I have been playing eve online under wine cince way back in 2008 and its slightly more cumersome that windows,

But i have never had to reinstall the system.
I have upgdared the hardware and changed Lpatop 3 times and just moved everything over and its working - still.

So no - it dont suck - but you have to know a bit more than just installt under windows - agreed.

Congratulating on trolling the most troll proof community on eveo!

Next up, why don't you go on COAD and tell Goons to stop playing.

The Goons suck at Eve. They are winning Eve. So by that logic you should use Linux for the win!

Never not use Linux! There are quite a few goons using it. We even have GTS working on Linux. Jabber and mumble also work. and EFT works fine in WINE.

Reality here: Windows is very good at playing games. Linux is capable, and when the steambox finally reaches reality, it's going to be a lot easier. And at some point, because of Microsoft's pressure, Google is going to release their own Linux distribution. This is pretty much going to happen at some point. When that does, we'll be ahead of the curve.

In the meantime, if you use Linux as a desktop, and have a decent video card, you too can play Eve on Linux.

Yeah... I think I've seen him once coming into the Linux channel to say the same thing. Probably he doesn't have what it take to use a more sophisticated operative system.

This is.......What........I mean........eh.....really?!?

Well, in that case, thread locked.

The Rules:
5. Trolling is prohibited.

Trolling is a defined as a post that is deliberately designed for the purpose of angering and insulting other players in an attempt to incite retaliation or an emotional response. Posts of this nature are disruptive, often abusive and do not contribute to the sense of community that CCP promote.


route rule 66. April 1st jokes and CCL.

If April 1st jokes involve threads being started on the forum, CCL reserves the right to lock them for any reason whatsoever.
The only exception is when the April 1st joke in question makes at least one member of the ISD CCL division online at that time laugh out loud. In that case the thread will only get locked if in violation with forum rules 1 to 34.
