, so yes, it's chump change.




Hence why I avoid it.
