Pod pilots are lacking bulk, they don't look intimidating at all, also why can't we have long beards like this beards

EVE players come in all shapes and sizes.

See Bio for isk doubling rules. If you didn't read bio, chances are you funded those who did.

Possible reasons immediately evident:

  1. our clones are constructed from spam (fact). Spam can't lift weights

  2. there's insufficient room in either a pod or cloning vat to include a gym

  3. budget cuts in the cloning facilities have resulted in rationing of food. Nutrients supplied through tubes aren't sufficient to build bulk

  4. prior to becoming capsuleers we were all accountants

Bulk....pfft I prefer being like I am lean, muscular and hard as a coffin nail.

Though having a beard that would let me pass myself off as a member of ZZ Top would be cool, as long as I could get the sunglasses too.

Sunglasses. If CCP did that they'd see them as popular, so they'd be about 8000 AUR.

Then, because EvE is real, they'd have to include coding so you lose them at random every now and then and go on a mission turning your CQ upside down to find them again, only to lose them a couple of days later.

Explain to me how being able to lift heavy objects in short bursts is advantageous to the pilot of a starship?

Answer: Its not.

PS: Id have a beard but washing the capsule goo out of my moustache is trouble enough.

If he has a muscular physique in game, then he has a muscular figure irl.

OH,I see.

And there I was thinking it was just a guy upset that the ladies don't care/notice he spends his free time lifting heavy objects, rather than become fabulously e-rich in EVE.

Beards, like capes and fancy top hats, have been banned for safety reasons for use in a capsule for several centuries at least.

In general they need to just loosen up some of the clothing restrictions, imo, and add a few new things (more often than Christmas, which was still nice)

Long have I dreamed of having an alliance full of my own alts with kilts and black hooded cloaks. "The Kilted Ones."

"Verily, I have often laughed at the weaklings who thought themselves good because they had no claws."

One of ours, ten of theirs.

Best Meltdown Ever.
