I do so love watching these new capsuleers immediately marginalize themselves in the community.

Although not directed at me, it's time to get mah racist awn *cracks knuckles*.

Ah Gallente, what can one say about these peace loving democratic citizens? To start with, you bunch of hippie ass, flower wearing, namby pamby, airy fairy, petal farting morons couldn't organise your way out of a paper bag with a Phoenix and enough explosives to level a planet, let alone set up your own station!

God forbid you might have a terribly ugly station floating above your "precious" little dustball, mucking up your nice views of space, I mean, just think of all the harm it would do with all that infrastructure, trading, and many other horrible economy stimulating functions that all these awful stations have!

As for your gravitational issues, any Caldari child could set up a decent gravitational computation to keep your little station floating about your ugly ass hunk of dirt before they learned to crawl! I guess your engineers are too busy playing in the flowers and dancing with the fairies to actually be useful!

Oh hai! You must be new to the Intergalactic Summit. Let me give you some pointers on a few key famous persons you will meet:

There's Miss Kim, and she is Caldari. No other descriptors required! She fights for the State and made her personal goal to see the Federation destroyed. She is quite popular because of that!

There's Mister Anslo and he's a reporter. That shoots people! He works for the Scope and does shady business. A very abrasive person to talk with!

Mister Yaken works for Mister Anslo and he's also a reporter. That shoots people! Notice the pattern? He's nicer than Mister Anslo and is also a proud Caldari, but less fervent than Miss Kim!

Miss Muck Racker is also a reporter. That actual reports things! Usually very silly and uncanny things, but things nontheles! Very reserved about her activities and pursuits.

Mister Nauplius is mean and likes to murder people. Minmatar mostly. He eats them too! I mean, he drinks them, with a straw! Did I mention he is mean? Actually he just wants a friend that believes in the same religion he does.

Miss Funk does the same things that Mister Nauplius does but is more reserved about it. As result, she is more popular!

There's this Cardinal person I don't really know who he is. He likes to banish people for reasons.

Lady Aspenstar is kind and friendly. And she's an Amarr devout that does good. Knows more than she shows.

Lord Draconis is a holder noble person that has huge estates and is very serious about business.

Mister Cane is an Angel! A bad one at that! Deal with caution!

Miss Mika is a doctor, a medic, and a logistics. She heals people and ships! She has a strange professional relationship with Miss Kim.

Mister Antoliere is a silly Gallente. He likes potatoes, frog legs and saying "oui, oui". He's also a stereotype.

Mister Stitcher is not a member of Sansha's Nation. I have no idea who started that rumor.

Mister Foley is strange and did some horrible things to a turkey once. He's also a Dust Bunny!

Mister Thal is a Templar and fights for the Amarr!

...

There are many others out there that you should definitely meet!

how many Caldari does it take to screw in a light bulb? despends on how high up the chain of command the order comes from.
How many Amarr does it take to screw in a light bulb? none, they have slaves for manual labour.
how many Minmatar does it take to screw in a light bulb? Whats a light bulb? out rust is luminescent....
how many Gallente does it take to screw in a light bulb? 881 to vote on the kind of bulb, and one to hold it up while the universe revolves around them.

Mademoiselle Hydreiga,

I am hardly famous and I'm not particularly fond of frog legs...

This was amusing, however. At least, in my opinion.

This can not go without a (reposted) response:

How many of us Caldari does it take to fix a spotlight?
Just one. We're efficient and not all that funny.

Alternatively, how many State Capsuleers does it take to change a lightbulb?

Such number as may be deemed to perform the stated task in a timely and efficient manner within the strictures of the following agreement:

Whereas the party of the first part, also known as “capsuleer,” and the party of the second part, also known as “Light Bulb,” do hereby and forthwith agree to a transaction wherein the party of the second part (Light Bulb) shall be removed from the current position as a result of failure to perform previously agreed-upon duties, i.e., the illumination of the area ranging from the front (north) door, through the entryway, terminating at an area just inside the primary living area, demarcated by the beginning of the carpet, any spillover illumination being at the option of the party of the second part (Light Bulb) and not required by the aforementioned agreement between the parties.

The aforementioned removal transaction shall include, but not be limited to, the following steps:

1.) The party of the first part (capsuleer) shall, with or without elevation, at his or her option, by means of a chair, stepstool, ladder, or any other means of elevation, grasp the party of the second part (Light Bulb) and rotate the party of the second part (Light Bulb) in a counterclockwise direction, said direction being non- negotiable. Said grasping and rotation of the party of the second part (Light Bulb) shall be undertaken by the party of the first part (capsuleer) with every reasonable caution by the party of the first part (capsuleer) to maintain the structural integrity of the party of the second part (Light Bulb), notwithstanding the aforementioned failure of the party of the second part (Light Bulb) to perform the aforementioned customary and agreed-upon duties. The foregoing notwithstanding, however, both parties stipulate that structural failure of the party of the second part (Light Bulb) may be incidental to the aforementioned failure to perform, and in such case the party of the first part (capsuleer) shall be held blameless for such structural failure insofar as this agreement is concerned so long as the non-negotiable directional codicil (counterclockwise) is observed by the party of the first part (capsuleer) throughout.

2.) Upon reaching a point where the party of the second part (Light Bulb) becomes separated from the party of the third part (“Receptacle”), the party of the first part (capsuleer) shall have the option of disposing of the party of the second part (Light Bulb) in a manner consistent with all applicable state, local, and federal statutes.

3.) Once separation and disposal have been achieved, the party of the first part (capsuleer) shall have the option of beginning installation of the party of the fourth part (“New Light Bulb”). This installation shall occur in a manner consistent with the reverse of the procedures described in Step 1 of this document, being careful to note that the rotation should occur in a clockwise direction, said direction also being non-negotiable.

NOTE: The above-described steps may be performed, at the option of the party of the first part (capsuleer), by said party of the first part (capsuleer), by his or her heirs and assigns, or by any and all persons authorized by him to do so, the objective being to produce a level of illumination in the immediate vicinity of the aforementioned front (north) door consistent with maximization of commerce and revenue for the party of the fifth part, also known as “The Corporation.”

Correction: without reasons.
And talking with such cardinal is the same as talking to a wall, that has bricks instead of brains.

Because this forum clearly lacked a thread for racist commentary and general ignorance.

Didn't the Federation move their capital world to Villore? Why not just bring up your complaints there?

A Minmatar warship is like a rusting Beetle with 500 horsepower Cardillac engines in the rear, armour plating bolted to chassis and a M2 Browning stuck on top.

Those vermin living on Caldari Prime have a multitude of station orbiting them, which, I have no problem with. However, I would like some on Gallente Prime. We own the system, we certainly own the planet, so why no stations to park my clone contract at, or to chill on my off days.

Just something I would like to know/ get a station built xD

More-or-less.

The legislative capitol of the Federation is on Villore. The Office of the President and the executive capitol of the Federation is on Ladistier. The Supreme Court is located on the judicial capitol of Parts.

Villore IV is generally recognized as the de facto capitol world of the Federation after it was moved away from Gallente Prime for security reasons.

The existence of three political homeworlds is meant to be a symbolic emphasis of the division of the branches of government and their separate, but equal, duties.

More to the point, however, is that her complaints shouldn't be taken to any of these places. If a station were to be constructed around Gallente Prime, it would be the purview of whatever corporation or executive administration was going to put forth the capital and labor to have it constructed; who, in turn, would seek approval for the construction contract through the local administrative authority of whatever system and/or planet it was to be constructed in.

A bit of research to contact the appropriate body would be necessary, not to mention the will to have a station built in the first place by an entity with the resources and permission to do so.

Lets bring Justice for Caldari Prime to Villore IV then.

What should we get on menu?
- Planetary bombing
- Occupation
- Dropping of titan
- Starting racist riots
- Defacing gallentean monuments
- Attacking gallentean citizens on Villore VI only because the are gallentean
- Beating protesting against racism gallenteans with police force...

But you know, on other hand, WE ARE NOT RACISTS AS GALLENTEANS. Lets just destroy Federation and won't let gallenteans ever do what they did to our Caldari Prime to any other planet.

(however, returning gallenteans all this menu could be... edifying)

This thread is a gem. A real gem. You don't find new, inspired racism like this every day. Between DK and Nauplius, classic racism was growing stale and overdone.
