if I was logged into jita and had a character with isk in the wallet I probably would have just bought a CNR for you. I'm in a good mood, but still too lazy to do that.

Seeing more bittervets in this thread has emboldened me to thus add to my earlier post:

My first 2 CNRs were given to me by CCP for participating in the final four of AT3 or AT4 and they will aaaaaaalways be CNRs P

(they were a bill each back then and at that time a bill was still a bill...not like today when the rigs on rifters cost a bill... I feel like a walking mothball).

A CNR is a CNR. I don't care what all these uppity kids want to call it...

EDIT: Crap ... guess that was kinda a necro. Forgot I was going through old stuff.

The irony of a futuristic game where a huge portion of the game playing base can evolve as the game evolves kills me.

+1 for RNI

Yawn,  I'm right as usual. The predictability kinda gets boring really.

Acronyms used extensively over time can assume the characteristics of a name. When the original name changes the acronym changes but the old acronym, which in the mean time has become a name all of its own, has no reason to and no intention of changing.

If they drastically change the characteristics of the ship then I will also start calling it an R.N.I. and with time perhaps RNI. In the mean time its plain and simple its still a CNR...

Every time I see "RNI", I think "Rattlesnake Navy Issue".

Because lets face it, you just know the Caldari have captured a few Rattlesnakes and modified them...

I didn't even notice they had changed the name of it until seeing this thread.

People call it the CNR because that is what it was called for years. Its like that old guy "Richard" downtown. Everyone has been calling him **** since he was a young boy, now he wants everyone to call him Richard, but most people still call him ****.

The Caldari Navy Raven "CNR" has been a very popular ship[ for a very long time. For a long time there was two faction Ravens in the faction battleships list, now the "RSI" Raven State Issue has been moved to the special edition ships category, not that I ever actually saw one in game, but it does exist.

When I see RNI I think OH, did they add a new ship? Oh no, they just changed the name of the CNR to RNI to keep it consistent with other ships. Not a big deal to anyone, most real EVE players will always know exactly what you are talking about when you say CNR.

Seriously though, insulting other players for calling the CNR a CNR just because the name has recently been changed to CNI is pathetic. If you want to complain about such stupid BULLSHlT go to general discussion where that crap belongs.

P.S. WOW, Good thing my name isn't **** or I would be very upset with CCP censoring it.
