Crime & Punishment

People like you wanna make me rip my hair chest out and scream
STUPID STUPID STUPID SO INCREDIBLY DUMB AND IDIOTICALLY STUPID WITH NO UNDERSTANDING OF LOGIC WHAT SO EVER.

Now you listen to me, you less-intelligent-I-have-no-idea-how-you-survive being.
Highsec incursions in comparison to nullsec/lowsec incursions will earn you a lot less isk.
So highsec incursions are LESS profitable than nullsec/lowsec incursions (do you get it now?).
So yes, my incredibly illogical friend, highsec incursions don't make much isk IN ******* COMPARISON TO NULLSEC AND LOWSEC INCURSIONS LIKE I WROTE IN MY POST.

Highsec incursions in general generate 30-40 billion isk an hour, an estimate that I calculated depending on different variables (not per person, but in total for a hypothetical 3 highsec incursion scenario).

In your quote you imply that my statement is illogical. It is not and I should not be to blame for your brain's inability to understand arguments.

PS: If you simply misread or misunderstood the post, fine ... I'll say sorry for the above rant ^ on your person. But seriously, don't even attempt to discuss with people if you really fail at that or at least ask me to elaborate.

Ammzi, my complaint against them isn't as much the isk they make, but the isk they make compared to the risk to the pilot/ship. Until we came along, that is. :P

Although that's really a discussion best had in one of the other sub-forums.

Speaking of money, we hit just a hair short of 40b killed last night. I was originally gunning for 60b killed in a week, but I think we're going to well exceed that. I wish there was an emoticon that let me properly express my feelings about that. Is there an overjoyed emoticon?

Of course we ransom most the incursioners we catch, but very few actualy pay us to let them go, a few have payed tho and they have been allowed to warp away.

Well they wernt Spelunkers so not sure why they would have brought rope, care to elaborate?

Ah sorry I knew my terible spelling skills would come back to bite me, i saw it was misspelled later but didnt want to edit for one word. Well played good sir

Gaz will keep you quite busy.

Andrei, are you defending Gaz's posting, really?

edit: we love you, Gaz.

This is a much stronger argumentative stance than that of Barakkus, and as far as I can tell the only use of payed that isn't an irregular verb; however, it's irksome to see people on the internet arguing points that cannot stand on their own feet. Using an irregular form of a verb is not the same as misspelling that verb. If you want to play grammar/spelling Nazi (fan of WW2 Germany, for the filter), at least read a book first.

To close my case, I will simply side with Henry Fielding:

"In reality, the world have payed too great a compliment to critics, and have imagined them men of much greater profundity than they really are."

If you don't like Gaz's use of payed, or my defense of it, take it up with the great English novelist... Oh, and don't be so quick to blame the Americans, eh?

[edit for Cerisia]

Apparently, if enough Americans mis-spell a word, it becomes a correct variant spelling.

I think I'll stick to speaking English.

The word is 'paid'.

I'm gonna go ahead and call this one a flat out troll.

The word is 'misspell.' (Also, the period goes inside the quotes.) Additionally, I presented a great Eton educated chap who made use of this 'correct variant spelling' long before any of these fellows came along.

I guess that means I did let you troll me, though, so good on that.

Seriously though, why has our glorious grief thread become the place for people to illustrate their inability to criticize a perfectly acceptable usage of English language? Back to the Incursion griefing, and that's where I'll be...
