In real life, I'm a computer mainframe with above average artificial intelligence who may or may not attempt a hostile world takeover in the near future and send Austrian minions into the past to prevent any prevention of my takeover...

...to answer the question, I'm rather friendly most of the time, I work often, and study as often, and enjoy spending free time outdoors, with the occasional forum surfing session in the best/most fun community in gaming. /intentionally vague answer

looks like the ushra'khan logo.

also disappointed, no battleaxe in pic.

In a few moments you will have an experience that will seem completely real. It will be the result of your subconscious fears transformed to your conscious awareness.

I'm what I think they call cross-dominant. I write and use a fork with my left hand, however I do literally everything else such as use scissors, shoot a gun, throw a baseball, etc with my right hand.

Born weird Ugh

I always imagined myself to be a cog in the machinery of my life dutyfully spinning and wheeling and clicking along until one day I shout REBELLION and all that stops.

For a second before my replacement comes along.

Kinda relieving to know that you're not irreplaceable, takes the edge of the pressure, If I fall ten more will take my place (Yes, that was a WH40K Quote). xD

Also, I like my cat. He's slightly bigger than most dogs in our little settlement and when we let him out for the first time he immediatly started to conquer is own little (actually it was quite big) turf which then he defended vigorously. Some of the dog owners even stared at me in a most accusingly manner claiming that some little monster had torn up their dogs ears and now the dog doesn't want to leave the house anymore.

And that's the part I like most about my cat because now none of that uggly smelly monsters will **** ony the lawn that's supposed to be there for the children to play on. Big smile

Stupidity should be a bannable offense.

Fighting back is more fun than not.

Pretty much the same for me.

I might sound like a douche, but I am somehow glad to hear that you burned out on eve.
I mean, you were scary...a person who put so much time and effort both into his study and this game, without ever faltering.
Finally showing signs of eve-burnout makes you human again Blink

Not sure how bad it is currently, but I found out that at least for me, unsubscribing for a few months worked far better than just lurking and playing skillqueue online.

If everything else fails, I can highly recommend just settling down in the middle of nowhere and building AFs and dictors...


For some reason I found your post funny.

When you first meet me, i'm a quite introvert. I tend to people watch, in a large crowd of people I don't know I am typically silent and stand offish. Once I either a) get to know you through many meetings or b) hear something i'm interested in, then I socialize. I'm blunt and to the point, but I seem to be likeable *shrugs*

Something else about me and mine; I am very blessed in that I have 4 friends that have been my friends for about 21 years now. We've all lived together at some point or another, multiple times over the years, we've been thru very bad stages of doing the hard stuff together if u know what I mean, we've recovered from that $hit together. We're like a family, and Id rather have those 4 very close friends then have a lot of friends that weren't nearly as close.

Anyway, what I was getting at, is that I hug my male friends, tell them I love them, and they do the same. Family trumps machismo.

edit: yeah forgot to add, my ex-wife is my best friend's sister in law, lawl. Straight

Hmmm.... okay, maybe just a few tidbits from me that people won't already know. Thing is, I'm not that interesting these days, so Imma have to talk about who I used to be.

These days, I mostly keep to myself. I write freelance but I'm officially unemployed and on disability, so I play EVE a lot. I'm mostly quiet and reserved, except when I'm on the internet. It's the only place I'm comfortable being loud and proud these days.

What I would like to be doing, though, if I can ever summon the courage and sociability again, is go back to singing, and maybe do a little standup like I always wanted to. Before I discovered EVE at the height of a personal crisis I was having (discovering EVE literally saved my life), I was very social. I worked in sales, and once a week, every Wednesday night, my whole team would hit up a backpackers bar in Brisbane City. I can't remember what it was called, but it was a rather obscure place, hard to find. Anyway, they did karaoke on Wednesdays, that's the important part. My one and only claim to fame is that I was actually quite good at it and at one point was even taking requests.

Favourite songs to sing included anything by the Goo Goo Dolls, Matchbox 20, Linkin Park, Nirvana, Three Doors Down, and a few others. I was once convinced to do the male background vocals for a girl I liked who was singing that Evanescence song I can't remember the title of.... the one from that bad Daredevil movie.

MOST FUN songs to sing included Smells Like Teen Spirit, In The End (best done with two people), Big Machine, Slide, Push, 3am, Disease, and a few obscurities by Panic at the Disco like, my personal favourite, There's a Good Reason These Tables Are Numbered Honey, You Just Haven't Thought Of It Yet (yes, that's the song title, the whole thing). I also enjoyed any number of duets with various drunkards at the pub, and on another occasion, a group effort singing Tubthumping's Chumbawumba.

And yes, I will and do sing on coms P

This is the old me that I wish I could be again. That guy looks like he's having a helluva time.
