REMEMBER THE MAINE
As these 2 'news' sites start really sniping at each other getting more heated at what point will we see a manufatured war rivaling the Spainish-American War or see a gulf of Tonkin incident occurring? ( not that its necessrily a bad thing since it'd be content creation TwistedEvil )
Could we really see an insidius Mittani say sinking a neutral ship or a nerarius Riverini hyping a non blue explosion either screaming a slogan "REMEMBER THE MAINE" with thier websites slogan?

The accumulated filth of all their sex and murder will foam up about their waists and all the JOURNALISTS, ho's and politicians will look up and shout 'Save us!' and I'll look down, and whisper 'Hodor'.

EN24 is run by a person who so wants to be a relevant its actually quite painful, its like a road accident that you just can't take your eyes off.

TMDC is just Eve's version of Fox News

The Mittani is Rupert Murdoch to Riverini's Robert Maxwell, I expect the outcome will be similar as well.

Why would an adfarm go to war against a multi-game fan/newssite, or vice versa?

I used to get all of my deployment orders off Eve24. Oddly intel leaks made it to the masses faster than alliance orders. Such was life in -A-.

There is no war. en24 doesnt do any kind of journalism, reporting or investigation. It justs reposts player and dev blogs.

TMC is the only EVE news site.

Riverini is going to raid the EN24 staff pension fund to keep the site afloat?

Well I'd about expect the likelyhood of TMDC's domain to shut down due to someone forgetting to pay the bill: so give it even odds Big smile

I don't get it, is EVE being ~too real~?

I wasn't there.

What a terrible thread. GD's quality has really tanked over the last few months.
