I like to think of white knights as honorable space samurai who live by the space bushido code. They live to fight the villainy that is code and free the people of the land from their awful oppressive ways.

What are you drinking?? smoking?? Injecting??? Roll

No, no. Siegfried isn't wrong. But he isn't entirely right, either. You see, you also have your bronze knights, and your black knights. The bronze knights are the toxic ones. Ask JTClone Ares about 'Bronze Knights', as he actually coined the term. The 'white knights', on the other hand, are just as Siegfried described. The 'black knights', however, are the loose cannons of EVE. The black knights are misfit pilots who go their own way and make their own plans. The black knight is exceptionally clever, and they have often been compared to one of nature's most elusive predators; the fisherman spider.

J en Marland is also about the only AGer who actually _does_ anything.

I get the impression the OP is embarking on some fresh solar spymaster hilarity.

What the.... Did he really just make a *** reference? You sir, are grossly misinformed. I had to read it twice just to make sure the ridiculous banter I read was actually what he typed..sure enough.

White knights is a medieval reference to white\black knights..as mentioned in previous comments. Surely you don't really believe what you wrote....or are you trying to troll your way into some kind of code discourse and paranoia....gl with that. Apparently you have no real idea how entities such as code work. I did find your post mildly entertaining. +1 for writing something actually shocking..even if it was ludicrous. Twisted

If I had a nickel for every time someone said women don't play eve, I'd have a bag of nickels to whack the next person who said it..

If you're talking about Jennifer en Marland (or however her name is spelled) -- after having a side conversation with her about the same idea (where I could finally get the whole point out, without some moron interjecting), she was more receptive ... or at least gave me that impression. In other side conversations, she has commented that [event|commentary|etc] by [banned person] was not "as cut and dry as she was led to believe" (paraphrased, anyway).

I think a lot of her brusqueness in the AG channel itself is due to it being not much more than an echo chamber ... and **** storms cropping up every time someone says something that's not in exact lock-step with what other players believe (e.g. "Mining is not PvP" or "You cannot own a hisec system" or "Hey, how about, I dunno, ganking the Orca/Bowhead that's dropping the catalysts for boomerang-ganks ... or just stealing the cats themselves...")

Jennifer is one of the biggest culprits with regard to shitstorms over people not towing the party line word for word. He's almost fanatical in a scary European nanny state kind of way. He's also a major part of the reason why the channel is an echo chamber, along with Sarah and a few others.

No, your rights end in optimal+2*falloff
